Thanatos: Difference between revisions

Thanatos is very flamboyant and eccentric for a god of death and has a very goofy disposition almost all the time. He enjoys witty repartee and likes to make humorous conversations and jokes, even to his enemies. He is also very sensitive, easily getting offended when ignored or told to shut up. Despite him being loyal to Medusa and not wanting to give up the key, he insisted on handling things more civilly at first, wanting [[Pit]] and [[Palutena]] to hang a while and catch up due to, as he puts it, "Prefers honey to vinegar". It is questioned by Palutena why he, a god of death is not the ruler of the Underworld (the land of the dead) and does not outrank Medusa, he simply claims that he does not like climbing the corporate ladder due to the larger amount of work one has to put in and that it is not the Underworld's style to have a strict hierarchy, Palutena claims this is not a straight answer and he simply just covers up his ears and pretends not to listen while making ridiculous sounds. Because of this, Pit can't tell if Thanatos is just weird or dim. It is later implied that Thanatos was working with [[Hades]] at the time, and does outrank medusa, and was just covering for Hades. In ''[[Thanatos Rising]]'', the God of Death shows a more sadistic side by eagerly attempting to destroy a human town and lamenting when his attempt was stopped by Pit, calling it his "lovely carnage", showing that he may not be as foolish as he seems.
