He of the Crippled Foot

"I am he of the crippled foot, the child left behind, forgotten and unseen. I am the last descendant of my people, the only one, and when I am gone they will be gone."

- He of the Crippled Foot

The Old Man, solely known as he of the crippled foot, was the child who remained behind when the Pied Piper abducted all children in his village centuries ago. He was unable to follow due to his crippled foot. Once he realized what had happened, the boy found ways to prolong his life in hopes of putting a stop to the pied piper's power.

History
As the centuries went by, the boy grew into an old man, though he never had the power to stop the pied piper.

In 2002, he had a witch redirect the pipe's magic to Piper Halliwell so the children would be drawn to her instead of the Pied Piper. He eventually made his way to Halliwell Manor, where he explained everything and helped destroy Dale Allen. However, the demon had conjured up a portal before he died, and, having wondered what lied on the other side, the crippled old man left behind his flute and walked straight into the portal. The flute he left behind was played by a young witch, who managed to close the portal, saving all children present.
