- “"ARGH! This Spell Book is worthless! Look what it did to me! I've got two heads and four headaches!”
- —Grendor
Grendor is an evil Rhynoc wizard who is the main antagonist in Spyro: Season of Ice.
Appearance
In his normal form, Grendor is a simple, pink rhynoc. When the spell backfired, Grendor was turned into a large, red and green rhynoc with two heads; the green head is always shown to be sad whilst the other is always enraged.
Abilities
Without his wand, Grendor can cast fire magic and use his own strength to try and crush his enemies. With his wand, he can conjure not only fire spells but ice spells as well.
Story
Grendor was a Rhynoc who, along with the many other Rhynocs, became jobless after the defeat of the Sorceress. He was given a job at the Grand Central Dragon Realms library as its librarian, but Grendor desperately longed for a career change. He never made the cut into the Rhynoc army for being small and meek. Finding the Sorceress' Spell Book left behind by Bianca, he was inspired to use a transformation spell that can turn him into a towering mass of muscle and brainpower. Unfortunately in his haste, Grendor read the spell upside down, causing it to backfire. It accelerated his muscle and brainpower, but it also caused him to gain an extra head and a massive headache, which drove him towards fits of rage and corrupted his mind. Desperate to reverse the effects, he found out that the antidote was the wings of 100 magical fairies. Grendor then invaded the Fairy Realms, froze all of the fairies in ice using a magical spell, and deployed Rhynocs to gather those frozen fairies.[1]
Unfortunately for Grendor's plan, Spyro managed to free 99 of those fairies and was able to confront him in his lair. There, he defeated Grendor and rescued Zoe. Upon being freed, Zoe casted a simple spell and Grendor returned to his normal pink form. He apologized for his actions and thanked them for freeing him of his psychosis, happy that he no longer had a headache.
