The Grim Reaper is a boss from Kingdom Hearts II.

Posing as the second boss from Port Royal, the Grim Reaper is a Heartless that is summoned by the Nobody Luxord to acquire the treasure of Isla de Muerta. Sora and company battled it twice--first aboard the Black Pearl, and then at the docks of Port Royal. During the second battle, it is invincible when treasure is out of its chest; when Sora uses Magnet to bring the medallions back into the chest, the Grim Reaper becomes vulnerable.

Despite its name, the Grim Reaper resembles an Aztec statue swinging a blade pendulum. However, this fits the Aztec theme of the first Pirates of the Caribbean film on which the events of the first visit to Port Royal were based on. Furthermore, his appearance, minus the pendulum, appears to be based on the (real-life) Aztec god of death Mictlantecuhtli.

Although game play in the American version of Kingdom Hearts II was edited so undead pirates wouldn't catch on fire, the Grim Reaper still catches fire.

Journal Entry

A Heartless that appeared in Port Royal, it was said to be born from the curse of the Aztec gold.

Using the curse to become undead, it became a ghoul, making it hard to be defeated.
