Grievous (AU)

"I look forward to adding your lightsabers to my collection. I could use a short green blade and a purple blade."

- Grievous to Yoda and Mace Windu

Grievous, born as Qymaen jai Sheelal, was the Kaleesh warlord and Supreme Commander of the droid armies of the Confederacy of Independent Systems.

Clone Wars
During the Battle of Geonosis, Grievous had made himself present to the Jedi by slaying all those who followed him into the catacombs. Of the four Jedi who pursued him, only Ki-Adi-Mundi managed to survive. He would encounter Grievous again on Hypori. In 19 BBY Grievous swept into the capital planet of the Republic, Coruscant, and kidnapped Supreme Chancellor Valorum. However as Grievous was leaving orbit, the Jedi Masters Yoda and Mace Windu pursued Grievous. They, along with Windu's astromech droid R4-P17, secured the chancellor and killed Grievous' lightsaber instructor and ex-Jedi Dooku. Grievous and numerous Neimoidians fleed the ship and headed for Utapau. Darth Sidious instructed Grievous to secure the planet then head for Mustafar to help him and the Separatist Leaders. However, Grievous was ambushed by Mace Windu and Kit Fisto. Grievous pulled out all four of his lightsabers and dueled the Jedi Masters. However, he was disarmed and fled to his wheel bike. Mace and Kit pursued him on giant lizards. Grievous was cornered at his own landing platform. Fisto used the force to open the general's gut sacks leaving him an open target. Windu then avoided Grievous' weak blows and stabbed the Jedi Killer in the heart. The cyborg's armor short circuited. Sidious learned of the failure on Utapau and kept Grievous' Magnaguards as his personal guards.
