Line 18:

In the {{Manga|LA}}, the Grim Creeper, and Evil Eagle appear in chapter 7. Earlier Moblins had captured [[Felicia]], and given her to Creeper. The Grim Creeper attempts to dissuade Link from attacking by pointing out Felicia as a hostage, but Link manages to cut through only the Creeper, and Evil Eagle. {{Noncanon|End}}

~~==Trivia==~~

*The flute the Grim Creeper uses may be a reference to the [[Flute]] from the original {{LOZ}}. Judging by the creature's Japanese name, it is a [[wikipedia:Piccolo|piccolo]].

*The [[Skull Kid]]s may have been inspired by the Grim Creeper, as they also play a flute that they use as a weapon or to summon monsters and also wear [[Skull Mask]]s. Whether Grim Creeper is wearing a mask or not is unclear.

*The battle with the [[Twilit Carrier Kargarok]] is similar to the battle with [[Evil Eagle]] and Grim Creeper, as both involve a masked rider commandeering a huge bird.

==Etymology==

The Grim Creeper's name is ~~an obvious~~ reference to the [[Wikipedia:Death (personification)|Grim Reaper]].
