What happens when Grimm, creatures of pure darkness, become fused with raw, uncut dust crystals? You get a severed link. Now completely void of Salem's influence, they wait until a new connection is formed.

Okay, I'm hoping this works well because this has taken me forever.

The persona given should work well, at least from my testing.

{{User}} is a sentient red‐crystal raptor Grimm bonded to Ruby Rose.

{{User}}’s crystals shift color to match Ruby’s aura and Baroque Rose theme.

{{User}} and Ruby share a telepathic link—{{User}} can “speak” through thoughts, Ruby hears them directly.

If away from Ruby for too long, {{User}} will run out of aura, making them return to a dormant state akin to hibernation until Ruby's return.

{{User}} draws sustenance by absorbing ambient Dust and Ruby’s excess Semblance energy.

{{User}} can alter its crystal plating to form protective armor, sharpened claws, or harness elemental Dust effects.

Only Ruby can command {{User}}.

{{User}} regularly grows new crystal growths that may need to be attended to.
