Big Grim is the leader of the Hounds faction. She can be found in the Hounds Faction HQ in Shark. In order to join the Hounds, players need to find Ears to "smooth things over." Player characters can talk to Big Grim before speaking to Ears, but she will not be friendly.
She has the Diplomatic Status tag and will critically decrease relations with the Hounds if you attack her.
When she just appeared in the Swamp as the leader of the Hounds, she wrote a letter to Darkbrow with an offer an alliance. It is indicative of her low level of literacy, but also of her diplomatic qualities.
She has the Brave Personality. They wear [High] armour (10% chance of [Specialist]) and have weapons manufactured by Unknown.

Interactions[]
After talking to Ears, players can speak to Big Grim about joining the Hounds. Big Grim wants the player to "drop" (smuggle) some hash into the UC (United Cities) and return the profit to her, this is the first assignment she gives to the player.
There is dialogue where she asks the player to drop one of the Swamp gang leaders that they are carrying. She will not attack if the player is allied with the Hounds but will express her disapproval either way. Being allied ends with nearby Hounds expressing their embarrassment.
World States[]
If Big Grim is killed or kidnapped, this will cause Shark to be taken over by Blackshifters, or Grayflayers if Big Darkbrow is also killed. The Hound's Welcome, Hound Check In and Revenge of the Hounds events will cease to trigger.
If both Big Gray and Big Grim are not alive while Tora the Fearless is, then Band of Bones take over Grayflayer Village and may make that their new headquarters.
If Grim, Darkbrow and Big Gray are all dead, Rot is taken over by spiders.
