I've never actually reaped in a game before, so I can't say for certain.

[but what he can say, is. . .]

But I don't recall any of the Reapers in the came game I participated in Erasing a player directly. Don't get me wrong. The Game was dangerous, and not every Player made it out alive. But deaths-- ah, Erasures, I guess-- were always at the hand of the hands of Noise or dangerous dungeon traps.

Reapers were there as guides and support. Like NPCs, almost.
