First appearance Exile to Hell. Balam's attendant in Cerberus. A young, thin black man with an infectious grin and friendly manner, he is one of the few humans who can "tune out" Balam's telepathic intrusions.

He was chosen by Lakesh for this task because of his high scoring on the esp tests in the ville. 

Over the three years that he had been Balam's attendant, he had actually grown fond of the Archon.  He always treated Balam with kindness and respect, and gained the apprication from Balam in return.

Twice (once in Iceblood, and again in Tigers of Heaven) he allowed Balam to use him to communicate through, as Balam had a very difficult time in talking since it had been such an inacredibly long time since the Archon had used his vocal cords.
