Mya Grandison

## Appearance

Mya has thick and curly black hair that she often wears loose around her shoulders like a lion's mane. Being that she has so much hair it is hard for her to style it, so when it is not down she often wears a series of braids tied together in the back. Her eyes are vibrantly blue under long black lashes and her skin is soft and pale without blemish. Mya stands at about 5'4" and has delicate curves. One might describe her as soft.

## History

Mya was born to Lord Lyonel Grandison and Lady Gayle Grandison nee. Wagstaff, the youngest of their four legitimate children. She was argueably the prettiest baby Maester Allard delivered to lady Gayle. From the very beginning Mya was a romantic sort of girl who showed great promises as a lady. She paid very close attention to her lessons and proved to be quite skilled in courtly matters. Mya was known for being quite the seamstress, for at the age of seven she began embroidering all her dresses. Later she would take to sewing them all herself, creating elaborate garments that often featured grand lions and various beads.

Grandiview leant itself to grand views in its stoney mountain seat. Mya fancied herself a lioness and a princess of the scarce woods. As a child she could often be found playing outside in one of her pretty dresses with her hair done up in a nest of curls and a crown of wildflowers. Mya would rescue the animals she could find often times bringing home wild animals. She was particularly found of raising injured birds and kids (goats) within the halls of Grandiview. Mya was not to be found without a posse of wild animals at her beck and call. The household hounds were also found of her. Her parents knew her to be an animal tamer from an early age and in hopes of curbing her desire to bring home wild animals, gifted her with a puppy from one of their prized hounds. Mya named her hound Roan for his red fur and taught him to follow scents and obey commands as a house dog would. He grew into a rather large lapdog that adored his mistress.

Mya's grand dreams never left her, for she always dreamed of herself living the life of a song. She believed that all knights were good and grand, only having only her older brother and a few household knights for example -- all of which seemed to hold themselves in high regard. When Mya turned 13 her older sister, Marielle, was betrothed to Robard Cole. Shortly after the betrothal arrangement were made for Mya to serve Lady Myranda Baratheon as her lady in waiting. This was a huge honor for the youngest Grandison. A year after the arrangements were made, Mya made the journey to Storm's end and entered the service of the Baratheons.

Mya quickly learned that Myranda was not a lady to trifle with. The lady Baratheon was strict, but loving and intelligent. She put it upon herself to make sure that the young Grandison learned more than the stories told. Under her tutalege, Mya began to grow into a curious young girl. Despite the growth in her education, Mya remained somewhat of a gullible girl who believed the best of others.
