Bahorel is described as a "good-natured mortal, who kept bad company." He embodies the more substantive heroic virtues such as bravery and loyalty but is misguided in his pursuits of earthly pleasures. He's unwaveringly prodigal in his spending, lavishes his natural connection with women, and stands ready to commit to physical solutions to problems. Although he does not carry the same fascination with proper education as the others (he indefinitely avoids the completion of his law degree), he is no fool and understands the purity of good morals, and has a willingness to support them fiercely.
