Delia Grayson (MLU)

Damien Grayson- Brother-In-Law

### Cause of Death

Stabbed and shot multiple times by Damien Grayson  *(Alive)* Swiftly shot in the head by Alwyn Grayson  *(Undead)*

### Status

Deceased

**Delia Grayson** *(Formerly **Shaw**)* was a minor character in "*MLU*".

She is the maternal aunt of former mafia heir Alwyn Grayson, as well as his parental guardian after the disappearance of his mother and the madness that corrupted his father, having taken care of the young vigilante ever since his birth.

Delia's genuine concern for the future of the mafia, as well as her general disapproval of her brother-in-law's harsh methods, has turned her into a victim of his nefarious schemes. He uses the woman as an example why people should not mess around with him and takes the chance to punish her for taking his son away from him, even though everyone knows that he is the one to blame for that.

Delia served as a minor, but pivotal character in Alwyn's origin story.

## Personality

Delia is a genuinely caring and good person. She sees the world in a positive way and believes that everyone deserves a second chance, something that made her a liability in the eyes of her brother-in-law and, by extension, several men loyal to him.

Unlike the bloodthirsty Damien, Delia prefers to deal with the world's problems in more peaceful ways. This has elevated her status in the eyes of the people who are lucky enough to know her, and her attitude inspires her nephew to learn the concept of peace and forgiveness, despite the nature of his Element.

Delia is not the type of person to shy away from a confrontation or hide her true feelings. No, sir. When she notices that someone is going astray, she is not afraid of puring her own heart out and attempts to convince them to renounce their evil ways. However, this makes her vulnerable against people who genuinely wish to inflict harm and she often gets in trouble for it.

In other words, Delia is a wonderful woman, but her own feelings can act as a double-edged sword, often hurting *her* in the process.

## Death

### Killed By

* Nico *(Caused, Alive)*
* Quinn Kaos *(Indirectly Caused, Alive)*

In the heroes' absence, Nico and his gang sneak into the city of Silverdale, knocking out most of the guards in the process. With the support of Damien Grayson- their newest ally- they break into the Kaos residence and attack Aurelia and Delia.

After hearing them enter, Quinn- who happened to be near the entrance at the time- hides behind a corner in a very cowardly way, failing to assist them in repelling the intruders, indirectly causing Delia's demise in the process.

* Damien Grayson *(Alive)*

Even though he is unable to murder Aurelia, Damien soon sets his sights on his own sister. After a brief scuffle, he uses his considerable powers to temporarily paralyze her, leaving her helpless as he walks behind her.

After talking to the motionless woman for a while, Damien brandishes a long, curved dagger. Along with the gun in his hand, he uses it to stab and shoot Delia in the back multiple times, watching coldly as she falls to the ground, minutes before Will and his allies arrive.

Delia lives long enough to witness the return of her nephew, but she is unable to tell him who did this horrible deed. She soon expires peacefully in Alwyn's arms, knowing that her nephew will make everything right once again.

* Geralt Kaos *(Caused, Undead)*
* William Kaos *(Indirectly Caused, Undead)*

Shortly after she reanimates, Geralt tackles her and takes her outside, chaining her so she does not hurt anyone else. This sudden act of bravery saves the rest of her loved ones from a grisly fate, allowing them to put her down in the process.

At the same time, Will comforts the terrified, grieving Alwyn, attempting to convince the young man that the best course of action is to put his undead aunt down while he still has the chance to do so. Ultimately, he succeeds and watches as he aims his gun at Delia.

* Alwyn Grayson *(Undead)*

After a lot of hesitating and convincing, Alwyn finally makes the decision that his undead aunt should be put to rest. Not wanting her to suffer any longer, he raises his gun and fires a single bullet into her skull, putting her down for good.

## Trivia

* Delia's name is of Latin origin. It is the short form of the name Cordelia, meaning "*heart*" and "*jewel of the sea*", the latter also serving as a nod to her Element.
* Although Delia's true surname is not Grayson, she adopted the surname of her brother-in-law, out of love and respect for her nephew.
