Death

24 of 28 in my novel series. We're in the home stretch.
This is Death, he's called Death because that what he was created for to bring death to the enemies of the gods and their chosen tool. Death is an anthropomorphic demon-hound. A demon hound is a crossing of a lesser demon and a wolf. Originally the breed was created by human sorcerers because they were trying to make the demons power more controllable by mixing it with the loyalty of a canine, unfortunately the demons would drive the wolf part insane with home sickness for their pack and they usually ended up killing the foolish human who created them. In any event Death was created by the gods, so he's not unstable and not crazy. He doesn't have a human form, but can turn full demon hound. Demon hounds have all the archaic knowledge of a lesser demon, and have the powered up abilities of a wolf. They are fast, strong, and especially ruthless, luckily Death is also extremely loyal. Demon hounds also go into a sort of blood lust when they get the smell of blood, whether its their own or someone elses it doesn't really matter, they become even more chaotic and hard to control. He was introduced in the first book and has become one of my main cast of characters.
