Origins:
 
Grundroth is a member of the Giants of Jotunheim. The Giants of Jotunheim, also known as the Etins, are enormous superhuman beings, most of whom dwell in the other dimensional realm of Jotunheim, one of the Nine Worlds of Asgardian cosmology. They are the traditional enemies of the gods of Asgard, with whom they have gone to war numerous times over the millennia. Jotunheim is a flat ring-shaped realm with high mountains along its inner edge. It is apparently on its own separate dimensional plane, distinct from Asgard's or Earth's. However, there are inter-dimensional portals between the mountains of Jotunheim and those of Asgard, permitting easy passage from one realm to the other.
