She opposed Vizsla’s alliance with Darth Maul and Savage Opress, and later led members of the Death Watch loyal to her against those who remained loyal to Maul and his criminal allies. Following the Clone Wars, she briefly became Regent of Mandalore until her refusal to follow the newly appointed Emperor Palpatine resulted with Clan Saxon being placed in power. Siding with Clan Wren during the Mandalorian Civil War, believing that she had lost the right, she accepted the Darksaber from Sabine to lead their people once more as Regent of Mandalore after Sabine and their people convinced her that there was no other that could do it better; she would later lose the Darksaber to Moff Gideon. Five years following the Empire’s defeat, Bo-Katan would be approached by Din Djarin, who was searching for Jedi. In exchange for his assistance in taking down an Imperial freighter transporting weapons, she told him where to find Ahoska Tano, who had helped her decades prior, during the Siege of Mandalore.
Satine Kryze	Duchess of Mandalore, sister of Bo-Katan, and romantic interest of Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Eventually, Sabine destroyed the weapon with the Darksaber, causing an explosion that killed Saxon.
Paz Vizsla	Physically imposing Mandalorian warrior and member of the Tribe, who holds a grudge against the Empire due to their purge against the Mandalorian people. While he was initially at odds with Din Djarin because he accepted a mission from a remnant of the Empire led by Moff Gideon, he later assisted in his rescue of “The Child” from said remnant. However, this allowed Gideon to find the Tribe’s hideout and massacre most of its members. Vizsla was likely among the survivors, as his armor was not seen among those of the fallen Mandalorian warriors.

Formerly the Governor of Concordia, one of Mandalore’s moons, he secretly sided with Count Dooku during the Clone Wars and longed to restore the warrior heritage of Mandalore by overthrowing its pacifist government led by Duchess Satine. His many attempts to do so would failed and he eventually broke ties with the CIS. Vizsla later allied himself with the Sith Lords Darth Maul and Savage Opress, and together they recruited the Black Sun, Pyke Syndicate, and Hutt Clan to form a criminal alliance known as the Shadow Collective. After Vizsla ousted Duchess Satine with the help of the collective, he betrayed his allies (except the Death Watch) and had them imprisoned. Later, Maul escaped and challenged Vizla to a duel to determine who shall rule Mandalore. Vizsla accepted, but was ultimately no match for the Sith Lord, who executed him and took over Mandalore and the Death Watch.

Ursa Wren	Countess of Clan Wren and mother of Sabine Wren. Prior to the Empire’s occupation of Mandalore, she participated in the Siege of Mandalore under the command of Bo-Katan Kryze. When Sabine fled the Imperial Academy and spoke out against the Empire, Ursa and the rest of her family sided with the Empire instead.

I hear the Mandalorians have been wanderers, too, and that they were conquerors like us, and their god was war itself. And now—now they are not, and their worship of war itself has vanished because one of their leaders wanted things to be more civilized.“

―Nom Anor

The Mandalorian religion was the accumulated spiritual and mythological beliefs of the Mandalorian warrior culture. Like the Mandalorians themselves, their religion saw numerous changes throughout the course of history, with several concepts evolving or falling out of popular practice over time. The ancient Mandalorians and the culture’s Taung founders were intensely devout in their beliefs, forming a deeply religious society. Creation myths such as the Akaanati’kar’oya—the “War of Life and Death”—were viewed literally, and ritual combat was waged in worship of Kad Ha’rangir the destroyer god, who the Mandalorians believed represented change and was opposed by Arasuum, the stagnant sloth-god. This obsession with battle reached its pinnacle when the Mandalorians came to deify war itself, and believed that to wage war was to be divine.

Deities

                    Arasuum was a deity in the ancient Mandalorian religion. Known as the sloth-god, the Mandalorians viewed Arasuum as the personification of stagnation,who tempted the ancient clans to engage in idle consumption.Opposing Arasuum was the god Kad Ha’rangir, who embodied the universal opportunity for change and growth that destruction created. Mandalorian mythology held that Arasuum and Kad Ha’rangir waged an eternal war against one another.

