When offensive, the petals of the bud open, revealing a humanoid head and torso, wearing a jacket with oversized, pointed shoulders and long pointed hood of faded pink. It also wears wide, elbow-length mittens that fade from pink to white. In battle, it wields a scythe similar to Marluxia's [[Graceful Dahlia]], with a large, pink blade with an upturned tip and multiple spikes resembling the Nobody emblem.

Their name is derived from the ''Final Fantasy'' {{ff|Grim Reaper (entity)|Grim Reaper}} entity, who like Marluxia wields a scythe and is associated with [[Doom]] spells. They are also the only high-ranking Nobodies not named after a job class at the time of their debut: the scythe-wielding {{ff|Reaper (Final Fantasy XIV)|Reaper}} job did not appear until ''{{ff|Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker}}'', two years after the release of ''Kingdom Hearts III''.

When fighting Reapers, it is a good idea to make frequent use of [[Fire]] magic, which Reapers are weak to, in order to deal a hefty amount of damage from a distance. Fire magic can also be used to interrupt the Reapers while they are warping, using Flare Dance, or getting ready to use Thorn Whip. Watch for when the Reapers are frequently warping around, as this signals their next attack.
After hitting its revenge value, the Reaper will warp away and counterattack with either Leaf Slash or Flare Dance. After counterattacking twice, the Reaper's revenge value will not increase for 20 seconds.
Consider using magic or simply dodging when the Reapers use their Leaf Slash attack, as their unpredictable movement pattern can cause you to mistime a block and get hit as a result.
The [[Frying Pan]] formchange deals fire damage with its basic combos, making it an ideal formchange for close combat against the Reapers since fire damage can bypass their revenge value. This means that they won't be able to break out even when their revenge value reaches it's threshold.
