Brother Grymm
...
The true origins of Brother Grymm are somewhat shrouded in mystery. What is known is that when Lou and Tommy were travelling across the United States to escape Washington D.C. they ran across a cult of blood starved ghouls abandoned by their masters in Cookeville, Tennessee. This cult, the Children of Blood, were led by a man named Cyrus who would seek out Kindred to trap to sate the addiction to vitae.
Tommy would be wound up with this cult which bought Lou into investigating. Within the cult, Tommy would find kinship from fellow former blood addicts. Lou and Tommy would fight about this to lead Tommy to go back to the cult. The cult would then set their sights on Lou and attempt to grab him, Lou would fight back and discover the cult's headquarters.
Lou would sneak in and find a husk of a Kindred hooked up to a blood letting machine. With the help of Tommy, Lou would re-awaken the torpid Kindred by luring a cultist to their fangs. Lou and Tommy would escape as the female Kindred wrecked havoc over the cult.
Cyrus would lay dying on his altar where he would be confronted by the once torpid Kindred. She would reveal herself to be Sister Riley, Mother of all Thin-Bloods, future member of the Seven Flames of the Sabbat. She would tell Cyrus that she would take him to some friends to remould him into the grim reminder of what lay beneath.
Exactly what was done to Cyrus is unknown, but he would be transformed into a monstrosity. Built for purpose, to be a Slayer.
When the Seven Flames caught wind of illicit operations coming out of Gary, Indiana - Brother Grymm would slaughter a pub full of mortals, disrupting the human trafficking ring occurring in the building. When the Friends of the Blood came to investigate, they would be confronted by Brother Grymm at the ruins of the Gary Methodist church. They would force Brother Grymm to flee, leaving Sister Riley to be captured by the coterie.
Grymm would next appear when Lou and Ace would investigate the shutdown Rosewood Mental Institution looking for Tommy. When Ace and Lou discovered the captured mortals and strange flesh creatures, Brother Grymm would burst on scene and fight with the two as the captives escaped. Ace and Lou were able to escape and evade Brother Grymm.
About a year later, Brother Grymm would re-emerge when a new branch of the Friends of Blood coterie would look into a potential masquerade breach at the YMCA food kitchen. When the trail to the flesh crafted parasites led to food processing plant, Chumly Co - Brother Grymm would engage with the coterie. The coterie were able to force Brother Grymm to flee - severely wounding the monster.
Grymm would collapse into the Illinois woods and meld into the Earth.
