This is Cepot (aka Bagong), a jester who is part of Javanese folklore and the one that adds humor to the drama of the ancient Hindu stories.
According to Javanese legend, when the God Ismaya was ordered to go down to earth and become Semar, the guardian of the Kesatria, the great royal warrior class in Hinduism, Ismaya complained that he would be lonely and needed a friend. The gods caustically replied that he could have his shadow as a friend. When he reached the earth, Semar's shadow transformed itself into a human form and took the name of Cepot or Bagong. - Windsong2Mythology - Cepot / Bagong Papercraft [Sal Azad]
