They are the sons of Nyx (the Night) and Erebus (the Darkness). 
Anyway, Hypnos is quite nice and idle. He lives in a dark cave with poppies in the entrance. The river of forgetfulness, Lethe, flows through his realm.

Drawing on my own knowledge of Greek Mythology, Thanatos was a God of Death, like the Grim Reaper, or the Shinigami of Shintoism. Thanatos' role was that of a Psychopomp, (lit. "guide of souls" -- See: [link]), and his fellow Greek Psychopomp deities are Charon, Hecate and Hermes, (who gained the role as a Psychopomp because, as a God of Tricksters, he could not be tricked, as Thanatos and Persephone were tricked by Sisyphus). What I mean is that Thanatos is not a God of the Dead, he was a God of Death. Macaria and Melinoe were both Goddesses of the Dead, representing those souls who got to go to the Elysian Fields, or those souls who wandered the earth respectively, and Macaria and Melinoe's father, Hades was the God of the realm of the Dead.
Hypnos was the of the Oneiroi, (Morpheus (Dreams), Phobetor (Nightmares), Phantasos/Phantasus (Inanimate objects in Prophetic dreams), and Ikelos (People in Prophetic dreams)), the four Gods of Dreams. (See: [link]). Will you possibly be doing any artwork reguarding these four in the future?
