History
Season 8
Sometime after losing his worshipers, he set up in Wyoming an auction, guarded by other, lesser pagan deities, that dealt in rare and exclusive items such as the Mjölnir and the Amulet of Hesperus, which he auctioned to his clientele. After a thief stole the Word of God, he was able to get hold of it and auctioned it.
After a bidding match between Crowley and Samandriel, he took Kevin Tran, and added him to the item, Kevin's mother sold her soul to him in exchange for both. Although Crowley offered more, he took Mrs. Tran's offer because it was worth far more to her than the souls were to Crowley. When Crowley tried to bargain with his own soul, Plutus laughed and taunted Crowley, saying the demon didn't have a soul.
Plutus is dead at the hands of Beau.
However, when the trade off came, he was betrayed by his assistant Beau, whom Crowley had bribed, who literally stabbed him in the back with a stake dipped in an unknown blood, killing the god.
