It’s Grimmold’s rowdy troupe consisting of Grimmurr, Beauregard, and his Grimmkin and Grimmsteeds! Plus his boyfriend Arsène!
Grimmurr
He’s a Grimmkin. He’s Grimmold’s best friend and voice of reason.
He’s 12 years old, he’s a non-binary boy, and asexual.
He’s a sweetie pie, very observant, level-headed, and pragmatic.
He’s one of the few people who can calm Grimmold down and who Grimmold listens to. He’s not afraid to voice his concerns or tell Grimmold when he’s being a dumbass.
Grimmold made him with love and the intention of being a friend and he does so wonderfully.
He’s always educating himself on various things, so he can be a good friend to Grimmold and whoever else Grimmold associates with.
He’s one of the few people Grimmold’s ok with being vulnerable with.
While his main focus does tend to be Grimmold, he also gets to boss around other Grimmkin and has an interest in Cumberfaire’s history. Grimmold does his best to indulge this interest by buying and borrowing lots of books for him.
Beauregard
He’s a Millipede. He’s the Troupe’s musician, specifically a pianist.
He’s 19 years old, he’s a man, and he’s bisexual.
He’s cheerful, extremely passionate and motivated, but a little bit melodramatic.
He gets pumped about performances and plays piano about as hard as Grimmold tap dances. The two tend to get a little wild if left alone.
He was classically trained, but he had more of an interest in more upbeat music than the slow classic music his family trained him in.
He joined Grimmold’s troupe because the grimm loved his upbeat ragtime music and could keep up with the lively pace.
He can do an occasional slow jam, so he’s a skilled musician.
Grimmkin
Grimmold has quite a few Grimmkin as well. You can tell they're his by the lopsided horns.
They tend to go around pranking people for a small amount of nightmare essence or they just collect the flames in general.
Grimmold tends to slack when it comes to flame collecting, so they make sure he doesn’t run too low on them.
Grimmsteed
He has two average sized Grimmsteeds.
Their lopsided antennae notify that they’re his.
He has two because he needs extra strength to carry around instruments, which include Beauregard’s piano.
Arsène
He’s a Glasswing Butterfly. He’s a painter.
He’s 20 years old, he’s a man, and he’s bisexual.
He’s a hopeless romantic, a sap for anything traditionally romantic (dates, red roses, etc.), a little cheeky, but he’s also an honest lad who sticks to his word.
He fell madly in love with Grimmold because Grimmold bought his painting in his first major art show. He also fell for him because Grimmold loved him despite his past and his flaws.
When they broke up, he was heartbroken as well, but he insisted that he would wait until Grimmold was ready to be ok with little intimacy things like holding hands or showing affection.
He painted a ton of portraits in the past, but being with Grimmold inspired him to do more fantasy-themed paintings with a mix of his portraiture skills. He likes that more than painting some old rich bugs.
He’s always patient with his boyfriend and always tries to ease him into lovey-dovey things.
He still does his art shows, which Grimmold loves to go see.
