Gruffydd Trahaearn is an elven mechanic and member of the Trahaearn Clan. He was entrusted by Lady Trahaearn with ensuring her protection during her exile and was given the plans for a life support exoskeleton and automatons.[1][2] He chose to deviate from the designs he was given, which resulted in Lady Trahaearn being unable to wake up[2] and the automatons being defeated by a single human, despite being outnumbered.[3]

When Lady Trahaearn gave his work away to the human, he complained.[4] She responded to him in a letter, where she called his work sloppy and suggested that he deliberately created malfunctioning equipment.[5]
