 | desc       = This oversized grub has refused to morph into its true form. Instead, it continues to consume and increase its mass to an alarming size. This self-declared King rules through fear in the Sand Crypt, commanding other mice to bring him food and defend his lair at all costs. Luckily for him, the mice fear him more than they do a hunter's trap - plus it's not too hard to swipe the cheese without the King Grub mouse knowing.

Being a gigantic grub is about the equivalent to being a gigantic baby - not too smart but prone to loud and sometimes dangerous tantrums. Mice steer clear of him as best as they can, which is okay because he prefers it that way.

The short of all this, is that you'll never attract the King Grub to your trap without liberally slathering it with an appealing scent to attract him, and you'll never defeat him without heavily salting your trap for an added boost.
