Grimp



Grimps are small black creatures that somewhat resemble a Gromp in both actions and looks. They are first seen in Moonlit Peaks and in most dark places afterwards.

How to Herd Grimps
There are techinally TWO ways to herd Grimps: Depending on how advanced you are in the game will depend which technique is best to use. They are not affected by the Herding Stick. If Gerdy uses the horn near Grimps that are idle or chasing him, they'll imedatley stop and cry out from the annoying noise it makes, stunning them for a moment. When falling from high places they are also temporarily stunned, this also goes for if they're near water. However, there is a slight chance a Grimp can be glitched within the water and never again returning to normal or out of its stunned state.
 * 1) Stay at a distance and start playing the Magic Flute. The Grimps will follow Gerdy across the area without hurting him but when Gerdy uses the flute he of course, slows down to a walk.
 * 2) Get near the Grimps without using the flute and herd them like you would a Grom p. This is typically more reckless than to use the Magic Flute but is typically much quicker than when you do use it.

If Grimps catch Gerdy, they swarm around him with the scene transitioning to Gerdy sitting on the ground. The Grimps are then transported back to where they origonally placed at the begining of the level.

Behavior
Grimps will snarl and growl when idle and Gerdy is not nearby but when he's nearby they'll try to attack him. If Gerdy uses the Magic Flute however, they'll stop attacking Gerdy and follow the music, snapping their fingers when Gerdy is idle. However, if Grimps are drawn near other creatures while following Gerdy, they'll stop following him and proceed to eat them. If a Grimp is near a Gromp however, they start jumping around and claping happily. The Gromp in turn does nothing to the Grimps.

Pens & Map Indication
Grimp pens look fairly stable and on the far end is an added slab of meat dangling on a string to lure Grimps inside. A total of 9 Grimps can fit into a pen. Grimps and Grimp pens are represented by purple dots and squares in the map.
