The Sandman/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Divine Parentage]]: Supposedly they are all offspring of Time, with Night being the mother of Dream, at least.

* [[Fisher King]]: Each has a domain, and within it, he or she is the only power that matters, and [[Screw the Rules, I Make Them| that power is complete.]] While some do indeed have a [[Sacred Hospitality]] policy, it is wise for a guest to also observe it.

* [[Power Limiter]]: While nearly omnipotent and omniscient, there is a set of ancient rules that each must follow, although nobody knows who imposed them or enforces them. An Endless cannot spill the blood of another Endless, and doing so causes the offender to forfeit the protection of his/her other siblings. Also, they are forbidden from entering a crypt within the Necropolis Litharge where their funeral garbs are kept; exactly ''why'', only they know.

** Some rules seem to be unique to only one of them. For instance, some beings are above Death's jurisdiction and cannot be taken by her; the only named being is Lucifer Morningstar, but there may be others.
