Who they are
Rio is the Witches' Road's most dangerous walker and the show's reveal: not a witch at all but Death itself, and Agatha's ex. Their relationship is the series' spine — a woman who loved Death, cheated her out of every witch she ever drained, and is finally asked to pay.

From the comics
Thanos courted her for decades
Marvel's Death is a cloaked woman who never speaks, and the reason Thanos does anything: the Infinity Gauntlet is a love letter. The show borrows the entity, gives her a name and a face, and hands her a very different relationship.
