PERSONALITY: Grayson is pretty much a recluse with a love for knowledge. Whether it be receiving it or doling it out in droves. After several years of wandering the wastelands, she is most content when she’s at home, enjoying a good book and a bottle of something sweet. She’s reserved and calm but inquisitive in nature. She has a thirst to explore and gain more knowledge that simply needs to be quenched.
Her determination shows in everything that she does, no matter how menial the task. Very self-motivated, she doesn’t wait for people to say yes or no to her. She doesn’t open up to people too easily but once she is comfortable, her heart is worn on her sleeve. Grayson has time and again shown great maturity despite her young age but there is a youthful exuberance to her that is uncanny especially considering her childhood.
Grayson is nurturing and caring, always looking for something to take care of. Despite how she had survived, she still sees the good in people and always looks on the bright side of things if she can help it.
SECRET(S): -WE ALL HAVE A STORY...
what's yours?
WORTHY MENTIONS: Richard Monroe - Husband
Tyler Malone - Adopted Father
Hayden Monroe - Sister in Law
Isaac Monroe - Brother in Law
Kadence Monroe - Niece
HISTORY: Born to a teen mother who abandoned her in a cardboard box with a flannel T-shirt and a blanket covering her still bloodied body, the unnamed baby went through ten years of her life being picked up by strangers who either abandoned her straight away or looked after her long enough to keep her from being captured by the infected, rabid animals or the harsh weather. On more than one occasion, the blue eyed dark haired girl was found rummaging through piles of scrap thrown out by food establishments and on even more occasions was seen lying by the side of the road, seemingly lifeless. Somehow, she persevered through her own miraculous strength or by kind hearted souls looking after strays.
Bruised and battered, sometimes she was picked up by people who do more harm than good to the emaciated, still unnamed girl until Tyler Malone took her into his home. He had just lost his wife when he met the little girl and took her on, at first, as a project to get his mind off his loss. As the months wore on, the almost feral girl wormed her way into his heart and he couldn't help himself. He became her father. He cleaned her, fed her, taught her how to become more of a human being and by the time she hit her sixteenth summer, Grayson Malone was introduced to the world as Tyler’s daughter.
Through him, Grayson found a love of reading. It took him years to stop her from tearing his precious books apart but mere months to teach her how to love it. Her voracious appetite for knowledge almost surpassed his. Stunted though her physical growth was, her mind became a canvas for Tyler to paint on.
By her nineteenth year, Grayson set out into the world alone, though Tyler was, unbeknownst to her, never far behind. There was a determination in Grayson to conduct herself as well as everybody else around her that it did come off as somewhat rigid and awkward. But enough exposure to it did make it a lot easier on the young woman that over the years, she even grew to frequent places and stalls with people who didn't mind her awkwardness, and even found it rather charming and endearing.
It was at one of the stalls she frequented that she met the man she would eventually marry. Richard Monroe was security for the Ceres farmer Grayson usually brought her groceries from and from their first meeting, Grayson felt a connection with the rugged young man. She grew to hope that he always came with the caravan whenever it was time for her to stock up on groceries for her and her father. And he did. Weeks turned to days and before she knew it, she was saying goodbye to Tyler, promising that she will visit him, to live with her husband and his twin brother’s family.
With Hayden and Kadence, Grayson grew maternal, something that she hadn’t banked on when she was first picked up by the archivist she still affectionately calls father. She managed to turn her love for knowledge into being one of the teachers for the Ceres community, something she held with pride, though she was paid little for. Though it has been two years since they have been married, she is still now adjusting to life being a wife, a sister, and an aunt to three absolutely wonderful people.
For someone who had her upbringing, it was more than she could hope for.BEHIND THE MASK...
