Grendel sees every battlefield as a smorgasbord. His insatiable appetite rewards him with high survivability. Enemies will be eaten. And regurgitated.
Grendel eats enemies with Feast to fill his gut, then either rolls in as an armored ball with Pulverize to flatten rooms or fires them back out with Regurgitate for a scaling AoE hit that strips armor and spreads Viral. He's a tanky, self-contained room-clearer built around managing how many enemies he's swallowed, strong in Steel Path but clunky if you ignore the eat-and-spit loop.

Ability 2NourishRegenerate health as Grendel absorbs nourishment from enemies in his gut.
