omyGAWD, i never realized that before @syscrash53, it would make sense that the royals enlisted the help of hexenbeists (since hexenbiests, quote, "work at the behest of royalty") to create grimms.

@hexenbest, yeah using magic as a plot is lazy, and its much harder to create new mythologies and explanations like what monroe and rosalee's character are all about, since they always use science and lore to explain how a wesen operates and what neutralizes their powers. its harder to come up with ingredients that makes sense, even though its all made up. but  the zaubertrank is kind of scientific in a way, a primitive science that predates modern science, after all, magic is just undiscovered science in my opinion. it doesnt excuse the writers from using reasons based on genetics or legend, than it excuses them using hexenbiest "magic" in a similar way because as long as they limit the hexenbiests to the hat, the skeleton key, the grimoire etcetera, then i wouldnt mind letting them get away with some things, unless time travelling is introduced then im done. lol.
