## **Personality**

Grayson is a nervous young man with a well intentioned heart. He's shown to have more courage that he doesn't realize he possesses, coming to his friends. Grayson has this drive to be helpful. He has a strong moral compass and doesn't want to see people taken advantage of or hurt, but is cautious of this new world he has found himself in.

His anxiety often gets the better of him where he apologizes profusely. That said, he's not above some rule breaking. Obviously there's the time he hacked the major's re-election speech, but he has also mentioned he skips PE class, uses his VR goggles to zone out during boring classes, and using aim-bot on his FPS games.

## **Trivia**

Grayson's goggles are modeled after the goggles used by the protagonist of Digimon Cyber Sleuths: Hackers Memory. StormSage wanted them added to his character because he thought they were cool.

Storm has jokingly mentioned that much of Grayson is based on his twin brother and fellow player, RedBeastVFX. Primarily his sleep schedule and his proficiency with technology.

Grayson's name is based off two different Red Rangers from the Power Rangers franchise. Carter Grayson from Lightspeed Rescue & Connor McKnight from Dino Thunder. Additionally, StormSage sited Dick Grayson, as an influence for the name.

Grayson was the first player in the cast to get a double explosion, resulting in his roll being above a 40

Originally, Grayson's name was going to be Rhys, but with Reiner & Riot already having names that started with R, things quickly got tricky in early discussions, so Storm elected to change it.

Grayson's mother communicating through notes is a reference to Ed, Edd, n' Eddy. StormSage thought it would make for a funny character thing, but didn't realize how neglectful it was until saying it out loud in session.
