Grandee Griselda Teindht (a.k.a. The Grey Governess, Sage of Sapere)
Physical Description
Body Features
Griselda stands at around 5'7", a lithe build mixed with a bit of dancer's grace, and a skin condition that made her more susceptible to skin burns.
Apparel & Accessories
She prefers to wear full length dresses in grey overtones with gold trimming/accents and a white veil, although this partially obscure her sandy blonde shoulder-length wavy hair and mercury silver eyes.
She modified her favorite dress so she has her sword hidden at all times, the sheathe running along the back of her spine.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
The youngest child of Tiberius and Cereza Teindht, born in the year 920, Griselda was expected to stay out of the limelight and to not bother with anything outside of being a prospective match to a different noble House.
Thankfully, her chosen profession was an acceptable one for the House, as is her decision to be in a supportive role instead of being a contender for the next Head.
Her older brothers, Amado and Emilio, fought for the right to be the worthy successor after their father died peacefully in 944.
In 946, she received a missive that made her rush back home to her home town of Sapere...where she found out that her brothers dueled each other to the death, hence the mantle of Headship for House Teindht now fell onto her shoulders.
When Griselda took the reigns in Spring of 947, she unexpectedly found several deep secrets that she swore would not see the light of day, including the true blood-drenched history of her House.
Education
As a tutor for impressionable young nobles, she is well-versed in subjects such as History, Philosophy, Theology and Faith, Good Manners befitting ranks of Nobility, Music and the Arts, even the numerous styles of dueling.
Personality Characteristics
Likes & Dislikes
As a child, her thirst and zeal for knowledge knew no bounds, hence she immersed herself in books while keeping her views and stances open. When she completed her studies and started teaching, she emphasized honor and integrity especially in the art of dueling.
Contrary to her fellow Grandees, she prefers to 'duel' with words first (aka debates and discourse; where she Trusts, but Verifies first) and considers dueling to be a last resort, especially if it ends with a duel to the death.
Social
Mannerisms
Griselda usually speaks in a more formal way when addressing the Council, only lowering her guard to those she considers her allies.
One such ally is Grandee Dantes Svedestes, whom she owed a great debt after he saved her life from a duel gone horribly wrong.
