Status Updates From Neil Gaiman and Philosophy:...

In Good Omens, Gaiman's description of War is vastly different. She (not he) is known as Scarlett, who has made a killing by selling arms to various (and typically, all) sides of conflicts worldwide; later (after getting bored of her profession) she is known as Carmine "Red" Zuigiber, the most successful war correspondent there was, who has an uncanny talent of going where wars will be. She still wears red.

According to Death, here's how her first day of mortality ended: After the first day I was alive, when I met me, I turned to me and I told me I was a cold-hearted, stuck-up, frigid bitch. Only I didn't say it anywhere as nicely. And I got the message. You see, when someone's died, mostly they're a bit shaken, or hurt, or angry, or worse. And all they need is a kind word, and a friendly face. (Vertigo: Winter's Edge)
