General Grievous, a name that is feared on Republic and Separatist worlds alike. Kaleesh turned cyborg, the General is cunning, ruthless, and unforgiving. Recently returned from another successful mission, the General is attacked whilst aboard The Invisible Hand and flees by breaking the forward view port. As he is pulled out into the vacuum, something goes awry and Grievous vanishes, only to reappear in a different location, which just so happens to be Equestria.
