History: 

The Groosalugg is a native of Pylea, a hell dimension where humans were treated as slaves and called cows. He is mostly demon with recessive human traits that became apparent in his youth. His only revealing demon trait is a pair of brilliant, blue eyes with not apparent pupils. He also speaks with unique syntax, bordering on kitsch. Because of his human heritage, he was banished to the "Scum Pits of Ur". He entered every contest of skill and daring that he could in an attempt to die. Instead, he won every match, defeating Flame beasts, Drokken Beasts, and everything else he went up against. He once happened upon a herd of Bur Beasts and was forced to stand perfectly still for eleven days and nights. He earned a reputation for bravery and combat skill, and as such he wandered the countryside as an undefeated champion, or "Groosalugg".

A prophecy foretold that the Groosalugg would one day "com-shuck", or mate, with the entity that has "the curse," which turned out to be Cordelia Chase's visions. After the two had mated, Cordelia's visions would be passed on to him. Since Pylea was dominated by monks loyal to Wolfram & Hart, this would put the instrument of The Powers That Be under the control of the Senior Partners. Cordelia did not want this, at first because she believed the Groosalugg to be more demon-like, but this objection fell when Cordelia met him and saw that he was, in fact, very handsome and nearly human. However, Cordelia still did not want to consummate their relationship because she did not want to lose the visions. Groo ended up proving that he was a good man, not a tool of evil, and helped Cordelia and the rest of Angel Investigations to escape Pylea, albeit after being defeated by Angel in combat thanks to Angel transforming into his more feral Pylean self. Groo was installed as monarch of Pylea, the first to preside over the freedom of the human former slaves.

After Groo was deposed as ruler of Pylea, he had decided to join his Princess in Los Angeles, but was ambushed by a Dark Wizard and his group of henchmen. The Dark Wizard performed a spell that removed Groo's humanity, leaving only his demon side. He now has leathery, purple skin and a slight underbite where his fangs protrude. The Dark Wizard also changed Groo's memories and, instead of being a champion for good, left only memories of him sacking and plundering Pylea as a scourge. Also, he made Groo remember his given name, Traegon, so that no one would know it was him.
