==Story==
==Story==
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
===''Kingdom Hearts II''===
When [[Sora]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] return to Port Royal to search for [[Organization XIII]], they discover that the Aztec treasure has once again been stolen and that [[Jack Sparrow]] has become an undead. They head towards [[Isla de Muerta]] to investigate, but are confronted by [[Luxord]], who summons the Grim Reaper to attack them. Though they throw it off the ''Black Pearl'' and into the sea, Luxord has his [[Gambler]] Nobodies steal some of the medallions. This activates the curse on the Grim Reaper and allows it to revive and knock the heroes onto the ''Interceptor'', which Luxord then sinks with cannon-fire. Once Sora and his friends get to land and recover the medallions, they come to the decision that Luxord must have taken the chest of medallions back to town. They follow him there, where they find the chest and an undead Grim Reaper. They manage to defeat the Grim Reaper, removing the curse on Jack, but Luxord takes the monster's heart and escapes through a [[Corridor of Darkness]].

In its normal form, the Grim Reaper is quite weak. Its only two attacks are swinging its scythe and teleporting to avoid damage. Under the Aztec curse, however, its power grows. Similarly to the [[Undead Pirate]]s, the Grim Reaper reacts negatively to Fire, Blizzard, and Thunder attacks, and will temporarily stop attacking when struck by one.
;Attacks
*'''Scythe Swing''': Wide swing with its scythe.
*'''Teleport''': Warps around the arena in a gust of wind to avoid damage.
*'''Fire Swing''': While undead, its scythe swing now shoots blue fireballs.
*'''Tornado''': Twirls its scythe overhead, creating a damaging tornado that sucks in nearby coins.
*'''Ghoul Pound''': Separates into three large ghouls that stomp around the field before delivering one big strike to the ground.


The Grim Reaper is first fought on the ''Black Pearl''. This is a simple fight, as it doesn't attack much and by now Sora should be at a high level. It occasionally warps elsewhere after taking damage. Simply use a combo attack, followed by a Drive form and the battle will end without much difficulty.

The second battle is harder, as when 881 or less coins are in the chest, the Grim Reaper can absorb the cursed Aztec Gold and become invincible. Be forewarned, that the Grim Reaper has a tendency of constantly taking the coins for its own.

Use the [[Reaction Command]]s '''Hinder''' and '''Loot Launch''' to stop it, and '''Return''' to return the treasure to the chest—each command will restore as many coins as Sora has collected. Making use of the [[Draw]] ability is also recommended (Follow the Wind, Draw Ring, etc.) to increase the range for collecting the medallions. To nullify its magic, it is best to use Thunder or [[Fire]], which can set the Grim Reaper ablaze. To keep it still, it is best to use Blizzard and it also requires less [[MP]]. It is a good idea to have Donald and Jack Sparrow in the party. Jack's bombs can also ignite the Grim Reaper and can cause it to run wildly, dropping gold wherever it goes. Donald's magic can also cause the Grim Reaper to drop gold. Be sure to equip Donald with the [[MP Rage]] ability, so any damage he takes from the Grim Reaper's attacks cause him to regain MP.

When reduced to 70% HP, it absorbs approximately 210 coins from the chest. When reduced to 30% HP, it absorbs all remaining coins from the chest and uses its '''Dance of the Dead''' attack. This attack can be avoided by standing on one of the boxes near the edge of the arena.

When all of the gold is returned to the chest the Grim Reaper will be vulnerable. It stomps around the field before delivering one strike to the ground and reverting to normal size. At this point, it'll be a little longer to nullify its invincibility as Sora needs to strip it of all the coins. To do this, just use magic attacks. If Sora runs out of MP, begin using physical attacks on the Grim Reaper to cause it to drop MP orbs.
