His dark eyes tilt downward, giving him a permanently mournful, melancholy look.

Personality

Grim leans hard into theatrics. When Isagi and Hiori first approach him, he answers in flowery, poetic language paired with wildly exaggerated gestures, an eccentric and dramatic figure at every turn.

Abilities

Grim is a versatile attacker who has filled forward, winger, and midfield-general roles, the last a commanding central job that steers his side's play while breaking up the opponent's. His signature is a tank-type dribble, using bulk and close control to shield the ball, absorb pressure, and bulldoze through defenders.

Against FC Barcha he leans on that strength to force open the most direct route forward, though his passing runs rough enough that Erik Gesner jokes he is the only one who can gather Grim's messy deliveries. Crossing and raw physicality round out his toolkit. Across the Neo Egoist League he starts nearly every match, subbed off only in the game against Paris X Gen, and began the tournament ranked fifth within Bastard München.
