A Reaper King is born from a player impregnated by a Reaper Queen.
Taming a Reaper King requires the special passive method. You must provoke a Reaper Queen in Aberration's radioactive zones and let her drop your health below 10% to trigger impregnation. After escaping, survive until gestation completes and claim the baby Reaper. The baby only eats Nameless Venom, so stockpile it before taming.
