I am [[Characters/StarWarsGeneralGrievous Grievous]], apprentice of Count Dooku and Supreme Commander of the Separatist Droid Army. I am feared by the Republic's generals for my strength and agility, for Dooku has trained me in their Jedi arts.

I am known as [[Characters/StarWarsGeneralGrievous Grievous]], though I was born Qymaen jai Sheelal.

* AdaptationalWimp: As hard as I have tried, Dooku often mocks me for never living up to my peak performance during [[WesternAnimation/StarWarsCloneWars the Battle of Hypori]]. It stings most when I am reminded of [[WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars losing to]] Skywalker's [[Characters/StarWarsAhsokaTano Padawan]], and being [[Recap/StarWarsTheCloneWarsS4E4ShadowWarrior captured by the Gungans]].
