Is there any way to use Reaper as a real-time voice modulation program?

Specifically, I'm trying to use reaper as an alternative to certain real-time voice modulation programs out there, because they either don't have what I'm looking for or have the tendency to crash hard. What I want is for the modified audio from Reaper to be used as the input into other programs such as Skype, Curse Voice, etc. Sounded simple on paper, but I haven't really figured any way to accomplish it. Is there any way to accomplish this without too much more equipment?

Yeah, all you need is some kind of a software or virtual mixer. Google that, I think "virtual cable" is a thing. You want the path to be mic->Reaper channel->vst effects->Reaper master out->Skype

That's it, after spending like 4 hours trying to get it to work with a combination of other programs, it seems Virtual Audio Cable is the easiest solution for it.

You could do it using jack (Jack Audio Connection Kit). It will allow you to route audio from Reaper to another software and vice versa. Jack (just like Reaper) will work on Mac, Windows and Linux.
