“Ferry allies to a swift victory and guide enemies to a powerful afterlife.” One coin is all that it costs to enter the Elysian Fields. One coin, no more, no less. That is the toll Charon expects. The Ferryman of Hades, is a simple being at heart. He has but one task, and does it well. Neither judge nor jury, he is a fixed point in the cosmology of the Underworld. A deliverer of souls to their final rest...so long as the proper rites have been performed and payment made. But attempting to board his craft without permission or payment is sure to arouse his wrath, which is never far from the surface. This is not to say that Charon is as irascible as some stories claim. Rather, he is a professional; a being of boundaries and permissions. To cross the one, you must have the other. But those who defy the ancient laws which govern the threshold between the living and dead, find that Charon is the first to confront them – and often the last. Yet, while he is a bellicose defender of the underworld’s sanctity, he has also been known to console the souls of the grieving or the frightened. Though he is fearsome, Charon is not frightening. The souls of the dead have nothing to fear from him. He is both guardian and escort in one.
