Naming the One Who Comes for Everyone
A grim reaper is more than a skeleton in a hood. They are the face people meet at the end, and their name is often the last word a character ever hears. That gives the name unusual weight. A reaper called Mortrane feels like an old institution, dusty and bureaucratic. A reaper called Hollowgrace feels like something that takes its work personally. Even small shifts in sound can move a character from terrifying to tragic.
