Description

The final, and most dangerous of the four horsemen.  Death travels the world as an old woman (Boddva), seeking out the old and the dying to put to final rest.  Whenever Death passes through a town, the number of deadly diseases grows, there is an increase in the number of life-taking accidents, and a sense of looming despair follows her wherever she goes.  Although she does not seek to increase her won power, just being in her presence drains even the greatest man of his strength and will to carry on.

Death always wields her canonical scythe, and rides upon her pale horse Despair.  She is the last of the four horsemen, because she brings the final stroke to the lives of those subjected to the other three.