The Mandalorians who believed in these ancient gods waged ritual warfare as a means of worship toward Kad Ha’rangir, whose ideals they served, taking on the name Mandalorian Crusaders as a reflection of the holiness embodied by the conflict they engaged in.By fighting wars in the destroyer god’s name, the Mandalorians sought to earn Kad Ha’rangir’s favor, and defied the temptations of Arasuum.

Type of deity-Sloth-god

                            Kad Ha’rangir was a deity in the ancient Mandalorian religion. Known as the destroyer god, the vigorous Kad Ha’rangir was viewed by the Mandalorians as the bringer of change and growth upon the universe. Kad Ha’rangir opposed the sloth-god Arasuum—the personification of idleness and stagnation—in a war that spanned eternity.

The ancient Mandalorians waged ritual warfare as a means of worship to Kad Ha’rangir, seeking his favor as they defied the temptations of idle consumption offered by Arasuum. These warriors became known as Mandalorian Crusaders, a reflection of the holiness embodied by the conflict they engaged in, and viewed their clans as Kad Ha’rangir’s chosen people.

Type of deity Destroyer god

                          Hod Ha’ran was a deity in the ancient Mandalorian religion. Known as a trickster god by the early Mandalorian people, Hod Ha’ran was viewed as an agent of the fickle nature of fortune.

Over time, worship  of Hod Ha’ran and the other Mandalorian gods, like Kad Ha’rangir the Destroyer and Arasuum the sloth-god, fell into decline.The Mandalorians turned to the singular worship of war itself for a time, before turning their backs on those beliefs as well as the centuries passed.However, Hod Ha’ran and the Mandalorian gods were not completely forgotten: millennia later, Death Watch founder Tor Vizsla spoke of Hod Ha’ran and the ancient gods in a manifesto he prepared,^[1] and by 19 BBY, the Mandalorian soldier Kal Skirata knew of their former place in Mandalorian mythology

Mandalorian armor

1. The wearer was protected from the majority of all blaster fire. Armor made of actual Mandalorian iron, which could also deflect blaster bolts, made it lightsaber-resistant.
2. The helmets almost always possessed a T-shaped visor and a sophisticated heads-up display (HUD).
3. Mandalorian warriors decorated their armor to reflect personal accomplishments, clan affiliation, or simply personal preference. They often repainted their armor to reflect rank, clan, and possibly the current terrain. They were also known to paint their armor in the traditional colors that represented specific causes the individual might currently be undertaking. The colors, however, did not always have a specific meaning. Sometimes they were just colors that the particular Mandalorian liked. Some Mandalorians wore pieces of armor to honor relatives, both dead and alive.

During the Clone Wars, Pre Vizsla was the leader of Death Watch, a Mandalorian splinter faction that opposed the planet’s pacifist government. He succeeded in taking over Mandalore and became Mand’alor and Prime Minister, but was killed shortly thereafter by Darth Maul.

During the Mandalorian Civil War against the Galactic Empire and Clan Saxon, Clan Vizsla rallied behind Bo-Katan Kryze of Clan Kryze, along with Clan Eldar, Clan Rook, Clan Wren, the Journeyman Protectors, and others, making Bo-Katan the new Mand’alor.

The statue of Tarre Vizsla, the ancient Mand’alor and Jedi

“I didn’t know Mandalorians developed a type of lightsaber.”
“We didn’t. This was one of a kind. Legend tells that it was created over a thousand years ago by Tarre Vizsla, the first Mandalorian ever inducted into the Jedi Order. After his passing, the Jedi kept the saber in their temple. That was until members of House Vizsla snuck in and liberated it. They used the saber to unify the people and strike down those who would oppose them. One time, they ruled all of Mandalore wielding this blade.“

―Kanan Jarrus and Fenn Rau, on the darksaber

Clan Vizsla was formed prior to the foundation of the modern Galactic Republic.During this time, Tarre Vizsla was inducted into the Jedi Order as the first Mandalorian to do so.As a Jedi, Tarre created the Darksaber, a unique black-colored lightsaber that became the symbol of leadership for House Vizsla.Eventually, Tarre became Mand’alor and led his fellow Mandalorians.After Tarre’s death, the saber was kept in the Jedi Temple until it was stolen members of House Vizsla who snuck in and liberated itduring the fall of the Old Republic. The members of House Vizsla used the Darksaber to unify the people and defeat those who opposed them, allowing them to rule all of Mandalore at one moment. During that time, the Darksaber was used to kill many Jedi.

