Back Story
Grace is a very confident, opinionated, inquisitive little girl who's full of energy. She spends every waking moment telling stories or asking questions. She must get her own way, all the time. She loves cartoons, dancing and the color pink. She's rarely seen without her Hello Kitty.
Family
Due to her mother’s poor health, and her father’s work taking him away from home for long periods of time - Grace was raised by relatives. She has little memory of her parents, who both died before her fifth birthday. Her older siblings, Daprima and Mez, were in foster care. Unlike them, she was a very happy and well loved child. She was encouraged to speak her mind and do as she wished, something she excels at.
When Daprima turned 18, she became legal guardian of her two younger siblings and brought them to live in home of the Lady with the Dog. Grace was actually the first one to arrive, as Daprima was looking for Mez. Because of this - Grace likes to think this is HER house.
Grace can be a handful, but Daprima’s always able to rein her in. Mez on the other hand, becomes exasperated by his precious little sister who seems to talk him to death.
The Genie
One day, when Grace was ‘helping’ Zyfan go through some boxes his parents had sent, she came upon a lamp. The lamp brought back unhappy memories for Zyfan so he gave it to her. She cleaned it and played with it for hours, but she couldn’t get the lid off. She asked Daprima and Mez for
help. They each tried and the lid wouldn’t budge. However, once it had been touched by all of them, smoke drifted from it and *Io manifested - to the surprise of them all. He explained that he was the genie of the first clan, meaning them. No one was happier about this than Grace. Daprima questioned Zyfan about the lamp. He knew nothing about it. So, the genie belonged to them.
Grace sees Io as her play mate. Daprima recently wished him free and he is now human. He got a job in the Elvin realm. Grace and Io are pen pals.
Fin
Fin and Grace have been spending nor time since he became engaged to er sister Daprima. Grace loves the dded attention and has already begun wrapping him round her little finger.
Syrrah
Grace considers Syrrah her best friend. When Syrrah first arrived in the home of the Lady with the Dog, Grace was the first to meet her. Later, Syrrah invited Grace to the Elvin nation for the birth of her daughter, Pica. The two have a special relationship.
* Io is no longer living in the home of the Lady with the Dog.
