Thanatos

Thanatos is one of the most obsessive people you could ever meet. If she’s interested in something, she tunnel visions onto it. Unfortunately, that something is often people, and not in a good way. She has had restraining orders put on her before because she doesn’t understand how to step away.

Unfortunately, Thanatos is really manipulative, and she’s really good at it. She understands how people tick and what can get them to change. Her words are carefully tuned to what people want to her so that she can get them to do what she wants. Plus, Thanatos is really charismatic. She speaks with words that catch and hold people’s attention.

As is to be expected, Thanatos is really morbid. She finds death fascinating (and not just because she has the souls of the dead screaming in her ear 24/7). She’s the kind of person who has a skull collection for the fun of it and makes a lot of really dark jokes. This makes the people around her really uncomfortable, which she’s fine with.

A lot of the way Thanatos is can be explained by the fact that she feels completely and utterly out of control. Many of her actions have been spurred on by the dead whispering in her ear and she doesn’t feel like she can ignore them. In her mind, Thanatos’ hands are tied, and she must fulfil the requests of the dead. Thus, a loss of control.

Because of this, whenever Thanatos is in control of her actions she’s incredibly selfish. Everything is for her benefit - pleasure, survival, etc. No one else matters. Heck, she’s totally fine with hurting people as a means to her end. She may even enjoy it (but she’s not sure about that yet).

Thanatos was born to Mortimer and Kaia, the witch and the fashionista. Now, Mortimer and Kaia weren’t bad parents. In fact, the younger Thanatos adored her parents because they always made time for her. They celebrated her achievements and encouraged her on her way.

However, the spirits of the dead had been whispering in Thanatos’ ear from day one. No one knows why - perhaps it was just a fluke, perhaps a curse, perhaps interference from other witches, or perhaps the moon from another universe had it out for her. Whatever the case, Thanatos found herself bound to the requests of the dead.

Because of this, she had multiple incidents with law enforcement. After all, the dead cared little for laws with their requests. And sure, some of them were innocent last requests. Others, however, involved things like theft and maiming (though she drew the line at murder).

Her parents had no idea why she was acting out like this and brought her to multiple psychologists. Thanatos wanted to tell them, wanted to scream, but the dead kept her silent. Slowly she became bitter towards her parents, especially Lady Mortimer. After all, Motimer was a witch. How could she not see what was plaguing Thanatos and deal with it?

As she grew, Thanatos’ obsessive tendencies came to the forefront. This wasn’t great at all - she even got a few restraining orders against her. So, she tried to settle down. She became a medium in order to connect people to their lost loved ones. It went… okay. She wasn’t the best at getting the right ghost to speak to her but whatever.

Now, Thanatos has met a couple of young women she really, really likes. Hopefully they get away from her before she ruins their lives.
