Happy Birthday, Reach. This slenderblog is a peculiar gem even amongst the general strangeness that makes up the slender-community at large. The central protagonist is an Anti-Hero Reach, a former Revenant (aka, an elite trooper in Slender Man's army of darkness) who served Slender Man loyally for forty years.He wasn't always this way, though. He was originally a young man called Raymond Shaughnessy from Ireland who became haunted by Slender Man, but was offered the chance to join him and thus protect his fiancee Ariana and their unborn child. So he agreed to Slim's terms and was thus twisted and morphed into a Revenant; an unaging, super-strong, hypersensitised Humanoid Abomination. He said it was very painful. From there, he did Slendy's bidding more and more willingly with each passing year for four decades, harassing, attacking and killing Runners and Conduits (humans with the ability to channel the same energy that gives Slendy his power). One of his victims was Thage of Peering In From The Outside.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In 2010, when the Slenderblogs became a community, Slendy ordered his pawn to register at blogspot and keep tabs on the the Runners and such. This, however, backfired when conversing with the bloggers (Amelia in particular, especially on the subject of his fianceé's death, but also Robert, Zero and Nessa) caused Reach to have a Heel–Face Turn and eventually rebel against his master and go on the run on December 4th. He was running alone for about a month and a half before a series of events lead to him almost having a Heroic BSoD and giving up. However, he was talked out of it by Thage and decided to team up with The London Librarian, Ava, investigating theories about Slender Man and seeking out a weapon that might be able to destroy the Slender Man. This did not go well.After narrowly escaping Slender Man and Redlight in Ireland, Reach was rendered human again and the two traveled to America to help Robert Sagel and the Delmont Family, which ultimately resulted in Reach caring for a comatose Ava at Thage's house for several weeks.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Also Reach revealed that things of Slender Man's sphere of influence, such as wood, are harmful to him when defiled and turned against him i.e. a sealed room with a wooden door is like a separate universe and Slendy finds it very difficult to get inside them. However, most importantly, he revealed that certain humans called Conduits have the natural ability to channel the energy of the Dark World where Slendy lives, an ability that could potentially allow a Conduit to physically harm Slender Man. It's also implied that the secret of the quarry, which Reach used to guard, is something which can harm Slendy. The secret was a powerful artifact called the Heel that allowed certain humans to channel Slender Man's own power against him. It was destroyed by Redlight.

Achilles' Heel: See Super Senses.
