“	I may look nice, but I'm petty and vengeful on the inside.	„
	~ Barry admitting to his true nature.

“	Barry: Look around you, toots! The whole world is insane! But that suits us, don't it, Brian? Brian: I used to be a tax accountant. Now I drink the blood of my enemies and eat dessert for breakfast! Barry: See? Turns out the end of the world...is sweet!	„
	~ Barry as the leader of The Marauders.

Barry is a recurring antagonist in the Disney Channel animated series Amphibia, serving as the main antagonist of the episodes "Cursed" and "Sasha's Angles".

He is a seemingly affable candy and berry salesman from Wartwood, who is secretly a sorcerer that curses people for petty reasons. He would later become the leader of a group of Marauders to take advantage of the devastation caused by King Andrias' takeover of Amphibia.

He was voiced by Keith Silverstein.

His Evil Ranking[]

His Villainous Deeds[]

While he may appear to be a nice and friendly salesman on the outside, he's actually a petty and vengeful sorcerer who uses witchcraft for selfish reasons, especially cursing others to get what he wants.
After Anne and Sprig accidentally knock him over and cause his Blue Moon berries to fall off, he pretends to forgive them and gave them a candy, all in order to hide his true nature and have them eat without knowing what he's planning to do.
That night, he curses both Anne and Sprig, turning Anne into a bird and make Sprig grow his hair too much by the next day.
After Anne, Sprig and Maddie discover his true nature, the reason why he cursed them both was because they ruined his Blue Moon berries supply by accidentally knocking him over. After he seemingly forgave them both, he secretly glares at them spitefully from behind, vowing to curse them in order to "teach them a lesson". However, his excuse is nothing but petty and selfish to justify as Maddie called him out on this.
Admitted himself of enjoying being petty and vengeful.
Even after Anne and Sprig apologize to him again, he rejects their apology by refusing to lift their curse, leading him and Maddie to fight each other.
Attempts to curse Maddie out of spite after she called him out on his actions.
After being turned into a chicken, he demands Maddie to change him back to normal and became devastated when she refused, showing that he only cared of wanting his normal body back rather than showing remorse over his actions. Not to mention he also deserved it for cursing both Anne and Sprig out of petty and selfishness.
He leads a gang of dirty and anarchistic Amphibians, the Marauders, who have intercepted the Wartwood Resistance's latest shipment of weapons, neither of them are working for King Andrias nor the Resistance, hijack caravans and raid villages for scraps. Sasha also referred to them as "a huge, unwashed thorn in [her] side".
After he publicly reveals his true nature to the Resistance, he plans to sell the members to King Andrias for an extra cash. He also admits he doesn't care if Amphibia is doomed if King Andrias and the Core wasn't stopped.

Why He Doesn't Stand Out?[]

His villainy is exceptionally bog-standard, as all he does is try to kill the heroes.
While he can't be compared to King Aldrich, The Core or King Andrias since those villains have more resources than him, Barry still fails the heinous standards to Curator Ponds (who turned many sapient animals into wax statues and tried to give Anne Boonchuy a fate worse than death) and Teddy and Martha (who both manipulated several Amphibians into coming to their inn only to be eaten and killed).
He has some comedic moments where he isn't taken seriously, especially his defeat where he was turned into a chicken twice by Maddie.
