He grants each of the brothers a wish. Antioch wished for a wand that could never lose for its master; the Elder Wand was then formed by Death. Cadmus wished for a stone that could resurrect the dead, thus the Resurrection Stone was created. Ignotus wished for something that could hide him from Death. Death then gave Ignotus his own Cloak of Invisibility. Eventually Death found and killed Antioch and Cadmus Peverell. Death then searched many years, but could not find Ignotus Peverell.
