Grouchenbax Griffen is the captain of the guards on Baronia and helped to protect King Jeck from Prince Poota's renegade faction. Despite his unquestioned loyalty to his ruler, Griffen is also rather narrow-minded and has a choleric nature. Griffen disliked herbivores because he viewed them as suspicious and their motives dubious, but he was willing to help the DSS to save his king. He was supposed to help Teggs, Arx, Gipsy, and Iggy help Jeck get over his Ribchomper's Mump Bumps, but, due to his short temper and skepticism about their motives, he wound up arguing with the astrosaurs almost as much as he helped them, once even going so far as to accuse them of working for Poota! Instead of questioning suspects, he liked to hit them over the head with his tail.
