Description Grymm is a High Reaper, a powerful creature that works for the God of Death. Unlike most Reapers, Grymm was never a living mortal. He is an otherworldly being who was created directly by the God of Death and tasked with the duty of training and protecting young Reapers. Grymm focuses on nothing else but his responsibilities, and displays little to no emotion. Although the safety and well-being of his Reapers certainly matters to him, he is uninterested in "pointless social interaction" and idle conversations.

Grymm is intelligent as well as strong as has an uncanny precognition when it comes to foreseeing behavior in others. When one of the young Reapers is troubled by something, Grymm often realizes it before they do themselves. Though always seeming distant (if not just a little cold) Grymm does what he can to offer his pupils advice and does everything in his power to look after them.

In circumstances where Slayer Reapers may be pitted against a unusually dangerous undead opponent, Grymm will join them in battle. He is a force to be reckoned with, and many of the young Reapers look up to him, hoping to one day be as formidable a fighter as he.

Powerful undead that Grymm has personally destroyed are displayed as "Screaming Skulls" in the form of tattoos across his body and horns. Grymm can readily account the name and stories of each of these defeated enemies, and uses them as examples and warnings to his young Reapers during their training sessions.

Even when away from the mortal realm, Grymm never takes off his mask. Some of his students have theorized that High Reapers like Grymm are created with their masks in place, and that they can't be removed. However, no one has yet had the courage to ask Grymm directly, as doing so might seem rude.

Grymm never eats or sleeps. When he is blessed with a few moments of "leisure time" he uses the opportunity to hone his battles skills by practicing maneuvers with his large, dark scythe.

 


The original character of Grymm and his pupils do not exist within the RPG world as our other characters. The Reapers are something new I have created for this gallery as a creative art challenge. You may consider them to be in an "alternate reality" than the world that skullard and I normally build upon. Thank you for all your positive feedback about them! Please look forward to more images of Grymm , Salem and Sin as well as meeting two other Reapers sometime in the upcoming months.

Thank you so much! Grymm's scary tattoos are the representations of the undead foes he has defeated in battle.

there he is again i like him alot. that is an impressive scythe but i do pitty him abit he seems only know duty and the hard task to see his pupils grow. I really hope he finds something to cheer him up a bit even when his creation was always because of his task and never ment to be filled with joy. But I wish he finds something: a light in all the darkness he has to be confronted with in his profession as an reaper

You are so sweet, Hiro!  I think that Grymm finds joy in his own way when he sees his students grow and succeed. Their welfare is important to him, so when he knows that they have taken his lessons to heart and have grown as Reapers, he can take pride and comfort in that.

Thank you for your wonderful comments!

What an incredibly precisely thought out character   His appearance is extremely consistent with the description. The musculature testifying to the enormous power, the resolute expression of the face, the cold gaze and the very dark design create a precise form as the description says. I love his long jet-black hair and tattoos, which additionally emphasize his masculinity  Nevertheless, his face, despite such a cold look, betrays a certain element of gentleness, so although it comes from a different world .. maybe it has something to do with man, more than just the look itself.

Thank you so much for giving me such a thoughtful and descriptive comment, Sakuichi!   It makes me so happy to read your thoughts about Grymm! You are such a kind friend to think on my characters in this way.

I think you are right, it could be said that Grymm does have a gentleness when it comes to his pupils. He may not socialize or "buddy around" with them, but their safety and welfare does matter to him. He wants them to be strong and confident, and he would protect them in any situation, no matter the risk to his own life.

Fab render of course, but I particularly like the detailed lore that you have put into the character. I'm not sure how many viewers realize that creating context and meaning for our work can easily take longer than producing the image itself.

LukaSkullard In reply to FyraNuanser [2019-02-08 01:33:57 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! You are exactly right, Fyra, the stories themselves can take up a lot of the artist's effort.  Coming up with the personality and background for each character is very important to me, as I feel it makes them more like a real person. That can seem a bit silly when it's obviously a fantasy character, but that's how we bring out characters to life.

I used to roleplay long ago~ but never had close friends or people near me invested in RPG and games like that~!

Thank you so much for liking Grymm, Tasukra!  RPG has always been something that skullard and I enjoy doing together for as long as we have known each other. It's how we met, so it's always been a really enjoyable hobby for us! Our characters always fall in love because we like to fall in love with each other over and over again.

I'm so pleased that you like Grymm, Vererfo!   It was enjoyable for me to find all the different elements like the mask and horns and put them together for a unique appearance. I hope that the Reapers' unique masks will give the view a bit of a hint at their personality.

Gorgeous image! I have to get that outfit love the sythe and horns and it is portrayed very thoughtfully as though made for this character in this image. This is excellently done and the back ground and skulls really set the mood and are a perfect reminder of his line of work. Interesting character and love the back story on Salem and Sinuous as well.

He's simply outstading! ^^.

Both his story and his design are incredibly interesting and the detail of the skull tattoos on his body is somewhat frightening X3.
I really like that he and his apprentices are part of a different universe from your other characters because that means you are great at creating stories ♥.

Also I'm noticing that your newest illustrations have amazing backgrounds and that's fantastic because I love them ;D.

PS: Sorry to write you such a poor comment. I would like to explain myself better but I feel that I am not inspired (apart from the fact that I have the flu and I feel stunned XD).
