General
Jur Grady is a Dedicated Asha'man. Before coming to the Black Tower he used to be a farmer. He is married and like most of the married Asha'man, has bonded his wife to know if she is all right when he is away (ACoS, Ch. 27). Grady is among the first men to join the Black Tower after Rand's amnesty. First he was not sure if he wanted to stay, but Rand convinced him, to the disappointment of his wife Sora. He was then tested by and passed successfully (LoC, Ch. 3). Taim teaches him to use saidin and soon Grady, with some others, is sent to recruit new men for the Black Tower (LoC, Ch. 42). Grady is among the Asha'man led by Taim to rescue Rand at Dumai's Wells (LoC, Ch. 55). After the battle, Rand chooses Grady and eight other Asha'man to accompany him to Cairhien (ACoS, Ch. 2). When Rand sends Perrin to fetch Masema, he tells Grady and Fager Neald to accompany Perrin to Ghealdan (ACoS, Ch. 27). After Faile's kidnapping, Grady and Neald channel gateways in order for Perrin's troops to catch up with the Shaido (WH, Ch. 6). He is about twenty eight years old, but his face is already weathered from being a farmer. He is a stocky dark-eyed man, six or seven years older than Rand (LoC, Ch. 3).

Quotes
Uh ... my Lord Dragon, I've been thinking ... uh ... my pa is looking after my croft, a good piece of land if the stream don't dry up there might be a crop yet, if it rains, and ... and...." He crushed the cap, then straightened it again carefully. "I've been thinking about going home." (To Rand, before being tested).
""he's missing me, You learn to recognize that one right off. I wish I knew why her knee hurts, though." (to Perrin, about Sora, (ACoS, Ch. 27).
