Lord Grallyx was a Demon, and the lord of the Ratreyfian Underworld in one universe. During an encounter with Jenny Everywhere, Grallyx gained the ability to shift, but was trapped inside a book belonging to Laura Drake.

Description

Physical appearance

Lord Grallyx was an alligator-like demon, with six eyes, four arms, two tails, and “far too many teeth for Jenny [Everywhere]’s liking”. As Grand High Lord, Grallyx wore a flaming crown that hovered a few inches above his head, although he had lost it by the time Jenny imprisoned him. (PROSE: Jenny Everywhere and the Lord of Hell)

Powers & abilities

Lord Grallyx was an individually very powerful Demon; he had no interest in making demonic pacts with mortals, as he did not actually need to accrue his power. If released from Hell, he suggested that he had the power to lay waste to the entire Earth himself. In addition to whatever abilities he might have earlier possessed, Grallyx was able to use his magic to copy Jenny Everywhere's shifting powers after repeated first-hand exposure to them — although he was unable to make much of use of them before being imprisoned.

Biography

Lord Grallyx was summoned to Earth from the Ratreyfian Underworld by Laura Drake using an old demonology book, with the intent of making a deal with him to help Laura pass a vital history exam she needed to get into the advanced science class at her school. As soon as he materialised, Grallyx explained that he intended to simply take over the world, having no need of making deals.

Jenny Everywhere had been helping Laura, however, and with another, more experienced Jenny taking temporary control of her body, she shifted Grallyx away from his universe and transported him rapidly through several other dimensions. Every time, Grallyx was temporarily inserted into the history and fabric of that world's Jenny's life, changing as needed — such as turning into a Dragon in the world of a Knight Jenny or a terrifying cosmic singularity called ‘GRALL-X’ in a space-soldier Jenny's dimension. Every time, Grallyx eventually realised who he really was. Through trial and error, he eventually learned how to replicate shifting with his own demonic power.

However, before he could use this to his advantage, Jenny finally found a dimension whose rules allowed Grallyx to be defeated: in this world, they were both living drawings, enabling Jenny to draw shift-preventing chains around Grallyx, keeping him trapped as a drawing. When she returned herself and him to the dimension they'd started from, Grallyx was now genuinely trapped as an illustration in the very demonology book Laura had used to summon him.

In the Collapsed Cosmos, Jenny Everywhere would later reminisce with Glendalf about fighting Lord Grallyx on “the astral plane”. (PROSE: The Hermetic Garbage of Jenny Everywhere)
