Grezit the Green

Grezit the Green is a lead character in Daniel Kravitz, Chosen One, a segment of It's All Been Done Radio Hour. Grezit is a Gahroo, a demon who does not like being called a monster. He has tiny chests and lots of cleavage. He works with the Chosen One and the new U.L.P. to fight the forces of darkness. His preferred weapons are his five claws and his mace, Mr. Smashy, though he can fight with other instruments, such as swords ("Recall Me, Maybe"). He likes the taste of pinecones ("A Chosen One Walks Into a Bar").

== Early Life ==
Grezit was happily mated to Trexel the Terrible, a fellow Gahroo. Grezit called Trexel his blumpkin, and Trexel referred to Grezit as his felchy. Trexel claimed Grezit was a 'most skilled lover' ("Blumpkin & Felchy"). Grezit had a mace he named Mr. Smashy, which he liked to cuddle while sleeping ("The Search"). Grezit left home to go on a mission to kill the Chosen One, intending to return to Trexel and his life ("Ragina").
After awhile, Grezit did get lonely and wished for a new mate ("A Chosen One Walks Into a Bar").
Grezit follows his species' belief of many gods. Grezit believes Taylor Swift is a "beautiful poet". Grezit says English is his tenth language, and he can't read it very well ("Daniel & Grezit's Crazy Christmas"). Later, Grezit claims English is his seventh language and he learned it from watching Yentl with Barbara Streisand, whom he admires ("Desperate Times"). It is unknown which of these numbers is accurate, or even if Grezit can count. Grezit claimed that he learned to speak C'mon in November 2017, his seventeenth language.
Grezit's seventh favorite thing, at least as of "Team Work," is ice-cream, and war is his eighth. He also says he considers females very unattractive, and human females especially so. He once slaughtered an entire village by himself ("Three's Company"). He hated humans, but later admitted to being wrong about them as a species ("Blumpkin & Felchy"), though he thinks they're (mostly) ugly. He enjoys eating flesh and sinew. He also claims to sprinkle respectable people on top of oatmeal for breakfast, with blueberries and cinnamon. Grezit enjoys the sound of popping bubble wrap ("Desperate Times"). He likes postcards with chimpanzees on them, which Abby knew ("Betrayed"). He does not like cats. He considers it shameful to wear a Pharrell hat if you are not happy ("Three's Company" re-run). He was familiar with Eeyore, but not The Brady Bunch ("Jant Braidley"). He is familiar with Billie Eilish and her song "bad guy" ("Witch Hunt"). He likes pretty pink straws and drinks in bowls ("A Chosen One Walks Into a Bar").
Before joining Team Chosen One, Grezit used to not like the living except his mate and himself (Georgie's Jabs "Grezit the Green"). This changed when he went to live among humans.
Grezit knew Sheila prior to his time on the series, although it has not been revealed how ("The Search"). Grezit once fought The Christmas Spirit, who he says is not nice and hates singing. The Gahroo murdered scores upon scores of people, times fifty, and is very proud of it ("A Rufus Carol").
Grezit once bragged about having a superior immune system ("A Chosen One Walks Into a Bar").
== Villain ==
Grezit first came to Brightside looking for Daniel Kravitz. On the day Grezit came to town, before he fought Daniel, he ate pralines and adolescent esophageal ice-cream, which was his favorite flavor, though he never had the opportunity to eat it again ("Blumpkin & Felchy"). Grezit intended to enslave the town to be his new kingdom on Earth. He would drink Daniel's blood and bathe in his urine. Then, Grezit would make the pets his sex slaves, the women would be his maids. He would make children do manual labor, and kill all the men. Grezit is infamous enough that he is mentioned in Rufus' texts by name.
Grezit lost his first battle when Daniel beheaded him with an axe. This was not before Grezit slaughtered several of Daniel's neighbors, however. Daniel defeats Grezit when he learns that the demon can't stand whistling ("Get Out").
Daniel burnt Grezit's body, but Abby Reynolds insisted that his head be kept on a shelf in the backroom rather than be destroyed ("Childish Thing"). As Grezit's body grew back, he was moved to a cage so he couldn't roam around the shop unsupervised. His head was briefly returned to his body through a magical spell when Abby thought herself the Chosen One, with an explanation that Abby had befriended him rather than fought him during their first encounter. However, when the spell was broken, Grezit's body disappeared again ("Abby Reynolds, Chosen One").
