The recent release of The Acolyte has brought fresh faces to the Star Wars universe, capturing the hearts of fans everywhere. Among these new characters, one stands out: Yord Fandar.

The Himbo Factor
Yord Fandar, portrayed by Charlie Barnett, was introduced in the premiere episodes and has quickly become a fan favorite. Described affectionately by fans as a ‘himbo’, Yord might not be the most skilled Jedi, but his earnest efforts and charming personality have endeared him to many.
A Memorable Introduction
In one of the more memorable scenes from Episode 1, Yord is caught shirtless, diligently steaming his robes. This moment not only provided comic relief but also gave us a glimpse into Yord’s unique personality. As one fan put it, One of the funniest parts of Yord thus far stems from the fact that we saw him shirtless, steaming his robes.
Instant Fanbase
The character’s appeal has led to the formation of an immediate fanbase known as the Yord Horde. The group’s enthusiasm is palpable, with numerous discussions and tweets celebrating Yord’s quirks and qualities. Even prominent Star Wars accounts have joined in on the fun.
The Yord Horde Awards
Comic writer Tommy Stella captured this frenzy perfectly with his mock ceremony post on X:Welcome to the 32nd annual YORD HORDE AWARDS where we honor excellency in Yord by selecting the best Yord of the Year. Who will win this year? The nominees are Yord.
Tactical Attempts
Despite his ‘himbo’ nature, Yord genuinely tries to contribute meaningfully. For instance, he concocted an elaborate plan to deceive Qimir (Manny Jacinto) and extract vital information. However, Jecki Lon (Dafne Keen), Master Sol’s current Padawan, soon proposed a more straightforward approach.
Sassy Yet Lovable
Adding to his charm, Yord’s sassy demeanor brings an Obi-Wan Kenobi-like quality to his interactions. Whether he’s involved in action scenes or trying to navigate complex situations, he’s always up to something noteworthy.
Conclusion: Join the Horde
It’s been a while since fans collectively embraced a Star Wars character with such fervor.The Acolyte seems to have rekindled that sense of community with Yord at its heart. If you haven’t yet felt compelled to join the Yord Horde, perhaps it’s time to give this lovable Jedi Knight more attention.
