I reconcile this by believing that Death was created by the universal system (as I like to call the primordial order that governs all things including God and Amara AKA The NATURAL ORDER) as a result of Amara being locked up. The first Death was probably a sentience created to fulfil that role like God and Amara were, but unlike God and Amara, Death was only interested in their job. But as a result of being something that exists, it also needed to be something that can die. So the office of Death would exist even when Death dies. That office is inherited by a Reaper, the Angels created by Death to act as its agents. The first reaper that dies after the office is vacated, takes the office of Death. But, they have to grow into their role. They do not come pre-equipped with the mindset, experience and full power of Death. Additionally they retain their previous ego and as such seem like their former selves with a power upgrade and lack the gravitas of Death. Much like how Jack feels different from God despite having greater power seeing as he has Amara as a part of him.

I always saw it as Death knew he needed to die at the hands of Dean Winchester. He allowed Dean to kill him because, in his words, "You and your brother keep coming back. You're an affront to the balance of the universe and you cause disruption at a global scale, but you have use.", and as such, he knew they were vital in his task of reaping God. This is possibly why he helped The Winchesters so much like when he got Sam's soul out of Hell or when helped them with the God Castiel issue through the Eclipse. With the death of Death, no other primordial entity was around with enough power to stop Amara/The Darkness other than Chuck/God, forcing Chuck to reveal himself to take care of Amara as no one else could. I would also like to say that I believe no reaper that became Death, like Billie, was as powerful as the original Death because the original Death was a primordial entity while his "successors" were just glorified reapers who now gained a fancy title and some extra mojo. More powerful, yes, but nowhere near as powerful as the original Death.

My view is that death is as old as first creation which was before archangels were created and Amara destroyed. He was not manifested as a conscious being but the effect created by the conflict between Amara and God. When mark of Cain was created and Amara was locked then Death created a manifestation of itself learning from how Archangels were created with the primordial essence which again in my opinion is the essence of the empty thats been filled with in Archangels case Gods light and in Deaths case the power it absorbed from the conflict between Amara and God which is why it is bound by neither the dark or light but serves as an equalizer feeding off both of them. So the First death was the equivalent of an Archangel in terms of capability to manifest its powers while the force of death can't manifest itself like god does and thus it is like god everywhere at the same time. Reapers are imitations of angels created by death to serve its manifestation and force which is why they are so similar to how angels are. Because Death was bound to creation by god it lost the ability to tap into the empty to create another primordial manifestation of itself so it had to get creative and started using reapers after its primordial manifestation was destroyed. Thats why normal reapers that Turn into death can't use all of its might. This is also how its siblings were created on earth. Similar to how Death was created by the energy created by the conflict between Amara and capital G his siblings were created as minor forces from the conflict between creation and the natural force and later death would teach them how to manifest themselves creating their rings in the process. War is the manifestation of physical violence, Pestilence is the manifestation of struggle between corruption and creation, and Hunger is the manifestation of the struggle created between creations that transfer the energy between them. We also see horseman from older to younger in order except for death. War was most likely first came to being when God started its retaliation against Amara which was after the first first creation was destroyed and the Archangels were created so it never saw how God created archangels which is why its manifestation like his siblings except death was not primordial. Then came Pestilence which is as old as first mortal creature which is well after the universe and earth was created. Then came Hunger shortly after when those creatures and pets had their energy transfers between them and in a way this ties hunger and pestilence closest in age. War and Death are much older and Death is still quite a bit older than War. After their forces first became being like this and mark was given to Lucy well the first laviathans were formed and they were so strong and driven by hunger so much that god had to luck them away. This was because Hunger was so young and tried to manifest itself through the creation before death thought it how to manifest itself. Viruses were the first manifestation attempts of Pestilence through creation and they were not as much of a nuisance. War being quite a bit older never had to manifest itself through creation. Time passed and first angels were created and then some time after first humans. Lucy never had to compare itself to angels so there was no conflict but when Humans and souls were created and God charged angels including Archangels with protection of its creation Lucy was driven by mark led a rebellion which empowered War so much so that Lucy became aware of these 4 being created by sucking up the energy from the conflict and until then only God knew of their existence. This made god vary even more and this was the reason why God actually had to lock Lucy because he would be too dangerous if he could ally itself with them but Lucy created a spell to bind them to himself through the at the time current manifestations of them. Thats where the rings came from. Because Lucy was good for business all of them aside for Death were ok with this. Death took it as an insult because unlike the other forces Death is very strong and doesn''t need extra power or extra energy to feed off. It just created more work for death whom started to like the creation which is why he explicitly goes around and eats junk food. The others only view creation as battery pills whose suffering makes them stronger. So when Lucy was locked up God used the binding Lucy created to be used as a key to the cell and made the siblings unable to come together. Ofc during the rebellion first demons and first monsters were created and I believe monsters were failed attempts of creation of demons by Lucy. That ties into how Lilith in the myth is the first wife of Adam and how Cain got the mark.