It took quite a while for Grezit's body to grow back to full size Although he was much taller than even Daniel, a human with above-average height, when introduced, Grezit was merely waist high more than a year after being beheaded ("The Hub"). He achieved four feet only weeks after that, indicating that he did undergo some significant growth spurts during this time ("Desperate Times"). This accelerated rate to chin-high-height temporarily left him with balance and spatial awareness problems, causing him to break several items in Kravitz Antiques, including a very expensive vase. He ate a lot, too, calling a box of cereal "so small" ("Attack on the Homestead"). By three years later, though, he was back to being the giant exceeding eight feet tall that he originally was.
== Team Chosen One ==
During Grezit's captivity, he became very fond of Abby and even begrudgingly appreciated Rufus Reginald Rochester, eventually defending Rufus when anyone else called him feeble, which Grezit said only sometimes described him ("Attack on the Homestead"). Grezit was upset when Abby went on a mission without him, but he quickly forgave her when she explained herself ("Betrayed"). He also developed a crush on Josh Wallace, and demanded blood right on those responsible for Josh's death ("The Safe House"). He soon took pride in protecting people, the opposite of what he used to do (Georgie's Jabs "Grezit the Green").
He also began to appreciate human civilization, especially ice-cream ("Ragina"), so much so that the threat of losing ice-cream for a monster was the only way to get him to abandon a fight. He also liked Frosted Puffies cereal ("Attack on the Homestead"). He enjoyed honey, which he called "delicious bee poop," as an ice-cream topping. He thought Blue's Clues was an interesting show about a cute puppy and a stupid man (Georgie's Jabs "Grezit the Green"). He covets Daniel's Big Chulapa, the largest bowl Grezit had ever seen ("Witch Hunt"). Though, he never did take to wearing deodorant ("The New Class"), which got quite smelly in the summer ("Jant Braidley").
At first, Grezit did not want to fight alongside Daniel when called upon to do so. But Daniel forced him to participate ("Team Work"). The Gahroo began to enjoy the team, an arrangement he had never considered before. It was enough to convince him to fight by their side against Ragina. And after Daniel let Ragina get away to save Grezit's life, Grezit became loyal to the Chosen One, as well. Although, Daniel continued to keep Grezit in a cage for months after ("The Hub").
It wasn't just the people that seduced Grezit. He also began to enjoy their way of life, especially when eating ice-cream. He liked to wear a kilt, possibly because Josh Wallace did, too ("The Search"). He became accustomed to the human world and had no desire to return to the Subworlds, even though he had to stay hidden or be transformed to look like a human by Josh before going out. Josh's spell left him very ugly and pasty by human standards, although Grezit thought he was more attractive than most humans ("The Search").
Grezit was very fond of Christmas, even though he at first thought tinsel was a fancy garrote. Abby kept him in line, at least during Christmas 2017, by convincing Grezit that the elf of the shelf was real and would determine if he would get presents. Grezit used to be afraid of hand-held vacuum cleaners, but got over his fear ("A Rufus Carol").
Trexel eventually came for Grezit, and Grezit left, with Daniel freeing him. But the Gahroo came right back, choosing to stay with his human friends instead of his mate. It is unknown how his mate took the decision. Daniel did not force Grezit back into the cage after this ("Blumpkin & Felchy"). Instead, Daniel pulled his college futon our of storage and put it in the backroom. Grezit called it the most comfortable bed he ever slept on it, despite it being smelly ("The Search").
Before long, and concerned people would see Grezit (as happened in "Desperate Times"), Daniel moved Grezit into the spare room of his apartment. The two didn't get along well as roommates, with Daniel thinking that Grezit licking dirty plates in the sink was gross, and Grezit objecting to Daniel leaving his giant shoes in the living room and whatever he did on Sundays ("Attack on the Homestead").
== The New U.L.P. ==
After the fall of the U.L.P., Grezit helped train the new recruits in the rebuilt organization. He was first introduced to the students as a monster who attacked Daniel, even though the fight was staged. What wasn't staged was that Daniel cut Grezit's head off, apparently not the first time this had happened to Grezit within a year. Previously, it had taken days for sorcerer Alfredo, whom Grezit liked, to reattach the noggin. This time, it was done within hours ("The New Class"). He also hated attending meetings. His apartment on the ranch was just past the library ("A Chosen One Walks Into a Bar").
