He is the Pontiff of Holy Hilk Kingdom, and the mastermind behind the suppression and eradication of the Elves and Beastmen, along with destruction of many Kingdoms.

He is actually a Wanderer just like Arc who had arrived in the Other World over 100 years ago, and believes that the World he is in now is a "PACC" based virtual world.

## Appearance

Thanatos held an ornate stick representing his power in his hand and wore an even more luxurious robe than the cardinals.  On the head sat a miter embroidered with several sacred symbols that only he was allowed to use.  A veil was also attached to the mice, covering his face completely.

Because he is a skeleton when he walks there is no sound and whose eyes sockets shine with red lights.

Thanatos originally was wearing a jet black robe covering his entire body and there was a weird staff in his hands. The staff itself was of an abnormal design and rather long. It looked as if I were a stereotypical magician.

### Spells

* **Unknown Magus Fire Spell**: By pointing a staff even without chanting, the black flame will sparked on the end of the staff, when the black flame will hit the target, it will instantaneously reducing it to ash.
* **Unknown Magus Transfer Magic Spell**: Raising the staff above the Thanatos, a black orb appears that quickly swallows his entire body and immediately moves to a nearby visible location.
* **Unknown Create Undead Spell**: A black ball appears on Thanatos' feet and jumps on the bodies around him as the shadows are absorbed into the body, the dead bones begin to rise ragdoll-like. The resurrected bodies pick up their weapons, which they used while still alive.
* **Unknown Create Skeleton Spell**: By chanting quietly and hitting the back of the staff to the ground with his left hand while waving a small black stone in his right hand over the body. A stone from that hand will radiate a violent aura as it gently fley from his hand and stepped silently into the body. The body stands up and walks into the nearest flame to burn the skin and become completely skeletal.
* **Summmon Skeletal Balaam Spell**: By chanting ”Come forth denizen of the underworld,【Skeletal Balaam】!”. A massive, ink-black cloud instantaneously formed in response to the Summoner chant, and from the blood-red magical aura churning within the clouds emerged a fifteen-meter tall, demonic creature.
* **Nether Resonance**: When the veiled man cast the spell, a black aura engulfed the thousands of undead behind him. The up-to-this-point silent undead unleashed a cacophony of animalistic shouts as they absorbed the aura into themselves. The threat they now posed was palpable, as every undead soldier and chimera roared and their eyes started shining a bright crimson color. The veiled man’s magic had merely buffed the stats of the undead. A spell such as that would’ve had a limited effect in the game, but that wasn’t the feeling I got seeing the change brought about in the undead.
* **Evil Thorne**: is a curse spell After the spell was cast, three semi-transparent, rotten heads appeared on the tip of the veiled man’s staff before launching themselves at me. In the manga Evil Thorne is a long thorne it has six spikes in the font.
* **Summon Botis Spell**: by saying “【Summon Botis】!!” a large magic formation appeared on the ground in front of him before a massive figure sprung from within the circle.
* **Unknown Magus Lightning Spell**: pointing with his one of his hand’s two fingers.  The clouds of lightning come around him and destroy all his enemies.
* **Unknown Chin Spell**:
* **Soul Bullet**:
* **Chaos Sinis**:
