Myrkul is the main god of Death, having ascended to godhood in the 14th century. He is often seen as a wicked and vile god, to be feared and prayed against. However, his time as a god has pulled out the vestiges of ambition and cruelty that the mortal man had. He tries to be cool and neutral regarding death but has been noted on a few occasions to show forgiveness.
He had a relationship with the cleric Jyllandar Kaniam when he was mortal and alive and reconnected recently when he found that she still guided the dead back to their rest. They are once again seeing each other but can never be together as she cannot really die and he cannot leave his duties.
