Is it a force of primal chaos, perhaps, nature's manifestation of entropy, given form? Or perhaps, it is a kind of corrupting substance, or even some complex alien parasite, and all the monsters we've seen so far have merely been poor animals that have been mutated and driven insane by exposure? Or perhaps, drawing from the implication that the Grim only appeared after the rise of man, perhaps they are some sort of complex psychic phenomena, nurtured and birthed by mankind's innate evil, much like the concept behind Chaos in Warhammer 40,000? Perhaps this might be why "victory is in a simple soul", indeed. All this delicious speculation leaves me hungrily anticipating the 5th episode of RWBY.

After all, to "know thine enemy" is the first step to truly understanding them, and extrapolating all their forms and abilities. I'm thinking more along the lines of the Heartless from Kingdom Hearts. Second that thought. Still standing by my Sauron theory.

Just out of interest, what is your Sauron theory? And, can someone explain the Heartless to this poor soul who has not played Kingdom Hearts yet?
