Uncle Gregr
MinorA figure remembered only through the legacy of something he built before tragedy struck.
Uncle Gregr exists only as a tragic footnote in the Mistborn saga, referenced solely in The Lost Metal as a craftsman whose handiwork—a sturdy table—survives him after a fatal landslide. His brief mention serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost behind everyday objects in the post-Catacendre world, where even the most mundane furniture carries stories of loss. Across the series, Gregr never appears as a living character, his legacy reduced to a single, offhand anecdote that underscores the fragility of life amid Scadrial’s turbulent history.
