.:Birthplace:. 8th Kingdom
.:Family:. Brother (Galahad), son (Aiden)
.:Friends:. Aurora Rose Tchaikovskaya (sometimes/sort-of/used-to-be?)
.:Occupation:. Standing in as the ruler of the 8th Kingdom
.:History:. Grimm was the second child born to the Sharrow family, which was a perfectly regular family in the 8th Kingdom. The brothers were raised and educated in the usual way, with a strong dose of old traditions, as is the way of the 8th Kingdom. In childhood, the Sharrow brothers often fought with each-other, sometimes in boyhood scraps and other times to train each-other for weapon-skill (which sometimes turned into a scrap as well). Together, the two young brothers joined the 8th Kingdom Guard as foot soldiers. However, the boys had prowess and were trained by the best men in the Kingdom and became high-ranking castle guards, serviced to protect the royal family.
It was at this time that Grimm met Aurora. At first, he didn’t know who she was (as he did not recognize her without her ornate royal garb) and mistook her as a fellow-worker in the castle. He became attracted to her and was bold and foolish enough to tell her outright. Even after he found out who she really was, his love did not fade. Secretively, the two became involved with one-another. Quite unplanned, Aurora became pregnant and had a son who was given his father’s surname, though the couple had not been married. Even though the baby was not planned for, both parents adore him dearly.
Now, six years later, Grimm has gotten himself mixed up in the biggest lover’s quarrel that the world has ever seen. When Aurora’s parents passed on, she was not eligible to take the throne because she was a female. Her son would have been next in line, if not for his young age and illegitimate birth. The Kingdom was in an uproar about what to do. Grimm offered to marry Aurora and become king, but this only made it seem as if he had been using her to get the throne all along. Frustrated, Grimm rallied the support of his brother, who was now captain of the castle guard and had a strong influence on the soldiers of the Kingdom. With their backing, he was established as temporary ruler, to hold the throne until his son comes of age. However, Aurora was doing some rallying of her own as well. Hurt-feelings and high emotions led to civil war in the kingdom and the people cannot agree on who should rightfully be their ruler.
