394:- The oldest of the Endless, Destiny appears as a blind man dressed in grey or brown robes (purple in earlier comics), carrying a large book, the Cosmic Log. The book is chained to him (or he is chained to the book), and within the book is written the entire sum of existence, past, present and future. Destiny seems the most possessed by his function and responsibilities of any of the Endless. He rarely demonstrates much personality. His sigil is his book.

And get into his face, don't just keep him in deep shadow all the time. He will be in deep shadow all the time, but I want to put across a guy who's clueless.

A sword is his symbol. His text is in a standard balloon with a strong outline. 587:- Delirium, the Endless' youngest member, appears as a little girl whose shape changes the most frequently of any Endless, owing to the unpredictable oscillations of her temperament. Her hair is wild and colorful, and her clothing are unusual and mismatched. Her only consistent physical feature is that one of her eyes is emerald green (typically the right side) splashed with silver flecks and the other light blue (usually the left side), although even those may fluctuate between the two. Her 575:- A short, fat woman with gray complexion and crooked teeth. She is constantly nude in the comics. Despair has a cool, silent intelligence about her. She has a tendency of cutting her skin with a hooked ring that she wears and also serves as her symbol/sigil. The second component is one that is present throughout the primary plot. The writing of Despair's balloon is normal, with ragged-waved edges. She frequently connects with Desire, but unlike Desire, she enjoys Destruction. 1791: 50: 113: 433:
and dying on Earth. She is by far the most pleasant of The Endless, being kind and personable to almost everyone; encountering her upon dying feels like "meeting an old friend".

He is very concerned with fulfilling his responsibilities. His sigil is his dream-helm, made from the spine and skull of a long-dead god. His personal realm/domain is called "The Dreaming". His word balloons have wavy edges and a black background outlined in white, with white lettering. 375:#5. Night is joined by Dusk, who was described by illustrator J. H.
