Ebris,Lord of the Cossroads
God of Death and Lord of The Crossroads Ebris
"As I felt my life ebb away, I was afraid. Not of dying but of the God of Death. In life, I always heard how he played with the lives of mortals like chips in a poker game. How he was insane and was just as likely to throw you into one of the pits off hell as he was to send you into your proper afterlife. I could see the cloaked shape of a psychopomp flying towards me and I could feel my fear rising and soul spilling out. As the psychopomp caressed my face, the last of my soul left my body I felt my fear leave and a calm overtake me. The once terrifying psychopomp cloaked in black was now a beautiful woman dressed in a beautiful navy blue dress. She merely held out her hand and smiled. That was all it took for me to know that my life was over. I took her hand and a door opened to the Crossroads. I had been to the Crossroads in my younger days traversing the planes with my now long-dead friends. It was a grim place devoid of life, only the souls of the dead belonged here. I suppose I was one of the dead now. I as we walked through the door, the Crossroads no longer looked grim and gray but now it was lush and green with beautiful green grass. The black spires that contained the portals to the other realms were now gigantic trees that represented the realm they lead to. I approached the center I could see and the towering throne of skulls, the same one I had seen all those years before. This time was not afraid, I was terrified. As I approached the throne I could feel every fiber of my being quake, It was time to meet The Mad God of Death. Ebris. I arrived at the throne to see it was empty but beside it was a rocking chair and a stool with a small wooden table in between them. This is where my entire view of Ebris was changed. Setting in the rocking chair was the soul of a young girl who died far before her time and she was playing cards with a man who appeared to be no more than 35 years of age. He was dressed in a bright purple doublet with obnoxiously orange trousers. " It seems you won young lass, here is 40 more years. Don't squander them, not everyone gets this chance." The man purple said with a wink. The Little girl just giggled as the man in the purple shirt waved his hand and she disappeared. He then stood up, turned to me with a sad smile and said " My name is Ebris, pleased to meet you. I wish we had more time but alas we need to get you to your afterlife. please fallow this young woman she will take you to where you belong." With that, I was lead to my eternal home of The Everchanging Forrest."

Personal history
Ebris was created to take over for his brother Vozzihd as the God of death. Vozzihd was not happy that he was being replaced and replaced by someone as Chaotic and strange as Ebris. Ebris was colorful and always wore a sad sort of smile and Vozzihd hated it. Death was meant to be bleak and certain, once you died you stayed dead and everything died. Ebris agreed with that sentiment to a point. Everything will die eventually but some should be able to have a second chance even without the intervention of a cleric. So once Vozzihd reluctantly left The Crossroads he tore down all of the signs leading to the other realms and moved them around attempting to sabotage Ebris and set him up for failer. Ebris however quite enjoyed the pandamonium and left things the way they were. Ebris now having The Crossroad under his dominion made a few changes, such as it appearing different form mortals then what it does to the dead. Ebris also decided not to tear down Vozzihds throne of skulls and bone, but instead put next to it a rocking chair for himself to set in, a stool for guests if he should have any, and a table to play cards upon.
