Reaper-17
From Command and Conquer Wiki
Reaper-17 is a sub-faction of the Scrin. They are the 17th (and most violent) sect of the Cult of the Reaper. Like the rest of the cult, its goal is to aggressively destroy anything that hinders progress. This sect specializes in ground warfare.
Among the Scrin, Reaper-17 is an outcast sect of the Scrin society. They self-mutilate their bodies and have mutated. Their insanity, violence, and cruelty is perhaps a result of excessive Tiberium infusion. Their first contact with humans (confirmed) was when Nod launched a strike to recover the Tacitus from GDI ZOCOM in China.
