Appearance: Grim looks as though someone took several different cats of various shades of gray and stitched them together into a single, cohesive animal. Just beneath his mottled fur are black stitches that can be seen behind his shoulders, across his face, and where his legs meet his body. He has deep yellow eyes that display a cynical type of intelligence.

Additional Details
Familiar Bond: There are several levels of bonding, each requiring a separate ritual to form. Bonding with Grimalkin imparts him with the ability to reside within your shadow indefinitely, and in return, he grants his Master mystical abilities. Please read the following.
Initiate
Bond Sense: You are able to discern Grimalkin's location at all times. He is able discern yours. You may communicate with each other telepathically.
Spirit Sight: When focusing, your pupils become slits, and you are able to see ghosts, spirits, and other ethereal creatures. Additionally, you are able to see perfectly in darkness.
Open Sesame: You gain access to the Grey Market and all of its resources.
Intermediate
As the Shadows: Your shadow muffle the sounds of your footsteps, allowing you stalk your prey as silently as a cat.
Command Undead: Mindless undead are now at your beck and call. However, they are only able to obey simple commands. Mindless undead are stupid.
Seance: You are able to conjure the spirit of a creature in order to extract information. You must have the creature's body (or a small part of it) on hand.
Advanced
Destroy Undead: Weaker undead pose no threat to you. If they are a waste of space, waste 'em.
Create/Summon Undead: Show them how much better your creations can be. Minions are never a bad idea.
Bolster Undead: Minions can be weak, but you can make them better. Careful. Necromancy is a dark and tempting path.
Rise Where They Fall: Humans? More like resources. All humans slain by your hand rise again as an undead minion after 24 hours. Don't like it? Too bad. If only there were some way to get rid of the evidence...(See "Destroy Undead")
Eternal
Oh, what can possibly happen when you create an Eternal bond with Grimalkin?

Pacts: Although not as defined as a Familiar Bond, Grimalkin can form Pacts with anyone. These are simple agreements, arrangements between Cat and Servant...er...between friends!
Give a Cat a Fish
Grimalkin demands a fish. If you give him one, you form a Pact that allows him to connect your shadow to his network of Shadow Paths. Henceforth, he is able to teleport in and out of your shadow via his Shadow Stride ability. This creates a cold sensation down your spine. But who cares? A cat can appear at any time. To break this Pact, demand a fish from Grimalkin. He cannot deny you, and once the fish is taken and consumed, he will no longer be able to access your shadow. Unless, of course, you give the cat a fish. Notable exception: Amaya O'Reilly.
