10 Most Useless Star Wars Characters

One of the strangest characters introduced in The Rise of Skywalker was Klaud.

Klaud is a Trodatome mechanic who was on board the Millennium Falcon during a Resistance mission to the Sinta Glacier Colony to gain intel from a First Order spy. After the Falcon was attacked by TIE Fighters during the mission, Klaud took it upon himself to fix the ship as best and as quickly as possible.

Apart from having only a few seconds of screen-time, what makes Klaud so useless is his design. Being a mechanic, it is essential to have arms to repair and replace ship parts and other devices. Bafflingly though, Klaud has no arms and he is only shown to stare at the sparking mechanisms on the Falcon closely, before the camera quickly pans away from him, leaving the audience completely perplexed as to how an armless alien will repair the Millennium Falcon.

If Klaud had arms, he likely would not be deemed a useless character, but since the creature designers working on The Rise of Skywalker decided to go out of their way to create an armless mechanic, it is only fair to call this laughably designed character completely and utterly useless at the one job he has.