The Nite Owls were an elite Mandalorian unit made up of female warriors led by Bo-Katan Kryze. When Bo-Katan joined Death Watch, the Nite Owls sided with the group and with its leader, Pre Vizsla. After Maul killed Vizsla in battle and proclaimed himself the new leader of Death Watch, the Nite Owls, like the rest of Death Watch, split in two, with members siding with either Maul or Bo-Katan. Those who joined Bo-Katan became part of the Mandalore resistance and fought against Maul’s Shadow Collective and his Mandalorian super commandos, even attempting to free Bo-Katan’s sister, the former Duchess Satine Kryze of Mandalore, whom they had formerly opposed due to her pacifist idealism.

Children of the Watch

“You are a clan of two.“

―The Armorer, to Din Djarin

A Mandalorian clan was formed in the New Republic Era. It was composed of a Force-sensitive foundling known as “the Child” and former bounty hunter Din Djarin, who served as its leader. The clan’s signet was the skull of a mudhorn and was bestowed upon them by the Armorer of the Tribe. The signet’s design was in reference to the creature that damaged Djarin’s original armor and that the Child had helped Djarin defeat on Arvala-7.

“I was a foundling. They raised me in the Fighting Corps. I was treated as one of their own.“

―Din Djarin

The Fighting Corps was a subgroup of the Children of the Watch. Din Djarin, a foundling rescued from a Separatist attack during the Clone Wars, was taken in and raised in the Fighting Corps.

“There is only one way. The Way of the Mandalore.“

―Din Djarin, to Bo-Katan Kryze

The Way of the Mandalore was a religion followed by some Mandalorians. The Children of the Watch were a Mandalorian cult who followed the Way and sought to reestablish the religion, which had since fallen out of mainstream Mandalorian society and become considered ancient by the time of the New Republic Era.

Who was the greatest mandalorian?

The Top 10 Greatest Mandalorians

Gar Saxon

Gar Saxon was a Mandalorian human male who served as a commander of the Mandalorian super commandos in Maul’s Shadow Collective during the Clone Wars and later as Imperial Viceroy and Governor of his homeworld of Mandalore during the reign of the Galactic Empire.

During the Clone Wars, Saxon was one of the two-man extraction team that rescued Maul from the Spire on Stygeon Prime and later commanded Maul’s ground forces during General Grievous’ invasion of the Collective base on Ord Mantell. He was also present during the Siege of Mandalore, commanding Maul’s forces along with Rook Kast during the invasion, where during the siege, he was responsible for executing the Mandolorian Prime Minister Almec on Maul’s orders. After the rise of the Empire, Saxon served as an Emperor’s Hand to Galactic Emperor Sheev Palpatine and was the leader of the Imperial Super Commandos until his death on Krownest in 2 BBY.

 Pre Vizsla

Pre Vizsla a human male Mandalorian warrior from the planet Mandalore and was the leader of the Mandalorian Death Watch faction during the Clone Wars. Vizla briefly achieved his goal and took the title of Mand’alor before he was killed by his former ally Darth Maul.Having achieved his goal, Vizsla turned against Maul, leading to a lightsaber duel to the death. In the end, Vizsla was defeated and executed by Maul, who claimed his one-time ally’s weapon—the Darksaber, a Jedi-Mandalorian relic of Clan Vizsla—and therefore leadership over all Mandalorians.

Dorjander Kace

Dorjander Kace was a male Human Jedi Master who was captured by the Mandalorian Crusaders during the Great Sith War and spent the remainder of the war in captivity. There, he fell in love with a Mandalorian named Varda. The two were expecting a child, but Varda fell victim to a Republic bombing attack launched by a Jedi. Kace was deeply pained by the loss, but after the conclusion of the war, he still returned to the Jedi Order and served with distinction, earning himself a seat on the Jedi High Council. When the Mandalorian Wars broke out and Jedi Knight Revan started vouching for the Jedi Order’s involvement in the conflict, Kace was firmly against the proposal, but the Council eventually approved Revan’s participation and Kace was forced to step down from the Council. Convinced that the Republic was corrupt beyond redemption, Kace was certain in the inevitability of the Mandalorian victory. He believed that with the guidance of the Jedi Order, the Mandalorians’ rule over the galaxy would be a better alternative to the Republic.

