[[AC: Characters in The Graystone Saga]]
!!Tobiah

The narrator. He's an old man now, looking back on the unbelievable adventure he experienced as a teenager.

* TheArcher: In training.
* AudienceSurrogate: At no time does Tobiah get a physical description.
* ConvenientlyAnOrphan
* ReplacementGoldfish: Apparently he's one of these to Lady Gray, although he has yet to understand just who it is he's replacing.
* ShipTease: With Selje.

!!Lady Gray

The ostensible heroine of the story, with a murky past and possibly an even darker future.

* ChurchMilitant: Of a sort, although it's not entirely clear exactly how - or why.
* ColorMotif: Unsurprisingly, her signature color is gray.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Much of it hasn't been brought to light yet, but it's pretty well understood that she's got one of these.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Despite her coloring, attire, and reputation, Lady Gray is actually a pretty nice person - but she's also an IronWoobie, so most people don't realize it. Most often she comes across as an EmotionlessGirl.
* DoomMagnet: Or at least she'd have you think so.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette
* GreenEyes: The only thing about her (including her wardrobe) which is not black, white, or gray.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: Despite the reason for her noble quest, Lady Gray is feared, if not downright loathed, by most of the population of the entire continent.
* NiceToTheWaiter: She is unfailingly polite to just about anyone, though she also has a tendency to get snarky if they don't return the politeness.
* OlderThanTheyLook: She looks to be about 28. Her exact age has not yet been revealed in the narrative, but there are hints that it's rather up there.
-->'''Father Matthias:''' I hope that by the time I'm your age, I'm a little wiser.
-->'''Lady Gray:''' By the time you're my age, your bones will have turned to dust.
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Very few people know that Lady Gray's real name is Liadan.
** MeaningfulName: In a combination of this and BilingualBonus, 'Liadan' is Irish Gaelic for "gray lady." That's right, her full name is technically [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Lady Gray Lady Gray]].

!! Sabastian

Lady Gray's constant companion is generally a grouch, but devoted to her.

* BodyguardingABadass: Lady Gray doesn't really need Sabastian to protect her, but he considers it his job anyway, not least because of a BodyguardCrush.
* BowAndSwordInAccord: Until he insists that Tobiah start using one of them, Sabastian carries both a longbow and a sword.
* DarkSkinnedBlond
* DeadpanSnarker: At times.
* EnigmaticMinion: Sabastian fits many aspects of this trope, except that he's not a villain... we think.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: Sabastian's not the most pleasant person you'll ever meet, but he's extremely fond of animals and takes very good care of his and Lady Gray's horses.
* GreenEyedMonster: The primary reason Sabastian is so unpleasant to Tobiah is because he's jealous of any possible rival for Lady Gray's affection.
* HopelessSuitor: He has shades of this trope, having been in love with Lady Gray for years and refusing to leave her despite her repeated insistence that they can't ever be together.
* IOweYouMyLife: He's been following Lady Gray ever since she saved his life some twenty years before the start of the story.
* TheQuietOne: He isn't much of a talker, even when Tobiah asks direct questions.
* TheSouthpaw: Tobiah notes that he wields his sword in his left hand.
