10th Hunger Games[]
Griffin specialized in using an axe and a machete, killing a handful of tributes. Sometime during the Games, he had an arrow to the eye by the District 1 Female, however, instead of dying, he ripped out the arrow, still in his eye, and stabbed the girl with it until she died. This crowned him the victor that year and he was very famous because of this. He was later nicknamed, "The Beast," afterward for his brutal manner, as said before. Also, his odds of winning were 5-1.
26th Games[]
During this time, he is mentioned by Magnus briefly on how he won his respective Games.
66th Games[]
This year, he mentors Bishop Hadley. He is mentioned and seen by Jackson during the tribute parade. He mentors with Abigail Jackson.
Mockingjay[]
In one of the film places they used to shoot the first film, there were many pillars showing the names of each victor that won a Hunger Games. As expected, his name showed up on one of the pillars there, along with the other victors from his district.
Death[]
Griffin would later die 40 years after he won his Games due to natural causes.
Trivia[]
- The name Griffin in English means: a fierce or a dangerous person. This would make sense since he was a career after all from District 2.
