"The shadowy blade is a technique not oft used... Some have mastered it and are fearsome opponents but they never do stick around. Be careful around them... their blades only get stronger with each kill."  -The Tome of Forgotten Knowledge, Page 114

Reapers are fearsome warriors who use shadow to damage their opponents. With mysterious weapons seemingly made of their opponent's fears, they control large crowds and increase their power. Many a soul has died to one, and once a soul is lost, it can never return. The Reapers capture these souls inside of their body, which gives them much strength.

Not much is known about the Reaper association, as any who has lived one of their massacres dis just as soon as they escape. The reason for this is not known, but scholars have been pouring over ancient texts trying to learn how this is possible.

Time's Up

You gain this feature when you choose this subclass, or at 3rd level. When you make an attack, roll a d6. On a 1-5, you implant the curse onto the person which you attacked. If you are not killed within 10 rounds, the person whom you have cursed must take 20d10 necrotic damage. On a 6, you gain temporary hit points equal to the amount your foe has and gain one point of exhaustion per turn. Once you have 4 points, you must wait until you finish a long rest to use this feature.

Time's Up Improvement

You gain this feature at 10th level. When someone is under your Time's Up, they are blinded for the duration of the effect. The only thing that they can see is you, and all they can attack is you. In addition, they disappear from view and appear only to you. Walls are outlined by white, so they don't run into those, and they are immune to all damage except from you. You can only have this special Time's Up on one monster at a time.

Shadow Blades

This feature is unlocked at 15th level. You gain shadowy blades pulsating around you. If a enemy makes a melee attack, they take 2d8 necrotic damage. If they make a ranged attack, the ammunition used crumbles into dust. You still take the damage, though. As an action, you can move the blades up to 60 ft. away from you. This can still bestow Time's Up. The blades each do 2d8 necrotic damage, but at 250+, they deal 10d8 damage.
