The Experimental War Robot-115 (EWR-115), callsign Reaper is a specialist in Call of Duty: Black Ops III. Reaper is a combat robot designed and manufactured by the Coalescence Corporation.
Biography
- "The product of a cutting-edge military R&D project to supplement Special Operations soldiers in the field, Experimental War Robot-115 was one of a single unit of advanced prototype combat robots running the most sophisticated AI software ever seen.
After several politically embarrassing mishaps and budget overruns, the project was cancelled and most of the prototypes were stripped for parts.
Fate had other plans for EWR-115, when years later it was discovered to have been stolen.
Reports of sightings of the terrible machine on battlefields around the world began to surface. No one knows why it fights or who, if anyone, is issuing its orders." - — Reaper's biography
Reaper, at least according to Prophet, displays signs of sentience; this is further supported by the fact that, while running a diagnostic run, he was discovered to have had several modifications that gave him orders from an unknown source. The orders were of an administrator type, so Reaper was unable to disobey these commands.
Prophet removed this coding from Reaper. Soon after, it was revealed that a group, the ones who stole and modified Reaper, were running an underground gambling ring paying out and betting astronomical sums over the machine's body count. Reaper arrived at the ring, unable to shut down due to Prophet's removal of the captors' coding. Reaper then slaughtered the ring members and became free of their control.
Due his robotic nature, Reaper rarely, if never, engages in conversations with other specialists. Despite this, he seems to recieved both respect and disapproval from other specialists. Spectre and Prophet both seem give Reaper admiration, while Outrider shows disaproval.
