"It is I! Wells the Grey!"

—Wells the Grey introducing himself to the Council of Wells^[src]

Wells the Grey is a resident from Earth-13 who may or may not be a user of magic.

Biography

Wells the Grey accidentally connected to a meeting for the Council of Wells. Just as he introduced himself, he was disconnected from the meeting by Harry Wells.

Sometime later, Wells the Grey traveled to Earth-1 and hijacked Cisco Ramon's blog, writing a post before encrypting what he'd written with a spell of permanence, which Cisco insisted was actually a complex virus and not actual magic.
