I just realized that the Golden Guard sigil

is the same as

the Gravesfield town seal

Grimewalker OC

His name was Gabriel and he was the 4th grimewalker Belos had made, unfortunately during his creation the Collector was annoying Belos which caused him to mess up the spell making Gabriel “defective” he was younger than he was supposed to be, had brown hair, and was missing an eye. Belos didn’t have enough ingredients to try again so he reluctantly kept him, he died his hair and made him cover his lack of an eye with a patch. Gabriel was very clumsy and messed up a lot which annoyed Belos. He had only existed for a year or two when the Collector gave Belos the idea to test out the first sigil prototype on him. When Gabriel was given his sigil he was so happy and even hugged Belos but he soon met his fate when it was activated, left in Belos old cave to rot. If a witch were to ever come apon this cave they would find the remains of hundreds of palismen and the decayed bones of a boy who was never given a chance

So I was thinking about how grimwalkers are born from the ground, then started to imagine how they must have started out small (picture from the book) and Belos probably had to start somewhere. They are basically weird mandrakes. So here is Belos repotting his baby grimwalker-mandrake. Inspired by that scene from Harry Potter.

Selkidomus Hunter: He can change form between selkidomus-form and witch-form. Inspired by ATLA(water-tribe) and celtic warriors.

What if?

so I've been thinking; what if instead of Kikimora taking King to the Collector-tablet, she took him to the old statue of the previus golden guard. Since all the other guards ended up there, he should've too. She explain the grimwalkers and so on, and then innstructs King how to awaken him with titans blood. Since the guard is a grimmwalker and therefore part stonesleeper, he should be ok after being petrified. Then they will catch him up with whats been happening, and it will be a little confusing for him, but it will be really emotional. Then when Belos tries to kill everyone else, insted of the collector stopping him, its just a really angry grimmwalker yelling "fuck you, Philip!!!" and then they have an epic magic fight. Darius said he was one of the strongest witches he had known or something so… anyway. He kicks Philips ass, then they do something to stop the draining spell. Something smart. Probably with the help of Hunter since he helpted fix the portal-door and know a lot about wild and forbidden magic. He is supposedly a genius. They also have King with titan blood. They manage to stop it somehow, and Darius and the previus golden guard reunite and adopt Hunter. Hunter fix the portal, he has done so before, and everyone lives happely ever after.

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.