Death would have come into existence when something that could die came into existence. In other words, when the original primal force manifested into God and Amara, death came as a side effect, because they were capable of dying. I do agree the manifestation of Death as a being was God's attempt to control/limit death, because of His ego. The proof of that is the manifestation being alternate "Deaths" in the alternate universes, only things created by God would have alternate duplicates.

So your idea of Death is similar to one of the Endless from "Sandman" (one of them is Death by the way): it is a force, a process that naturally happens in the universe, and this force was shaped, personified into Mr Death. But that was just a version, an intepretation of Death as a force, and so he could be killed and replaced. I quoted Sandman because there are SO many references to Neil Gaiman works in the show (expecially to American Gods and Good Omens), so it is very likely that the writers took inspiration from it.

If anything the Empty(The entity not the dimension) seems to be the incarnation of Nothingness, The literal nothing that existed before God and Amara who could be classified as The Something In my suspicion, Amara and God were the split halves of a parallel force to the Nothing known as The Something, This force was pure harmony of both Creation/Light and Destruction/Dark which was then separated into God and Amara which would then leave the Nothing to be reduced to the Empty as to keep the balance of Reality
@Archiver_Studio
10 ай бұрын
To expand on my idea, The Nothing and The Something were both halves of an even older and even more powerful force that was originally known as The Everything, A force of nature itself that predated anything else, this truly Omnipotent Entity was then broken into halves by the necessity for creation since The Everything did not create since it was not conscious like God, Amara or The Empty itself. The Everything split into The Something and The Nothing, The Nothing slowly reverted into The Empty by age and the necessity for balance since The Something was also split into two halves by the same dependency for creation which caused Amara and God to manifest as their conceptual forms of blinding white light or inky black nothingness of a cloud of infinite black smoke. The Empty saying it was older than Amara and God also has an explanation since it wouldn't be lying, it would actually be older than them since it was the Incarnation of The Nothing before The Something broke apart into God and Amara But that's just a theory, I'd love to elaborate more if you'd be willing to listen though :3

I didn't think that Death was literally a brother to the other horseman. He's on such a different level. I thought Satan basically just assembled the Horseman, and he had to ensnare Death, who's sort of a world apart. As for Chuck, I think there's one of two positions I can take. 1. Chuck is genuinely all powerful. He is "the writers", basically. That means Chuck never lost, or was never God in the truest form - in a way, it means that Chuck *is* Jack, just playing a character. This is a bit meta. 2. Chuck is not all powerful. He created the universe but is still bound by it - I think this is actually referenced at some point? I don't recall. But by creating the multiverse Chuck inherently limits himself to it - it's not just "snap my fingers and create it", he has to design it carefully, and he has to place himself within it. Chuck creates Death, and since all things die the only way to create Death is for Chuck to be 'mortal' in the ultimate sense. That's all to say that in order to create the universe Chuck had to create Death, and in order for Death to "work" Death must have power over Chuck - the least possible amount necessary, but some amount (it's not like it's easy for Death to kill Chuck)

It was stated (paraphrasing here), that the way God created the vast multidimensional quantum construct that makes up the Multiverse, it required his content input to keep on running. However he found a way around this, by "writing himself into the story itself", to allow reality to just keep on "tick, tick, ticking" even if he went awol.

Billie tells us (if she is to be believed) that the reason why Chuck can die is that in order to make his creation (which I guess includes the multiverse) he had to build himself into it and that is why he can die, otherwise, he would be completely immortal. Of course, I'm not sure how that applies to Amara, unless somehow he was able to pull her into it as well. He was able to imprison her with the help of his strongest creations (the Arch Angels), so it seems like if given enough time Chuck can overwhelm Amara, but she is still deadly enough to hit him with a lethal blow if she has enough desire (and opportunity) to do that. I like some of our theories, but I don't think the ones about Death really hold up to scrutiny. Death is probably just another agent of Chucks creation sadly, and is more of a title with power granted by the ring and scythe to a reaper. OG Death was probably the first reaper created. Also, we see Chuck destroy characters in a way that seems profoundly different than when he summons an environmental effect to end them. He seems to "unmake" a few characters, which I would imagine would totally remove them from existence, not just end their bodily life.

