Here’s Grimmshaw “Sr”, Griswalda’s deceased father and her adoptive uncle, Torngasak.

Grimmshaw Sr

He's a Tundra Grimm and Griswalda's deceased father.

He was 200 years old when he died, he's a man, and he's gay. 

Despite his serious expression, this old man’s a softie. He’s a real joker, kind, calm, and a little bit of a worrywart. He’s very protective of his family and isn’t against using violence to protect them.

Despite that, he’d prefer not to fight. Much like his daughter, he will only fight if necessary.

He loves painting. He did many landscapes and portraits throughout his life. In his old age, most of his paintings were of his beloved daughter.

He always referred to Griswalda as his world. He loved her so much. 

In the present, Griswalda visits him in the Nightmare Heart. He was quite shocked to see how much she had grown and equally as surprised to learn about her husband and kids.

He, of course, had to tease Elliot at first, but eventually lets his son in-law know that he's thankful for someone so compassionate to be looking out for his precious daughter. 

He often gives her advice and comfort when she goes and visits him. 

Torngasak

He's a bee, a close friend to Grimmshaw Sr and Griswalda's adoptive uncle. 

He's 64 years old, he's a man, and he's gay. 

He's peppy, short-tempered, aggressively caring, and hard working. 

He met Grimmshaw when he was 8 years old and he was obsessed with Grimmshaw. 

He always wanted to practice Grimmish, learn about the past from the old Grimm, and just genuinely enjoyed Grimmshaw's company. 

As an adult he became a close friend to Grimmshaw. He even tried to get the old man to move in, but Grimmshaw kindly said no. 

He would always give Grimmshaw a ton of food to take home when he’d visit. Grimmshaw was thankful for this.

He was pissed when Grimmshaw didn’t visit for 4 years straight. Grimmshaw would visit semi-frequently prior to this. When he saw the reason aka Griswalda, his tune completely changed.

He adores his niece so much. He can’t help but spoil her a little when Grimmshaw brings her over.

Their Story

Grimmshaw lost his mother, Griswanda, as well as his sister, Grimmalda, when he was 13. He ended up being found by a bee and his son, Palartok and Cupun respectively. They took the grimm in, taught him standard, and learned Grimmish as well. He became a part of their bee family/hive, raised by Palartok, who he sees as a father figure, and grew up alongside Cupun, who he sees as an older brother. Grimmshaw outlived his adoptive father and brother, as well as their kids, and their grandkids. Growing tired of the loss, he began leading a life of solitude.

It wasn’t until the 7th generation of Palartok's family when he met Torngasak, an 8 year old boy with a huge interest in Grimmish and grimms in general. He would visit him at his parents house and soon his own home. The two became close friends. Despite Torngasak's insistence on Grimmshaw coming to live with him, he politely declined.

Grimmshaw would consistently visit until he was around 187 years old. This concerned Torngasak greatly but he had no means of tracking the grimm down. The reason as to why he stopped visiting was simply because he had Griswalda and was raising her. The pregnancy was strenuous on his old body and raising her even more so, but he loved that child of his with all his heart. When she was 4, he finally took her to meet his dear friend. 

He was pissed to hear that familiar knock on his door and demanded an explanation. Grimmshaw said no explanation would suffice so he'd just showed the bee. He opened his cloak, revealing a lil Grimmchild and Torngasak's tune changed completely. After hearing the whole story with the pregnancy and raising her up to this point, he scolded Grimmshaw for not coming to his home for help and support. Griswalda must’ve been tough to raise, especially at his age.

Grimmshaw also comes clean about the other reason to see him aka to ask Torngasak if he could take care of his daughter when he eventually dies. Grimms indeed can live a long life, but they aren’t immortal. Torngasak agrees to care for Griswalda, of course, since they’re family and he cares about them. For the next couple of years they prepared Torngasak’s house for Griswalda to live there. They also talked to her about living there and got her used to being around and sleeping over at Torngasak’s house. Things seemed to be on track until Grimmshaw died and Griswalda disappeared into the tundra instead of going to her uncle’s as planned.

Torngasak searched for her for years on end but to no avail. He gained the ability to find flames from Grimmshaw prior to the old grimm’s death, so he’d leave flames out for her in hopes that she’d come home to him or as a means to see she was still alive. About 2 decades later, she finally came home to him, albeit all grown-up and with her own life going on. She felt terribly guilty for not coming all those years, but Torngasak didn’t care as he was just happy to see her alive.

In the present, Griswalda goes to visit her dad in the Nightmare Realm. His soul resides within the heart so in a sense he’s alive. She often brings her kids and Elliot to see him or just for some advice. He’s always very happy to see any of them and is especially happy to see his dear daughter all grown up and big. She also went to find her uncle and they reconnected as well. He ended up moving closer (with the help of her magic) so it was easier for him to visit her and vice versa. He adores her kids and is as happy as Grimmshaw Sr. to see her all grown up.
