Underworld Lordship

Power to  hold dominion in the underworld, the subterranean Afterlife.

Also Called

 * Chthonic Dominion/Lordship
 * Underworld Dominion

Capabilities
The user has authority and duty in Underworld, a place where the souls of the all recently departed go, an Afterlife or Realm of the Dead. Exact conditions of the dead vary depending of the pantheon, but every soul comes there and while some may be punished and others rewarded, for the most the Underworld is a place of waiting and either rest or boredom.

Users are able to command the dead, and have powers related to life, and death, souls in general as well as power to bind and restrict (dead are expected to stay here after all). Some may have duties and powers related to Death and bringing the souls where they belong. Since Underworld is below earth, many have powers related to earth and minerals, darkness and possibly even vegetation (it grows from the earth after all).
