Horde Prime (Filmation)

Horde Prime is the ruler of the intergalactic Evil Horde. He is only seen surrounded by green smoke. His true form was unseen when he first appeared in the cartoon, but the comics gave him an insectoid face. A metallic arm comes out of the cloud of smoke when he is outraged or angered. Horde Prime has a son named Prince Zed who calls Hordak his uncle. This suggests that Horde Prime may have once looked like Hordak before his transformation, however, it was never confirmed. He serves as the overarching antagonist of Masters of the Universe franchise.

Horde Prime (1985) and the Evil Horde are rivals with King Mondo's Machine Empire (though they fear his (Horde Prime) power), as well as Darkseid's Elite, as they conquered more planets and galaxies than he has. However, he doesn't go into conflict with Astronema as he fears the wrath of her master, Dark Specter.
Horde Prime (1985) is one of the most trusted allies of the Grand Monarch of Evil: Dark Specter.
