Not to be confused with Reaver or Necromancer.

The Reaper is an enemy in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow. They resemble the common perception of Death. They often spawn in groups and can be spawned by the second Necromancer. They are encountered in the Necromancer's Abyss.

Background[]

Only powerful sorcerers can summon and control these dangerous spirits. The Reapers are a corporeal manifestation of Death itself, their aspect depends on the beliefs of those who confront them, but most people perceive the Reapers as skeletal figures with long tunics, wielding large scythes.

Strategy[]

Reapers spawn in groups (of four or more). They are fairly weak, as far as the amount of damage they can receive; however, their danger comes from their devastating attacks. One hit from a Reaper can take off a sizeable chunk of health. It's best to take them out quickly, and if there is room, fight them from a distance; do not let them get close.

Necromancer's Abyss trial[]

Finish the level after destroying 60 Reapers.

Trivia[]

  • The Reaper shares similarities with the Necromancer in the Lords of Shadow series, in that both enemies resemble common depictions of Death, being levitating skeletal beings shrouded in long, hooded robes, and holding either a scythe or a scythe-like staff.
