== The Reapers' goal is Absolute Despair. ==
* That is to say, the Reapers are [[Well -Intentioned ExtremistsExtremist]]s who believe that organic life, left unchecked, will spread like wildfire, consuming resources like mad, and rapidly ascending the technology ladder until they threaten the destruction of the universe.
