Grogar's rule was an ancient, yet unforgettable one. Grogar rose to power in Equestria's earliest days, when it was just a collection of farms and pastorspastures, he ruled with an iron fist, conquering other lands as the [[Emperor]] of [[Equestria]] and giving birth to the horrors that still blight the lands to the current eras as the "Father of Monsters". Grogar's reign left a strong impression on the villains {{FIM|Tirek}}, [[{{FIM|Queen Chrysalis]]}} and [[King Sombra]], who have, to varying extents, revered him ever since.

Eventually however, Grogar was defeated and banished by [[Gusty the Great]], who took away his bell and his magic with it. Legends of his deeds became diluted until he was held to be a figure of children's tales-such as ''[[Gusty the Great (book)|Gusty the Great]]''-or utterly forgotten, as seen in the case of [[Cozy Glow]]. {{FIM|Discord}} later [[Grogar (Discord)|impersonated Grogar]] in an attempt to bolster {{FIM|Twilight Sparkle}}'s confidence in her ability to rule over all of Equestria. This backfired when the [[Legion of Doom]], having recovered the bell, gained the use of the true Grogar's magic for themselves.

The [[Grogar (My Little Pony)|first version]] of Grogar was the main villain of the G1 ''[[My Little Pony (cartoon)|My Little Pony]]'' episode arc, "[[The Return of Tambleon]]", where he was the ruler of the [[Realm of Darkness]] and attempted to take over all of [[Ponyland]]. Grogar's counterpart in ''[[My Little Pony: Nightmare Knights]]'' shares the design of this version, as the ''Friendship is Magic'' version of Grogar had not yet been revealed.
