Barnacle Badhul (usually address as only "Badhul") is the manservant of the criminal Wide Wale. He is thin, with dark skin and deformed features from some unknown affliction. He seems to be voiced in a manner similar to Mr. Kobayashi, an associate of Kaiser Soze in the film, The Usual Suspects.
Badhul is extremely well-mannered and loyal to Wide Wale. In return, Wide Wale is highly respectful of his servant.
