Hexenbiest/Zauberbiest[edit] Hexenbiester (HEKS-ən-beest) are witch-like Wesen, who, when they voge, have silver-white hair and ugly, rotten faces without eyes or with deformed eyes. They are infamous for brewing primitive concoctions and brews called Zaubertrank (singular)/ Zaubertränke(plural) (German for magic potion) that have various compulsive, highly emotional and/or ultimately deadly effects on humans. Hexenbiests can be identified by a birthmark on the underside of their tongue. Hexenbiests have a reputation for working for royalty and are extremely loyal. All Hexenbiests are strikingly beautiful in human form, making them masters of seduction and manipulation. They make excellent lawyers. Hexenbiests are the only natural enemies of Mellifers, but their greatest weakness is the ingestion of the blood of a Grimm, which will render them completely human. Hexenbiest is the combination of the German words for witch and beast. A Hexenbiest was first seen in the Pilot, and their nature was revealed in Beeware. Rosalee also reveals in Mr. Sandman that the name Hexenbiest properly applies to females of the species; a male would be called a Zauberbiest (magic beast).
