Batul is an elder orc druid of the Gatekeepers, and the spiritual leader of the Fat Tusk tribe. He is blind in his right eye, but receives prophetic visions.
When Geth and Natrac were brought to the Fat Tusk tribe by Orshok, the tribe was torn between helping the pair to fight the Bonetree, or turning them over to the Bonetree to appease Dah'mir. Batul put the pair to a test to determine which way the tribe should go.
After the assault on the Bonetree Mound, Batul took on the role of mentor for Warden, and initiated him into the Gatekeepers.
