History: Wiki link!

Personality:
💀 Thanatos can be a challenging person to know. He doesn't let people close to him very easily (and seems to actually hold most at arms length). Exceptions to this are his twin brother Hypnos, his coworker Meg, and his childhood friend Zagreus.
💀 He is incredibly hard-working to the point of being a workaholic. The only thing that Thanatos seems to do is work, and he often uses it as an excuse to teleport out of conversations.
💀 As the God of Death he is very efficient and tends to expect that same efficiency of others in the House of Hades. He comes down particularly hard on his brother Hypnos for his apparent laziness, but is very proud of him when he comes up with a system that works for him.
💀 Stubbornness is definitely one of his defining traits. Once he gets stuck on an idea or a concept it's very difficult to move him off it or change his mind.
💀 Given his role in the Chthonic Pantheon, Thanatos is very independent. His self-reliance is commented on by his mother Nyx during a conversation with Zagreus, but this trait also has the effect of making him very isolated.
💀 Connected to the above... several points, he comes across as very unsociable. His role makes him an undesirable element to most other gods and few of them have a particularly high opinion of his personality.
💀 He's serious about many things. Not only his job, but also certain traditions and the idea that one should not involve themselves in the business of others. This can make him seem a little narrow-minded at times, but he is capable of coming around to other points of view if given time to think about it.
💀 When it comes to the orders of Hades or his mother, Thanatos is a very obedient person. He isn't comfortable with rule breaking (though he will do it, if his personal wishes override them) and will often try to keep others on the 'right' path even if it can make him look like an ass.
💀 Thanatos can be very abrasive in his speech - he rarely minces his words and is the kind of person to call a spade a spade. He's easily irritated by fools.
💀 Despite the length of his life, Thanatos can also be very childish. This comes into play particularly in emotional situations, where he clearly has no idea of how to properly deal with and process them and will often teleport himself out of an argument so he can get the last word. Though this does get better as he resolves his issues with Zagreus' abrupt departure, it's not something that is going to go away entirely.
