What they did to this character is ridiculous! (literature.cafe)

The original Death was one of the best and most memorable characters in the series! His indifferent posture and apathetic expression made the character very intimidating and imposing; the most powerless and intimidating in the series in my opinion! (After him comes the alternative Miguel.)

A character who was on the same level as God, who called Lucifer: "a spoiled, tantrum child." and saw the apocalypse as insignificant!

However...they decided to remove the character and the actor, and add another death that has no charisma or grace whatsoever! Bilie's main problem... is that she creates an emotional bond with situations, which is not consistent with death! Furthermore, she is very active in the story.

The main quality of the original Death is that she had a secondary role: her influence was more indirect and her appearances were punctual. Whenever it appeared, the original death performed great feats, for example: taking Sam's soul from the cage and being able to transfer/remove the mark of Cain.

However, Bille just doesn't have any great achievements... as she showed fear in some situations; he was afraid of God and even of the archangel Michael....I think that's very bad!

I have to agree. Death commanded respect just by his presence while Billie was so busy being bitchy that I'd roll my eyes every time she made an appearance.

I think many things got downgraded but Death suffered most. I am glad we got Rowena though.

This includes any Al-generated works of art, fanfiction, posts, spam, and any similarly created content.

Meme trends are NOT allowed. These are posts that make the rounds in every fandom community, as well as on social media such as Facebook.

  1. Reposts/Common Topic

Please use the community search bar before posting. Repetitive posts are determined by whether the same topic has been submitted recently, and most news updates/announcements will be pinned as an announcement on the community to avoid repeat submissions of the same thing. Submissions of multiple pieces of artwork in a short time frame will classify as spam. Post an album or space your submissions weekly.

  1. No Artist Credited

Always properly credit the artist when posting fanworks.

  1. Title Spoilers

Supernatural creatures, locations, and the names of major characters in the series without context will not be considered spoilers, but sharing plot developments, major events, or details about their character arc wil/be.

  1. Inaccurate Flair

Any and all content relating to a specific season must be given that season's flair; do not flair it "News/Misc’ or "Fanworks". Additionally, OPs cannot spoil any seasons past the one they use as flair. For example, if an OP is talking about Season 10 enough to spoil it in the post text, their post flair should be of that season and not an earlier one. Now that the show has concluded, any discussion about future theories (like the prequel) should be flaired as Season 15.

  1. No Spoiler Markup

Users cannot spoil past the season the OP has flaired their post without spoiler markup. If the OP indicates in the text of their post that they have not finished the season their post is flaired, do not spoil them past where they are. Always put any future spoilers in the spoiler markup so OP has the choice to click and read or not.

  1. Non-Descriptive/Improper Title

Post titles must provide an exact, concise description of the content. Titles should clearly explain what the post is about without additional commentary, jokes, or filler. Titles must not be vague or misleading. They should prepare the reader for exactly what they will see in your post. Do not reference previous posts, moderator actions, or any grievances. Please message the mod team directly to voice any concerns or frustrations.
