Description "Death does not need weapons to claim you"

Deathshades are the lesser demons of Apocalis, unfeeling servants of death. Embodiement of darkness and desperation, Deathshades march under the vesseils of the God of Death, bringing forth his word.

Deathshade's head is elongated, in rensemblance to their master's hood, and they're covered in armour-like bone plates. They carry no weapon, they do not need one. Their schyte-like claws are born to extirpate the soul from other beings with their mere touch, as are their tails. These demon's gaze, with their skull-like face, freeze the blood of whoever dares to look upon them, and that's the last thing they see before the demon reaps them apart.

Deathshades have a rather passive personality, being uninterested in anything that's not death or personal profit. They're nearly mindless puppets for their master, created to accomplish what destiny has in store for any lifeform. Deathshades do not care for anything that happens in the mortal world, keping their cold stare only on the immortal realm and on the lifewire of mortals. However, these demons are extremely greedy, taking on any occasion to gain something they want, whatever may it be.

Usually Deathshades can't be seen in the world, as they appear only to bring death to those who are supposed to leave this world, and to carry them in the underworld for their judgement. However, only those who are supposed to die can see the demon as it comes for them.

Deathshades usually do not fight, unless Apocalis orders them to. However, in battle their claws bring forth the word of death with schyted glory, slaughtering anyone dares to insult their god. They're close-combat units, but some of them can specialize in spellcasting, drawing power from darkness.

well, anche se penso che le personificazioni della morte non siano definibili come buone o cattive(al massimo, caotiche neutrali) visto che la morte รจ una cosa universale e super partes, dirรฒ la mia:

l' idea di base รจ ottima, cosรฌ come l' armatura ossea e l' assenza di mandibola, che rende il volto della creatura gelido e inespressivo.

tuttavia,
-piuttosto che un cranio a forma di cappucchio, mettigli direttamente un cappuccio, magari fuso con il resto del corpo.
-aggiungi magari delle strisce di tessuto fuse al corpo, agitate perennemente da un vento soprannaturale.
-aumenta la seghettatura delle lame.

Mi sono ispirato un po' a certe mitologie, che presentavano la morte non come cattiva ma demoniaca. per esempio, li ho fatti freddi e riservati, ma allo stesso tempo avidi, come la figura di Ade.

Ok. Che dici, รจ buona l'idea di non dargli armi, oppure gli do' un "falcetto da polso"?

Demon xeno?

That's all I got. lol

It looks just a little over done in the tail and claws, though I do understand the over all look you were going for and you did it very well.

Thanks, man. Well, I think the xeno look works for death, but the head was done only to rensemble a hood.
Well, seeing it does not carry a weapon, I had to enhace its natural killing weapons.
