Name: Lerneaus.

Inspiration: Lernean Hydra.

Environment: Marshes and swamps, cave systems.

Appearance: Lerneaus are quadrapedal lizard-like Grimm about the size of a horse (that's a regular horse, to be clear, not the horse half of the Nuckalavee). Their bodies are monitor lizard-like in shape, and they have four short but thick legs that end in four-clawed feet. They have three tails. A Lerneaus' defining feature are its heads, the amount of which vary from specimen to specimen. Each head has a diamond-shaped snout lined with sharp teeth, and two short horns poking out from behind it.

Armourings: Faceplates on each head, plated tails and underbellies.

Aesthetics: Red markings on the armour that glow, fin-like spinal ridge.

Attacks: Biting, clawing, tail-whipping, strangulation (with necks), multiple-pronged attack.

Powers: As expected of a Hydra Grimm, Lerneaus' primary ability is their multiple heads, which house disparate levels of cognitive function. The amount of heads varies from specimen to specimen - it is currently postulated by leading Grimmologists that Lerneaus spawn naturally with three heads, and grow an additional one for every five years of life. So a Lerneaus with four heads is five years old, one with five heads is ten years old, and so on. However, if, during battle with a Huntsman, a Lerneaus loses one of its heads, it will instantly regrow into two separate heads. It is not currently known if there is a maximum number of heads - the most heads ever found on a single specimen was thirty-six, and that one took the efforts of ten Huntsmen and Huntresses working in tandem to take down. Each head can also spit highly corrosive acid that can melt through just about anything.

Weaknesses: Lerneaus are less susceptible to bisections and dismemberment than most Grimm, having so many heads, but their skin is easy to break through where it is not armoured. Additionally, though it is NIGHTMARISHLY DIFFICULT, if all of its heads are removed at once, a Lerneaus will die.

Behold Ruby's worst nightmare: a Grimm that doesn't die when you decapitate it. What do you guys think?
