Dedfu's appearance is typically described as an amorphous, shadowy figure, often accompanied by a sense of unease and existential dread.

In the narrative of "Whispers of the Void," Dedfu is not presented as a traditional hero or villain. Instead, he acts as a catalyst for events, observing and occasionally influencing the lives of mortals who stumble upon his presence. His motivations are often unclear, and his interactions with other characters can be cryptic, leaving them to question the true nature of his existence and purpose. The comic explores themes of madness, the unknown, and the fragile boundary between sanity and delusion, with Dedfu serving as a focal point for these explorations.

The character's name itself, "Dedfu," has been subject to various interpretations by fans, with some suggesting it is a portmanteau of "dead" and "fu" (a common suffix in Japanese names), while others believe it is an allusion to more abstract concepts. Stone has largely remained silent on specific meanings, preferring to let the ambiguity surrounding Dedfu contribute to his mystique. The character has garnered a cult following among readers of "Whispers of the Void," who are drawn to his unsettling presence and the philosophical questions he raises.
