I love the detail that when Marcus visits Grayson's grave, he can't bring himself to metaphorically look her in the eye, knowing that it was his fault that she was killed. He doesn't look up at the statue until his daughter asks him who the statue is for.
@@Nighlocktheawesome00 fr, the scene in one of the first 3 episodes of arcane, you can tell Marcus did a deal with silico but felt very guilty as soon as he saw Grayson’s death
She has one of the best voices in the business. It HAS to be up there with the legendary likes of Kevin Michael Richardson, Tony Todd, Keith David, and Fred Tatasciore.
@h6hfelie Fr you close your eyes and definitely hear a woman speaking, while some higher pitched voices can be more unisex than hers. Interesting isn’t it?
Grayson is pretty much a side character but she fits with the world-building and other characters SO well that her presence is organic and solid. A whole 5 minutes of presence and I felt gut-punched she died. The writing for this show... Man I'm due for a rewatch.
She’s soo interesting like its soo easy to see her as just another enforcer who’s oppressing the Undercity but she genuinely wants better for it, and is just doing her job. She’s conflicted doing alot the things she does but genuinely thinks it could make things better
Exactly my thoughts and I like to think that with Grayson’s presence, Caitlyn aimed to become like Grayson by her own will and not her parents pressuring her.
blast from the archive is seeing how caitlyn investigated it! > basically in LOL there was an event where you could see things from during timeskip one being graysons death file and caitlyn reaching it
I was so upset she wasn't the VA for Renata Glasc. Like, it fits PERFECTLY. Imagine Renata having this voice instead. Oh my god, I seriously would've played her JUST for the voice acting.
@maxencejaunarena9773 He was too zealous and reckless. He acts like a rookie. Given the short timeskip between the opening scene and our first look at Piltover, I imagine he might've joined the enforcers in the aftermath of the last rebellion. Maybe he lost someone close to him during the conflict, because obviously the violence wouldn't have ended after the Zaunites were thrown back at the bridge.
So I knew Grayson was familiar and it wasn't until I was rewatching some episodes of House and she was an artist that tried to set herself on fire. Her voice is so distinct, I love it
Almost forgot about that episode, there was also an episode with Dominic Purcell (Mick Rory/Heatwave in Arrowverse) who was a patient's husband. Some great actors had almost throwaway or one-off episodes that make you forget they were there and see the actor somewhere else and then go; "I've seen them before"
I wish she survived I feel like more could of been done with here character but alas… I suppose it wasn’t meant to be. She’ll always be one of my fav characters.
Was expecting her to become like a Lin Beifong-esque character, but alas. So disappointing that she got axed, Shohreh Aghdashloo's voice is just golden and I need more of it! (Also, getting big Baby Gay and Older Mentor Lesbian vibes between her and Cait. Wish that could be explored some more.)
I’m really sad that she died, but also in a weird way I’m happy? The show really wasn’t pulling any punches, and it’s amazing how they made us like these side characters so quickly and give them proper personalities in so little episodes. I’m looking forward to season 2
Shohrehs voice always gives me shivers whenever I hear it! It's so distinct I knew who was playing Grayson the moment I heard it lol. Such a great actress and voice actress love her.❤
Love the detail of how she was played, compared to Undersecretary Chrisjen Avasarala both women were in positions of power and knew how to manipulate tose around them (to different degrees) and didn't mind speaking their mind to let those know what they thought. She and Vander were the best outside of Vi & Caitlyn because they knew who and what they were fighting for, Grayson and Caitlyn were kind and kne not to push because they didn't want to force an issue that could ruin everything while Vander and Violet both sought to act tough while also knowing there were innocents on the sidelines that they didn't want to risk and it's nice to see the parallels with the girls and their mentors because it showed how they were subtly influenced and acted to effectively mirror their mindset. The line with Grayson telling Caitlyn; "knowing how to handle it (the rifle) means knowing how to protect people" and you can see this every time Caitlyn uses it as she's very careful to hit her mark instead of letting someone else get caught in the crossfire
Both are the spitting image of their teachers, and now they stand united :') Which is what their mentors wanted in the first place. Sadly, they wouldn't be able to see them and their growth..
I feel really bad for caitlyn. Chief of the enforcers Grayson was the ONLY person who treated catilyn for who she is as another human being. Her whole life, she grew up with people doubting her abilities and forced her to be couped up beside or near her families because they're people of power. In a way, grayson is caitlyn's parental figure. Its really sad we lost her so soon.
Grayson was there for her to push her in the right direction, though sadly she was gone before Cait could show her true potential. I feel like Cait would have been like every other Piltie had it not been for Grayson's guidance.
I love Grayson, but I get why she “had” to die at some point (tho not so early) she symbolised the potential that basically all the most powerful characters COULD have, but CHOSE not to spend. She was the compromise, the diplomacy and the “one” person with authority who showed humanity to PEOPLE regardless of their origins. She fought to prevent a war between nations to achieve peace, while all the other political figures fought to prepare for a war to achieve victory for themselves and their cause. Unlike most characters Grayson thought about the consequences of the pawns and not about the benefits of the players, a path which she, like, Marcus and any other corruptible person could’ve chosen for her own benefit BUT didn’t because she is genuinely a caring person. All that symbolism led to her death, because once the audience saw all her motivations and actions beforehand, we automatically knew that this meant the war WAS starting despite some “heroic” wishes. She was basically the lamb that was offered to slaughter and with her gone the force that kept apart Zaun from Piltover no longer held the nations back from each other. (I love analysing characters, okay?!)
IMO, Vi is going to be the next Grayson in season 2 and beyond. An enforcer with connections in Zaun. Hopefully with lots of connections that comes with some genuine respect; essentially making herself feel at home again despite the gangs and shimmer.
Yeah. Actually, both Marcus and her were extremely cool characters, they had an interesting dynamic. I think they were underutilized by the show, she was neat.
@@helly3368 I don’t really like Marcus, yea Grayson also did a deal with a person from the undercity such as vandor but Marcus was truly corrupted cuz he did deals with silco
@@diamondguy-xs4lg Grayson was perfect, af. In fact very few characters on this show are really good in terms of morality. I personally like the hell out of Marcus but I felt his death was...too quick.
I love Grayson’s voice. Such a shame she died, she was one of the good ones
She was too good for the world of Arcane. :(
Ikr I was so sad
for real, as soon as grayson died you knew that there was no hope for anyone😭😭😭
She is shohreh aghdashloo❤
@@heeeroy I got Mass Effect flashbacks when I heard her voice again.
I love the detail that when Marcus visits Grayson's grave, he can't bring himself to metaphorically look her in the eye, knowing that it was his fault that she was killed. He doesn't look up at the statue until his daughter asks him who the statue is for.
The guilt haunted him till death.
@@Nighlocktheawesome00 fr, the scene in one of the first 3 episodes of arcane, you can tell Marcus did a deal with silico but felt very guilty as soon as he saw Grayson’s death
Shohreh Aghdashloo has a deeper voice than most blokes I know, and I love it.
She's got the perfect asmr voice, one could fall asleep to her voice. One is me.
She has one of the best voices in the business. It HAS to be up there with the legendary likes of Kevin Michael Richardson, Tony Todd, Keith David, and Fred Tatasciore.
And yet it's still unmistakably feminine.
@h6hfelie Fr you close your eyes and definitely hear a woman speaking, while some higher pitched voices can be more unisex than hers. Interesting isn’t it?
yesssssssss❤❤

