All Messengers of Death (Mythical Creatures)

Figures sent to summon the dead, such as the Yamaduta, the servants of Yama in Hindu belief who bring souls before the lord of death. An entry belongs here when its article describes an envoy of death. The group page lists related creatures together so that a reader can compare how one kind of being appears across cultures and stories. Entries are placed by what their own article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group that its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members.
