He was once a Kaleesh warlord who developed a personal vendetta against the Republic, and especially Jedi, before suffering great injuries in a ship crash and which led to him then being rebuilt as an alien cyborg.

He serves as the Supreme Commander of the Sepertists' Droid Armies during the Clone Wars. He is trained in all lightsaber combat forms by Count Dooku to rival Jedi, making him one of the most infamous assassins and feared killers.

"*I'm no errand boy. And I'm not in this war just for Dooku's politics. I am the leader of the most powerful droid army the galaxy has ever seen!*"

—General Grievous, to Obi-Wan Kenobi.

## Personality

Grievous was cold, cruel, sadistic, ruthless, brutal, immoral, reckless, restless, loyal, short-tempered, calculating, and very intelligent.

Though Grievous had virtually no compassion for comrades, allies or enemies, he was not completely heartless and emotionless as he did occasionally show empathy; Grievous cared deeply for his people, especially for his female partner Ronderu lij Kummar. The two were very close, and after her death, Grievous was left distraught and angry. His rage only intensified, and he became determined to crush the Huk, if for no other reason than to honor her memory.

Though he hated being told what to do, Grievous was very loyal and respectful to others in his side of the alliance, especially Count Dooku and Darth Sidious. Grievous also showed a certain amount of attachment to his pet Roggwart Gor; he treated the beast like a beloved pet rather than a monster, and was visibly shocked and angered by his death at the hands of Kit Fisto. Gor's death left Grievous evermore hateful of the Jedi.

Despite his intelligence and fighting skills, or perhaps because of them, Grievous was arrogant to the point of occasionally underestimating his opponents. This pride, as well as his other negative traits was what eventually lead to Grievous' death at the hands of Obi-Wan Kenobi.
