ELEVATOR PITCH: CW: Death (clearly), suicide, depression

Der Tod is, literally, Death. They have no human name to call themselves, but humans have many for them - The Grim Reaper, The End, The Light at the End of the Tunnel, et cetera.

There was one who called them The Black Prince and begged them to stay when she was still young, saying she felt safe in the arms of Der Tod. They could not, of course, but it caught their attention...and unfortunately for Elisabeth, the woman in question, she HELD their attention. They had never loved anyone before, never had anyone indicate love for them. It left an impression.

Der Tod watched her her whole life, showing themselves occasionally to flirt with her, beckon her away from her unhappy life as the Empress of Austria. Not a woman who wanted to be told what to do, Elisabeth resisted at every turn, even as Der Tod came for her daughter, and eventually, her depressed, suicidal, estranged son. At that point she begged to go, now a much older woman, but Der Tod refused, angry at being spurned for so long.

Eventually, she was killed via assassination, and Der Tod welcomed her into her final dance with open arms.

It was uncommon that Der Tod let people see them like Elisabeth and her son - but when they did, they appeared otherworldly and chilling, sometimes flanked and attended by a troupe of angels. They are very not human, and they have never had to deal with consequence...after all, aren't they themselves the ultimate consequence?

After it all, now that they have had a taste of love, they are now fiery, passionate, and one hell of a dancer. Der Tod is the oldest brat you will ever meet - they are neither good nor evil (chaotic neutral in the purest sense), and for as long as they have existed, the only job they have ever had is to usher people on to the next plane. Used to going unnoticed, they tend to latch onto attention when it is given to them, and it can make them a bit erratic when affections are shifted away again.

Removed from their duty as a Reaper, they will be a little unmoored by the shock of no longer being an omnipotent entity, but are mostly going to be very curious about life - or unlife, as the case may be. They will be nosy, and will enjoy stirring the pot, affecting things, and generally egging people on to see what they will do. They still have an attachment to letting people meet an end when it is their time...but what better place to do that than Sangui?
