SOS may not be held responsible of the souls of anyone who fails to accept these terms and condition. This Reaper survival review brought to you by THE REAPER in residence.

Whether an angel, a Shinigami or just a garden-variety ghost with a grim job, Reapers are a real menace most of us will face at some point in our lives. The very last point, for many of us.

But it doesn’t have to be. I faced one last week and I’m still here, 99.98% unreaped. Living proof Reapers can be defeated – but only if you stop to reap some facts first:

Fact #1: 

Reapers cannot classically cause your death. Some are indeed capable of initiating a chain of events that may lead to your demise – more about that below – but mostly they’re just hanging around waiting for it to happen. In either case, this means you have some time. Time for what? Read on.

Fact #2:

Reapers, like other employed or enslaved ethereal beings, vary in terms of their level of job satisfaction and interest. And like most of us, they love to complain about their work. You can use this to your advantage! Get them talking. Your death may not mean as much to them as you think. You may be able to strike a deal or at least delay long enough to plan your escape. Get creative! What do you have to offer besides your soul?  Try gold, says THE REAPER. 

Fact #3:

Whatever the being reaping on you, remember this – he’s working from a list. A list with your name on it exists somewhere. This list is in fact the source of her power and authority over your soul and in some cases, could be the cause of death. Either way ask to see the list. Where a name has been written, a name can be removed and/or changed. Can you get a hold of that list?

Once you succeed in getting the list, you will obviously want to add your Reaper’s name to the top of it but remember, you need:

1. The proper spelling of your Reaper’s real name and

2. An accurate image of your Reaper’s face at the time of writing her name.

Unfortunately, your Reaper will not exactly be wearing a name tag and will likely have his face obscured.

Also, being in possession of a real Reaper’s list is entails a lot of danger and responsibility so you should be prepared for the beings who will come looking for it.

Fact #4:

Reapers normally carry a soul vessel of some description. It may be brass or glass or stone or  jewel. They may be wearing or carrying it. Whatever it is, without this vessel, with no way to transport your soul he can’t cash in on it. So go for the vessel. Just be prepared that it may already contain other souls for which you will now be responsible.

With many thanks to THE REAPER for sharing the tricks of his trade over the past month here on SOS.  Here’s to you sir, keep on reaping on. Got another fun fact about Reapers?
