==Charactieristics==
Grim reapers are [[Material family|scarecrow]] monsters that have been patched together with red and yellow cloth, holding a dark green scythe that is much taller than them. They are particularly adept when it comes to debilitating spells and abilities, making them deadly opponents when faced in combination with other monsters. In Japanese, it is named after [[Wikipedia:Mephistopheles|Mephistopheles]], a demon that appears in German folklore and the chief devil in the Faust legend.
