Orko became one of Adam's closest friends in fact, Orko knows that Adam is secretly He-Man, although it is never revealed how he found out. Stuck on Eternia, Orko was made Royal Buffoon by the King of Eternia in gratitude for having saved his son. However, he lost his pendant in the process after colliding with a tree. He appeared in the Tar Swamp, where he found a young Prince Adam and his pet, Cringer, at the time a tiger cub, and saved them both from dying in the tar. Orko came to Eternia when a "cosmic storm" accidentally transported him there. The sheer number of things he stores inside the hat is impossibly great, suggesting that the hat itself is a bag of holding under some kind of magic spell. In addition to his magic spells, Orko also stores a plethora of items, some useful, some not-so-useful, inside his hat. In the 2002 series, Orko is shown to be a slightly more competent magician, although he indicates he lost a wand when he arrived on Eternia that enhanced his abilities. However, this premise is not consistently applied in the Filmation series in some episodes Orko is equally amateurish on Trolla, and in others his uncle Montork is a powerful magician on both worlds. The laws of nature on Trolla are vastly different than those on Eternia, so although Orko is an accomplished wizard on his homeworld, his spells usually backfire or malfunction when he helps He-Man in adventure or provides entertainment in the Royal Palace. Orko's face was designed in production drawings but never appeared in the series when his clothing is removed, he is always obscured. Little more than Orko's hands, ears, and eyes are ever seen by the audience, as Trollan custom only rarely permits the revelation of one's face. Like all Trollans, Orko appears to be a diminutive blue humanoid, capable of floating in midair, whose appearance is almost completely hidden beneath a robe, hat, and scarf. Orko is a " Trollan", a race of beings from the extradimensional world of Trolla.
