They are sometimes associated with a grandfather. Combined, the two can join into one force, forming a megabeast of wrinkles, bickering and despair. This life-sucking force is not dissimilar to the Megazord seen on Power Rangers. Appropriate precautions should be taken when handling grandmothers; such as protective clothing to guard against their fire-breathing abilities (more common with mothers in law).

  • My Grandmother is in Incredible Shape. Every day since she was 60, she would walk 5 miles a day. She's 88 now, and we have no idea where she is.
  • Grandmother (also Grandma, Grandmama) of would-be Storm Kings. She rides herd on Houses Sturmvoraus and von Blitzengaard (not to mention the Storm King Conspiracy) and is also the superior of the whole order of the Smoke Knights, or at least Violetta's branch of that organization. As Violetta claims cousinhood with Tarvek Sturmvoraus, it may be inferred prior to proof that "Grandma" is the senior member of the cadet branch of Valois (or possibly Sturmvoraus), which would make her the likely Commander General as well.
  • Grandmother is the name of... something. Some believe 'her' to be God’s evil twin, others think 'she' is the remnant of a dead universe, and still others point to 'her' as Oblivion itself. What 'she' is exactly is never known, but what is known is that she is ancient and wants to consume every living soul on earth. Grandmother is the major driving force behind many of the events of Orpheus, particularly the last two books in the series. Her common name is derived from the term "the Grand Maw" which sounds close to the term "Grandma". Hence, she became known as Grandmother.
  • Grandmother first appears in The High King's Tomb and in Blackveil. She is the leader of a small band of Arcosians seeking to raise the Second Empire to its former power. She is regarded as a shaman and a spiritual leader to her people. Grandmother is most notable for her capacity to utilize powerful magic, often requiring sacrifice and blood. When using magic, Grandmother always uses yarns of varying colors as tools to focus and execute spells as well as a certain bowl to strengthen her magic.

  • Grandmother is the name of... something. Some believe 'her' to be God’s evil twin, others think 'she' is the remnant of a dead universe, and still others point to 'her' as Oblivion itself. What 'she' is exactly is never known, but what is known is that she is ancient and wants to consume every living soul on earth. Grandmother is the major driving force behind many of the events of Orpheus, particularly the last two books in the series. Her common name is derived from the term "the Grand Maw" which sounds close to the term "Grandma". Hence, she became known as Grandmother. She is also known as the Infinite Maw and the All-Devourer, and is the "mother" of the Malfeans. Like her offspring, she slept beneath the underworld until awakened by the Sixth Great Maelstrom. She revived with a great hunger, and her children now seek to stop her from consuming the world lest she consume them as well. She constantly chews through the ever-shrinking Labyrinth, seeking to consume the Tempest, the Shadowlands, and, eventually, the world of the living. She controls armies upon armies of Spectres, which she uses to fight the Malfeans. As she is also tied into the hive-mind, she keeps many of her darkest, most important secrets in Memory Towers. Ironically, Grandmother herself is significantly less malevolent than her minions; she honestly does not comprehend existences outside of herself have wills of their own and may resent being devoured. At her core, she is a creator rather than a destroyer; her motive, as revealed in End Game, is to remove the "psychoses" that are the rebel Spectres, and devour enough energy to make her own universe. Sadly, this would mean "everything on Earth."

  • Grandmother (also Grandma, Grandmama) of would-be Storm Kings. She rides herd on Houses Sturmvoraus and von Blitzengaard (not to mention the Storm King Conspiracy) and is also the superior of the whole order of the Smoke Knights, or at least Violetta's branch of that organization. As Violetta claims cousinhood with Tarvek Sturmvoraus, it may be inferred prior to proof that "Grandma" is the senior member of the cadet branch of Valois (or possibly Sturmvoraus), which would make her the likely Commander General as well. When her relatives speak of her, they invariably refer to her as just "Grandmother," usually in tones of fear and respect, while in Paris she is referred to as Highness by her servants and [ Princess] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] by Mister Obsidian. It finally takes the Master of Paris himself to [ reveal] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] that her first name is Terebithia. She apparently makes the major decisions for the house(s), or at least to make the ones that stick, especially now that post-Timeskip she is reported to have lost her [ husband] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] and has become/taken over the duties of The Council. Of course, there's the (increasingly unlikely) possibility it's a codename, like "Mother". Her ability to throw a party has also achieved her a degree of infamy; it was her [ party sleigh] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] that Agatha commandeered for her escape from The Refuge of Storms. And after hearing numerous passing mentions of her, the reader finally [ meets her] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] in person in Paris talking to Seffie on that very subject, as Agatha and Tweedle's arrival sends social (and potentially physical) shockwaves through the city. [ According] [[Chronology - Volume #|✣ ]] to Violetta at least, Grandmother hates Lucrezia, and has ordered all of her followers to break off contact with the latter woman and her forces. Smoke Knight cells still loyal to Lucrezia, like one led by Madwa Korel, have been burned from the cabal, and all other factions' smoke knights have standing orders from Grandmother to set aside rivalries and cross agendas to pursue the rogue cells for elimination should they be encountered.