The cut from graysons dead body to little caitlyn smiling pointing a gun is diabolical
I didn’t mean to TxT
Grayson vs the council is such a good scene and makes Grayson such a great character.
Standing up for what is better for both parties! We wished that Marcus saw what she did in the people of the Undercity. :(
She’s soo interesting like its soo easy to see her as just another enforcer who’s oppressing the Undercity but she genuinely wants better for it, and is just doing her job. She’s conflicted doing alot the things she does but genuinely thinks it could make things better
The things she could have done, all taken away from her. :(
FINALLY A COMPILATION OF THIS WONDERFUL CHARACTER 😭 THANK YOU
thank you :(
the way Arcane writes their side characters is just so 👌👌👌. i felt so sad when she died. i wish we could've seen how Caitlyn reacted to her death.
Exactly my thoughts and I like to think that with Grayson’s presence, Caitlyn aimed to become like Grayson by her own will and not her parents pressuring her.

❎Playing
✅ Squealing
Oh shit you're right. She would have been perfect for Renata Glasc.
She could still be.
I love her voice so much
It's giving ✨ASMR✨
I LOVE SMOKING AND CANCER!
@@NusBH Shohreh Aghdashloo isn't a smoker, she just happens to sound that way u weirdo
@@praxyi5926 chill out big guy, that was clearly a joke
@@NusBH she doesn’t smoke actually.
That flashback with caitlyn was just so heartbreaking to watch
I kinda wish Grayson lived. but I get why she died
She was too good for the world of Arcane ):
@@pandes9635 she cared for Zaun and tried to slowly change things but Marcus was too greedy
@maxencejaunarena9773 He was too zealous and reckless. He acts like a rookie.

FINALLY SCENES OF GRAYSON😭😭😭 It's been so long. Love her very much. THANK YOU
She’s the best🥹❤️🔥
Grayson was a badass for the limited screentime she had. She had presence.
Truly an unforgettable woman 🙌🏻
I love how she didn’t want to pin it all on Vander, like Jayce later says to Silco, “You can’t make a deal with a snake then cut off its head”
I guess Vander's more of a lion but anyway
She knew the stakes, and that's the reason why she fell to her demise :(
I love her so much...
Don’t we all? 😩
I love her voice its so wise and elegant but also strong.
So I knew Grayson was familiar and it wasn't until I was rewatching some episodes of House and she was an artist that tried to set herself on fire. Her voice is so distinct, I love it
Her raspy voice definitely stands out!

