Red Arremer (レッドアリーマー), also known as Firebrand, Red Reamer, and Red Devil in the English localizations of the "Gargoyle's Quest" series, "Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts", and "Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins" respectively, is a fictional demon who originally appeared in the arcade game "Ghosts n' Goblins" as one of the first strong enemies encountered by the player. He is also the mascot of the "Ghouls n' Ghosts" series, usually in the logo engulfed in blue flames. He also stars his own series that consists of "Gargoyle's Quest", "Gargoyle's Quest II" and "Demon's Crest".

Appearance

In common, he has red skin and only wearing blue bracers, with gray/blue wings. His face is a distinct evil grin, and he often has a spike-shaped bump on his head. The character is sometimes shown with a loincloth and more powerful incarnations wear increasing amounts of armor. On the cover of the box art for the US and Europe version of Gargoyle's Quest, he's oddly shown with green skin and a lot more clothing than usual, possibly to make him look less frightening for the Game Boy audience from that period. On the US cover of Demon's Crest, he is depicted with an oddly feline face and gold claws.

There are actually three different incarnations of Red Arremer in the "Ghosts 'n Goblins" series. The one described above is the original Red Arremer (or Red Arremer Ace as he is known in "Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts"). Red Arremer King, the second incarnation of the character appearing in "Ghouls 'n Ghosts", wears an armor and has a horn over his forehead. Red Arremer Joker is a larger version of King who serves as the leader of the other Red Arremers and produces other Arremers. Joker appears as a boss in the Game Boy Advance of "Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts" and in "Namco x Capcom". Note that the names of the Red Arremer family follows a playing card motif. Lastly, a version called Dark Red Devil appears in a duo before the final battle in Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins.
