Born from the violent collision of ancient creek spirits and modern industrial disruption, the Ripple Reaper emerged when construction equipment fell into the sacred spawning grounds, trapping a worker's soul within the disturbed waters. Now it hunts through ripple patterns, each concentric circle marking another victim claimed by its supernatural blade.

The Ripple Reaper can traverse any connected water system instantaneously, appearing wherever ripples disturb the surface. Its presence creates distinctive concentric ripple patterns that spread outward in perfect geometric precision, serving as both hunting tool and territorial marker. The entity wields a rusted construction blade that phases between dimensions, striking through water as easily as air.

The Ripple Reaper serves as the creek system's most active predator, systematically hunting players who disturb the water during fog-shrouded rounds. It escalates confrontation by turning every disc splash into a potential death sentence, forcing players to choose between accuracy and survival.
