Personality
A work hard/play hard kind of girl, Grace doesn't appreciate flippancy or distractions while she's trying to concentrate, but lets her hair down (occasionally too far) at other times. Heavy on the skeptical side, she finds it hard to accept the more fantastical explanations of the things they investigate and is more interested in debunking any overly-mythical theories. She does, however, accept that there is intelligent life on other planets and that time-travel exists, due to incidents she was involved with during her time with UNIT (which she refuses to speak about directly, having signed the Official Secrets Act).

Displays symptoms of PTSD, but has no idea why as the haunting visions and nightmares bear no resemblance to anything she has experienced, she is in denial and not inclined to discuss it with anyone. Apart from possibly the bottom of the next bottle.
