Al-Khali is an associate of Jasper Horst, who's job is to follow Inspector Lewton to wherever he goes to spy on him, and report everything to Horst. Lewton meets Al-Khali when he returns to his office and finds him waiting for him there. Al Khali then takes him to Horst. Near the end of the game, Lewton hides in a bush in the Wizard's Pleasaunce and Al Khali is killed by Anu-anu, making him the eighth conterweight killing, the murders of the summoning of Nylonathatep.
