Grievous info:

I was walkin through the book store the other day, when I came across a SW: Ep. 3 Artbook. I became interested and picked it up. I immediatly turned to the Grievous page. What I have learned:

Grievous is/was a Kaleesh warrior. Dunring the wars between the Kaleesh and Huk, Grievous fell to a Huk Jedi in battle. His body was harvested, and when his vital organs were discovered to still be intact, he was resurrected as a cyborg.

The book doesn't go on to say if the Kaleesh won that war, but it would seem so.

Grievous' peers taunt him in secret for being resurrected (some kind of honor thing, I'm assuming)

Since the wars, Grievous has hatched an extreme hatred towards all Jedi. He will slaughter any Jedi that crosses his path- except Darth Sideous, of course.

When he kills a Jedi, he takes the Jedi's lightsaber as a trophy. It is said Grievous has hundreds.

Grievous is in no way shape or form a Jedi himself, but his cyborg enhancments make it possible for him to wield a lightsaber more efficiantly than even a Jedi. Grievous' two arms are able to seperate and dislocate, becoming four arms, which enables Grievous to wield four lightsabers at a time.

Grievous has 6 fingers on each hand instead of 5, which could enable him to wield a lightsaber. That, or Kaleesh had 6 fingers to begin with....

I read it was a shuttle crash. And that deep down he feels humiliated for being resurrected as a cyborg.
