I had my wife pick up a bag of red plastic beads that were about $2 for 500 beads. The beads are the only thing I purchased. The wood is just a few branches from my yard broken up into 4-6' chunks with holes drilled in them. Then I spray painted them white and added some detailing with different shades of brown and black acrylic artists paint. Of course I couldn't use real human teeth, so I cut small pieces of foam rubber (again from an old baby puzzle mat toy that my boys outgrew years ago). I finished the look with a bead, wood, and human tooth garland. Then I tied a bunch of natural raffia (again sprayed darker with black and brown paint) to the top. I did some rough sewing with jute twine and fake leather (mine had a white, fuzzy back, so I hit it with black, brown, and red spray paint) to stitch the pleather together. I still needed a bit more to get the look I was after, so I added some fake leather strips and fringe. The Grim Reaper can be pleaded with as in Livin Large however, the chance of success is directly linked to the relationship score of the pleader to the deceased: if the total of the daily and lifetime relationship is below 25, the plea is guaranteed to fail.If it is above that level, the percentage chance of the plea succeeding is equal to that same number, which is capped at 90. This left the grooved in the curtain rod darkened and just slightly darkened the rest of the staff. I also heavily painted the staff with black spray paint and then wiped it off lightly with a rag. And since our Grimm Reaper actor will be 8 feet tall (on stilts), I had to splice the 2 x 2 with another to extend it an additional foot and a half. Where I live, I couldn’t find any 2 x 2 ‘s longer than 8 feet. After all the silver paint was finished I did some light coats of black and brown to give the metallic pieces a tarnished look. You can make your scythe as long as you want. After all was positioned, I hot glued them all in place and then spray painted them all silver, masking off my already painted blades and the top part of the staff. I used a few pieces of pipe insulation, a strip of rubber welcome mat (pieces left over from making home made bases), and pieces of foam bowling pins from my sons' old kiddie bowling set that they don't use any more. Then I found some random stuff lying around the house to give the top some coutour. I used a silver acrylic artists paint mixed with a little black to paint the details on the blades, including the 'sharp' edge effect. I didn't and the paint scratches off easily =( Once it was all painted I decided it needed some decoration.

The two piece hardwood handle is a startling 80 inches long with a. NOTE: It would help to sand the smooth pergo surface before painting. This is a life sized replica of the worlds most recognizable adversary, the reaper scythe. Once all pieces were attached I spray painted the blades and top part of the rod silver. I cut the pergo into the shape of the blades with my rotary saw, sanded everything smooth, and then attached them to the handle by cutting a slit into the top of the curtain rod, drilling holes through all the pieces, and bolting them together. They scythe is made from an old 8' length of wooden curtain rod I had lying around and a plank of pergo flooring I grabbed out of someone's trash after a remodeling job. hopefully they can serve as inspiration to some others.

I didn't take pictures as I was going for a full instructable since I was making it up as I went along, but here are some pictures of the finished product. Like Arcane Binding, Reaper's Scythe is self-cast and requires you to spend a turn doing nothing, taking full damage from enemies.As part of my costume this year I built a scythe. Resurrection enemies in particular can only revive allies with partial health, making healing easy. The best use of Reaper's Scythe is against enemies that summon minions or resurrect allies, as they provide fresh targets for the armor bonus.

Combining this with Aspect of the Beast can make you virtually invincible. Its more prized trait is the ability to increase your armor by one point, essentially giving you the damage reduction of Vortex. Even later on, its level 7 healing is only equal to using Regrowth, which hardly negates damage as well as Absorb Pain. Although doing this is not difficult, the spell does not provide very much healing at the initial levels, rarely resulting in a health profit after a battle even in conjunction with other healing spells. Reaper's Scythe is an unusual spell due to the fact it requires the player to kill enemies with a physical attack in order to reap the benefits.
