Thanatos ~ Death
Artifact
Thanatos' sword
Powers
Cold Touch
The human equalant to his father's touch of death. He can make a body go cold and bring the heart rate down. It also stops the blood from running, or at least slowing it down. He has been able to make small animals go into a comatose state. Also this causes flowers to wither when he touches them.
Death Stare
His eyes will darken until they are completely black while slowly sucking the life energy out of the being he is looking at. It costs a lot of energy and so far he has been only able to kill small animals, all pure accidential. Bigger beings may feel it as a cold rush of energy, or sudden sadness or start to feel exhausted and sleepy.
Wings of Decay
Two dark grey feathered wings will sprout from his back. They are strong enough to carry his own weigh and one extra person. However the more weighs he caries, they quicker they will decay and fall apart.
Counting Days
He can see how many days a being has left to live. He can not influence this or change this. He choses to mostly keep this a secret. Since the death dates are and will always be influenced by someones choices. He can't see his own day of Death.

Gideon / Hermes ~ Doomy
They have been neighbours for the past four years. Daniel had lived there for a bit over a year, when Gideon came to live with his grandma, Meredith. The cute old lady that had helped Daniel with his cooking and things like that, when he often made long days ("and could use some meat on his bones"). In return he helped Meredith around, fixing things, setting things up for her. When Gideon came to live there, he oftered his help as a teacher, ever since tutoring Gideon on the subject he hated most. Math. Despite his hyperactivity and annoying childish behavior Daniel has found a soft spot for his neighbour kid and will do anything to keep the scaredy boy save.

Daniel could remember when he was still a child, these people would come up to him. Only to him. They would grab him with their cold fingers, cling to him as they asked him to take them home, begged them to bring them away. He had never understood any of it, more than once it had upset him till tears. Yup, he had been a cry baby back then. But who could blame him, if the dead were bothering you? Not that he had known back then, not that he really knew now. Eventually the staff of the Orphanage he had grew up in had send him to a psychiatric ward to cure him for his hallucinations. Yet no medication, no therapy had worked for the young boy kept seeing those souls, kept being bother to bring them 'home'.
Still Daniel believed he had grown up fairly normal. He had made his friends, and found his first love; Katarina, a depressed girl with suicide tendencies. Somehow she had always been drawn to him, he calmed her apparently. The doctors and psychiatrists were very happy as both of them were not really those who reached out to others. For weeks they had been inseparable, though that all ended when Katy was unable to live any longer. She had hung herself and Daniel had been on the other side of the building at that time. But he had felt it. He had known it. He remembered looking at the psychiatrist he was having his session with and the only words that came from his lips during that entire session were: "She hung herself". From that moment on, he had been accompanied by the blue butterfly, he had called Schmetterling. Don't even ask for the reason. He didn't even know himself. Two days later Katarina had returned to him, she had told him to not tell anyone about them and asked him to please take her home. He had told her he had no idea where home was and she had only smiled lovingly at him, the same way as she used to when she was still alive.
From that moment on the 'hallucinations' had stopped. Daniel had learned to ignore those cold people, understanding now with Katy's appearance that they were the dead. Why he saw them, he had no idea and he didn't care to figure out. He just wanted to get out of that place. The doctors had been happy with his 'recovery' as it would have been a shame to have to give up on such a brilliant mind. He returned to school for his last year, graduating as top of his class with ease. He immediately applied for college, psychology at first. He wanted to know what was wrong with him, yet he no longer believed in the help of others. He was rejected, due to his past and for a moment he was lost on what to do. It was his old mentor from the orphanage who suggest Law to him and Daniel applied for Law school. The first weeks enough to make him fall in love with the subjects and he passed all his classes with high marks. At twenty one, he already knew how to land a job and he left the orphanage once he had enough money to support himself.
From that moment on Meredith, his old neighbor lady, had been the one to take care of him. From the moment she had seen him come up those stairs she was dead set on getting more meat on those bones. It started with once a week leftovers, but quickly became twice a week and more. Until Daniel finally confronted her about the fact that he doubted those leftovers were really leftovers. And from that moment on they had an agreement. He would help around the house and with her groceries and in return he would let her cook for him. An unlikely combination of friends, but a bound stronger than any he had had before.
A year later, Gideon had joined them. It quickly became obvious that the boy was struggling with school. Meredith being worried about it, of course, so Daniel had offered to help the little one. He had never expected it to be that challenging, yet despite the other annoying the living hell out of him, he had grown accustomed to their sessions. He had become quite found of the young guy that was struggling so hard with anything in life. Yes, Gideon had surely conquered his place in the cold heart. Though how important that place was, was still a big question, even for Daniel himself.
