Grimers are gluttonous creatures that feed off of ooze and rotting flesh. This combo of a meal gives their pudding like skin an unnatural purple tone. When grimers are in a group; keep cautious as Muk may be nearby. Grimers are normally found in dungeons feasting on the carcasses of fallen warriors. When enough food has been consumed by the ooze; it will metamorphosize into Muk gathering an army in its wake. Grimers hold tight and don't let go of warriors; quickly bringing them to the leading Muk and providing food for the colony. |
