Can my name you guess.

I am always there.
Never there to scare.
Using guile.
With a smile.

Your life I will never take.
Your bones I will never break.
Your mortal life I will enhance.
Perhaps with a game of chance.

Your soul I will try to take.
A deal to make.
Service with a smile.
And a lot of style.

Dressed with the greatest of taste.
Clothes not meant to be chaste.
Wealth without bounds.
I run with both hare and hounds.

Dressed to kill.
With no blood to spill.
Being around for all time.
I even watched you crawl from the slime.

I was there when the trenches filled with blood.
Like a great red flood.
I am there for any reign of terror.
Waiting for your error.

And when your final life is run.
The last coil undone.
The last stance.
Your soul I will lance.

My names are legion.
Changing with the region.
Can my name you guess.
In this great game of chess.
