* HeavyMetalUmlaut: He’s Nordic, and his name features a Norwegian/Danish "slashed o" -- Ø -- though the name itself doesn't make complete sense in either of those languages. The nearest equivalent would be something like "Grøholt", which is a perfectly regular Norwegian name, so he may have simply shortened it, or it could also be a translation error, as the name makes more sense ''without'' the 'h' at the end -- "Grø" is a Norwegian surname, as well as the name of a mountain in Rogaland.

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: It remains to be seen if Namco will correct their error, but the Nordic name "Grø" would ''never'' have an "h" at the end -- no Norwegian or Danish[[note]] the only nations to use the letter[[/note]] words have an "h" following the slashed o letter. This is therefore likely a phonetic spelling from when his name was translated from Japanese characters, though even this is still wrong -- the name isn't pronounced with an "oh" sound at the end, but rather "ø" is pronounced roughly like the "i" in "sir".

Hang on. King Arthur was a wielder of Soul Calibur, and Aval sounds a lot like Avalon. Given Groh's other Arthurian references - his weapon being called "Aerondight Replica" and one of his lines being a quote regarding Lancelot, it seems more likely the king referred to was Arthur, not Algol.


* ChekhovsGunman: The Aval Organization are the descendants of those who [[spoiler:served under Algol, keeping his legend alive and maintaining Soul Calibur's existence -- which connects the organization to Zasalamel, the last living member of Soul Calibur's original guardians]].

The primary candidate is Algol, who sacrificed himself to create Soul Calibur and entrusted an order of mystics -- of which Zasalamel was a member -- with guarding it and destroying Soul Edge. Given that Grøh draws from Lancelot, as his default weapon is called the Aerondight Replica and one of his quotes -- "Chevalier mal fet!" -- is a reference to T.H. White's ''The Ill-Made Knight'', another candidate is King Arthur, the second known wielder of Soul Calibur as named in ''New Legends of Project Soul''.



* DoubleWeapon: His weapon can best be described as two swords fused at the hilt, though [[BifurcatedWeapon they can be separated]].
