Around the year 3024, Grig Griez was a crimelord within the Draconis Combine. Alledgedly operating from an uncharted periphery world beyond Land's End, he acted as a middle-man for Matabushi Incorporated during their Operation Inroad and worked with the notorious smuggler Kangaroo Jack. He was also well informed about the Dark Wing, and able to identify their crest to Gideon Braver. Subsequently, he employed Gideon Braver as a courier to "Brown", one of his agents on Dustball. Brown had orders to kill Gideon Braver but the delivery turned out to be a poisonous agent to kill Brown in turn. Upon realizing this, Brown tipped Gideon Braver off to Kangaroo Jack's JumpShip, the "Stone Arrow", instead of killing him.

The Kurita Ministry of Peaceful Order and Honor on Galedon V levied a bounty of 200,000 C-Bills against Grig Griez in 3024 for his numerous crimes of murder, rapine, destruction of personal property, arson, grand theft, assault of Draconis government officials, counterfeiting, forgery, piracy, and others.

Griez was described as a bloated man with merciless black eyes and a thick and sinister voice. He maintained a secret underground base outside a major city on a Draconis Combine world; the scenery there was reminiscent of an ancient Arabian Nights holovid.
