Hagrid's 16-foot giant half-brother. Hagrid found him while on his mission to make contact with the giants over the summer and brought him back to Hogwarts to live in the Forbidden Forest, as Grawp is small for a giant and was therefore at risk of violence from the other giants. Though Hagrid tries to teach Grawp English, Grawp seems uninterested and wants to go home. He is, however, upset when Umbridge fires Hagrid and seems to have a connection with Hermione.
