Grimwalker Theory - Tumblr Posts
Grimwalker lore theory.
What if grimwalkers actually are an early experiment on recreating titans or creating a vessel for the Titan. Grimwalkers have powerful lungs from the stonesleepers and could probably roar similar to how King does. Stonesleepers is also creatures that evolved early on on the titan and maybe that makes them more powerful since the titan probably had more magic at that time. They also have the ability to hibernate and turn into stone. this is an ability that I think titans also have since they can turn into islands after they "dies" . The heart in Belos throneroom is still beating som maybe the titan is still alive in some way.
Grimwalkers are also immune to the effects of the boiling sea due to their selkiedomus skin, something the titans also are since the apparntly walked around and lived in it.
Grimwalkers are made out of palistromwood that can create "life". All the life on the boiling isles were "born" from the titans corpse. palistrom is also really rare and is blue - titans blood is also blue - maybe palistrom only grow over places with titansblood, so that means that grimwalkers have titans blood in them. They also emphasize the eyes of the grimwalkers. They are red/pink just like Kings.
Grimwalker theory:
What if Grimwalkers originally are a type of spectral dog/wolf demon or a type of shapeshifters like the basilisks. That's why they have so many books about them. Belos may have been able to create fake ones, but they have to have excisted as a species at some point for them to be extinct and have legends about them. There simply can't be an entire species that exist only with galderstones as hearts. there aren't enough of them (they are super rare).
a grim = a dog/wolf/shapeshifter
walker = person/ someone who walks on two legs?
Hunter loves wolves
conclusion: Grimwalker = werewolves or wolfwalkers .(wiki)
(maybe a conection to titans since King looks like a small black dog )
It would have been really cool if Hunter's blood was either green like a palisman or blue like titans'blood since he is a grimwalker.
We haven't actually seen him bleed, just scratches. He does have selkidomus skin, but his heart is made out of galdorstone so the idea that it should pump blood normally is a little weird. Also the rest of his body other than his lungs and maybe his bone/bones(bone of ortet) is made out of palistrom wood. But both him and the palismen seems to eat normally even if they don't really have normal organs. maybe it's just a demon/magic thing. who knows.
I really thought that they would use Hunters blood to make a new portal ever since we saw the trailer with the rebus and Hunter with his hurt hand.
I really hope that while Gus know Hunter is a grimwalker, he doesn't know how they are made. He literary held a grimwalker "heart".
Grimwalker
Has anyone else noticed that grimwalkers seem to be common knowledge on the boiling isles? There a multiple books about them in Hexside, also everyone seems to already know what they are whenever someone says Hunter is a grimwalker. No one stops and asks what a grimwalker is except for Luz and Hunter.
Are grimwalkers part of history class or something because we know they are supposedly extinct. Maybe there are scary stories about them or they are creatures from legends/fairytales from the Boiling isles. Like how we humans have monsters/faries/demons, they have their own versions. it's not like it's forbidden knowledge or else Hunter wouldn't have found that many books about them in Hexside.
