Arriving in the Lemure Headquarters in Steps of Nald, they met Drusilla, the leader of Lemures, who asked the Warrior to help protect their new life in Eorzea by becoming a mercenary and hunting down voidsent. The Warrior of Light met with a member of the Lemures in Ul'dah, where they learned that the Lemures were turncoat Garleans that aimed to live humbly among the Eorzean population. The advent of magitek made Reapers obsolete, and when some were discovered to be insurrectionists against the Emperor, the tradition was outlawed entirely. After Emperor Solus rose to power the Reapers were a special unit that aimed to assassinate the Empire's adversaries, be it from other nations or their own people, before conflict happens. Thus the Reapers were born.Īfter Garlemald as a nation was established, Reapers began training in the village of Lapis Manalis and served in the army of the Garlean Republic. In this harsh region they lived in miserable conditions, forcing the farmers to take their gathering sickle as weapon and allying with voidsents to transcend their inability to use aether. The region was contested heavily between the Ilsabardian nations and eight hundred years ago, the Garleans were chased from their warm home into the frigid regions of northern Ilsabard. The Garleans originally lived as humble farmers on the bountiful region of southern Ilsabard. In the early days of the Empire, they originally served a role not too dissimilar from the Dark Knights of Ishgard as shadow assailants against corrupt individuals with power. They also protect Garlean refugees who have grown sick of the Empire's evil and fled to Eorzea, whom they refer to as their family. They keep their identity as Garleans secret and serve as swords for hire for the people of Ul'dah, as well as hunting voidsent. Lemures means "spirits of the dead" in the Garlean tongue. The Reapers have an order known as the Lemures in Ul'dah led by Drusilla. In Endwalker, Zenos Galvus changes his job to Reaper. Reapers utilize weaponskills to absorb souls from their enemies to fuel their enhanced weaponskills, which are then used to fuse the Reapers with their voidsent avatar to access the Enshrouded form, allowing access to even more devastating combos.
