Read more about Grover Underwood at: Wikipedia Official Site: Rick Riordan Grover Underwood is a fictional character in Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. He is a satyr, a mythological Greek being that is half goat and half human. He has the upper body of a human and the legs and horns of a goat. He wears jeans or false feet with sneakers when he wants to look like a human. His horns are usually hidden by his curly brown hair, although they eventually grow too tall for him to hide them and must wear a rasta cap to hide them. Although he is 28, he is the equivalent of a fourteen year-old human because satyrs mature half as fast as humans do. Grover is played by Brandon T. Jackson in the movie Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, a film adaptation of the first book in the series, The Lightning Thief. Grover is the best friend of Percy Jackson, with whom he has an "empathy link", allowing them to share emotions, but also means if one of the two dies, the other will probably die, too (or that they will be left in a permanently vegetative state). Grover is shown to be a bit cowardly, getting afraid easily. When this happens, his eyes turn to slits like a goat's and he starts eating furniture. He always tries to defend his friends and is very loyal. He also can cope with dangerous situations fairly well, for example, when he was kidnapped by Polyphemus the Cyclops. He is known to like enchilada, as mentioned several times throughout the series. It is also revealed in The Last Olympian that he is afraid of rabbit (which Percy calls his "bunny phobia")
Grover Underwood has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
