Death is the exception, as her role requires that she have the ability to freely travel wherever she needs to go. They do not travel into the realms of their siblings except when absolutely necessary. The Endless are generally uncomfortable in each other's realms.

Destiny is also able to call his siblings by using his gallery of portraits. The Endless may contact each other by holding the appropriate sigil and calling for that member of the Endless. Within their realm, each member of the Endless has a gallery containing symbols, or sigils, of the other Endless. In such cases the aspect of existence supervised by that member of the Endless becomes more random and chaotic.Įach of the Endless has a realm in which they are absolutely sovereign. If one of the Endless are destroyed then he or she will be replaced by another aspect of their role, but this does not occur if they are simply absent or inactive. Destruction, often called 'The Prodigal', abandoned his duties altogether. The younger Endless, especially Desire, are known to play games with mortal lives. Some of the Endless are more dedicated to their tasks than others. For example, Death leads the souls of the dead away from the realm of the living, while Dream oversees the realm of dreams and imagination ('The Dreaming') and regulates dreams and inspiration. The Endless spend most of their time fulfilling their functions as embodiments of natural forces. Death has claimed that she was there when the first living thing stirred, and Destiny has said that Dream had given the Earth itself the fond dream of being able to support life. One example of this is when Dream is recognized by the Martian Manhunter as the dream god on ancient Mars, as well as as in the Endless Nights chapter 'Dream: The Heart of the Star', which takes place before the Sun's planets have 'awakened' with life.

This is possible because of the existence of many advanced alien civilizations from long before the creation of the earth. The Endless are as old as the concepts that they represent, and although exact ages for any of them are unavailable (only relative ones are), they are known to have at least existed for far longer than life on the Earth has. While it is stated outright that they are children of Time and Night, this may be true only in the abstract sense. The origin and exact nature of the Endless is unknown, and few hints are ever given as to exactly why the Endless exist it is more implied that they are natural processes. When asked by Marco Polo if Dream is always so pale, the Dream King replies 'That depends on who is watching.' Their appearance can change to fit the expectations of others. They may appear in different forms but usually have light skin and black hair, with the exception of redheads Destruction and Delirium.
