Bio: Kummi is a Grimm kin/ Grimm like insect, but is not part of the Grimm Troupe at all. She comes from a long line of creatures who broke free of the rituals and the Nightmare itself, similar to how Brumm is freed by extinguishing the flame. Kummi looks very similar to Grimm himself, except she's mostly blue instead of red, and has four horns on her head- they are slightly flexible too.

A slender body with an attractive female appearance, half lidded eyes and a blue corset-esque shell that protects her midriff. She is slightly taller than Hornet.

Kummi is able to cast blue flames, contrasting against the Troupe's red flames. She can throw simple fireballs, or cast more devastating firestorms. She has yet to show off what she can really do. She can also vanish in an instant, leaving black smoke in her place.

Her insides and flesh are blue, as well as her blood. Blue mouth and tongue, you get the idea.

Personality: Kummi is normally quite calm and collected, not letting others get on her nerves. She's usually in control of any given situation, turning it to her needs. A little flirty and mischievous too, using her charm to get her way.

Story: Kummi comes from an unknown land, perhaps kept secret to hide the whereabouts of the Nightmare's Heretics. She slowly follows the torches and flames of the Troupe, hoping to one day snuff out the flames and end the endless Nightmare. She does it mostly to save her kind, wanting them to be free and no longer tied down- at least, that's how she sees it.

After many a time chasing the Troupe, she would happen upon a circus- but not the one she was looking for. She stuck around, admiring from the shadows as they traveled and played acts... only to learn that behind the scenes, they were capturing bugs and creatures, throwing them in cages for a pretty penny. Some were even wanted men and women. A Circus doubling as a slave trade? And bounty hunting at the same time? Things got spicy...

One day, the Circus captures a peculiar bug named Harrold. She had seen his face on wanted posters, wondering just what this insane bug had done to rile up such a high bounty! Perhaps she admired it? They chatted in secrecy, Kummi learning the truth of him being falsy accused... so she strikes a deal with him. She will free him, but he MUST assist her when the time comes. He agrees, and Kummi- in spectacular fashion, ignites the WHOLE circus on fire mid-act, freeing not only Harrold, but all the other captives as well. Kummi and Harrold escape with ease, heading for Hallownest.

Upon reaching Hallownest, they separate for the time being, Kummi hanging back, waiting for the Grimm Troupe to arrive... certainly it must be here it arrives. As she waits, she explores Hallownest. Chats with those in Dirthmouth, scuttles into the City of Tears for a drink or two, making friends with a Lifeblood crazed spider, even works at said bar for a brief while, until the Troupe appears...

Once the tent is raised and the flames lit, Kummi... stalls, not really knowing what to do or how to do it, so she ends up being more of a nuisance instead of a hero, messing with the rituals, stealing and breaking torches, attacking small Grimmkin. Its fair to say Grimm himself hates her, and is constantly having to deal with her meddling.

Whats to come is unknown...
