===Notes:===
:*Spawned by trading Massive Armband to ??? at F-10. 1 minute respawn.
:*Lightning Roar brings on the non-dispellable Shock Spikes, so stun Lightning Roar.
:**Lightning Roar can be delayed by use of Blu Head Butt, but will eventually build resistance to stun effect. 
:*Can use Trebuchet. Will reset hate when he uses it.
:*Uses a special form of Catapult that bypasses (doesn't wipe) shadows.
::*Catapult has an additional Dispel effect.
:*Accuracy seems to rise the lower his health.
::*Catapult accuracy follows this pattern as well.
:*Heavily resistant to Blind effects, but it can stick. Slow and Paralyze can be landed with somewhat less difficulty.
:*Due to the ???'s proximity to the usual patrol paths of the Demersal Gigas, as well as their respawn rate, having one of them link onto the mages is a fairly common occurence. Anyone not fighting at the wall should keep watch for any unexpected rocks flung at them and be prepared to Sleep.
==Historical Background==
In literature, Grandgousier (French: grand gosier, "Big Throat") is the husband of Gargamelle, the daughter of the King of Papillons, and the father of Gargantua.
A Rabelaisien character par excellence, he has an appreciation of all of life's pleasures, like good living, good food.
Rabelais has him represent a stereotypical wise good king, in apposition to the revengefully mad bad king of Picrochole. Grandgousier advocates peace and discussion over war and greed.
