Grog, formerly the Duchess's Champion, now the People's Champion, is the greatest warrior of the
hoppers. He guards their home within the
Wastewater Treatment Facility.
Description
Far taller and ten times heavier than his minions, Grog is a ridiculously muscular hopper with vacant black eyes. He wears a ragged ceremonial sash that marks him as "Champion."
Personality
Fervently loyal to his duty as protector, he is also aggressive, headstrong, and stupid.
Abilities
In addition to his prowess with heavy weapons, Grog can croak forcefully enough to harm and nauseate his enemies. Also, he can enter an enraged state of heightened strength and speed as more of his blood is spilt.
Relationships
Allies
Although he is devoted to the
Duchess, Grog is equally serious about his role as the protector of the smaller, weaker hoppers. He is regularly manipulated by the
Prophet and his schemes; however, Grog trusts the advisor blindly.
Enemies
He loathes the
Rat King and actively hunts down his
servants.
History
When
Kapital sought to rescue a
Silver Order knight from the Wastewater Treatment Facility, Grog demanded tribute for the Duchess when the group were finally spotted. While the Prophet discussed possibly releasing the prisoner with the Duchess,
Kragan Blacktusk sparred with the Champion; unfortunately, he struck Grog in the face, unintentionally challenging him to a duel to the death.
Standing on giant lily pads, contaminated sewer water sloshing below, the group clashed with Grog. The battle was bloody and almost disastrous, until Kragan struck down the Champion with a lightning-imbued sword. Downplaying their own victory, the group renewed Grog's shattered confidence and named him "the People's Champion." Grateful, he thanked them and offered a favor if they ever returned to the sewers.
