Slouch

Slouches are a large species of. They take the appearance of a Giant from Greek mythology.

Appearance
Slouches take their appearance of a Giant: humanoid and large in size. The Grimm has a very thick frame to point that it looks obese. Instead of normal hands and feet, the Slouch has its limbs take a cylindrical shape. The face of a Slouch is round and it has two red eyes.

On the Slouch, there is usually white armour covering the entire torso. The back of the Slouch has spikes protruding out of it's body and older Slouches tend to have more.

Powers and Abilities
Slouches are very powerful Grimm due to a dark black substance that they fire from their hands. The substance is sticky, making it capable of trapping people without any effort. Because of the fact that the substance can be fired at long distances, this makes the Slouch deadly at range. The projectile can only be fired once every four seconds but the longer the Slouch charges it, the range and viscosity of the substance increases. Because Slouches are known to behave in a lazy manner, they tend to stay in one position and use it's projectiles.

When the limb of a Slouch is cut, it is capable of regenerating it's limbs. However, the Slouch decreases in size as a trade off. This increases the Slouch's speed as it losses it's weight the ranged projectile reduces in effectiveness as it has less range and less viscosity. Despite this, the regeneration process can be stopped if something is obstructing the arm.

The main characteristic of a Slouch is that it will constantly try the most efficient way of defeating a human. If a person tries to dodge the projectiles, the Slouch will start to predict where the person will be. Slouches will also use the environment in its favour by pushing trees to collapse on other people.

Despite this, the speed of a Slouch is it's main weakness. The Slouch moves sluggishly and rarely sprints or walk when in battle. Even when it runs, the Slouch is still too slow for the average human, making it easy to outrun the Grimm. Slouches are lazy in it's movements as it takes too long for the Slouch to actually move it's limbs or aim.
