Shay Graubard is a Canoptic Doll created by her family,<ref>“You’re a doll?” he asked, quiet. “Organ-stuffed?”

“In essence. Canopic doll.”

“Yet you can practice?”

“The organs are still there. The brain. Floating aimlessly within a soup of blood and other fluids. I am still Shay Graubard, but as a doll, I am obliged to follow the orders of the family that jointly crafted me.”- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref> she is also a Dollmaker.

Relationships

Her parents are cruel and controlling and she wants to escape from them.<ref>“We have three people who go to the Blue Heron. One to teach, two to run workshops. Went. Who knows when that opens up again? But that, to me, says the Graubards are safely a seven. If we hold position we’re fine. Not that I care.”

“Why don’t you care?” Vaughn asked.

“I want out. I’m here on orders, but I think I can use this as an opportunity. Find a good husband or a decent enclave, I’ll go. Get away.”

“Isn’t Eli super controlling? Eliana and Adam too?”- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref>

She thinks little of Easton Songetay,<ref>“No,” she said. “I think you’re pervish, peevish little psychopath. The only reason I’ve told you as much as I have is I think you’re stupid enough you’d embarrass yourself, me, and the Graubards if you didn’t know the facts.”- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref> becoming more hostile towards him after he found out that she was a doll.<ref>“Did you literally shit in her cereal when I wasn’t looking?” Cal asked.

Worse, Easton thought. I saw a vulnerability of hers. To some, especially those who’ve carried a vulnerability all their life, that’s unforgivable.- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref> Easton for his part hope to use the fact that she was a doll to undermine the Graubard family.<ref>But I’m going to earn that hatred, he thought. As soon as I get the opportunity, some way to let a Foundling of this eerie little puzzle town know without tipping of Rinehart, I’m going to use that vulnerability. Something to tie up the Graubards a bit.- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref>

Appearance

She wears a castle del monte dress with straight brushed hair with bangs cut at a diagonal angle.<ref name=":0">Shay Graubard was wearing a Castel del Monte dress and Easton had no idea why. It wasn’t like it was fitting for this backwater town, and it wasn’t fitting for a battlefield. Her haircut, at least, was simple enough to be easily looked after, brushed straight, with bangs cut at a sharp diagonal angle across the brow, and hair at her back doing the same at the opposite angle.

Her doll was with her, matching her in height, wearing a layered, form-fitting dress that exploded out into carefully arranged rolls and ruffles of lace as each layer terminated around the calves. It stood there with head tilted, hands pressed together, laid against a ceramic cheek, glossy black hair cascading down around one shoulder.- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref> The dress helps hide the fact that she's a doll.<ref name=":1" />

Her chest has no nipples and theirs a line running down the centre that oozed blood.<ref>Shay Graubard had no nipples. That was why he’d been confused at first. And there was a line across her chest, that curved at the edges, traveling down the front of her torso, at the left and right sides- any further out to either side, and they’d be at the side of her body, not the front. There was that blood in the seam at the upper center, oozed out and dried. The rest of it was sealed.- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref>

Abilities

She owns a ceramic doll named Véronique, it wears a lace dress with ruffles on it.<ref name=":0" /> It is capable of shooting out additional limbs from beneath it's clothing, these limbs have a reach of fifteen feet and can move in zigzags. <ref>Her doll remained there, posing, while elongated doll limbs darted out from between folds in her clothing, or from gaps- from collar, sleeve, the bottom of her dress. They rattled as they extended and reached ten or fifteen feet, jerking, twitching, and moving at sharp zig-zag angles rather than straight lines. Shoving one heavyset girl with a gas mask on back. Dragging another kid toward herself, where six arms gripped him.- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref>

As a doll she is required to obey her family, the more she does the more human like she becomes, ball joints being replaced by knees and seams disappearing.<ref name=":1">The longer I obey and the more grace I’m granted, the more I earn my physicality. The seams grow fainter, the signs harder to see. I used to have ball joints instead of shoulders and elbows, hips, knees, and ankles. Practitioners and the sensitive could once see the lines separating neck from head and neck from body, unless I wore high collars.”- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref>

Chronology

She went with Easton Songetay and Vaughn Willin to check on Verona, her and the team got sent to the Undercity. Whilst their she managed to rescue Cal Cavedar from the school.<ref>Shay had someone she’d rescued on her way down, apparently. The guy could walk with Vaughn’s support, but was wrapped in tape and rope. They were working to get his bindings off.

“Saw him through the window while on my way down. Paused to have Véronique reach in and snatch him up.”- Excerpt from Gone and Done It 17.x</ref>
