If you aren't a known enemy of him or his friends he'll help you with no hesitation at all. The well being of others come before his own needs or wants.

Unforgiving - Forgiving people is one of the thing he tries to work on. Lance is the type of guy to hold a grudge against you for cheating him out of ten beri in a dice game. Though it may not seem like he still has the grudge and may even joke and hang around you, he still will remember and eventually get you back.

He tends to start wild brawls at bars and inn when he is highly intoxicated.

Confident and Optimistic - He does know his limit but he like to do thing with a positive winning attitude.

He believes "Where there is dark there must be light close by" and stands by that all the time.

Hard worker - Lance has been known to have natural talent when it comes to his profession, but that doesn't stop him from trying to become better. When he is aboard a ship (with a crew), he tends to study books on how to create medicine and other medical base books. He want to make sure he is prepared for any illness or injuries that may happen to himself or others.

The Conomi Islands is where the story of Lance B. Gray began. There he was born within the Gosa Village. His parents were two hard working doctors. Though they believed in the world government and the marines they treated any patients that came there way. Against what the villages advice they would treat pirates that would passing through. Sometime the pirates would even ransack the village after being treated. Lance didn't take after his parents when it came to being completely selfless. He thought his parents were idiots for helping the pirates that would mess up the village. At the same time he thought of how cool it would be to live as a pirate and do whatever he wanted.

Once he turned five, his parents began teach and show him how to properly treat injuries along with basic first aid and CPR. Lance didn't like taking the lesson, even though he was claimed to have natural talent by his parent. By the age of eight, he acted as a male nurse of the village. At this age he began to act out in the form of not treating certain patients. Those untreated patients happened to be marines. They often would yell at his parents because of his actions but Lance didn't care. He wanted to be a pirate, and often told his parents that he would leave with some pirates that seemed strong enough and needed a doctor. His parents were kind hearted and told him each time "We will love you no matter what. If you want to be a pirate go out and achieve your dream...Just know that we will always be with you...NOW GET BACK TO WORK!"

Two peaceful years passed then tragedy struck. One early morning a pirate ship that had been chased by a marine fleet docked at the port. Instinctively both his parents rushed to the docks to treat anyone whom was injured. Lance offered to come but they told him to stay behind, that they'd be can in no less than an hour, and they said they would tell him all about it when they got back. Lance angrily waited in front of the door for them to return. The young boy waited for several hours for them to return but they never did. Once he saw the sun began to set, he rushed down toward the docks. Once he got there he stopped. His eyes began to widen, as he briefly lost control of his legs. His body seemed paralyzed, at the sight of the piles of bodies laying at the shore. On the horizon he could see a marine ship sailing away, it was to far off to see any specific flags of any sort. Then he noticed that his parents were no where in sight.

Lance began to breath heavily, as he regained control o f his legs. He slowly took steps forward as he called out for his parents. "Mom? Dad?" He said in a low tone as he stepped over and around corpses. He kept saying to himself "They are around here somewhere helping some one.. They have to be.." Then he saw them...They were face down, his father was on top of his mother with his arms around her as if he was shielding her from something. Tears began to run down his face as he dropped to his knees. He then let out a low scream in pain and anger. Moments later he rushed to their side and kept pushing screaming "WAKE UP! WAKE UP!" They didn't make a move they were already gone. After about thirty minutes, Lance stood to his feet and faced the ocean. "I will avenge your death.. I will find the people responsible, beat them to death, patch them up and do it again...I promise."

Apparently, while his parents were helping the pirates the marines showed up. There was a massive battle between pirates and marine on the shore. The two doctors were mistaken for pirates and killed in the cross fire by the marine in charge. Later that day the villagers arrived to the scene. They buried all the body, but only had a funeral for Lances parents. During the funeral the boy remained quiet and kept a calm face. All he could think about is getting stronger, and how he should've been there to protect them. Many of the villagers offered to take him in but he refused and decided to live in his home alone. There he began to study all of his notes and books on becoming a doctor. Months later he decided to take the role as the village doctor.

On the side, he began learning how to defend himself on his own. It was mostly through trial and error but he made an unique style of free form hand to hand combat. At the age of eighteen he managed to get his hands on a devil fruit. He was tricked into eating it by a couple of bone head pirates, but it worked out for the best. He had eaten the Moku Moku no Mi to become a Smoke man. Lance had attained the power to turn any part of his body into smoke at will. For the six months of having the power he was unable to control it to the point where he couldn't treat anyone as a doctor. Eventually he managed to gain a hold on his powers to the point where they aren't a hindrance to his ability to work as a doctor. He even managed to his fruit powers into his fighting ability.

Finally at the age of Nineteen, Lance said his final good byes to his village and set sail to become a pirate. He took a large sack of supplies and a small raft with him. He didn't have a clue to where he was heading but he knew his journey was just beginning.
