In Norse mythology, Hel, goddess of the Underworld, presides over and receives a portion of the dead. Hel also decides who is reborn, and represents both death and life. Hel is the daughter of Loki and sister of Fenrir, both of whom she was isolated from at birth by Odin in order to prevent Ragnarok, an apocalyptic battle of the gods.
The phrase "Go to hell", quite literally meant meet Hel after death when it was first used. This is because as spirits are brought to Hel, she decides who to reincarnate and who to banish to the Underworld.
Hel appears in the online game SMITE with the ability to both heal and unleash destructive power upon her enemies.