While the show was going on, I always suspected that Death was actually OG God. Just somehow trapped in the role of death by Chuck and Amara. On the seventh day when God rested Chuck and Amara trapped him. Then when Dean killed him it broke the spell and set him free. Hence why the job of death was a fillable position, it was a designed structure of the universe. But used as a cage/trap for the real God. The reason the Universe would end if chuck or Amara dies would have been the spell on God making him forget and be Death would end and they suspected he would wipe out everything Chuck had tainted. I was kind of disappointed with how it turned out. But hey stories unfold the way they do. It is not always roses and fan service. At least SN was never boring.

Goinng along with your Natural order theory I also believe and its kind of touched on here and there in the series that God isn't as all powerful as he likes to make himself appear otherwise it makes no sense how Jack could steal his powers spell or no spell. There are just too many moments where his omnipresnece doesn't work for it to truly be written off as arrogant. Like Sam and Dean had been trying to get rid of the mark for a while wh didn't he intervene more directly the way he did when Amara finally showed herself? I think its like you said there's the natural order or a being even chuck and amara have to answer too and it doesn't have a manifestation like everything else because it is the universe itself. In that the universe wants to be created and Chuck was what had enough power to do it and so when he created the universe he bound himself and in some part his sister to it (that would explain why they keep implying that Amara has the edge over chuck in terms of raw power shes not bound to the universe in the same way he is because see exists almost outside of it) and so just like the nothingness spawned chcuk and amara life wad created and so to fulfill its own needs Death was created so they're like cousins if anything and as the universe became more complex more complex manifestations (War, Pestilence and Famine) arouse to meet the demands. I think that kind of makes sense but it does function with the idea that those alternate universes arent actually universes but just the parts chuck created and they all existed in the larger universe that created Chuck. I think that would simplify everything.

Think the darkness knows death, but he probably didn't have a name at that point or they didn't know what death was yet, till after she got locked away. Because they were 1 or 2 fresh beings, Death was either made by God, appeared when they did or got a conscience when they arrived or he was already there and somehow they or she didn't know, I like to think they just didn't know what death was, because their new and death wasn't born till they were, and that's why he doesn't know whos actually older, because it's was like he was "birthed" or "awaken" when they arrived he either knew his role there or learned it at a later date, especially since I don't think death was a full concept till later on, either God wiped them out of existence or he probably put things else where like the leviathans and pit demon things that lucifier didn't want out, or he had reasons, I don't think the idea of death came till God brought first life but death didn't get his full identity till then, and he came to find out he'll reap all in the end

Honestly, I love channel. And this video is why. Your theories, while not official, are amazingly well thought out and interesting. I actually had a theory on this a while ago. I believe the title of "Horsemen" is a title used to describe conceptual beings. Less of a person and more of a thing. You have the main four, War, Pestilence, Famine, and Death but I believe God to be the Horseman of Creation, Amara/The Darkness the Horsewoman of Destruction, and The Empty the Horse thing of the void or nothingness. I think Horsemen are both empowered but limited by what they represent, ie their concept. War, Famine, and Pestilence are human inventions while Creation, Destruction, and Death are all higher concepts. However, I think the reason why there are multiple Deaths are the same reason why there are reapers. Death can't do this job by himself and requires representatives to assist. As such, the Original Death is never actually scene in the show, just his main avatar for that universe which due to their status is given a copy of their creators memories.

One of the biggest issues of this show is showing these very ultra cosmically powerful entities then making a rather ,unfortunately simple way to "kill" them, even for a human, I get that Dean and Sam were thee ,"hero characters" but they were still just human, and every time they went up against Death and even Lucifer they with the exception of the alternate Arch Angel "Michael " possessing Dean to finally actually kill Lucifer. The winchesters are still just human so the whole "explanation " of them "killing " these cosmic entities just because they are the "hero characters " is quite flimsy and a bit shallow, now that being said it is still one of the best shows in years.

What would have made perfect sense was that when Dean dies he should have assumed the mantle of death because he was the one that killed the original death all the Reapers that assumed the mantle were just Temporaries until the time when the true vessel of death Dean would have assumed

God is nearly the same age, but neither can remember. But Amara does not recall knowing of Death. Either Death was alive during Amara's Era and simply kept away from her. Or Death was created/born after she was sealed away, and if you consider the second choice, perhaps God saw a need to Balance out Creativity and Destruction, Life and Death, and created Death for the purpose of maintaining some sort of End. Existence is the cycle of Life and Death, a Constant, a never ending cycle.

