How does Jones even see this guy? I thought he was supposed to be cut off from the Ether or something like that.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Ankou (Breton: Ankoù) is a personification of death in Breton mythology as well as in Cornish and Norman French folklore

I know, semantics....in the Gunnerkrigg mythos, he's another psychopomp.
Still....if it looks like Death, and carries a scythe like Death, and shows up when you die like Death....

Psychopomps are basically Death(s), so yeah.

Also I've never heard of Ankou before, but I like his hat. Makes me think of Cowboy Grim Reaper. Except that he's herding souls instead of oxen.

Typical RotD. I guess he's actually just a 2D cardboard vampire with candy teeth.

I'd wager this is the cartoony Dracula from before, which is close enough.

Which raises a question....how come Kat is unaffected by the ROTD glamour, but obviously saw Ankou as everyone else does?

Clearly psychopomps aren't part of ROTD.

Remember, she saw Ketrak in his true form as well, several hundred pages ago. And Muut. And the others.
