The Sisters Grimm (novel Series) - Main Characters

Main Characters

  • Sabrina Grimm: Sabrina is shown having long blond hair and big blue eyes. Sabrina is said to also resemble her mother as she has her face. She is stubborn and does whatever she believes is right. She usually takes on the role as a leader when she, Daphne, and Puck are alone, but it is later shown that she sometimes finds that having everyone look at her for the answer is stressing. She is sometimes overprotective of Daphne but it's only because she wants her sister to be safe. She is always fighting with Puck, but it is obvious that they have feelings for each other. In the first couple of books she has plenty of suspicion, none too good. Her sister and her are constantly bickering. But only because Sabrina doesn't really consider Daphne's opinions, she is constantly arguing with everybody in her family because of her choices. In the series' epilogue she ends up marrying Puck and has two daughters, Alison and Emma.
  • Daphne Grimm: Daphne is the younger sister of Sabrina, and is shown having brown hair that is usually in ratty pigtails. She is quite kind, and head strong, mixed with stubbornness too. She is Sabrina's reason for not giving up hope. She has her own special quirks, such as biting her palm when she is excited and making up words for her own language (such as gravy, which means cooler than cool, and pucktastic, meaning Puck in the best possible way). She gets tired of Sabrina always protecting her, and grows up to the point where she can give Sabrina some helpful advice. Puck calls her "Marshmallow" and she is close to the family dog, Elvis. It's also mentioned that she has a large appetite and can sleep through anything, except breakfast. Sabrina states that the word "full" isn't in Daphne's vocabulary. Daphne later gets married and is expecting twins.
  • Mr. Canis/Big Bad Wolf/Tobias Clay: Mr. Canis is introduced as Relda Grimm's friend in the first book. He's the Big Bad Wolf in the form of "Mr. Canis." His eyes glow bright blue in photographs because of his Big Bad Wolf trait. He struggles with his Wolf self in the beginning of book two and is anything but "fine." The Grimms saved him from the wolf, and he is now on a mission to regain the memories of his life before the wolf. He is described as very skinny, and wears a suit that seems too big for him.
  • Relda Grimm: As the grandmother of Sabrina and Daphne, Relda suddenly shows up and takes them in 18 months after the girls were put in the foster system. She has gray hair with specks of red and green eyes. She is the one who introduces them to the land of Everafters and magic. Granny Relda had red hair in her youth. She has green eyes and a round face. She usually wears a hat with a sunflower on it, and is known for the odd dishes that she makes.
  • Jake Grimm: The Grimm girls uncle, who appears in the third book and is a major character from then on. He has a huge crush on Sleeping Beauty, but sadly, her fairy godmothers disprove of him. He has a huge long coat, sort like a duster, it has tons of pockets on it, all filled with magical things. He supposedly killed Basil Grimm, his own father, and is devastated by it. He has blond hair and blue eyes and also a healing broken nose.
  • Puck: Puck is a 4000 year old fairy prince who lives in the form of an 12 year old boy. Puck is an ever-after with blonde hair, green eyes and a mischievous grin. He has pink streaked insect-like wings which pop out of his back at will. He ends up living with the Grimms after helping them in the first book - he was living in the forest before moving in with Granny Relda, only going to her house for a free meal - and officially becomes part of the family. He is also known as the Trickster King, and is always playing pranks, usually targeted at Sabrina. He fights using his wooden sword, can fly while carrying Sabrina and Daphne, can transform into many forms (like turning his head into a donkey's, or morphing elephant legs), and - using a bottle of soda - can burp a stream of fire. He likes being the center of attention, and is jealous when he is not in the spotlight. Despite the overtone of annoyance between him and Sabrina, the preteens have let it slip that they have romantic feelings for each other. Puck even begins aging again, and it was suggested by Daphne that Puck's aging is due to him wanting to keep up with Sabrina. He has a royal faerie family back in New York City (they gave the impression they disapprove of Puck's behavior), although Puck mourned his father, Oberon, after his death, and appears to care for them, despite his protests to the contrary. He has a brother named Mustardseed, a mother named Titania and an ex-fiancee named Moth (who Puck refused to wed, causing his falling-out with his family). He despises being mistaken for Peter Pan. In the end Sabrina almost marries another man named Bradley. However, during the ceremony, she has second thoughts and Puck crashes the wedding. It is implied that she then marries Puck, and they have two daughters, Alison and Emma Grimm. It is also implied that Puck goes back to his kingdom and reclaims his crown.
  • Mirror: He is the guardian of the mirror that kept some of the most dangerous tools found in some famous fariy tales such as "Dorothy's slippers" or "Magic Carpet" in the hands of wrongdoing it can lead to chaos. He is considered a part of the Grimm family, and Sabrina states, "in many ways, he's my best friend."
  • The Master: The mysterious leader of the Scarlet Hand which plans to take over the world: both humans and Everafters. He is often mentioned in the series, and The Grimm's do their best to find out who he is.
  • Basil Grimm ll: Sabrina and Daphne's little brother who was discovered in book 7. He has bright red hair and green eyes. The Master kidnapped him because he wanted to take over his body to escape the barrier of Ferryport Landing.
  • Basil Grimm (grandfather) Sabrina and Daphne's grandfather. He died long ago, before the girls were born, and Jacob Grimm accused himself of killing him. Basil was actually killed by a Jabberwocky and Red Riding Hood when he was cornered on a cliff. He was in the hospital for a few days, then died.
  • Elvis: He is the Grimm family dog, and often seems to understand what the Grimm's are telling him to do. He is a Great Dane, and is harmless as long as he likes you. His best friend is Daphne, and they are great companions. Elvis even jumped into the bath with Daphne! He can't have sausages, as they make him very gassy. Although he is a friendly, slobbery dog, he is very good at finding clues.
