<p>195.194.187.132: A crown coming out of New Death is unlikely to be linked to a wheel coming out of wreckage.</p> <hr /> <div>The New Death appears briefly in {{RM}}, when it is called into existence by the [[Auditors]] to replace [[Death]], whom they believe has become dangerously infatuated with humans and has developed his own personality.<br /> <br /> The New Death appears to enjoy drama, silhouetting himself against the night sky in flashes of lightning and taking on the appearance of a cowled figure with no corporeal existence: the hood frames no face, only the shape of one. But where the brow ''would'' be sits a golden crown.<br /> <br /> This enrages Death beyond measure, and when given a precious few seconds more in which to truly exist by [[Renata Flitworth|Miss Flitworth]], he strikes with the rage of all mankind to destroy utterly this upstart new death who wished to rule over the harvest.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Annotation==<br /> <br /> The death of the New Death is an amalgam of iconic images: the thin wailing shriek produced is reminiscent of that issuing from the dying Lord of the Nazgul from ''{{wp|The_Lord_of_the_Rings:_The_Return_of_the_King|Return of the King}}''; the disappearance of the filling of the robe has resonance with the disappearance of Obi-Wan Kenobi when he is struck down by Darth Vader in ''{{wp|Star_Wars|Star Wars}}''; and the crown that rolls out from the robes refers to other medieval images of Death.<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Supernatural entities]]<br /> [[de:Neuer Tod]]</div>
