You have a list, and you follow that list. Regardless of what you choose, go for +2 CHA, +1 CON for your stat distribution, and if you get a free skill, pick up Athletics or Persuasion, and Fighter Initiate, Fey Touched, Great Weapon Master, Metamagic Initiate, or Slasher for your bonus Feat.ĭeath has no morality. As such, the best races for the embodiment of death includes: The Reborn, which will alleviate your need to eat, drink, or sleep enough that hunting down your targets can be your primary objective, the Fallen Aasimar, which can channel your dark edginess, filling your target with fear while increasing the damage your scythe does, turning you into a dangerous exterminator, or Custom Lineage to further customize yourself as an Undead creature with a free skill and a bonus feat. The Grim Reaper is usually depicted as a sentient skeleton, but in other cultures, he appears as a winged man, such as Azazel, the Angel of Death.

Now obviously, the embodiment of Death itself should be unable to die, but this is a PC, so it won’t be as OP as the actual figure, but we’ll do what we can to come as close as possible to playing as Death.

We’re looking to play the embodiment of Death, focusing our build on hunting down our targets and extinguishing their spark of life. So, I want to commemorate the holiday with another special build.

I got my start as a Tumblr DnD blog with my Halloween build of Maleficent.
