(This character belongs to Saggio Forte, and may only be used by him/her.)
Mortem (/ˈmɔr.tɛm/)is the god of death and pain in the religion of Fabellism. He is referred to by the name of Cavaliere in Fabellist-Terrasantese transcripts. He has the appearance of a NightWing with cyan eyes. He has the allegory of a willow tree, which may represent mourn. It is believed that when there are great death tolls that are going to take place, Mortem is the one who reaps the first soul to die. He is also known as the first Actor of Fate, given the name "Death".
== Family ==
Mortem is the son of Pestilentia and Regius. He has one brother named Vesania. His consort was Tempestas, and they had a son named Astrum. Mortem does not have any relationships with mortals.
==History==
====Occupation====
In the early stages of civilization, Mortem manually reaped every soul. However, as time went on, the dragon population began to increase, making it difficult to keep track of all the deaths. For this reason, Mortem made the Inferna and Theresties.
====Events in History====
In the Deathly Age (1135-1522), ​​​​Mortem made many unnatural killings. In 1229, he lost control of many Theresties which also committed the act of death.
==Magical Creations==
====The Inferna====
The Inferna was created by Mortem when the population of the world began to increase rapidly. Once Dark dragons die, their souls are taken to the Inferna. There, they are tortured into becoming Theresties.
====Theresties====
These are also known as "Grim Reapers". They reap, or "harvest", a soul when it is ready to leave the body (at death). They appear as dark, rotting corpses with a cloak and small sickle (which is used for reaping). Theresties can be seen only through an Adapertio Lens.
The term Theresty comes from Omilía (Greek), θεριστής theristí̱s, meaning reaper or harvester.
====Argentum Potum====
This is a soothing liquid that can make the drinker immortal and immune to pain. The word quite literally means "silver drink". 
====Ferro Enim Mori====
This is a metal that can be used to kill anything, immortal or not. This also includes the soul itself, making Ferro'ri not only one of the most powerful substances in the universe, but also extremely Dark.
====The Falcem Mortic====
Mortem forged this deadly scythe's blade out of Ferro'ri, allowing him to reap almost anything. Theresties' sickles are not made of the metal, meaning that they are used only on standard mortals.
