The Gray-Manes are an old and influential clan in Whiterun. Before the Civil War, the Gray-Manes were friends with their equally venerable neighbors, clan Battle-Born. However, the Gray-Manes have become strong supporters of the Stormcloaks, as well as Ulfric Stormcloak. The Battle-Borns sided with the Empire, and so now the clans are feuding.
Eorlund Gray-Mane is probably the clan's most renowned member, being the master smith at Whiterun's Skyforge. Smiths all over Skyrim can be heard referring to his skill.
House Gray-Mane can be found near the Temple of Kynareth in Whiterun.
