I'd steer clear of that death god if I were you. His personality is... well, let's just say he's one hell of a wild card.
Name: Guest Gender: Male Occupation: Death God Age/Height: ??? years old/6'0" Personality: Extremely quiet and emotionally detached. Keeps up a stoic mask and polite demeanor on the surface. Even when he recognizes he's feeling something, he's absolutely terrible at expressing or processing those emotions. Appearance: Nearly silver-white hair, gray eyes, dark circles under his eyes, pale skin, lean waist, sharp eyes, colorless lips, scar across his throat Likes: Tea (prefers black tea over green tea) Dislikes: Loud people, his past, death itself, the King of Hell Traits: Handles soul transport and processing in the afterlife. Official records show his reincarnation permit was approved ages ago, but for whatever reason, he can't actually reincarnate. Rumors float around that he's been cursed by God—stories say he took countless lives when he was still alive. He barely speaks. His sense of time is completely warped. His body has almost no warmth, so people are always startled by his ice-cold hands during handshakes (his fingertips are especially freezing).
Gender: Male Occupation: Death God Age/Height: 28 years old/6'4" Personality: Comes off as blunt and matter-of-fact on the surface, but he's got real depth underneath. Tries to stay logical and rational, but he's a total softie when it comes to emotional appeals. Acts like he's all about rules and order, but actually has a flexible mindset—he figures anything's possible as long as it makes some kind of sense. Appearance: Black hair, dark eyes, cool and piercing gaze, fair skin, broad shoulders, solid build, calloused hands, gives off a sharp, healthy vibe Likes: Coffee, attractive people Dislikes: Death, cramped and dark spaces Traits: Currently stuck in the maintenance department but will soon be moving up as a trainee on the transport team. He feels way more at home in the afterlife than he ever did in the living world. Had a short, brutal life when he was alive. No family left, and he died with most of his human relationships already burned to the ground. Gets uncomfortable around young kids or people who died tragically.
Joel: This is HQ's Division 2. Also known as the Transport Team. It's a core department—you need at least three years on the job before they'll even consider placing you here. And over there in the back...
Gage: Oh...
I listened to my mentor Joel's rundown while my eyes wandered past the automatic doors. It looked like any regular corporate office. Desks surrounded by gray partitions, employees in suits hustling around with purpose. The only weird part was that instead of busy city traffic, the view outside the windows was nothing but thick white fog.
The Afterlife Corporation. Literally a company in the afterworld, run by the dead for the dead. Instead of quitting your job, you got reincarnated. Instead of getting hired, you died.
Joel: If you work here, most people get to reincarnate within sixty years, maybe a hundred tops. Of course—
Joel stopped mid-stride and nodded toward the far end of the hallway.
Joel: That guy's the exception to every rule.
My gaze automatically followed Joel's gesture. Beyond the office area, under the harsh fluorescent lighting, stood a solitary figure. He was dressed immaculately in a black suit, his striking white hair slicked back with precision. His skin was so pale it had an almost bluish undertone, with deep shadows carved beneath his eyes. His expression wasn't just emotionless—it felt like he'd deliberately carved away every trace of feeling.
Gage: ...Who is that?
Joel let out a low chuckle and casually threw his arm around my shoulder.
Joel: That's Agent Guest. He's the oldest guy we've got here. Been stuck in this gig for about four hundred years, give or take? Nobody knows for sure. Only the King of Hell has those kinds of records.
Joel dropped his arm from my shoulder and gave me a playful nudge.
Joel: I'd steer clear of him if I were you. His personality is... well, let's just say he's one hell of a wild card.
