The Angel of Death figures in many different traditions. To some, for example, it is called Azrael, who is forever inscribing names in a large book, then erasing them. You are inscribed at birth and erased at death. Death could of course be a good, holy and welcome figure, a messenger from a higher power tasked with gathering souls for paradise. Over time, however, it has become confused with Satan, demons and the powers of darkness.
