Summary Qimir/the Stranger proved to be one of the best aspects of The Acolyte because of the fresh take on the Sith he brings to Star Wars. The most powerful Sith have long been fan favorites in Star Wars movies and TV shows. Indeed, the villains, the Sith in particular, are among Star Wars' best characters, in part because of their complex story arcs, but also because of their raw power.
The Stranger Is Seeking More Than Just Power Close Qimir seems very concerned with the Jedi inhibiting his way of life , which could be due to his history with his former Jedi master, Vernestra Rwoh. Although the exact details haven't been revealed, it's clear that Qimir fell to the dark side and left the Jedi Order at some point. Moreover, his scar suggests they had a pretty nasty confrontation before he left.
After all, Vernestra said, "You're alive?" in The Acolyte's finale when she sensed Qimir on Brendok, suggesting their encounter was so brutal that she assumed he had died in the battle. Qimir's sudden need to pull his helmet on, and the fear on his face before he did so, also suggests that Vern may have actively tried to kill him because he turned to the dark side.
This Sith Breaks The Mold Of Masculinity Close The Stranger proved particularly interesting because of his treatment of Osha following The Acolyte episode 5. Although that episode was arguably the show's bloodiest, even in light of the witches of Brendok, Qimir's behavior changed entirely by episode 6. In fact, this transformation began even before that when he happened upon Osha unconscious in the woods and draped his cape over her like a blanket and rubbed her arm.
