R-Reaper Queen — Background & Lore
The R-Reaper Queen is the female 
Reaper of Genesis Part 2, the R version of the Aberration Reaper Queen. Players hunt her not to tame her, but because she is the only way to get an 
R-Reaper King.
Where to find it
She lives in 
Rockwell's Proliferation on Genesis Part 2, in ASE.
How to get one
The Queen herself is not tamed. Her impregnation attack is what matters: with a 
Reaper Pheromone Gland active, a hit from her plants a baby R-Reaper King in the player.
Uses
A source of R-Reaper King babies. She hits very hard, has a long tail swipe and spits webs, so fighting her is risky.
Tips
The creatures around her make the job dangerous. A bred 
Shadowmane is a good mount for the trip. Clear the area first and keep an exit open.
