Happy Halloween!!
This is a collab between myself and my awesome wife, @rockwell-light for her Goretober prompts! The theme for today was Vampirism~ 🩸💕 I supplied the line art and the composition, and she came in with the SPECTACULAR colors and shading!
Here he is… Death.
Death is, as you can tell, the ‘Earth Prime’ version of MZ. As Kara pointed out with Dirge, we like to interconnect out universes, and he became the ‘plot reason’ her Rock and my MZ are fated to be together. TLDR; he is the God of Death, paired with the God of Life to keep the balance of souls in check. His abilities aren’t restricted to a single quadrant of the multiverse, but the multiverse as a whole, though there are some places that are harder to access more than just observatory than others.
Most things cannot see him, much like other other-folk, but sometimes he can be glimpsed in crowds or distant places, watching and observing. His cloak is a form of his wings, of which there are eight pairs, and only are visible in times of great calamity and danger. Normally it moves and shifts as it is made of shadows, just like he sometimes is. He shifts in shadows and moves with them, though has no adverse reactions to being in the sunlight either.
Kara wrote a little about how he and Dirge first met, but the summary is that Fate (the Goddess of Fate, I’ll make her a shiny ref at some point) told him to don his Avatar’s skin and interact with one of the souls he was meant to reap– that soul was Dirge. Fate had it so that Dirge was Death’s first Guardian, who functions as a reaper to ferry souls from place to place, and be another set of eyes.
Death rarely speaks, and responds to things in a neutral manner. After all, souls are hardly worth talking to, all of them bargain to have a life that is already gone.

XZeroWeek: Day 2!!!
I am so sorry for my absence! Kara and I have been working nonstop of the scripting phase of our webcomic, so I haven’t been doing much art as of late… To make up for it, this last week I’ve been burning down the candle to make these! These are Soul Wines, and I had a lot of fun making them. Kara and I have been talking, and they’ll be stickers for sure, and possibly charms/keychains!!!
Here’s the excerpt we have for them. ^v^
Soul Wine.
Souls can be used in a variety of ways, but a common one for Demons to use is Soul Wine. It is a ‘wine’ that has the appearance of stars in a bottle, most of the time, the liquid is semi-transparent to not very, but can be seen through (look to: Apache Tears stones). Upon peering in, sometimes one can see a 'star’ or tiny ball of light– a soul. The wine is made by adding a minimum of 8 to thousands of souls in a bottle, and letting it keep for a number of years, after all of the souls’ essence has melded into the dark/transparent black color the wine is known for.
A 'cheap’ wine is made when souls of the wrong kind of sin are put in the same bottle. It tastes poor, and like a gross mix of 'flavor.’ Humans and mortals cannot drink this wine, as the monstrous entity that is the combination of souls will attempt to overtake the drinker’s body, and add their soul to the concoction before possessing the empty shell. These die fast due to the lack of the correct host, but are extremely dangerous.
Soul Wine can change in appearance, and there are different kinds for each sin.
Wrath, for instance, is the darkest of the seven in color, and the bottle housing such aggressive souls will occasionally rattle with fury. The souls inside will sometimes take the appearance of hands attempting to break the glass.
Greed sometimes has a gold 'stars’ instead of white, and occasionally gems, currency, and precious metals will accumulate on the bottom. Don’t place your hand inside, or it will try to pull you in as well. This does not matter if you are a demon, immortal, or not. Drinking it is fine for immortals, but do not take things that are not yours.
Lust smells like the things you already adore, normally the perfume of a person you love and/or the scent of your favorite place. It is the most aromatic of the seven drinks. Drinking it sometimes makes you a little more truthful than you want to be. There are lipstick stains and lavender that appear on the inside, though this is not necessarily what it smells like.
Looking into the bottle of Envy will make you see what you desire the most. Different than Lust, it shows you what you desperately want, and cannot have, or have yet to achieve. Glancing inside, sometimes you will see eyes watching you back. Green smoke billows from it.
Gluttony is pitch black, and consumes light. Nothing glows from inside it, though there are souls within the mixture. Sharp teeth curl around the inside of the bottle, and will eat anything that falls into it. The more souls in a bottle of Gluttony, the more teeth there will be.
Pride is the lightest coloring of Soul Wine, and is known for its sparkle. It literally glitters as it’s poured into a glass, and occasionally rings and pear necklaces, and diamond earrings will fall out as well. The bottle radiates glowing light with a dark shadow underneath. Sometimes peacock feathers are inside.
Sloth is thicker than the others, and pours out with the viscosity of honey. The souls in this bottle are larger than average and function in the glass like ice cubes, floating lazily to the top. If you squint, you can see text and words floating around. Sometimes these words grant inspiration, though you may have to battle with the desire to give any effort to such ideas. Sometimes sand gathers at the bottom.
