Roy Dennefer is a member of the extended "Grey Family" in the Marvel Comics universe.
The character, created by Chris Claremont and Chris Bachalo, first appeared in The Uncanny X-Men #466 (January 2006).
Within the context of the stories, Roy Dennefer is the husband of Phyliss Dennefer, the sister of Elaine Grey and maternal aunt of Jean Grey and Sara Grey. He was portrayed as a Vietnam War veteran having served two tours, and a former instructor at West Point.
During the "End Of Greys" story arc in which the Shi'ar Death Commandos were eradicating members of the Grey family because of their genome, Roy and Phyliss are invited to the Grey family reunion. Just as they reach the front door they are murdered by the commando Warskull so that the other members of his team could create an impenetrable shield that would surround the Grey's home.