I heavily disagree, death the entity is multiversal, and that death is an inherent part pf reality itself, yeah we see a set of twins in chuck and amara, but why does there only need to be one, I believe death and the empty are themselves also twins but neither can fully die, the empty was as it said asleep until jack unintentionally woke it up, cuz its original counter part wasn’t there anymore, afterall billy as the new death promised she would let it sleep again, the empty is nihilism incarnated, it literally is the state of not existence an even more permanent version of death, and death is the only thing that can bring peace to the empty, they are fundamental to the university and thus permanently tied to everything, thats why chuck and amara can die and we are never told they be replaced when x dies but death can die but not permanently cuz its the walking embodiment of an action think of it like the endless in the dc comics you can kill an aspect of them but you can’t get rid of them cuz thats like trying to get rid of numbers in the universe

@@90CJk except you seem to forget supernatural is a retcon nightmare, but ok why do we never meet or hear any alternative deaths, sure Billy and that other lady replaced death but there was still only ever 1 death at a time we ever meet, and that only happens with the multiversal characters like chuck amara and the empty, plus how would billy as death would know of how much or how far along was chuck into the destruction of the alternative universes, and chucks death book is in her library, and why would the empty itself go to her library cuz apparently billy could in theory help it sleep so why not go to any other version of death and ask them to do it, even if she was lying the empty seemed to think she would be able to help it sleep, if death is universal not multiversal, then there would be other libraries, and if billy has chucks book wouldn’t by default any other version of death also have one? Why wouldn’t it just go to one of the other universes, theres only 1 death (at a time) and theres only 1 library with 1 set of books Not to mention do you not consider the fact that chuck takes death everywhere he goes, cuz for a moment disregard the hole multiverse thing, when amara was introduced it was stated that chuck created the archangels in order to help him lock her away, our reality is not the first or last, might be chucks favorite but its not the prime earth, chuck created countless versions of them who all probably believed that they helped him lock her up, Everything until the introduction of the multiverse is written with the assumption that it was just one, which leads me back to what I started with, dod you forget the supernatural is a retcon nightmare? That genuinely had no long term plans and was making shit up season to season after season 5 which is why theres so many retcons and continuity errors throughout the entire series

@@edwinjusto5739 The person is just pointing out that within the context of the shows very incoherent universe your theory is flawed especially because the world seemed to exist for a while with no embodiment until billie died and since it took that long for a reaper to die that probably means they don't die very easily or few people actually know or want to kill them. meaning the universe could exist without the embodiment of death for figuratively forever if no reaper is killed (because they don't die of old age) so like it would have been one thing if people simply weren't dying when killed or so like in the one myth about Thanatos being kidnapped but the world seemed to be chugging along fine. But in the context of a better show your theory is very good

This is something the Supernatural series explains. God wanted the universe to function without constant oversite so created the natural order to run it automatically. Death is a part of the natural order made by God to manage that role. Death was made after Amara was locked up because that's when God created the natural order and death was needed. (All parts of the natural order have a sentient entity to manage it.) In order for God to function within the world he created, he needed to place himself inside the natural order. To function inside the world, he needed to play within it's rules. That's why he has a death book. God was fine with this as he assumed nothing could actually kill him.

Supernatural takes a lot of from American Gods and Vertigo comics in general (Castiels trench coat is taken from Constantine, etc). Neil Gaiman wrote American Gods and Sandman which both operate on the same rules as far as how the pagans work. I’d like to think that Death (if not all four horsemen) act like the Endless from Sandman- one of which is death. They just exist naturally and supersede gods. In the Lucifer comic he creates a new universe and Death is already there. At first Lucifer thinks it’s the Death from the universe he was just in but no it’s this new universes Death. SPOILERS FOR SANDMAN BELOW Billy taking over as Death also makes me think of Morpheus dying and being replaced by Daniel Hall as Dream. Dream himself cannot die but the personality manifesting the concept can.

