History
A bizarre bazaar
Grumm owns and operates a bazaar in Klugetown. In spite of its exclusivity, the bazaar is likewise incredibly influential. Grumm was often times very busy, and spent mot of his time in his offices. Grumm was a very serious lizardfolk, and often carried a tired demeanor. He was incredibly stern but had a sense of fairness to him. Uncharacteristically for a man in his profession, Grumm was a largely lawful individual, as he enforced strict laws throughout Klugetown.[1] He was not exactly a moral man however, as he didn't have any visible qualms about abusing the young Capper and Chummer or when he had to impose Verko's law.[2]
Ruler of puppet?
Although referred to as the closest thing to a leader Klugetown has,[1] Grumm seems to play second fiddle, or even works as a grunt for Verko, who seems to be the true "leader" of Klugetown.[2] As Tails of Equestria: The Official Movie Sourcebook reported his status as a leader after the fall of the Storm King, it's possible that he somehow rose to power after the fall of Verko.
Further adventures
In the Post-Storm King world, Grumm continues his work in Klugetown as the aloof businesslizard. With the arrival of more ponies and cats than ever, Klugetown is at an all time height of activity, and of lawfulness, thus making Grumm's ironfisted behavior all the more effective.[1]
Behind the scenes
Grumm first appeared as a largely undistinguished Lizardfolk during My Little Pony: The Movie and would later play an extremely minor role in the My Little Pony The Movie Prequel anthology as a member of Verko's goons. Much of his history and personality was defined in Tails of Equestria: The Official Movie Sourcebook, which detailed his profession and behavior.
