Te Kisol

The Great Purge

The Relationship between the Galactic Empire, and the Mandalorians, was what some would say, beneficial. The Mandalorians allowed the Galactic Empire mining rights on Mandalore, creating an uneasy, though somewhat functional relationship between the two. This however began to change, as relations quickly began to sour on both sides. Long story short, in the year  2 BBY, The Empire conquered the planet Mandalore. To prevent the secrets to forging Beskar armor from falling into Imperial hands, a large organized group of Mandalorians, harbored Countless Goran and Mandalorians who wished to escape Imperial rule, onto a small fleet of merchant and carrier ships and fled from Mandalore.

“Te Kisol” (The Few)

After having several vicious fights with Imperial Super Commandos, it was clear that their home planet of Mandalore would be one of two things, either a planet they once knew to be their current home or their grave sight. With few options left for those who remained free, a conglomerate of Mandalorians boarded the few, small ships they had, packing only what was necessary, and as many Goran, they could gather, and fled. This, however, would not be the end of their torment, as the Imperials remained hot on their trail.

Several weeks into their journey through the vast cosmos, the fleet was intercepted again by an imperial task force sent to kill them, and capture all living Goran, leading to most of the Mandalorian fleet of small transport ships being destroyed in the encounter. A brief but intense battle ensued, but most of the Mandalorian ships were destroyed or boarded. Those who could out pilot the Imperial Tie-Fighters scatter in time before imperial ships could concentrate fire on the few surviving vessels. Those who did manage to survive this engagement had entered hyperspace with the main flagship or had scattered randomly, hoping that the imperials wouldn’t waste their assets hunting down the small parties that broke off.

The year was now 7 ABY, and after hopping from planet to planet, either leaving due to its lack of recluseness or because of imperials, they finally arrived at the planet came to be known to them as ‘Vantoria.’ Several years have passed since their escape from the jaws of death, their numbers remained stagnant, so long as they remained secretive, and trusted no one in the worlds they traveled. The few gains they did make, came in the form of new members, those who ‘The Few,’ saw with potential to become Mandalorian.

After touching down on Vantoria, their first objective would be to find a place for hiding. Luckily, the planet they landed on afforded many places to hunker down, such as the dense forests, and mountains. They now reside in camp “Victoria”.

Mandalorian Code Of Honor and Culture

“The Resol'nare”

"You will raise your young as Mandalorians — and defend them. You will wear our armor, and speak our language. And you will serve the clan, and rally when called. These are the Resol'nare — the Six Actions — sacred to our movement. Do them — and you may live to call yourselves Mandalorians!"

Gender Roles: Mandalorian’s view on Gender differ from the way most other cultures see it. In Mandalorian culture, women are expected to be able to perform the same duties as men, with equal efficiency. This, in turn, explains why Mandalorians prefer women who are more capable, than physically attractive. Despite these views, in their daily lives, women are still expected to remain in their homes for the most part, if raising children. Men would be expected to hunt and work their jobs, providing for the family.

Mandalorian mothers are responsible for raising their child on how to be a good Mandalorian until age 8, teaching them about:


 * Clan Loyalty
 * Discipline
 * Courage
 * Respect
 * Basics of Martial Combat
 * etc.

Mandalorian fathers don’t begin seriously raising their children until after the age of 8, where their fathers take them for basic military and survival training. Once again, both boys and girls went through this, as gender did not matter as much to the Mandalorians

The Ver'goten is a trial of passage, which every child is expected to pass if they wish to be recognized as true Mandalorians. The trials these children are put through will put all of the skills they learned from their parents to the test. They are able to begin their trial at age 13.
