History: Grayle remembers little of her childhood. She has vague memories of a beautiful blonde mother who gave her away at the age of five to a travelling warlock for a hefty sum of gold, in order to live a life of splendor and decadence. The warlock brought Grayle with him as an apprentice. They travelled the far east where she saw and learned of wonders and terrors seldom, if ever, witnessed. Grayle grew up under his care. Though the warlock was never hard on her, there was little love or sympathy from him. He taught her the arts he himself had been taught during his many years of travel: blood magic, shadowbinding, and worse. When she was twelve years of age, he finally brought her to a final place of learning: Asshai-by-the-Shadow, where she remained for fourteen years and studied. For unspecified reasons she has now come to the Valyrian Freehold.
