Pisces

Grimm Classification: Bull shark

Grimm Title: Pisces

Threat Ranking: C (when alone)

A (when mate is found)

Appearance: Although based off sharks, the Pisces are a species of land sharks that inhabit the deserts. They appear as large, somewhat skeletal looking sharks. Their entire back is covered with bone plates, with its entire face covered in a bone mask. The belly and tail of the Grimm is completely uncovered. The area around the eyes of the Grimm have a thin, transparent flap of red flesh, possibly to protect its eyes from the sand. All fins of the Grimm are scimitar-like in appearance and are covered with bone plate. The Grimm's maws are wide and are lines with 2 rows of teeth and the mask appears to have nose holes with no gills visible. Pisces are know to grow to be very large, being nearly as large as a Bullhead at full maturity. Young Pisces are as large as a normal tiger shark.

'Females' have the same appearance and size as the 'male' but are white instead of black.

Ability:


 * Strength: They are large, quick and can easily crush people with their bodies. They live solely in deserts and their dorsal fins can be seen going through the sand and stone with ease. Their dorsal fin is incredible sharp and can cut through a school bus with ease. They can also detect prey through the vibration made when walking on the sand. Their strength comes from them finding a partner. Once partnered with another Pisces, the two will always remain by each other sides and when attacking, they mirror each others attacks.
 * Weakness: When alone they can be brought to 'shore' by leading them to an area with more firm dirt, forcing them to surface and 'beach'. They struggle getting back into the sand if they were to be 'beached', leaving their vulnerable undersides exposed. Pisces duo's mirror each others attacks, making it easy to predict their next attack and if a partner is killed, they will not search for a new partner.

Additional Notes: Pisces live in the hot, sandy deserts, especially those found in Vacuo. They actively hunt for prey, normally staying at flat ground rather than areas with hills or rocks. When they find prey, they'd stalk it, trying to keep its dorsal fin as low as possible. Once it reaches its target, it'll begin to circle it, slowly raising its dorsal fin. It would then swallow the poor creature whole or cut it in half using the fin first.

They always are on the look out for partners, which causes these Grimm to migrate every now and then. When they find a partner, they will travel together and hunt prey together. If a Pisces partner is 'beached' they'll by their side and watch as their partner dies. Pisces who lost their partners are more violent.
