Recurring characters

She quickly evolves, under Nick's tutelage, to become a powerful and percipient Grimm.

Bud Wurstner (played by Danny Bruno) is a beaver-like Wesen, called an Eisbiber. In the season 1 episode "Danse Macabre" Juliette calls him to repair their broken fridge, but he freaks and bolts when he sees Nick. Eventually though, he becomes a friend and ally to both.

Prince Kenneth Alun Goderich Bowes-Lyon (played by Nico Evers-Swindell) took over the search for Diana when Prince Viktor was recalled to Europe. He recruits burgeoning Hexenbiest Juliette to this task. He is bloodthirsty and ruthless, ambushing Nick's mom to meet his goal.
Pilar (played by Bertila Damas) attempts to help find a missing boy in the episode "La Llorona". She perceives Juliette's suffering and confusion and tries to advise her, but meets with resistance.

Royal Crown Prince Viktor Chlodwig zu Schellendorf von Königsburg (aka Viktor Albert Wilhelm George Beckendorf) Played by Alexis Denisof, he is a second cousin of Eric and Sean Renard.

He is tasked by King Frederick Renard with recovering his granddaughter Diana Schade-Renard, by whatever means necessary, and relishes his crimson carte blanche.
Alexander (played by Spencer Conway) is a "fixer" for the Wesen Council. He comes to Portland to enforce Council law and discovers a "new kind of Grimm" in Nick Burkhart. Their encounters open new avenues of understanding for both.
Martin Meisner (played by Damien Puckler) is an ordinary human with extraordinary knowledge and skills essential to the resistance. He rescues Adelind from Prince Viktor and helps her bring Diana into the world. He later becomes the Director of Hadrian's Wall in Portland, training both Trubel and Eve to combat Black Claw.

Josh Porter (played by Lucas Near-Verbrugghe) is the non-Grimm son of Rolek Porter. He grudgingly takes his father to see Nick, all the while disparaging what he thinks are his father's delusions and hallucinations of Wesen.
Elizabeth Lascelles (played by Louise Lombard) is Sean Renard's mother, a Hexenbiest. First seen in the season 4 episode "Thanks for the Memories", she comes to Portland when Renard is shot by Weston Steward and dies. At his hospital bedside, she uses a two-headed snake, to transfer some of her life to her son, reviving him. Then, at Sean's behest, she works with Rosalie and Monroe to reverse Adalind's spell and recover Nick's Grimm powers.

He is vicious, extremely powerful, and determined to have Wesen overthrow every Kehrseite government (and culture) on Earth. He sees this global insurrection as a revolution and the raison d'être of Black Claw.




Creatures



The show refers to its numerous creatures as Wesen, which is German for creature or nature. While the species of each creature often has a German name, although disregarding correct spelling or grammatical, most of the Wesen in the series do not exist by these names in Grimms' Fairy Tales. Some creatures have different names in the German synchronization of the series. For example, the Fuchsbau ("fox den") are called fuchsteufel ("fox-devil") in the German translation of the series.
Wesen are theriomorphic humans with certain traits and abilities characteristic in animals or mythological creatures. The non-human traits and abilities appear when Wesen are aggressive or otherwise emotionally agitated, which is referred to as wogeing from the German wogen, meaning surge. According to the character Monroe, normal people can see only the human appearance of a Wesen, not the woged form. However, Wesen can allow themselves to be seen, which is the source of legends and stories passed down as fairy tales by The Brothers Grimm.
The Wesen community has its politics and institutions, led by the Wesen Council which has the functions of judiciary and legislature. Separately, the seven Royal Houses in Europe are aware of the Wesen community in the series and are vying to restore their former influence in the world. There are also the German: Verrat ("betrayal"), a secret police of Wesen working for the Royal Houses to manipulate others in the Wesen community; the Laufer, a Wesen resistance movement against the Royal Houses; and the reapers, assassins mainly concerned with eliminating Grimms. It is never clearly stated in the series whether members of the Royal families are Wesen themselves; however Wesen–Royal romantic relationships are frowned upon.
