History
Previously from the Middle Eastern Branch, Reever succeeded Komui Lee as the Chief of the European Branch Science Division, though Reever tends to bend to Komui's will when the Supervisor decides to act like he is still in charge of the division.

Introduction arc
Reever is first seen when Allen Walker is attempting to enter the Order, explaining to a stunned Komui that Allen might not actually be an outsider with Lenalee Lee elaborating that Allen has General Cross Marian's golem, Timcanpy. Reever then asks Komui if he knows what's going on. Reever directs Allen to take the Gatekeeper's examination, and when Allen fails Reever is about to order Number 65 to call several Exorcsits when Yu Kanda heads out.

Upon Allen's insistence that Komui should have gotten a letter, Komui has his desk searched, and when the letter is found Komui demands that Komui clean his desk as Komui, ignoring him, walks away, ordering Reever to stop Kanda. When Kanda demands an explanation, Komui pulls at Reever's headset to explain the situation to Kanda, to Reever's annoyance.

Later, when Allen settles in, Reever stops Allen and Kanda from fighting in the cafeteria in order to tell them that Komui has a mission for them. They head to Komui's office to find him asleep, whereupon Reever tells Komui that Lenalee is getting married, which makes Komui wake up immediately. Reever is then present when Komui wishes Allen good luck on his first mission.

Ghost of Mater arc
After Allen and Kanda have defeated the Akuma in Mater, Kanda calls the Order to report. Reever is seen briefly asking Komui to sign more paperwork, Komui then trying to drag Reever into his argument with Kanda.

The Black Order Attempted Annihilation Incident arc
When Komui invents an new Komlin to try to help with the workload, Reever is first skeptical, then horrified when the robot short-circuits and announces its plans to make Lenalee muscular. Reever manages to escape the Komlin's rampage with Lenalee, meeting up with Allen when the boy returns shortly after and explaining the situation. Reever then welcomes Allen home, making Allen nostalgic before they have to resume running from the maddened robot.

Komui then sets the robot on Allen, angering Reever as the man takes to protecting Lenalee, and just when Allen is about to use his recently evolved Innocence to destroy the Komlin, Komui shoots Allen with a tranquilizer dart, to Reever's horror. Reever tries to save Allen from the Komlin when it takes him into its surgery room, but the Komlin, with Allen secure, quickly sets its sights on Lenalee.

Lenalee awakens, and Reever tells her that Allen is trapped within the Komlin, which makes Lenalee attack it. As the Komlin tries to fight back, Reever mocks it, telling it that it can't hope to keep up with Lenalee with her Dark Boots invoked, and when Lenalee cleaves the Komlin open, Reever pulls a heavily bandaged and dazed Allen out, carrying him to safety.

Rewinding Town arc
Reever helps Komui explain a mission assignment to Lenalee and Allen, both of them being very vague and unsure as their information isn't solid.

The Vampire of the Old Castle arc
At the same time as Allen and Lavi are fighting the, apparently vampyric, Arystar Krory III, Johnny Gill approaches Reever while revewing some old case files, asking about one that Komui never signed off on that was never filed. Reever tells him to file it, but Johnny points out that it's over eight years old, and that it has to do with a vampire legend. Just then, Komui arrives, and when Reever asks him about it, Komui says that the case had nothing to do with Innocene, but that several Finders had "fallen pray" to the vampire. Ignoring the horror of their subbordinates, Komui then demands that Reever makes him coffee, and when Reever refuses, he and Komui get in an argument.

Later, when Lavi calls Headquarters to report the success of their mission, Reever is seen, again, bringing Komui more paperwork. After the phone call ends, Komui pretends to still be in the middle of a conversation, but Reever immediately sees through him.

Order in Crisis arc
When the bodies of six Exorcists and one hundred and forty-two Finders are returned to the Order, Reever solemnly gives the casualty report to Komui. Several men in the observing group begin wondering how they'll survive if Exorcists couldn't make it, and Reever tells them to shut up and respect those who have returned from the battlefield. Reever then goes into further detail for Komui about a few odd deaths, explaining that a few Exorcists had a few organs removed with no external damage done to their bodies. He then reports that they haven't heard from Suman Dark.

Suman Dark's Fallen arc
Upon arriving in China, Lenalee makes a call to Headquarters that is answered by Reever, who listens to her explanation of her group's plans to travel to Edo, Japan to look for Cross. Reever asks if Lenalee wants to talk to Komui, and when she says she hadn't asked because she had thought he couldn't come to the phone, Reever points out that he is asleep and wonders how she knew. Reever then tells her to be careful, making Lenalee cry when he says that he and the other members of the Science Division just want them to come home safely.

