Grendell (Dark Elf) (Earth-616)

History

Origin

Giant half-elven Grendell and his mother, "Big Mother" were members of Cain's Clan.^[2][1]

6th century

They once terrorized the marshlands surrounding Heorot Hall in Denmark in the 6th century AD. Prince Beowolf came to the aid of King Hrothgar, whose hall was raided each night by the hideous man-eating monster Grendel. Beowulf slayed Grendel. He then tried to kill Big Mother using a powerful sword (possibly Excalibur) that he had found in her hoard, and managed to imprison her in a floating underground prison.^[1]
