Simply put, Hades was a God of the Underworld, comparable to Midir of the Celts. After dying, a person entered the Underworld by first travelling through the groves of Persephone, onto the gates of Hades which were guarded by the three-headed dog Cerberus, a lot like the Norse "watchdog of hell", Garm.
Being the ruler of the Underworld, Hades was naturally the God of
Death, but he was also the God of prosperity and wealth. He could be
terrifying or generous depending on where one stood in his favour. The
way one kept on his good side was by offering him black sheep.
Hades didn't get around much, preferring to stay home in the
Underworld, a vast underground kingdom of caves and tunnels, with his
wife Persephone to whom he was faithful.
