Groo first appeared as a parody of the brutal sword & sorcery heroes who were popular in the 1970s, especially Conan the Barbarian.  Groo is a large-nosed buffoon of unsurpassed stupidity who constantly misunderstands his surroundings.  Possessed of superlative swordsman skills (the only thing he’s good at) he delights in combat but otherwise is a peaceable and honest fellow who makes his way through life as a mercenary or by working odd jobs.  He is incredibly accident-prone, despite good intentions he causes mass destruction wherever he goes.  This talent for destruction is so widely known, simply word of his approach is enough to cause chaos.  Groo has slain entire armies with nothing more than his swords.  He loves these frays, and often charges into the melee with the battlecry “Now Groo does what Groo does best!”
