Saffron Grafton

Saffron Grafton, Lady of House Grafton. The youngest child of the Grafton household and the only girl. She was born in the height of harvest during 389 AC to Lord Robin Grafton and his wife in Gulltown where she was raised. As the only girl and the youngest child she was constantly doted on by her father and elder brothers. Raised to be a lady and now that she is an adult she wishes to do all she can.

Appearance and Character
A bright young lady full of the vitality of youth, her most notable feature being her strawberry kissed blond hair that falls to past her shoulders. She has healthy palor, warm amber brown eyes and a gently curved frame that favours her hips. Often seen with a book in her arms, very well spoken and naturally gifted in making people smile. She has an air of innocence about her being well protected by her family but her eyes always sparkle with an innate curiousity. Taken to asking questions with an unshakeable thrist for knowledge.

History
Doted on by her family young Saffron started out without a care in the world. Raised in the City of Gulltown she grew up with not one not two but three elder brothers much to her chagrin. Much the amusement and annoyances of her family she started being a rowdy child trying to get the attention she wanted. Always asking questions trying to explore and climb things much to the displeasure of the house septa. While the boys played with their swords and learned the workings of a forge she was forced to try to learn how to behave. It was only after discovering books and all the wonderful stuff inside them did she find something to be passionate about.

Age and a septa that would not quit reigned her in to a proper young lady over time. Though of course that didn't stop her mind, that was growing with each day. She would charm her way into any library or scribes office looking at anything she could get her hands on. Pestering any and all with her curiosities she devoured books like candies sweets and was constantly coming up with ideas. Growing as a person and learning that it is easier to get what you want with honey rather than vinegar.

The one who humoured her the most being her eldest brother Vardis, though Saffron had no taste for forging they shared a love of knowledge. Which forged between them a strong sibling bond. When he married she was none too pleased with the choice of wife, of course though the most she could do was occasionally hide one of her jewels. But when her brothers marriage issues seemed to fade, Saffron immediately began to embrace Lady Anya Grafton nee Arryn as an elder sister. Always having wanted one though she had been stuck with 3 elder brothers.

The death of their father was hard for her because she loved him very much as his little girl. But much like her brother her mood brightened with the birth of the new heir. Gushing over the baby, she dotes upon her nephew glad to no longer be the youngest of the house.And although most of her ways were gone she had no problem trying to give Vardis a few grey hairs when he became lord always off riding or reading on the most precarious of window ledges. Now a woman in the eyes of any law poor Vardis has another issue, his sister wants to leave home and explore. She has ambitions and ideas, wanting to crazily see even ride a dragon or sail to Dorne to read their books. And she is giving her brother the headache of demanding a husband outside the vale or she's hiding his smithing tools.
