Outland ReaVers [REVER]

Reavers are purely savage, brutal and primal. Their contact with other humans appears limited to combat, torture and murder, and no dialogue has ever been shown; yet amazingly, they are never shown in conflict with each other, suggesting that they have retained some intelligence. Even more strangely, they can still cooperate and act purposefully enough to use spaceships and set highly technological traps.

Reavers are known to raid ships and colonies to loot, kill, skin and cannibalize anyone they find. They are known for their delight in eating live human flesh. They also growl and snarl like beasts.Their methods are considered so horrifying that, when faced with capture, their victims almost always attempt suicide, and mercy killings of those who fall into the hands of Reavers are considered humane. The Reavers do occasionally intentionally leave survivors of their raids, but they drive these survivors mad through forcing them to watch the torture of those they were with, effectively turning them into second-hand Reavers. The Reavers also severely mutilate themselves (i.e., by cutting themselves, peeling off their skin, and/or sticking bits of metal into their flesh).

They live in macabre ships stained with blood and decorated with corpses chained to the hulls. Seemingly, they live their whole lives in space, only touching down on a planet or moon to raid whomever lives there.
