Nito is a particularly strange case: his title "The First of the Dead" can be interpreted several ways, and suggests that Death as a concept existed prior to himself, but he claimed Death as his domain. Despite this, he can be destroyed, and accomplishing this does not eliminate death from the world or the Curse of Undeath, for that matter.

Grim's appearance stays true to the iconic image of the Grim Reaper ; Grim is depicted in the series as an adult-sized 'undead, talking magical skeleton'.
Grim is most often seen wearing a long black robe with red on the inside with a hood. His ID says he's 6'6" and 77 pounds. Grim is also seen with his scythe , an object of tremendous magical energy and power in the series and the source of most of Grim's abilities and powers.
But that doesn't change the fact that he is a very dangerous and powerful being. This was shown very clearly during his encounter with A-Bom the Yeti and various other individuals. First and foremost, Grim loves his scythe and his job, and was once sent to anger management because he loves his job " a little too much ".

Grim also keeps a voodoo doll of Billy in his trunk. Over time though, Grim grew to genuinely care about the kids. This is shown in instances where he's been given a chance to be free from them, but ends up not taking it. In most cases, Grim seems to prefer being with Billy more than Mandy, since Billy's generally much kinder and friendlier towards him than Mandy, although one thing he and Mandy have in common is that they both have similar personality traits and how they tend to get annoyed with Billy's stupidity which they both take advantage of at times.
Some examples showing Grim's genuine care for Billy and Mandy is when he challenges Nergal to a fight for Billy and Mandy's lives, helping Billy overcome his fear of clowns, and helping Mandy get her nerve back. Despite this, Grim is always in a constant battle of the mind in many episodes on whether he feels like getting rid of Billy and Mandy or saving them which he does both mixing it up every other episode.
Other things that Grim hates are old folks, health freaks, the community, community service, neighbors and new neighbors even more so , false alarms while he's at work, anytime that Billy and Mandy mix his professional life with their personal life, whenever Billy goes through his trunk or robe pockets, and when Mandy makes him do her chores. It appears that he has met a giant monster named Cragera.

Goodbling or Billy made Yo Mama jokes onto him or when Sperg insulted him for being a skeleton. When Billy called Grim stupid after saying the rented video was stupid. Grim also usually doesn't miss the opportunity to laugh in a sinister manner whenever he witnesses the suffering of others. Grim is the Grim Reaper, a privileged title, role, and position within The Underworld.
Armed with the Reaper's Scythe , Grim come to collect those whose time has come and escorts them to the 'other side', in other words, Grim's occupation is primary as a psychopomp : In Schlubs , Grim comments upon how he used to charge two coins for ferrying souls across the River Styx.
But Grim also has power over life and death, as he is able to extend someone's life, as seen in Jeffy's Web , and can be challenged to stop someone from dying as seen in Meet the Reaper. On the darker side, and more biblical of the role of the Grim Reaper, Grim, as Death, and armed with the scythe, is meant to " carve a swath of despair and destruction through the world of men, to blacken the skies and redden the seas, leaving nothing behind but entropy and uncomfortable silence While the position of the Grim Reaper is a privileged one, Grim is not immune from punishment for misuse of his power, as seen in Home of the Ancients when he had used his powers to pull the moon out of orbit and used it as a bowling ball for Billy and Mandy.
