 Grue (monster) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Grues are also present in the roguelike Nethack, in which they are one of several monsters that the player may think he or she sees while hallucinating, and in the browser-based RPG Kingdom of Loathing, as a nocturnal fighting familiar.
Grues are a very common reference in hacker culture among computer-savvy people old enough to have been playing games in the Infocom era.
Grues were also introduced as actual, very high-level monsters one could fight; among the menagerie of "elemental" monsters such as fire lizards or stone giants were "elemental grues" which were supposedly grues advanced enough in elemental (magic) power that they could "wreath themselves in shadows" and fight against players in the light.
