Hadji Singh is Jonny's adoptive brother, who is interested in mysticism and studying. He is also the Sultan of Bangalore, India.
Hadji was an orphan on the streets of Calcutta, India. Pasha Peddler helped to look out for him, and he received an education from both Pasha as well as some US marines.
Hadji studied yoga and eastern mysticism while growing up, gaining abilities such as body temperature and breathing regulation. He often exhibits a fatalistic, calculated outlook towards most situations, contrasted with Jonny's impulsiveness. He is considered to be Sikh from the turban and having "Singh" in his name.
Hadji's has notable differences from his original continuity character; he is now a few years older than Jonny, rather than being the same age; in season 1, he is Dr. Quest's assistant rather than his adopted son (although he is introduced as his son again in season 2); and his mystical abilities are more subtle and grounded in meditative practices (although he exercises more powers in season 2).
