I was just reading an HP fanfic, when it suggested Manannán mac Lir as the identity of Death in The Tale of the Three Brothers.
Get this:
Manannán has a powerful sword, Fragarach - The Elder Wand
Manannán has a cloak of invisibility, Féth Fíada - The Cloak of Invisibility
Manannán is seen as the guardian of the Otherworld and one who ferries souls to the afterlife - The Resurrection Stone
Manannán is a sea/water god with a horse who could run over water the same as land - a possible connection to the bridge and the river in the story.
Just something to think about.
