'''Grapu''' is the [[Green Lattice]]'s mascot. He was first built in [[r/place 2017|Place 2017]], and was destroyed twice. Unfortunately, he didn't make it onto the final canvas. Since 2017, the members of the Green Lattice have grown to love him, and many were excited to bring him back. He was rebuilt and protected on the [[r/place 2022|2022 canvas]]. | |||

Origin
Creation
The creator of Grapu initially attempted to build him in the Blue Corner's territory, but were turned away. They looked elsewhere and decided to submit a request to build him somewhere in the Green Lattice's territory. Since they knew it would be difficult fighting against the hivemind, they also asked the members of the lattice for their assistance building Grapu.
After some back and forth, the Green Lattice accepted the request. They started plans to build Grapu around (888, 404), near the southern boundaries of the Green Lattice. The small group working on it had trouble dealing with the hivemind of random users that maintained the Green Lattice's territory. Because they were unaware of the plans to build Grapu, assumed that the purple and grey pixels were attempts at vandalizing the lattice, and covered them up. The creator of Grapu soon realized that finishing Grapu would require a coordinated effort, and they rallied the Discord server together to build him. That group effort unified the members of the Green Lattice and their allies, and Grapu became a beloved symbol of the lattice.
