The dearg due, meaning red blood sucker, was a beautiful and kind woman who killed herself after the abuse she experienced from her husband and family. The same night she was buried, she rose to seek her revenge on those who had wronged her. She first visited her father, and sucked the life's breath out of him while he was sleeping and then, having found her widower abusing his new wife the way he did her, she attacked him and took not only his life's breath but also sucked the blood from his veins.

Hermes gazed up at the stars. “My dear young cousin, if there's one thing I've learned over the eons, it's that you can't give up on your family, no matter how tempting they make it. It doesn't matter if they hate you, or embarrass you, or simply don't appreciate your genius for inventing the Internet-” “You invented the Internet?” It was my idea, Martha said. Rats are delicious, George said. “It was my idea!” Hermes said. “I mean the Internet, not the rats.”

Children of the Gods: Thanatos, Greek personification of death

The children of Thanatos stand divided, one foot in the realm of the living, mortal blood flowing warm beneath their skin, while the other foot resides in the underworld, where cold, skeletal death consumes like a dark shadow. They help their father collect souls, sensing death, guides to the deceased.
