Description:
The Grimm are undead spirits that are theorized to be the lingering ghosts of animals that perished. These grotesque spirits walk the world unseen by its mortal inhabitants and guide other animals to the afterlife when they pass. While they rarely interfere with the mortal realm, they can choose to make themselves seen. Their reasons for revealing themselves are a mystery, but those who have seen them claim that the presence of the Grimm filled them with both an intense sense of peace as well as an overwhelming feeling of dread.
The Wolf is one such Grimm, though this Grimm, in particular, has taken a keen interest in the world of the living beyond merely facilitating the transfer of the souls of other animals to life beyond the veil. Rather, the Wolf has elected to become more actively involved on the mortal plane, and every millennium or so it reveals itself to a mortal to whom it chooses to be a long term companion until such a time as the mortal perishes, fighting by their side and being a silent guide until it is time for the mortal to make their own journey into the beyond. From there, the Wolf returns to silently stalking the earth until it finds a new companion, and the cycle begins anew.
