Prisoner 37469's definitions

Death

Usually personified as a skeleton with a dry sense of humour. Loves his job. Tall fellow, TALKS LIKE THIS. Everyone meets him at some point or other.

"It is a fact that although the Death of the Discworld is, in his own words, an ANTHROPOMORPHIC PERSONIFICATION, he long ago gave up using the traditional skeletal horses, because of the bother of having to stop all the time to wire bits back on."

--Terry Pratchett, "Mort"
