Like his brother, he wears poppies on his back, (but with "four" Props instead of "three", adorned on both shoulders).
He wears a long red tunic with gold details and white trim, and carries a clipboard and feather with which he reads his reports. He is often seen lying face down during sleep. His white hair and golden eyes are the only things he seems to have in common with his twin brother, Hypnos is of average height for a god, (when not hunched over and seen stretching, he visibly has a similar or even taller height than his brother) and has a slender build. Hypnos has a lazy expression and curly hair with a pen feather on top. At one point, he suggests that Thanatos "kill all the mortals at once" to make his job easier and thus free up more time together, and this may save his brother from his hard work, but Thanatos reprimands him for the "stupidity" of his idea.
Hypnos clearly admires his brother and wishes to spend more time with him, despite Thanatos' cold rejection. Hypnos is considered incredibly positive, considering his job, and it is speculated that his humor is one of the reasons why he It's still there. Hypnos cannot be found outside the House at any point in the game and will remain in the House, unlike Thanatos, who often moves to help Zagreus behind Hades' back. In sharp contrast to Thanatos' work who does it masterfully, Hypnos does not take his work too seriously. He will greet Zagreus and happily comment and jot down notes in his report about his latest death. Some dialogues suggest that Hypnos may be bored at work, "being one sad clown" and feeling lonely, and wanting someone to talk to. Achilles speculates that the reason he hasn't been fired yet is that Hades finds him very funny and considers him an "unofficial court jester."ĭespite the dark nature of his work, Hypnos is very cheerful and, although he does not have the best professional conduct, he is always very receptive. Hypnos is a serious case of immortal immaturity, constantly lounging around, and finding many ways to avoid his responsibility of accounting for the dead, from doodling to sleeping. He is the physical embodiment of sleep and is much more powerful than he appears, as he can put the entire House to sleep. In a constant battle against sleep, Hypnos is found sleeping more often than performing his task of accounting for the newly arrived dead to the House while awaiting judgment.
