Have you ever seen the face of Death?
Paranormal Order RPG Playbook
The Spiral Reaper is a mysterious and extremely powerful paranormal manifestation of Death with complement of Fear. Its nature is largely unknown, with the few reports about this creature coming from people who, at the end of life, not only felt the feeling of seeing life passing in front of their own eyes, but also saw these moments spiralizing and taking shape, becoming a silhouette, and then realizing that their memories were in the end being devoured by the Spiral Reaper.
All those who experienced this moment and lived somehow (by the process of reanimation or things like that) seem to have become obsessed with the idea of immortality, and with the possibility of one day seeing the face of that being again. There are records of isolated civilizations describing what physically appeared to be the Reaper’s description, but the vast majority of this evidence appears to have been erased, as if they had been disintegrated, leaving behind only a giant desert of ashes, with dunes in spiral shape.
Because of these facts, the only conclusion that there is of this creature is that if it exists, everything that refers to it is totally taken by death, leaving only the ashes and ooze behind.
Appearance[]
The Reaper is a large hunchback and skeletal figure, with a skull and a chest of a human skeleton beneath a large gray hood that covers its head and back, a hood that moves and contorts like a spiral, extending to the ground like Ooze itself. From beneath its cloak and from within its rotten ribs, several arms and legs of different sizes appear to be randomly arranged. The Reaper, however, has two larger main arms that give more strength to hold its huge scythe, along with its smaller arms.
Behaviour[]
Little is known about its motivations, only that when the Spiral Reaper manifests in Reality, it will take everything and everyone around it. No living being will remain alive and no structure will stand, just leaving these "deserts of ashes" formed by dunes in the shape of spirals.
Arsenal[]
| Scythe | A twisted scythe that emanates an aura of Death, having a long gray handle with a huge blade. Between them there's a huge Death spiral made of Ooze that connects both parts. |
