Grim Reaper

Description

Heyo it's art! This little guy was randomly designed, however he sparked an RP between a friend and I so he actually gets some use! I knew I wanted to create a grim reaper type of character, but I wanted him to be happy. I know that sounds weird, but it will make sense with his character info XD I wanted some elements of a traditional reaper to be there, hence the bone tattoo like markings on him. When picking out colors for him I really wanted it all to be really pale or very dark. I went with the traditional black reaper clothing (with a twist obviously). For his skin I wanted it to be very pale and just a little dead looking. I think I achieved that??? I decided to add a grey/teal color for a little pop to break up all the lights and darks. Color this was actually rather difficult mainly due to all the bones I had to work around ;~;

Heres a little character info!

NAME: Aeron
AGE: ??? (old, very old lol)
GENDER: Male
PERSONALITY: Aeron is serious of his reaper duties, but he can also be very childish. He likes to make jokes to lighten the mood, mainly because his presence usually darkens it. Despite being a reaper he doesn't enjoy killing. He prefers to keep something alive until it's time has come, doing what he can to make their last moments enjoyable. When the time has come he'll take there hand and walk with them so they aren't alone. Even though he's a reaper he finds life to be beautiful. Even though many fear or hate him, he takes some joy in knowing he (death) givens meaning to the living.

<bFUN FACTS:</b>
-his name is unisex and was derived from a celtic goddess of death. His name basically means things like death, distraction, etc.
-He loves birds, especially ravens. He has a three eyed raven (no, not Bran Stark) that is his best companion.
-It's more of a fun thought, but I like the idea of him having brother that are the other three horsemen of the apocalypse.
-He sometimes likes to hide himself amongst the living. This way he can feel close to other, but he still has to be careful.
-Even though he's pleasant, what he is makes others fear him. Because of this he doesn't have many friends.
