“ | You shall rue this arrogance, whore. These little lizards will not keep you safe, I promise you. We will fill the air with arrows if they come within a league of Yunkai. Do you think it is so hard to kill a dragon? | „ |

Grazdan mo Eraz, known as Razdal mo Eraz in the television series, is a minor antagonist in the A Song of Ice and Fire novel series and its television adaptation, Game of Thrones. He is one of the Wise Masters of Yunkai, a wealthy noble and slave trader.

He was portrayed by George Georgiou in the television series.
Biography[]
A Song of Ice and Fire[]
“ | If blood is what you wish, let it flow. I am told you have freed your eunuchs. Freedom means as much to an Unsullied as a hat to a haddock. Those who survive we shall enslave again, and use to retake Astapor from the rabble. We can make a slave of you as well, do not doubt it. There are pleasure houses in Lys and Tyrosh where men would pay handsomely to bed the last Targaryen. | „ |
~ Grazdan to Daenerys Targaryen. |
Grazdan mo Eraz first appears in A Storm of Swords, where he was sent by the Wise Masters as an envoy to negotiate with Daenerys Targaryen when she comes to conquer the city. He bribes her with gold and attempts to persuade her to ignore Yunkai. Daenerys offers him an ultimatum to release the slaves.
Grazdan then threatens Daenerys, telling her that once the battle is over, she, along with her people, will be enslaved. He has his tokar burned by Drogon, prompting him to flee.
In A Dance With Dragons Grazdan travels to Volantis in an attempt to convince the ruling class of the Triarchs to send their fleet against Daenerys, bribing them and entertaining them with lavish feasts. He also brought them slave girls and boys trained in prostitution, with the way of the seven sighs, to please the Volantene rulers. During his stay in Volantis, he spreads many false stories about Daenerys, including that she is blood thirsty, feeds her dragons on the flesh of newborn babies, impales anyone who defies her on spikes to die, takes a different lover every night, and bathes in the blood of maidens to retain her youth.
Game of Thrones[]
The role of Razdal mo Eraz in the third book and season is essentially the same.
He returns in the sixth season with the Volantene Belicho Paenymion and the Astapori Yezzan zo Qaggaz to negotiate peace with Tyrion Lannister in Meereen. Afterwards, however, the Slaver Alliance attacked the city with their fleet, bombarding it with trebuchets and demanding Daenerys surrender. Drogon later arrives and burns an attacking ship. Grey Worm then offers one of the three envoys to be executed as a punishment. Razdal and Belicho pick Yezzan for being lowborn. However, Grey Worm instead cuts the throats of the first two with his knife as a warning to the third.
