Dice with Death/Reaper

By BanthaFodder, in Talisman

Had a look at the Reaper card and had a thought.

I must admit I don't have the Reaper expansion so it may say in the rules...

but what happens on the Dice with Death space if the Reaper is in play ?

I presume nothing at all and the two are not connected in any way, although surely they are the same character....

Does anyone play that the Reaper teleports back to the Dice with Death space whenever a character arrives there ?

If you did that, I guess you would only progress if your character avoided missing a turn or losing a life..

.. but where would the Reaper go next if you were succesful ?

I must admit Iaughed at the options for the Reaper... Is there also a Salmon Mousse card...

The Reaper (as in the moving figure) I see as a manifestation of Death. I guess he's tired of waiting for people to come and dice with him (especially, since pre-Fate that route saw action "once in a 100 games" ratio). Or he's tired of the stale air of the Inner Region and sends an avatar out for fresh air.

Now that you mention it. It's a little weird if you come on Death's space in the inner region, while the Reaper figure is still on the board somewhere.

So actually there are 2 Reapers on the board at that moment. One on the space and one as a figure.

Maybe that FFG can make a rule for that, so that the Reaper teleports to that space.

it's good that you made this topic. I hope that FFG will take a look at this.

Reaper rules state that Reaper can't cross the Portal of Power, so if you'd teleport him to the DwD space when a char lands there, he couldn't get back out again, making everyone on the Middle and Outer Regions safe from him. IIRC, it's also been stated/ruled that Reaper won't/can't teleport to char in the Inner Region if you roll a 5 for the Reaper.

Yeah , but maybe they can made a new rule for it. You never know.

So that the reaper can warp to the inner space and back again to the old space.

Then it would overide the rule that the reaper can't get in the inner region gui%C3%B1o.gif

Rulesheet says that the Reaper figure and Death in the Inner Region are the same. The Reaper figure cannot cross the Portal of Power because she's always in the Inner Region, on the Dice with Death space.

Then there are actually 2 active reapers, if one character stand on the place to dice with death ,and the other player rolls a 1 on the middle and outer region lengua.gif

I think it's quite easy to beleive that the Reaper can be in two places at once, especially in a Fantasy world.
