## Personality

Griss is an honourable man. Despite being a supporter (which some like Follo desire to 'get out of') he takes pride in his work and gets it done efficiently. He isn't afraid to recognize others and respect them, such as Riyou, Follo or Rudo. While imposing at first, Griss is really a kind man who will help and listen to others.

## Synopsis

### Plot

#### **Workplace Observation Arc**

Griss is seen amongst the many janitors staying at HQ, and is later recruited onto Riyou's cleanup mission. Riyou introduces him to Rudo, who immediately comes to learn of his strong grip. A group of aberrant beasts, including a very large one, emerges. As Riyou engages them in battle, Griss and the rest get to work, advising Rudo to do the same. As a beast emerges from behind Rudo, Griss crushes it's skull and launches it towards Riyou, who promptly kills it. Griss and others continue to clear the rest of the beasts out. As Griss watches Riyou, a beast almost takes Follo out. Griss blames himself for this and thanks Rudo. Griss then questions Riyou on whether she had defeated the big one, and is shocked when she reveals she cannot kill it.

Griss struggles to believe a beast wouldn't be effected by a jinki, but pulls together and prepares to evacuate nearby towns and report the beast as a new type. In the beasts rage, Rudo is nearly killed but Griss saves him and runs away, stating it's ok to do so. Upon Riyou defeating the beast, he is even more shocked to find it was powered by another jinki. A party is held to celebrate Rudo being welcomed to the abyss, and Griss sits with a rather depressed Rudo. He thanks Rudo and tells him he did good against the beast. After a long talk, he reassures Rudo and two go off to eat

#### **Vandals Trap Arc**

The following day, Griss is summoned alongside Zanka and Rudo to go follow up on a cleaning request. On the way, Follo reveals Griss has an amulet which he prays to before missions, to his embarrassment. After being spooked by the merchant who requested them, they are led into a trap set by the Vandals in a warehouse. Griss and the other supporters find an exit, and while a few head up to contact backup, Griss, Follo and Rudo remain behind for Zanka. Hearing footsteps coming , the group believe it to be Zanka, but discover it is Jabber Wongar, one of the Vandals. Follo and Griss attempt to attack only to be stopped, and as Jabber approaches Rudo, Griss gets in the way, prepared to defend Rudo to his last breath, only for Jabber piece him and declare him dead.

As Griss lies on the floor bleeding out, Follo does his best to cover the wound, and once backup arrives, Griss is tended to by Aesha Stilza. Once the group returns to the Janitors Headquarters, Griss quickly recovers in hospital thanks to Aesha, and calms down both Rudo and Follo who feared the worst.

#### **The Lady Of Penta Arc**

Griss is selected to join Rudo on his mission into Penta. Before going there, they stopped off in Canvas Town, and upon hearing of Gobs death, Griss mourns him.

#### **Reaching to Heaven Arc**

Griss, Follo and Thoum accompany team Akuta to Done Dulse to unwind after their mission to Penta but they’re surprised attacked by the Vandals who use Kutohni’s jinki to teleport away team Akuta and team Child leaving the support team behind.
He’s later seen driving to the janitors location.

## Abilities

As a janitor, Griss is expected to fight beasts on a day to day basis. Despite lacking a jinki, he can rely on his other skills.

* **Strength:** Griss has incredible strength. His grip especially stands out, with a simple handshake causing Rudo pain. With just one hand he is able to crush the armour of an Aberrant Beast, which is known to be tough. He is also able to throw said beasts incredible distances.
