'''Reaper''' is the eighth boss of ''[[Rayman: The Dark Magician's Reign of Terror]]''. He's the [[ghost]] king of the [[Brutal Burialground]], hiding his visage behind a plague doctor mask and a dark hat, and wielding a scythe.

==In ''[[Rayman: The Dark Magician's Reign of Terror]]''==
{{quote|text=I could let [[Rayman|you]] pass... But the [[Dark Magician]]... He has ordered me to take you down...|sign=Reaper|source=''[[Rayman: The Dark Magician's Reign of Terror]]''}}

The Reaper is first encountered in the second part of [[Castle of the Ghosts]], appearing without any warning to sneakily attack [[Rayman]]. Throughout this section, Reaper will attack by materializing next to [[Rayman]] to slash him with his scythe, repeating the assault about every ten seconds.

[[Rayman]] finally talks to Reaper in the final part, but the [[ghost]] king says that while he would let [[Rayman|the hero]] pass, the [[Dark Magician]] tasked him to take down [[Rayman]], thus beginning his fight.
The Reaper will attack repetitively by teleporting behind [[Rayman]] to slash him, doing so five times in a row. Subsequently, six tall [[Fire|flames]] will burst from the cracks on the ground, and Reaper will remain still in the air, becoming vulnerable to damage.

Like every other boss in the game, the Reaper has a health bar of twenty points, but he has actually seven health points in total as any hit reduces it by three points. After getting hurt three times, the Reaper's [[Fire|flames]] will spit [[Fire|fire balls]] upwards endlessly, making it impossible to jump between them without taking damage.
During the whole confrontation, [[Rayman]] can avoid taking any damage by staying clear of the cracks and remaining in crawling position, as the Reaper's scythe cannot reach him this way. A [[Simple Power]] can be found in the right corner of the area to further facilitate the challenge.

After seven successful hits, the [[ghost]] king vanishes, leaving five [[coin]]s behind. The Reaper will reappear if [[Rayman]] later returns to the [[Castle of the Ghosts]], but the player can skip the boss battle by pressing the Enter key.

The Reaper is mentionned a final time by the [[Dark Magician]] when entering the [[Fiery Fort]], baffled at [[Rayman]]'s survival and blaming himself for trusting a [[ghost]].
