Personality
Nothing is known at the moment about Mr. D'eath's personality, but he seems to have a rather upbeat personality.

Classic Monster
D'eath is a skeletal creature whose outfit and contradictory happy persona play into the character of the Grim Reaper.

Skeletons are, of all types of undead, the ones most used to represent death. In European tradition, this association particularly took off in the late 14th century, when war, disease and famine were the more likely alternative to living another day safe and sound. Around this time, the Dance of Death genre was introduced, which used skeletons in its imageries as transitional characters between the joys of life and the inevitability of death. From this are the representation of death as a skeletal entity, the Grim Reaper in English, who in the 15th century received his scythe and black hooded cloak attributes.

Trivia

 * Mr. D'eath is remarkably similar to G. Reaper, who exclusively appeared in the webisode "Back to Ghoul". It's possible Mattel intended them to be the same character, but there was miscommunication about the identity or trademark problems.
 * D'eath's credentials and favorite quote are as follows:
 * North Styx State B.A., Modern Dance/Journalism
 * Tombstone Tech M.A., Peace Studies
 * "What's the worst thing that could happen?"
 * "North Styx State" is a reference to the river Styx, which in Greek mythology was the body that separated the realm of the living from the realm of the dead.
