Description This drawing was done by EisChii , who is now no longer a Deviant Art, but made amazing manga drawings, and I feel like I sorta took her for granted when I asked her for requests of my character
If she ever reads this, I want to tell her; I hope you're doing okay





Background:

Despite Lord Thanot being the God of Death, he himself does not reap the souls of the living but maintains order in the Underworld. His servants are the Reapers, a race of spirit-harnessing entities whose purpose is to claim and recycle the souls of the dead. The Reapers can be seen as minor deities, as each one is responsible for taking the souls that relate to a certain means of death, such as Zharka who takes the souls who died in battle, or Warlock who takes the souls who have been used as sacrifice.

But the most prevalent of these Reapers is Rufus Edominus Dedan, who has more than one case of his existence among mortal men.

Rufus is the reaper who takes the souls who have died from self-infliction (i.e, suicide).
He lives a miserable existence amongst humankind and the various reasons as to to why they tarnish the given gift of life. All the conflicted misery and depressionΒ  among Rufus's "clients" had driven him insane and hateful to humans. He steps out of line as much as he can to make his job more worth while as he tries to induce various ways for making his "clients'" deaths more 'fun' for him.Β 
Though his mood and feelings towards humankind tends to change with each of his reincarnations of different forms and bodies, it still all stems from a feeling of contempt for mortals.

As said before, Rufus Dedan is a shapeshifter, though he carries the recurring motif of the colour red.
He has many forms in which he torments his "clients" who have considered the possibility of suicide. The most know one is the Red Mist, a sentient red aura that distorts certain memories and nostalgic connections to a certain mortal, whether it be childhood memories, old video games, movies and even cartoons that served as the only point of happiness to said mortal.
Perhaps his most terrifying and intimidating form is his Zenithian form, taking the form of an ancient, now extinct insectoid-reptilian-esque beast from the planet/dimension of Zenith, which seems to be a recurring trait for the more powerful of the Reapers. Though Rufus stands out among others as he's also able to take the bodies of deceased "clients" to serve as his mortal vessel when he visits Earth.

But despite his power and intimidating and cruel nature, Rufus is incredibly confined and restricted by his position, and is not allowed to directly cause harm or death among mortals, though this has not stopped him for trying to find ways around it.
