DEATH

"Upon my will, I will raise you to the stars within my embrace."

The Deity of Death is a simple deity. From an outside perspective, this deity is a gender/form-fluid entity that takes all shapes and sizes. They take the form of whatever "client" they are currently seeing would be most comfortable with upon their last moments of departure. It is through them that souls are able to take form upon death, and be harbored to an afterlife that they're destined for.
This deity appears before every person before they die, and has a chance at offering a bargain for a second chance at life, or to stick around as a specter.

Death doesn't have any real allegiances to any mortal standard, but is more so a pillar of The Cycle as a whole. This being said, Death, Themselves is a very light hearted entity when needed, or one that inspires honor upon death within each culture. It's hard to pin down this deity within a small enough explanation, and because of this, many cultures depict Death slightly differently.

AFTERLIFE:

This deity, while the conduit for souls to be directed to where they belong, also watches over their own afterlife. Much is unknown about the plane of death, but it is assumed that each soul is becoming of what they deserve. Some believe that each soul is given back to the universe as energy. Some believe they are reincarnated. With how individualist Death is with their "Clients", this is also not an easy thing to pin down with one explanation.
