Reaper

A hulking, heavily armored revenant powered by a burning core where its head once was, the Reaper wields a massive molten hammer that leaves fiery trails with every swing. Each crushing blow delivers unstoppable force, making it one of the most terrifying enemies.

OVERVIEW:
The Reaper is a boss-tier enemy designed to test a player’s skill, positioning, and preparation. Slow but immensely powerful, it combines extreme durability with devastating melee attacks that can end fights in just a few mistakes.

Enemy Profile: Reapers are among the most dangerous foes encountered in The Forge. Their heavy armor allows them to absorb significant damage, while their hammer swings create fiery afterimages that punish late dodges and poor positioning.

Unlike standard melee enemies, the Reaper controls space through persistent fire damage, forcing players to constantly reposition and plan their movements carefully.
