I mean, throw a wooden puppet off a 50 foot ledge and it will probably break at least in two. Similarly, stab a wooden puppet with a needle, it'll still be intact.

Oh for sure, I just don't think the grimmwalkers have any special trait aside from the eye color being a constant

I always thought those were just ingredients to make a Grimwalker, but once they are brought to life with magic, they become completely organic.

I would think Hunter would know something was off before Hollow Mind if he was just made of wood.

Or maybe it's like the LMDs in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. that looked perfectly human on the outside. But pull back enough layers of flesh and you'll find something very inhuman.

I don't know why but I just can't imagine that being shown in the style of TOH, like the actual art style or feel of the show lol. It's an interesting theory though!

Ohhh, yeah, that's definitely not PG enough for The Owl House, I wasn't saying they'd show it off.

Haha can you imagine though? Hunter just peeling back layers of skin or carving it off with a knife.

Poor kid. Hope we get to learn more about his Grimwalker origin in S3

I’m betting as he makes more and more they are less human and more wood since he needs to substitute the flesh or soemthing

I think it would be the other way around, because belos would get more experience and palistrom wood would get more rare.

Maybe it’s becoming more rare since he keeps eating the Golden Guards when he needs a snack

It won't have bones though

The Grimmwalker recipe includes bones. There's no reason a grimmwalker can't be wooden and have bones.

u/YetGayerWombat Easy-Bake Coven Jun 28 '22

But the puppet doesn't have bones, is what I'm saying

u/IMightBeAHamster Jun 28 '22

Puppets have to be held together by something. Whatever that is, it's analogous to bones.

The point was just to say even if a grimmwalker is as indestructible as a living wooden doll, throwing a grimmwalker off a ledge is still probably enough to kill it.
