The Henchperson of Indeterminate Gender, also known as the "Enormous Androgynous Person" and the one who looked like neither a man nor a woman in the books, is a sinister androgynous individual. Their first appearance was in The Bad Beginning as one of Count Olaf's acting troupe members. Much like their leader, they are often antagonistic to the Baudelaire orphans. A core characteristic about this person that causes shivers to the children is that they are always silent.