Not long after, Suman Dark returns as a Fallen One and Lenalee calls Headquarters again for council, Reever being present as Komui talks to her. When Johnny asks Reever for an explanation, Reever tells him that Suman's Innocence has taken over his body and that he will die within a twenty-four hour period, insisting when Johnny tearfully protests that Suman will die.

Edo and Asian Branch arc
When Exorcist Generals Winters Socalo and Klaud Nine return to the Order, Reever interrupts Komui's conversation with Bak Chang to make the announcement of their arrival.

Later on, during Lenalee's battle with the Akuma Eshi, Komui suddenly collapses (vaguely realizing a moment later that it might have something to do with Lenalee), worrying Reever and Johnny.

When Allen contacts the European Branch while using Noah's Ark for the first time, Reever is seen crying over knowing that Allen is okay.

Noah's Ark arc
When the Exorcists return from their battles in Edo and on the Ark, Reever is one of the many present to welcome them back. Later, with the Ark connecting the European Branch to Asian Branch, Reever is left babysitting Bak, who has started abusing the Ark in the name of "experimentation". When Johnny tries to point out that Bak doesn't have the authority to do what he's doing without Komui's permission, Reever silences him, but not before Sammo Han Won can start crying as he tries to get them to feel sympathy for Bak, who hasn't been allowed to see Lenalee (his not-so-secret crush).

Invasion of the Black Order arc
Once things have calmed down, Reever and his staff are left to study the newly obtained Akuma Egg, Reever apologizing to Lavi for not having the time to fix his Anti-Akuma Weapon. Soon after, Noah Lulu Bell invades the Science Division with an army of Level 3 Akuma, Reever getting injured and barely able to escape with his staff to attempt to construct makeshift Talismans until reinforcements arrive. When the Skulls begn killing the caputred members of the Science Division, Reever is tempted to go to try to save them, only to be stopped when Bak reasons with him that Allen should have noticed something wrong. Tup Dop, though, is turned into a Skull, and Reever, unable to handle it, draws his gun and shoots the lead Skull, demanding that it take him instead of his subbordinates. The Skull quickly makes to turn him into a Skull, as well, but just then Allen arrives and saves Reever.

A fight ensues, and Bookman, who has also arrived ith Allen, is captured, whereupon Reever quickly blocks his attackers with a Talisman. After the Akuma have been defeated and Allen suggests that the Science Division members be evacuated so they aren't poisoned by the noxious fumes the Akuma corpses are giving off, Reever insists that his men are taken out before him, wanting to go look for some of his other men who had been taken. As he is on his way there, a Level 4 Akuma is born, and Reever is gravely injured trying to save Johnny and detain it.

The Level 4 destroys the floor and Reever is presumed to be lost in the collapse, but is later shown to be alive, having been saved by Miranda Lotto and her "Time Out". Reever calls Komui and asks for the fires in their area to be put out, and Komui hurries to find help for them. Once the Level 4 has been defeated, Reever is taken in for medical care, Komui going to his side and Bak, nearby and also injured, compliments Komui on the grit of his subbordinates. Reever then asks Komui about Tup, and he, Johnny, Lenalee and Rob Neal are able to go to Tup's side just before he dies.

Several days later, Reever has recovered enough to help Komui see Cross off, Komui remarking to Reever after the General leaves that they have a lot to do and Reever agreeing.

Reever then helps Komui give a presentation explaining Lenalee's newly evolved, crystal type Innocence, Reever explaining in detail that the Innocence, while made of Lenalee's blood, isn't in her body, and that as long as she has blood in her body it should be able to repair itself.

Abilities and Skills
Vast Scientific Knowledge: As the Chief of the European Branch Science Division Section One, Reever is a very knowledgable scientist, the Science Division European Branch, itself, being a very difficult area to transfer into, thus inferring that the Science Division Chief would be part of the elite. Reever, himself, specializes in Chemistry, Mathematics and Linguistics.

Marksmanship: Reever is noted to be a skilled marksman, the practice of precision shooting being a hobby of his. He also seems to carry a gun on his person, presumably at most times, and is seen using it against a Skull, where he shot it cleanly through the temple from several yards away.

Trivia

 * Reever likes marksmanship and carbonated drinks and dislikes alcoholic drinks and superiors who don't work.
 * Reever was included in the game Jump Superstars.
 * It is mentioned that Reever drinks lemon flavored soda. This is because Komui kept mistaking Reever's cola for coffee.
