Description
Well, it's Halloween again. This isn't really a Halloween rider as I did before, just that the idea kinda fit with the timing. This is Kamen Rider Reaper, and as his name suggests, he is based off the Grim Reaper (and slightly the Headless Horseman). As such, he's not your typical heroic rider. In the spirit of spooky tales and nursery rhymes, I actually came up with a legend to go with him:There once was a man, wooed by all evil
Who rode like the wind from Sleepy Hollow.
When put on trial, he received the noose
So his body fell to hell, lost and loose.
From the flames emerged the wicked devil
Who sent the soul back, and hate did follow.
With this new chance, he haunts all the liars
As Hell's very own, a Kamen Rider.
I know the little rhyme's not great, but it was something fun and different to associate with a new rider. Hope you all liked it.
His standard form is on the left. As a grim reaper, he always has his scythe with him. The whole design of the suit is meant to be spooky, kinda like a armored skeleton of sorts. The eyes were a tough decision, but I think orange worked the best, especially with the flames. If you look closely on the left suit, you'll see markings on various parts of his suit. When Kamen Rider Reaper is about to execute his finishing move, these markings start burning, giving Reaper his powered up armor, termed Blazing Reaper. This also affects his scythe, which also gets flames. The more blade part of the scythe stays a blade while the back part (facing the leg) becomes a type of throwing weapon (like a lacrosse stick). Although the flames took me a very long time to do, I really like how they turned out.
Everything here is my hard work. Please don't touch anything without permission. Thanks. Happy Halloween!

Maybe it's just me, but Reaper's first form reminds me of Kuuga Ultimate, and his eyes Kiva Emperor. But I love the idea of a grim reaper rider.
Why can't Toei take a look at these. This would be awesome.

So, uhh, here's something kind of creepy I just noticed about this guy.
Look at the scythe,
Flip it upside down.
It looks like a roosting crow.
Flock of crows is called a murder.
Fitting.

Totally planned. Not at all a happy design accident. Very purposefully created that way.

He'd be kinda like Spawn. Not your typical heroic protagonist, looking for revenge, etc. But not necessarily evil.

Interesting. A fan-made anti hero Rider, somewhat similar in personality to Saga, KickHopper, or that new Rider, Poseidon. Nice! This one's a keeper! (faves)

It's a simple belt like Kuuga and Agito, just wraps around the waist and allows him to henshin. None of these dumb recent gimmicky things.

Nice design but i kinda dislike the idea he's Evil for once i'd like to see a Grim Reapoer who is lawful nutral, it's his jobs to guide the dea,d good or ill, to their final resting place...it's funny but Last Action Hero got it best

Sounds like you would like Bleach. KR Reaper's not evil, per say. In his life, he was tempted by evil, may have done some petty crimes here and there, but nothing major. He was framed/set up and executed. This leads him to become a vengeful spirit as KR Reaper. By "haunting the liars", he's really only looking to uncover the conspiracy that ended in his death and take out those responsible. Yes, this was all made possible by the devil, but that doesn't make KR Reaper evil. Just that evil has given him a chance for redemption.

I have watched bleach but it takes the reaper and turns him into a hero fighting monsters, KR Reaper sounds like Spawn now.
What i want is that wise, nutral figure from Last Action Hero who does not judge but rather had a job to do, Dead Like Me handled it prety good but treated it like a comedy

Yup, a vengeful force more than heroic responsibility.

That movie was an abomination. The one part I truly like is near the end where Ghost Rider (Johnny Blaze) and Old Ghost Rider (Carter Slade) hop on their bike and horse respectively, with Blaze saying "Let's Ride!" and turning to his rider form. That part gets me every time.

I highly doubt that, nor can I believe that you believe that, haha. Superman is much more iconic than Ghost Rider, and Nicolas Cage would've bombed as such an iconic character.

I'm not really familiar with Stronger, but possibly. From what I know, I liken it to Kabuto's 'Clock Up' mode. It's not really a change of form, just an accessibly power up that makes it easier/sometimes the only way to beat an enemy. If that makes sense.
