THE EVIL SHE-RA CHARACTERS: The Evil Horde

The Evil Horde is a group of villains, most wearing a red bat on their costumes to pledge their allegiance to the evil group. Their goal is simple: to take over Ethteria.

Hordak
Hordak is the leader of the Evil Horde, and he rules his Horde Troops from the Fright Zone. He was also the mentor of Skeletor, the villain in the He-Man series and toy line. When he left Eternia and Skeletor behind, he also kidnapped an infant. Princess Adora. (She would later betray him, turn good and become She-Ra, his new enemy.) Hordak's special powers allow him to turn into other objects and shoot cannons from his arms.

Shadow Weaver
Shadow Weaver was an evil sorceress, second in command to Hordak. It was her powers that made Princess Adora follow Hordak. Shadow Weaver's real name is Light Spinner. She was trained along with her friend Castaspella, however she turned evil. (Castaspella is a member of the Great Rebellion.) Shadow Weaver has many magical powers.

Catra
Catra is the most powerful evil female character in She-Ra. She is the Force-Captain if the Evil Horde, however sometimes she would break out on her own, as in not working on behalf of Hordak. She dons a magic mask, and when she pulls it down over her eyes, she can transform into a purple panther. She also has telepathic powers that can control other cats.

Entrapa
The Entrapa doll was released as a sidekick to Catra. However, on the cartoon Entrapa was a skilled inventor who made many creations to help the Evil Horde. She also has very long hair and can mentally control it to capture her enemies.

Mantenna
Mantenna is one of the four original Horde Troopers. He can extend his eyes from his sockets, as well as shoot various things from his eyes. Mantenna also had a stuttering voice, which was thrown in for comic relief.

Grizzlor
Grizzlor originally appeared in the He-Man series, but made the jump to She-Ra. He is a beast-like creature with sharp claws and a lot of strength. He wasn't portrayed as being very intelligent.

Scorpia
Scorpia is a member of the Evil Horde, however she is queen of her own area of Etheria and owns several slaves. She and Catra do not get along. Scorpia's powers include her being able to use pincher like claws and her tail to capture her enemies.

Octavia
Octavia is a commander in the Evil Horde. Like her name would imply, she has eight tentacles, just like an octopus. She can control them very well, and captures her enemies. She can also drain energy from her enemies, like a leech.

Imp
Imp is like the Evil Horde's counterpart of Kowl. He looks similar, only is blue in color. Imp can shift shapes.

Other She-Ra villains: Rattlor, Vultak, Tung Lashor, False Face, Duke Dreer, Dylamug, Inspector Darkey, Multi-Bot, Leech, Mudolok and Spyster.
