Grimm



"For as long as humanity can recall walking the surface of Remnant, so do they remember this wicked force. The Grimm are so evil that they could destroy us all. But how can this happen? Seriously? What the heck was that?"

--Su Ji-Hoon, The Diary of a Space Marine

Grimm, or the Creatures of Grimm, are the universal antagonists of RWBY, inhabiting various parts of Remnant.

They are described as "creatures of destruction" and lack a soul; hence, they are unable to use Aura. They are also drawn to feelings of negativity- such as envy, sadness, loneliness, and hatred- often congregating towards the source of these emotions.