Some great actors had almost throwaway or one-off episodes that make you forget they were there and see the actor somewhere else and then go; "I've seen them before"
For those who stumbles upon this comment, Grayson's VA is also the VA for Roshan in Assassin's Creed Mirage
From the moment I saw the trailer - I KNEW! Cool fact, thanks for sharing!
I wish she survived I feel like more could of been done with here character but alas… I suppose it wasn’t meant to be. She’ll always be one of my fav characters.
"What could have been."
Was expecting her to become like a Lin Beifong-esque character, but alas. So disappointing that she got axed, Shohreh Aghdashloo's voice is just golden and I need more of it!

god her voice is godly
God, she's so cool. I looooove her voice.

Just a few months to go! Season 2, here we come!
I have to admit. It's a hot voice
We do love a deep, raspy, frenchy voice from a hot momma who would wreck me in bed ❤❤❤
Undeniable!
Shohrehs voice always gives me shivers whenever I hear it! It's so distinct I knew who was playing Grayson the moment I heard it lol. Such a great actress and voice actress love her.❤
I agree! Her voice is so unique too so whenever I hear her voice somewhere, I'd shout "THAT'S SHOHREH! GRAYSON!"
Man she has such a recognizable voice
Vander and Grayson were the only one's keeping the peace between Piltover and Zaun. Without them, the people are going to run out of control.
And thus, ZAUN was formed - all because of the perpetrator, Silco
Grayson's voice reminds me of the voice in the Assassins creed Mirage trailer. Very unique voice.
edit (30 seconds ago) : Holy crap it is .
I love that the first time I heard Grayson speak I knew instantly recognise Shohreh she just have a unique and iconic voige
I'm a big simp for this woman, and I'm proud of it, and I'll continue to be a big simp for this woman. You guys can cry about that.
Aging and Dying Queen Lioness, Assassin Mentor, Enforcer, the list goes on
The ultimate package she was
@@pandes9635No doubt
I’m so confused. I though Greyson was bad cause she was working with Silco but I think I confused her with another character.
yep, Marcus was working with Silco, she was working with Vander
@@monochromeink. oooohhh omg thanks 🙏🙏🙏, smh I did confused them then 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️
Sevika?
maybe sevika!! They’re quite similar appearance wise

Everyone (including me) was so upset when Grayson died but if she and Vander hadn’t, the majority of the show wouldn’t have happened 😔
The domino effect, though we wish they could have all lived happily as they were in the beginning.. :(
I love this voice special woman very perfectly voice 0:22 😊
Shohreh’s voice is exquisite
@@pandes9635 Shohreh is a very special woman, and I am proud to have a fellow countrywoman like this Iranian artist.

Y'know how much of the arcane plot would've been missed if Vander said 'Silco' as a name-
Based on the flashbacks, not much.. but imagine~
Thank you for doing this.
My pleasure, after all, Grayson deserves everything
I love Grayson, but I get why she “had” to die at some point (tho not so early) she symbolised the potential that basically all the most powerful characters COULD have, but CHOSE not to spend.

Hopefully, though Zaunites might see her as a traitor for siding with Pilties
I knew her voice sounds familiar when i played assassin's creed mirage
her voooooooiiiiceeeee❤❤
bro why did the writers decided to have her killed and have the other guy as sheriff, unlike the other guy she wasn't corrupted like the other sheriff
Yeah. Actually, both Marcus and her were extremely cool characters, they had an interesting dynamic.
I think they were underutilized by the show, she was neat.
@@helly3368 I don’t really like Marcus, yea Grayson also did a deal with a person from the undercity such as vandor but Marcus was truly corrupted cuz he did deals with silco

@@helly3368 understandable but one things for sure is that grayson's death was much quicker than marcus's death, and that's facts right there
@@diamondguy-xs4lg Yeah. I was like "wtf" when she died, way too quick.
My friend found a jojo siwa ai on character ai and it sounds like Grayson I'm DEAD
I love Shohreh Aghdashloo.
I LOVE GRAYSON AHHHHHHH IM SO UPSET SHE DIED EARLY
We lost a true one :(
I have a feeling that she's gonna play a necessary part in season 2 despite being dead. Grayson was basically Caitlyn and the former sheriff's mentor.
Ooh, that's a good theory!
she was the best woman
わあ、とてもいいものを貸していただきました！昔のアニメがとても懐かしいです！
She look like that cop from madagascar
PLEASE NOT MADAME CHANTEL DUBOIS ToT
guys the voice is killing me. im losing my mind
Welcome to the club!
I am convinced Grayson is somehow going to come back as Camille
That's a great theory, if only!
She sounds like my grandma if my grandma had a lower voice
I love greyson
3:28 If those were the noise of her men getting stealth kill, it definitely fits videogame logic
Most would overlook that, also RIP to those enforcers 🙏
That's vi trying to open the basement's door
Ahahaha yes I loved Grayson sm
Loved Grayson. One of the good characters wasted on episode 3.😢
Lakshmi-2?
This was her side hustle before running fwc
🤣
Love the screaming cat fading in at 3:46
How we all feel after seeing that scene xD
Auntie 'Raan...?
Admiral Shala’Raan = Captain Grayson
I thought it was Dr Mundo that did this. Sad.
Maybe in Season 2, we'll see Dr. Mundo?
