Badger was an avatroid which Quences gave the Doctor when he was a child. It acted as a tutor, protector, and friend to him.
Badger looked nothing like its namesake. It was bulky, standing about seven feet tall and was covered in serrated black stripes over a cream-colored pelt. Its body was bear-like with tusks sprouting from its mouth. On either side of its head were massive curling horns “big enough to hang a coat from.”
Despite a realistic exterior, there were things which marked Badger to be obviously mechanical. It had a wide variety of emotions pre-programmed into it, but most of these emotions were too robotically precise to be convincing. Additionally its speakers were apparently hidden in its chest, because its voice never sounded as to be coming from its mouth. (NA: Lungbarrow)
Because Badger was meant to be able to protect the Doctor, it had incredible strength. Even enough to fight and kill a monster who’d taken up residence in the flooded northern annex of the House of Lungbarrow. Badger would even attack other Time Lords if it thought they were threatening the Doctor.
When the Doctor was disowned by his family and later left Gallifrey in his stolen TARDIS, Badger was stored away in the House of Lungbarrow. He remained in stand-by mode, reactivating only when the Doctor returned to Lungbarrow in his seventh incarnation.
It is suggested that 'Badger' is a nickname the Doctor gave it because of it's habit of "endlessly badgering" the Doctor during his tutoring. (NA: Lungbarrow)

It is Niko Bellic's first cell phone provider that he uses to communicate and interact with the environment. Badger equipment is not compatible with ring tones or wallpaper and only prominently displays the Badger logo as its theme. Even though Roman supposedly gives his old phone to Niko during the mission It's Your Call, the player can still access the phone beforehand, though the only thing that can be done with it is trigger multiplayer and, in the PC version, the Video Editor.
The PDA present on the touch screen runs on the Badger network. The software is apparently known as BadgerOS, and gives the player access to the game's menus and features. While mobile phone conversations are not present, the PDA (as well as the computer found in safehouses) can be used to receive email. It also has three themes selectable from the Settings menu(which can be found inside the System application), the default is tne Badger's skin, but one for "Sprunk" and another for "Tw@ Internet C@fe" can alsoe be chosen.
