* {{Irony}}: When Skeletor calls him out for making Motherboard his right-hand instead of him, Hordak boasts that she was merely an extension of his hand, a tool of the Horde, just like Skeletor. Ironically, Hordak himself is just another tool of the Horde, as he is merely just the second-in-command of Horde Prime, who is the ''true'' leader of the Horde. Skeletor even calls him out on this, too.

Added DiffLines:

* PuppetKing: Various toys and promotional materials refer to him as the Emperor of the Horde. However, at the end of the day, Hordak is little more than a warlord acting as the Horde's public face and field leader. If anything, Hordak is nothing more than a glorified poster boy and lapdog for Horde Prime, who is the ''true'' Emperor of the Horde.

* AdaptationalBadass: While his Filmation counterpart wasn't weak per say, his boastful, dimwitted, and arrogant nature meant he lacked a great deal of foresight, resulting in his plans always failing, getting trounced by He-Man, She-Ra, and the Great Rebellion at every turn. Here, while he ultimately ends up being defeated, he still proves himself to be a force to be reckoned with, as Skeletor finds out.
* AdaptationalIntelligence: Filmation Hordak wasn't outright stupid, but he was often blindsided by his arrogance, sadistic urge to make the Etherians' lives even more miserable, and therefore, made foolish decisions, [[GladIThoughtOfIt took his minions ideas as his own]], constantly insulted them and dropped them down his trap door. Here, while still incredibly arrogant, he displays far more cunning and pragmatism than his original counterpart ever did. His sadism also isn't as pronounced and is overall more respectful, if not apathetic and condescending, towards his minions.

** Even his Skeletek transformation in ''Revolution'' doesn't look pleasant. He becomes an equivalent of cybernetic Grim Reaper.



* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: The way ''Revolution'' executed how Keldor and Skeletor were the same person could easily be considered a stand-in for Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID)

* ThisIsUnforgivable: She treats Skeletor barging into her conversation with Hordak and boasting about their success as such. She doesn't kill him, but ''does'' threaten to do if he ever does something like this again.

Added DiffLines:

* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: YouDontLookLikeYou explains it in detail, but in ''Revolution'' Hordak looks pretty much nothing like he does in the ''Revelation'' prequel comics.


Added DiffLines:

** This can be chalked up to the fact that the animation team hadn't created Hordak's design yet at the time of ''Revelation'' and the prequel comics. It's also possible that Hordak used the Havoc Staff's influence to make himself look different in the false memories he implanted in Skeletor's mind.
