Bawma is a major mid-campaign antagonist in 007 First Light, a Mauritanian warlord and the self-styled King of Aleph. He is portrayed by Lenny Kravitz. He operates within the broader Webb conspiracy rather than masterminding it, and his full role unfolds across the second half of the campaign.

Bawma is presented as a multi-dimensional antagonist rather than a single-note villain. His motivations and methods reveal across multiple chapters and tie directly into the Webb family arc. The campaign's narrative restraint around violence reflects the design philosophy that the License to Kill restraint rule applies to encounters with Bawma's faction as well.
A major antagonist within the Webb conspiracy arc rather than its mastermind

Bawma is an original IO Interactive creation. His backstory and faction allegiance are specific to this game.
IO Interactive announced a post-launch story mission, "Bawma Will Return," as part of the game's Year One content roadmap revealed in June 2026. In it, an unexpected alliance forms between MI6 and Bawma, the King of Aleph, who personally requests Bond's help, returning Bond to Aleph in Mauritania. No release date has been announced, and roadmap plans may change.
