Lebensauger

A Lebensauger (LAY-bən-zow-gər; Germ. Leben "life" + Sauger "sucker"; pl. Lebensauger) is a lamprey-like Wesen that first appeared in.

Biology
When woged, Lebensauger gain brown skin that is lumpy and molted in appearance, while their nose disappears almost entirely, save for the nostrils. Lebensaugers have large, round, fang filled gaping maws in the place of their human mouths. Their mouths naturally hang open, but move like a human mouth when they talk. Since Ryan Smulson was able to quickly drag Bud away, it seems that they are at least as strong as ordinary humans.

Behavior
Due to their hideous appearance, they often experience self-loathing and even identity crisis, preferring to become what they want to be. They are generally considered to be amongst the most repulsive of Wesen and are subsequently known to be prone to substance abuse, for example Lenore Smulson is an alcoholic. Lebensauger are exceptionally good at keeping their true nature a secrete and rarely Woge in front of other Wesen. They are also shown to be very good actors, partially due to their ability, and their strong desire, to adopt the identity of who they want to be. Their mastery of Woge suppression and their acting talents allow Lebensauger to keep their true natures hidden from Grimms, something no other known Wesen can do.