 Canderous Ordo

Canderous Ordo, later known as Mandalore the Preserver, was a Mandalorian of Clan Ordo who fought in the Mandalorian Wars from 3976 BBY to 3960 BBY. While serving with the Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders, he participated in several battles, earning significant glory and prestige with his bold tactics and leadership.At some point before the end of the Mandalorian Wars, Ordo married Veela, a fellow Mandalorian, but he left his wife behind when he left Clan Ordo and went into exile. With nothing to call his own but the honor of having fought in the war, Ordo became a mercenary and wandered the galaxy looking for further challenges.

Bo-Katan Kryze

Bo-Katan Kryze was a human female who was the leader of the Nite Owls and a lieutenant in Death Watch, a Mandalorian terrorist group, and later during the Imperial Era, became Mand’alor.

Bo-Katan Kryze was a Mandalorian human female who was the leader of the Nite Owls and a lieutenant in Death Watch, a terrorist group, and later during the Imperial Era, became Mand’alor. During the Clone Wars, Kryze’s sister, Satine, ruled as the Duchess of Mandalore, and Kryze sought to undo her pacifistic teachings, believing that Mandalore should take pride in its martial history. After Governor Pre Vizsla of Concordia was publicly exposed as the leader of Death Watch, the splinter group was exiled from the Mandalore system. In 19 BBY, Kryze and Vizsla discovered the Sith Lords Maul and Savage Opress. With the Sith, they plotted to reclaim Mandalore, and through Maul’s planning, united several criminal syndicates to form the Shadow Collective. Launching a takeover of Mandalore, Satine’s rule was overthrown, and Vizsla took control of the planet.

However, Maul challenged Vizsla, and the Sith Lord defeated him, taking the throne and appointing Prime Minister Almec as a puppet leader. Kryze and a group of Mandalorian loyalists refused to recognize Maul’s rule, and they liberated Satine from the royal prison, contacting Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi for help. Due to Mandalore’s neutrality, Kenobi was forced to come alone, and he was captured by Maul, who then killed Satine. When Kenobi was brought to the prison, Kryze and her rebels freed the Jedi, and Mandalore was swept into a civil war as Maul’s forces fought to reclaim him. Before Kenobi left the planet, Kryze requested that the Galactic Republic be informed of the events, hoping that a Republic invasion would result in Maul’s death. Less than a year later, Kryze’s desire was fulfilled, and the Republic laid siege to Mandalore, driving Maul from the planet. She then became Lady of House Kryze and Regent of Mandalore. However, she lost her position when she refused to follow the newly appointed Galactic Emperor, Palpatine and Clan Saxon took over.

Duchess Satine Kryze  The leader of Mandalore during the Clone Wars, Duchess Satine of Kalevala was a controversial figure. She longed to move Mandalore beyond its violent past and instituted a government that valued pacifism.

Satine Kryze was a Mandalorian human female duchess and the pacifistic leader of the New Mandalorians and the planet Mandalore during the waning years of the Galactic Republic. Ambitious and powerful, she longed to move Mandalore and its people past its violent warrior history. Her goals mired her in controversy throughout her leadership, facing opposition from conservative terrorist groups such as Death Watch. As the Republic’s stability became threatened by the pan-galactic Clone Wars, Kryze attempted in vain to keep Mandalore out of the conflict, ultimately falling victim to the forces that conspired to take her down.

