Her complexion is fair with a smattering of freckles upon the apples of her cheeks. Two jewels of pale sapphire adorn her sculpted face, framed delicately by her oak brown locks. She is considered beautiful and takes great care in her appearance. [color=0072bc][b]Biography[/b][/color] At a young age, Grace showed an aptitude for numbers, a valuable asset when you're known for selling the finest wines in the Seven Kingdoms. She could follow the most difficult calculations and oft times, could out smart merchants. Lord Unwin claims that she interjected in a marketplace and swindled a crooked merchant into giving him a great deal. He always swore "No one could say no to those big blue eyes" when he told her the story. However, do not let her appearance fool you. Grace, while ever so "Grace"-ful in her appearance and public image, is quite the spitfire. At the ripe of age of 11, she was picked from House Redwyne to serve as companion and fellow student alongside daughter Syrenna Peake, supposedly for the purpose of tutoring her in mathematics. As a ward to House Peake, she studied alongside the children, their competitive nature infectious. Always working to improve herself and stay ahead of the curve, Grace could oft be found in the nearest library. Her speech, as such, is quite eloquent and her vocabulary extensive. In fact, she can typically insult a person in such a pleasant tone - they'd be none the wiser. Only those of equal intelligence can decipher her words and, even then, they seem to be more amused than offended. After all, growing up with three boys and only one girl to interact with does help you build a tough skin. This has also left her unmarried, as most of her suitors have not found this a valuable trait. She has also convinced her father that whilst she is still a ward of House Peake, a topic she must now address with the late Lord Unwin's oldest son Raynalt, she cannot to be wed. Nine years she has grown, a ward and loyal member of House Peake, enduring the pleasant and unpleasant as time has passed alongside them. She takes her duty very seriously and considers House Peake an extension of her own family. She has never been proficient in any type of combat training but, swears she will take up the sword if she has to in order to protect those closest to her. Willing to lay down her life, if need be.[/center]
