Biography[]
Blade: Trinity[]
Jarko Grimmwood follows the Talos siblings, Danica and Asher, to the Syrian desert, where they find, in a Ziggurat, the tomb of Dracula, the first and most powerful vampire. After relocating him to the Talos' headquarters, the vampire group is informed that their sworn enemy, Blade, has been captured by the FBI. He's was taken into custody by two of their familiars, Chief Martin Vreede and doctor Edgar Vance. Grimmwood goes to the FBI with the other vampires, but they're attacked by the Nightstalkers, who've come to free Blade. Grimmwood has a brief fight with the Day-Walker, but he's easily defeated, and manages to escape only using another vampire as a shield. Continuing the pursuit, he is taken out by one of Abigail Whistler's arrows (who curiously doesn't use a silver arrow when she shoots Jarko and he ends up just losing an eye). Once back at the base, the vampires mourn their defeat, but Drake intervenes, claiming he's ready to join the fight personally and to take the command of the operations, much to Danica's frustration. Under Drake's leadership, the vampires annihilate most of the Nightstalkers and have their cell leader, Hannibal King, an ex-vampire, abducted. Jarko enjoys himself while torturing King, mocking him and engaging a sort of verbal contest, which he clearly loses. After hours of beating, King reveals to his captors that he's got, a transmitter hidden in his body and some seconds later Blade and Abigail arrive at the scene. Jarko is once again defeated by Blade but once again he manages to flee with his life. Immediately after King disposes of Pac-Man and two vampire Doberman, Jarko reappears, engaging a fight with an exhausted King. The vampire easily defeats the hunter, but when he's about to bite his neck, Hannibal King inserts a light-bomb in his steel teeth: Jarko, biting the bomb, ends up incinerated.

He displays skilled fighting abilities, and is the leader of Talos' personal guard. While he's very brutal, he shows a genuine fondness his vampire Pomeranian, Pac-Man whom he often cuddles when he's not in battle.