Early into her rule over Mandalore, Kryze was forced to deal with an insurgency that cost an immense loss of life, leading her to align with the New Mandalorian movement and become a staunch pacifist. Kryze led Mandalore through reconstruction, helping Mandalore rebuild into a peaceful society. Her actions continued to face opposition from insurgent groups, most actively the terrorist group Death Watch, among whose members was Kryze’s sister Bo-Katan. While Mandalore maintained its peace and prospered under Kryze, the Republic began to fracture and entered war with the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Kryze chose not to choose a side in the conflict, making sure that Mandalore was neutral and becoming the leader of the Council of Neutral Systems. This move earned Kryze criticism from both the Republic and Confederacy, the latter of whom was backing Death Watch. The war brought to light corruption in many of those Kryze knew, but also brought her and her close friend Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi together to deal with the crises.

As the war raged on, Death Watch became affiliated with the rogue Sith Lord Maul and his apprentice Savage Opress, who brought together several crime families to aid them in defeating Kryze once and for all. Known as the Shadow Collective, Maul led Death Watch leader Pre Vizsla and their militia to Mandalore’s capital, tearing through the streets and causing chaos. Vizsla managed to shift support away from Kryze in order to stop the violence, and a defeated Kryze gave in. Kryze was deposed and arrested, though infighting among Death Watch brought about the death of Vizsla by Maul’s hand as well as the defection of Bo-Katan. Bo-Katan freed Kryze from prison, and the two reconciled in order to find a way to rid Mandalore of Maul. The rescue was short-lived, though before her recapture Kryze was able to contact Kenobi on Coruscant. Maul, having a lust for revenge against Kenobi for an incident from years earlier, murdered the captive Kryze in front of the Jedi. Kryze died in Kenobi’s arms, proclaiming her love for her friend as her government lay in ruin and Mandalore’s era of peace and pacifism ended.

 3, Din Djarin

 Din Djarin, commonly known as “the Mandalorian” or “Mando” for short, was a human male Mandalorian who worked as a bounty hunter during the New Republic Era. With his Mandalorian armor and distinctive beskar helmet, Djarin was both well-equipped and enigmatic—a stranger whose past was shrouded in mystery to others. Orphaned during the Republic Era and raised as a foundling by the Children of the Watch, he was trained to become a Mandalorian warrior and eventually joined the Tribe, which operated on Nevarro but was secretly part of the Children of the Watch cult. Djarin became battle-hardened, a man of few words, and a formidable hunter in an increasingly dangerous galaxy.

 2 Sabine Wren

Sabine Wren was a Mandalorian warrior, explosives expert, and graffiti artist — qualities that came in handy as one of the first rebels against the Empire. Part of the Ghost crew, Sabine used her gift for bomb-making to great effect against the Empire, and would often mark her work with spray-paint tags.

1 Jango Fett

Jango Fett was a human male Mandalorian bounty hunter and the clone template of the Grand Army of the Republic. Known as the best bounty hunter in the galaxy during the final years of the Galactic Republic, Fett was proficient in marksmanship as well as unarmed combat. The Mandalorian armor that he wore featured various weapons and gadgets, including a flamethrower, dual WESTAR-34 blaster pistols, and a jetpack. His personal starship was the Firespray-31-class patrol and attack craft Slave I.

From the planet Concord Dawn, Fett was a foundling of the Mandalorians and at one point fought in the Mandalorian Civil Wars before becoming a bounty hunter. Prior to the Clone Wars, the Sith Lord Darth Tyranus hired Fett to serve as the genetic foundation of an army secretly bred on the extragalactic world of Kamino. His DNA spawned millions of clone troopers who shared his face, voice, and were trained to become soldiers. As part of his payment, Fett was given an unaltered clone whom he raised as his son, Boba Fett. In the last days of the Separatist Crisis, Fett was involved in the failed plot to assassinate Senator Padmé Amidala on Coruscant. The Jedi Order investigated the incident, forcing Fett to leave the Kaminoan homeworld after he was confronted by Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Kenobi tracked Fett to Geonosis where he discovered the bounty hunter’s connection with Count Dooku and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Fett fought against the Jedi assault team during the First Battle of Geonosis, and was killed by Jedi Master Mace Windu in 22 BBY. His legacy survived not only through the millions of clone troopers that formed the backbone of the Republic Military, but also Boba, who became a bounty hunter like his father before him. By the era of the Galactic Empire, Boba possessed the same set of Mandalorian armor worn by Jango, its appearance having been altered significantly.
