Outside of Vale's walls, lies a small, ruined town known as Whitewood. Years ago, the city of Vale had lost contact with Whitewood and sent three teams of its best hunters to discover what had caused the silence. It was thought that maybe a horde of beowolves had ravaged the town, but what the twelve found was much worse. When they first arrived at the town, the first thing they found were the bodies, torn apart and scattered everywhere. There were no survivors. The only thing of note was a small slip of paper found being clutched by a severed hand. It read: "No point in running, you'll only die tired." The three teams proceeded inside the nearby forest, hoping to catch up to what they still believed to be a group of beowolves and avenge the innocent killed.

The following is a message sent by one of the hunters: "(Indistinct yelling and gunshots can be heard in the background) We found it! We found what attacked Whitewood... and it's tearing us apart. (A girl screams in the background, before being suddenly silenced by the sickening sound of crunching bone) Tori! Dammit! It's already gotten team RAYN and half of NITE's gone. Team MRVL's the only ones at full strength. (More yelling and gunshots can be heard) We've never seen anything like it. I think it has some advanced senses or something, because it immediately saw Nathaniel, even with his invisibility semblance. None of our attacks are even piercing it's hide. I... I don't think we're going to make it out of here. (A voice in the background tells someone to duck, right before the sound of a large explosion) Don't come back here. No matter what you do, don't go anywhere near Whitewood. This is Marvin, leader of team MRVL, signing off. (An inhuman roar echoes in the background before the message finally ends)

There have never been any reports of The Reaper, as the radio operator called it after picking up the message, ever leaving the Snowy Forest where Whitewood had been settled. Suspecting that the knowledge of such a Grimm existing would send the general public into a panic, information about The Reaper is known only to huntsmen and huntresses who are sent anywhere near the Snowy Forest where it likes to hunt.
