The Mandalorian is a deep well of great little characters and very weird guys. There’s the family that Mando saves and reunites in the second season’s second episode, there’s Nick Nolte’s Kuiil, and there’s even Grogu himself.

The first episode of season 3 added to this deep bench of weirdos with the tremendous Gorian Shard, a space pirate who looks like what would happen if Treebeard and Davy Jones had a kid. He may only be in the episode for a few seconds, but there’s plenty we can glean from his brief appearance, including the fact that we want to see him lose to Din Djarin a lot more often.
