30 Greatest Star Wars Characters Of All Time
5. Yoda
The wisest Jedi of them all, Yoda once sat at the head of the Jedi Order. A lover of peace and the Galaxy's beauty, the little green warrior led the Jedi through the re-emergence of the Sith and the horrors of the Clone Wars. He lost his former padawan to the Dark Side, and felt the deaths of his friends around the Galaxy when Palpatine executed Order 66.
His emotional arc with Luke Skywalker in Empire Strikes Back remains a true stand-out in the series, and his wise, funny, cute but intimidating demeanor made him an instant fan favourite. A lovable mentor, Yoda may be small, but he towers over many of the characters around him.
