* CruelCoyotes: The Coyote [[BeastMan Wesen]], the Coyotl's, have a reputation for being nasty, vicious bullies and predators, and are considered the Wesen equivalent of street gangs. Generally they live in large, [[TheClan insular packs composed of close family members]], being hostile to all outsiders, and they hold the pack mentality to the point of murdering members who try to leave. [[VillainousIncest Interbreeding]] is likewise common within packs, to the point of them having a ritual where following a new female's seventeenth birthday, all the male members of the pack will "induct" them on the night of the first full moon. [[ToServeMan Eating humans]] is likewise not unheard of, with a pack being able to strip grown men to the bones. However, there are Coyotl who at least try to break away from the packs and live normal lives, a good example being [[TheLancer Hank]]'s best friend Jarold Kampfer.

** Early episodes seemed to suggest that all the Grimms were directly connected to the same family tree. Some of the Grimm journals that Nick read had the Grimms in question actually have the surname "Grimm." The Season One episode "Tarantella" had a journal entry mentioning a Japanese doctor with abilities similar to a Grimm, but made a point to not call him a Grimm specifically. Eventually the show would go on to suggest that "Grimm" was more a title or species name, as opposed to a family name (and that other cultures and time periods gave them other names).

* MindlessSheep: The first introduction we get to a species of sheep-like ''Wessen'' known as Seelengut (German for "kindhearted" or "good soul") seemingly involves them being manipulated by a SinisterMinister into covering up embezzlement from his church... [[spoiler:however, it's ZigZagged, as it turns out that a pair of Seelenguter acted independently after being spurned by said minister, and stole from him with the help of the VictimOfTheWeek; the episode ends with the two of them on a beach in the Caribbean with their ill-gotten gains]].

* PlayingWithFire: The Wesen in “Plumed Serpent”, known as Daemonfeuer, have [[BreathWeapon fire breath]]. They apparently do this by vaporizing their fat, “vomiting” that vapor into the air, then somehow igniting it through static electricity. The family includes [[MundaneUtility two flamethrower operators, a welder, and a fire dancer]], so they obviously quite like fire.

Nick Burkhardt (Creator/DavidGiuntoli), a new on-the-beat homicide police detective with the Portland Police Bureau in Oregon, is about to propose to the woman of his dreams. He comes home to discover his Aunt Marie has turned up unexpectedly. Soon after, she hits him with the truth she's been keeping secret from him: he is one of the last descendants of the Grimm family -- as in Creator/TheBrothersGrimm -- and as such, is gifted with the ability to see monsters, or "Wesen", walking among us, and that his family has hunted and slain these monsters for generations. Now Nick must cope with his new abilities, the knowledge that comes with them, and still do his job as a police officer.

Added DiffLines:

* PrimalPolymorphs: Downplayed in the case of several Wesen breeds; though species like the [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent Blutbaden]] and the [[BearsAreBadNews Jagerbar]] have animalistic instincts that may require them to the mark their territory and may abide by traditions requiring them to hunt in the wild, they have no problem with living in urban environments. Blutbaden main character Monroe occasionally indulges in a few of these rituals, even helping out in a traditional coming-of-age ceremony for young Wesen at one point, but still spends the rest of his time as a mild-mannered suburban clockmaker.

* ArtShift: Perhaps not an art shift per se, but the show definitely [[DoingItForTheArt takes efforts]] to use color, lighting, shadow and other subtle visual elements to create a quasi-fairy tale/story book appearance within context of realistic visuals.