However, in a large group, his fighting skills were less necessary and he became frustrated with his lack of real combat, even more so when asked to pull punches. He delighted when he finally got a bit of combat action (Packer & Ratcliff "The Pursuit of Packer"), but moped when told to hang back. He felt laughed out and unnecessary, forgotten by his friends. Daniel finally confronted Grezit and made him understand that the work they were doing was necessary, and he needed Grezit's help. That made Grezit a lot more cooperative ("Jant Braidley"), and the Gahroo would soon after declare Daniel his buddy, though was disappointed to think Daniel still might not trust him ("Ready Player Chosen One").
During this time, Grezit did continue to romantically pursue Josh Wallace, who was not into it. He also saw Alexis Augustus Armentrout's naked butt, and declared it bald. Though he did not hit on Alexis, nor Larry when the two met (Packer & Ratcliff "The Pursuit of Packer"). Grezit felt very betrayed and sad, though, when he learned Josh's body was being inhabited by someone else. He did not look kindly upon those who had anything to do with it ("Cave of Wonders").
Grezit could still go out in the real world appearing as a human, even though Alfredo's spell was sometimes itchy. But the spell did not change Grezit's height or voice, like when Josh had done such a spell ("The Witch"), until Alfredo improved over time and got him down to just over six feet tall ("A Chosen One Walks Into a Bar"). Grezit continued to act like himself, which was especially awkward when sniffing the floor of a police station to track a missing detective. Grezit was almost shot ("Deceit of Clay").
Grezit thought golems tasted yucky and wasn't very effective in fighting them ("Witch Hunt").
When Rufus became concerned about Abby's lying and secrecy, he tried to talk to Grezit. Gredit refused to gossip about his bestie behind her back and immediately told Daniel ("Words You Don't Want to Hear"). Daniel tasked Grezit with keeping an eye on Rufus, which is why Grezit accompanied Rufus to a bar and into a trap. Despite having drank thirty-three beers, Grezit holds his own in a fight against E'Kjo and rips the monster in half. He does, however, accidentally stab Rufus in the leg with his claw while attempting to retrieve keys from Rufus' front pocket.
Grezit's superior sense of smell can help him identify individuals, but not necessarily recognize a monster in disguise. He has a fake ID that Kai Akane made for him identifies him as George Human, age 28, from 4813 Fort Avenue, Chicago, Illdiana 60631. In disguise, Grezit did not look at all underage. He can consume copious amounts of alcohol, such as more than thirty bottles of beer or a mop bucket full of tap beer, in one sitting, though either gets him pretty drunk ("Maneuvers;" "A Chosen One Walks Into a Bar").
Sucked into a video game, Grezit ate to death an arcade version of his former mate, Trexel, and ripped apart the game version of his bestie, Abby, proving he can be vicious even to those he loves when the situation calls for it. Overall, while he doesn't typically enjoy video games, he liked being in one because it involved lots of killing and he wondered what pixelated blood tasted like ("Ready Player Chosen One").
Escaping from the game, Grezit defended the ranch from Monbo's monster army. He went into full feral mode, impressing the trainees with his brutality, including when he ripped apart a Sphinx. He splashed in a creature's blood, imitating Lebron James. Through this, he worked well with the rest of his group and protected them, too, with a special focus on protecting Abby. Near the end of the battle, Grezit saves Stephanie Garcia before being tossed back himself. Following the fight, Grezit vows to hunt down both Mortimer Miles McClendon and Kai Akane and make them pay ("With Great Power...").
== Guest Spot on Georgie's Jabs ==
At some point during Volume 2, Grezit was secretly plucked from his home and taken to Pymer Labs to appear on the inter-dimensional talk show, Georgie's Jabs. He never mentioned the experience in-episode again, so it's unknown is his memory was wiped, or if it just wasn't a pivotal experience for him.
== Substitute Performer ==
Ryan Yohe was not available to participate in IABD Classic 1, so Keith Jackson played Grezit in a re-run of "Childish Thing."
== Trivia ==
Grezit the Green was intended to be a one-episode character, and the line about beheading not killing him was supposed to just be a joke. Thankfully, it provided a loophole when it became clear that Grezit would make a terrific addition to the ensemble cast, finalizing the initial squad.
