Thread: about Griever

  1. #1

    Default about Griever

    needless to say, i'm not asking for advice. a lot of ppl say that Griever is a lion. well, he's a lion and a tiger to me. yeah, i see the mane, but, notice the red stripes? he's obviously both and that's not hard to argue for.

    Chimera . . . gigantic guardian force Chimera.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Well. I think Griever is a Great Lion. I think the wings can describe his bad side (XD well the only time you face him is when you go with Ultimecia). Have you ever noted that Squall said sometime that the one in his ring & necklace was a Lion? Named Griever of course. So I still think Griever is a Lion, not a Chimera or anything like that but a Lion. Greetings! XD

    Bats and mosquitos have wings.

    Anyways, a 'chimera' could desribe a combination of any two or more creatures, so Griever definitely fits the bill. I'd say he definitely has the head of a Lion. Squall's ring was modelled after a lion, and the song that plays during one of the Griever fights is titled 'Maybe I'm a Lion'.

    I think when you name him you name him in the last boss.
    Therefore name him dumbass and he will be called dumbass during the final boss.

    Just a thoery

    You're right, if you change griever's name it does affect what he is called in the last fight (suffice to say my friend has come up with some pretty crude stuff). Anyway, that aside, I think griever is partially a lion and partially something linked to Rinoa (maybe Squall's love for her?) That would explain the feathered wings- I mean Rinoa has one on her back...

    You name him because he's the legendary GF.

    Whether you get to use him or not is irrelevant. You name every other GF in the game, so why not this one?

    Well, other than Tiamat, the poster child for when GFs go bad.

    obviously his 'former gf' status exempts him.

    That makes me wonder why Griever is still a GF. They both are controlled by Ultimecia. The difference seems to be Tiamat is not junctioned and Griever is. And there are plenty of unjunctioned GFs the party encounters, like Ifrit, Diablos, Brothers, Doomtrain and Bahamut. Could it be that Tiamat somehow has become unjunctionable?
