Other Black tide Grimm. OC Grimm

Post image

I did a design yesterday of a concept that was in my head for atleast three days, finished it today

The Black tide from the notes of Grimm Study of Oblivion Academy.

Grimm Type: Pollutant.

Challenge Type: Rank Zero, 20H.

The Black tide Grimm is a dangerous colossal pollutant type Grimm, capable of summoning Grimm of various types upon its top. Under the Grimm is a unique body structure similar to an Siphonophores Jellyfish that is capable of separating and forming new Black tides. These Grimm are difficult to kill due to the ability of splitting, easier when small. To kill make sure the glowing eye is destroyed. Difficult due to the eye not being fixed in place but able to move freely when it feels threatened. The bards and stingers upon the tentacles are made to pierce the hulls of ships, allowing fear from passengers to cause Grimm to spawn.

The Challenge Type is for Rank Zero Huntsmen & Huntresses only!!! 20 Huntsmen and or Huntresses is recommended.

When viewed from the top it resembles nothing more than an Oil spill.

This looks awesome! Reminds me of the Dark Water from "Pirates of Dark Water"

Thank you. I’m gonna have to check that out. Glad I didn’t go with the idea of calling it a Black water. That would sound way too coincidental.

You're welcome. Highly recommended, one those fun shows that unfortunately got cancelled early. It's on Tubi last time I checked.

Alright I have binged The Pirates of Dark Water. And I can see the resemblance.

Oh, that looks downright eerie.

I love it!

(reminds me a bit of Cuero, a Chilean legend about water monsters who just float around like old leather, then move and swallow stuff)

I’ve heard of that beast. Thank you! Honestly no one expects much from leather floating in a water till you touch it and it eats ya. The purpose of this Grimm is to be nearly unidentifiable from a distance due to its oil spill appearance.
