[Ruby has luckily done this rodeo a couple of times with other people around town. It didn't make her feel a little less awkward that her world seemed to be more monster infested than others- But at least it was an interesting quirk to talk about.]

We call them the Creatures of Grimm, or just Grimm. They've mostly infested my world. They hunt humans almost exclusively and they're drawn to negative emotions.

They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes from normal animals to things out of story books. What they all generally have in common is black fur, skin, or scales, along with bony armor or claws. And glowing red eyes. They're not the most friendly of things around, believe it or not.
