Gray Lemres is Lemres' Outlander counterpart from Puyo Puyo!! Quest. Similarly to Lemres, he acts like a role model figure and offers others candy upon meeting them. However, unlike his counterpart, he is a sinister person, and once someone consumes his sweets, he is able to use magic to turn them into sweets themselves. To do so, he often lures others into his candy house, which exists in the Outlands. He likely eats those that he's able to turn into candies and cakes, as he refers to the Outlands as his "hunting grounds". He hates being around others and prefers his quiet time, which is likely why he's motivated to eradicate life in his world. Unlike the other Outlanders, he much prefers the dark, empty, silent nature of the Outlands compared to Pwurp Island. Gray Lemres is a fan of bitter-tasting sweets, and everything his candy house is made of has a bitter taste to it. He likes to create "bitter" memories, as he claims to believe that those negative experiences will be more deeply engraved into one's heart. Though, due to his general disregard for life and sadistic tendencies when trying to create "bittersweet memories", it's more likely that he enjoys making others suffer. While he is usually calm to an unsettling degree, upon seeing "a certain someone", he becomes a completely different person. It's implied that this person is Lemres, as he wishes to bury Lemres' world in "bitter sweets and bittersweet memories", as well as the Outlands in which he lives.
Relationships
- Lemres
- Gray Lemres' disposition shifts completely when in the presence of Lemres, becoming aggressive and resentful. While he claims he has no interest in what Lemres likes and much prefers the Outlands compared to Pwurp Island, he expresses an interest in attempting to "replace" the original Lemres. He claims that Lemres is kind to and likes everyone despite hating himself. While Klug and Feli vehemently deny these words, Lemres himself doesn't make any comments on their validity. Despite Gray Lemres' hostility towards him, Lemres is interested in his doppelganger and wishes to hear his story. Even after they battle, Lemres doesn't want to leave the Outlands without being able to chat with Gray Lemres first.
- Atari
- During the events of Chapter 6 of Hop Step Pwurp World, Gray Lemres targets Atari by tricking her into thinking he's Lemres. Upon eating parts of his candy house, Gray Lemres turns Atari into a piece of candy and almost eats her before he is saved by Puubot.
- Outlander Archwarlock Rozatte
- Gray Lemres and Outlander Archwarlock Rozatte are enemies as seen in Chapter 6 of Hop Step Pwurp World. Outlander Rozatte shows up to Gray Lemres' candy house to confront him, and the two have polar opposite views on the desirability of living in the Outlands. Outlander Rozatte believes that Gray Lemres is the one that made it possible to travel between Pwurp Island and the Outlands.
Trivia
- His skill name in Puyo Puyo!! Quest gives him the title of the Bitter Eclipse Warlock.
- Gray Lemres is based on the witch from the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel.
- He isn't the first Puyo Puyo character based on this fable, as the Puyo Puyo!! Quest Arcade characters Hans & Grute are based on the titular characters themselves.
- Gray Lemres' name, はいいろのレムレス (Haiiro no remuresu), could be a reference to J. R. R. Tolkien's character Gandalf the Grey, 灰色のガンダルフ (Haiiro no gandarufu).
- His name could also be a reference to the naming convention of some of the alternate costumes in Puyo Puyo!! 20th Anniversary, those being Yellow Satan, Red Amitie, Black Sig, and White Feli.
- Gray Lemres has bright red eyes. While Outlanders have eye colors similar to their counterparts, it's unclear if Lemres' eyes are red, as he has never been seen with open eyes.
