Grims are a strain of Chimera that are created from humans and other species through the Spinner strain. Although frail in form, the Grim are fast moving and pose a serious threat when in groups. The Grim strain are the latest byproduct of the Chimera's conversion process and are created by using Spinners, which capture human hosts and are weaved in cocoons. The cocoon slowly rebuilds the host as they are converted into a Grim. A Grim has the appearance of a nude, sinewy Hybrid, lacking a cooling unit, and their spines appear to bulge out.

The Grim strain are the latest byproduct of the Chimera's conversion process and are created by using Spinners, which capture human hosts and are weaved in cocoons. The cocoon slowly rebuilds the host as they are converted into a Grim. A Grim has the appearance of a nude, sinewy Hybrid, lacking a cooling unit, and their spines appear to bulge out.
It is not uncommon that the Grim strain are heavily populated in human cities due to the Chimera's strategy of deploying Spire missiles carrying Spinners into human dense metropolitan areas. It is by large numbers combined with their speed that compensates their frailty and incapability of using any kind of weapons that made Grims formidable threats.
When a human is converted into a Grim, their immune system collapses. This allows toxic bacteria to contaminate the Grim's blood, allowing explosive yellowish-green pus to form in it. This process takes place at an unknown period of time in the Grim's life stage, eventually turning into a Leech.