I have not watched every season of Supernatural so I might lack some canon info. But what I wonder as a result from your video is: what even if death in the serious (the lower case d aka the primoridal? concept). If we look at the "deaths" happening in the series, we have quite a few different processes accredited with that term. 1. The normal "death" aka human dies and soul goes to heavon or hell (or stays as a ghost). Here, the job of Death as done by his reapers is to bring the souls towards their destination dimension. I assume similar for monsters and purgatory. 2. The "death" of angels (and afaik demons). We do not know whether reapers are involved in this process. We only know that they end up in the empty under the watch of the shadow. 3. End of existence. From what you said in this video, something attributed to Amara. Now, If we look at this, all evidence we have point to death only affecting souls. And all it does to them is transfering them from one dimension to another. Or maybe it also "disentangles" the soul from their body. The shadow seems to be something entirely different from Death, considering these two fight later on. And Amara is obviously something else, too. If the phenomenon of death is not more that the translocation of a soul then this leaves us with 1. it was created by the one who created souls (either actively or inadvertenly). Considering that beings that posess such a soul came after Amara, God, the angels, and the arch-angels, this would imply that even the concept of death is predated by these entities. Let alone the personification of it. In this case, God clearly predates Death and has created him/her/it in every sense. 2. If we follow your theory that God does not really "create" things from scratch, but merely brings into existence things that are already there in some non-existing sense it could have non-existed as long as ever other concept in the "natural order". This leads us to the interesting question about what souls are and where they come from. It can be assumed that God has only limited power over them, as he once stated that he could not restore a destroyed soul. Assuming he was not lying, this means that souls are something very special even within all the other special things in the world of supernatural. And this natural order is in essence the natural order FOR SOULS. Which might entail that even God cannot bind them to a part of his creation for eternity. Which, at the moment he creates the first entity that has a soul also brings the concept of death from non-existence into existence. And may also create Death the entity. Something I thought about just now, Death claims in the beginning that he will also claim God at some point. Considering that God basicly became mortal at the end of the series, this is true, even if God did not have a soul at the beginning. Maybe he has one then.

I wonder if the idea of the natural order governed the creation of God, Amara and Death. Death is order, God is progress and Amara is decay/destruction. The reason death isn't necessarily a single person is because as seen in the show death is more of an inherited position that keeps order in the universe

The Scythe is designed by the new Death so it appears however the current Death wants it to, as far as being able to Kill anything I believe it can it’s probably a last resort option for Death to take out more powerful beings who could overrule his natural powers and as such comes with the job. It’s something Chuck would add for a little spark of danger for himself and totally forget about too lmao

Been rolling through my head, the origins of death too… It would all depend on what was going on before the universe existed. We know there was Chuck and his sister. But where did they come from and we’re both of them in essence immortal or not? If they weren’t truly immortal at that point, then they could die, which means death would’ve been there. If at that point, they were immortal then perhaps when Chuck created the universe in life, the counterpoint for life would’ve been created, which is death. That again could death be a piece of Amara? I mean if Chuck were the light and she was the darkness and she opposed all life then she herself would be a version of death. so perhaps in her absence, Chuck created death to create that counterpoint.

I believe Death was a job, not an entity. It came with some benefits and powers but we see in the show that the powers granted by the position of being Death are not all that. Lucifer was able to easily kill a new Death for example. OG Death was a true primordial, which comes with its own powers which far outshine the juice granted by the position alone. Recall the meeting between Dean and OG Death that leads to Dean killing him? There is a point during that exchange where Death suggests he can relocate Dean somewhere off-world where he can't be a danger to others. If you watch OG Death's facial expression while he says this, it's quite clear he's got some other agenda, he's scheming something. I believe it was at this point he'd realized he had a way out. He'd be perfectly capable of moving Dean somewhere that Sam would have zero chance of getting Dean back, his insistence on destroying Sam was pretext, he WANTED Dean to kill him, think about it. Why would a hyper intelligent, near omnipotent being hand Dean Winchester the only thing in creation that can destroy him, and then threaten his brother? That is a ROYALLY dumb move unless you want to die. I reckon OG Death can't die, but being "destroyed" like that released him from the POSITION of death, which is what he wanted. He's still around somewhere.

Death is probably older than God he knew how they were born and what caused it ,he probably knew what God and the Amara's true form looked like before they split and since he had capabilities to kill them he was probably more powerful but just didn't want to interfere because he knew the entire plot of how things would end even knowing that he would die due to the mark but it was necessary because he probably saw God being corrupt and some might argue that it's because Amara gave him some of her grace when he was dying but it's mostly due to his ego because he felt control slipping through his fingers thus he feared jack becoming a new God , kinda like how jesus gained more influence over people than God and God having to take him out when he was encouraging people to believe in themselves more .
