Henchman (from Cuphead)

Henchman is unique to his role as a henchman as he is between two archetypes. Despite being both a tad dopey and the Devil's seemingly annoying and incompetent assistant, he is not really that foolish. He is highly emotionally intelligent and caring towards his boss, and is the closest thing the Devil has to a friend throughout the series. Additionally, unlike most villain sidekicks, he has a good relationship with his boss and, though alarmed about the Devil's anger. He often starts his sentences with "Uhm" and peppers his sayings with filler noises.

Clumsiness: Henchman is shown to be quite clumsy, which is mainly demonstrated near the end of "Roll the Dice", where he trips over himself and gets stuck in a band member's tuba after having been appointed as the new host of King Dice's show before the show's cancellation.
Slow-paced Conceivement/ Short Attention Span: Over the course of the series, Henchman has been shown to lose focus and be rather slow at processing to his surroundings from time to time.

Flight: While Henchman has considerably smaller wings than the other demons, at least compared to the rest of his body, his wings can function as well as any other demon.
Giving advice: Henchman is shown to be quite good at giving advice, especially to the Devil.
Even Temper: Contrast to the Devil, Henchman is very equanimous and can easily calm his boss down during his tantrums.
Engineering: Henchman is implied to have remarkable engineering skills as shown in Christmas, where he built a toy train for the Devil which was bigger and, according to the latter, had a better "choo-choo" sound than the one he originally wanted.

Despite being a demon and the Devil's primary assistant, Henchman doesn't seem to have a malicious bone in his body and seems to mostly concern himself with cheering the Devil up or, at least, keeping him from incinerating too many demons. When Mugman is taken by the Devil, rather than show malicious joy like his boss, he instead looks horrified and perhaps even empathetic for Cuphead, showing how he knew Cuphead pushed his luck too much and, unlike his boss, didn't want anything bad to happen. However, this is downplayed as he does still encourage the Devil to cause mischief around the Inkwell Isles when the latter is feeling down and excitedly asks the Devil for details once he's returned from his rampage. Additionally, he behaves pretty casually while reading a headline of dreadful events in the newspaper and seems to consider the souls being tormented outside of the Devil's window as much of a "beautiful day" as his boss does. Though the first impression he leaves is one of the stereotypical dopey flunky, he later proves to be very emotionally intelligent and quick enough on the draw to keep up with the Devil's mood swinging tendencies and fiery temper. Most notably, he realises immediately when the Devil has reached his rage-breaking point when Cuphead insults him one too many times. Henchman is a sincerely affable demon who genuinely cares about the Devil and even looks out for his fellow demons, such as saving King Dice from the Devil's literal fiery temper and giving the invisible sweater to Stickler so the Devil can't hurt him, despite disliking him like his boss does. In general, Henchman is shown to be intelligent, gentle, and down-to-earth with an impressive amount of physical prowess. Henchman is always respectful and caring towards the Devil, as long as the latter doesn't attempt to fool him.

Henchman is a Fat Demon. Fat Demons are large, heavyset devils colored in brilliant purple. They have long beaky noses, a pair of short thin horns, small wings from their humps, elephant hoof-like feet, pointy devil tails, and slightly loose elbow-length gloves. All Fat Demons have yellow eyes with red pupils. Henchman has slightly different colours than an in-game Fat Demon: His face is white, while his horns, wing-webs, and gloves are all yellow. He doesn't often stand up straight, instead hunching his shoulders a bit.
