I don't really think the etymology of the word has anything to do with Charlemagne, who might as well not exist in the sort-of-a-plot in the game.

I'm sure sometime after they gutted the story and replaced it with Door Simulator 2014 they put a list of words on a whiteboard like 'tome' and 'compendium' and 'codex' and 'grimoire' won.

Could it be an homage to the grimbrothers?

I love the brothers Grim, but no. See the definition posted above.

Etymology: French, from Old French,

You forgot Pogs, bro.

I'd be down for winning GRIMOIRE cards from defeated foes in crucible. Maybe that should be the new iron banner.
