Suy'cuy Gar! Or in basic, Hello and welcome to the Role playing guide to Office play as one of the most fiercest warriors of the galaxy, the mandalorians. (Note: I'm only making this guide as tin't find other guides whether none were fabricated or got out of date, and so I idea of making a helpful guide to most beginners
) Note that this is a guide based on SWTOR and legends lore, canon of keeping helmets on all times will not exist in this guide.
Introduction
A mandalorian are a nomadic group of association-based people consisting of members from multiple species and multiple genders, all spring past a common civilisation.
In their early years, Mandalorian culture revolved around boxing, with war being a source of honor and pride in their community. The leader of the Mandalorians was known as the Mand'alor.
How things are at present in SWTOR Shae Vizla is at the current time Mand'alor, and is at moment allied with the alliance. But we're here to talk on a role play guide to begin your path as a mandalorian and to follow the way of the warrior.
How does i become a mandalorian?
There are iii ways of one to become a mandalorian, either you lot were born into a mandalorian clan, adopted to a mandalorian clan as a kid, or adopted in as an developed, as mandalorians take and train any age, but they are not mandalorian yet simply are known equally Immature warriors, or new bloods, the young warriors must train to know the cultures traditions, code of honour, the resol'nare, in one case a young warrior learns all this and has passed in that location Verd'goten they're considered as mandalorians and adults (even if your mandalorian passed at ten years old, is considered a respnsible adult and my drink with his/her brothers and sisters).
Mando'a
Mando'a, sometimes referred to simply equally Mandalorian, was the primary language spoken past the Mandalorian civilisation. Elements of Mando'a were taken from the language of the aboriginal Taungs of Coruscant, from which the civilization stemmed, evolving over fourth dimension to get something unique.
The Resol'nare
The Resol'nare, or Six Actions when translated from Mando'a into Galactic Basic Standard, were the cardinal tenets of Mandalorian life. They consisted of wearing armor, speaking the language, defending oneself and family, raising your children as Mandalorians, contributing to the association's welfare, and when chosen upon by the Mand'alor, rallying to their cause.
Tradition dictated that anyone who wished to exist considered Mandalorian were to abide by these guidelines and live these deportment daily. Mandalorians whom did not follow the Resol'nare were considered to exist dar'manda, someone who was ignorant of their Mandalorian heritage and insufficient of their Mandalorian soul. The status of dar'manda was widely feared within Mandalorian society due to the belief information technology meant they were soulless and had no place in the Manda, the Mandalorian afterlife.
Your Mandalorian
To offset things off, we'll demand to know more about your mandalorian, and of what Clan he/she serves. But however based upon story and role play rules of non being tied to any key character or group in SWTOR, we can non be autonomously of any existing clans, so case we can not be apart of clan Fett, Vizla, Ordo, Lok, Kelborn or whatever exsisting clans due to take a chance of mixing in with the main game story, so it'southward advised yous brand your own clan, whether that character would be apart of it, or is leading it equally it'due south Alor.
If your Mandalorian is also to be a hunter/mercenary, then he or she is allowed to hunt bounties, every bit this is considered acceptable as hunting and seeking a challange, only the mandalorian must remain bound to at that place code of accolade, and credits they receive must contribute to the clans welfare or for your survival.
Equipment and Armour
For ones equipment, mandalorians are well known to exist armed and equipped with diverse of tech, and weapons from vibro knives, vibroblades, staffs, and blasters, and even too jetpacks. Also they clothing all times their armour, as a mandalorians armour is like their second skin, they proceed it on all times, simply exceptions to remove ones armour is when resting in your ain room, home or starship, in your clan billet or recovering in medical bay.
The armour is likewise important as based by it'southward design, some would like to go along things basic and simple, some like to creative, but in recommendation, armour pieces as Dune stalker jacket and sith cultist lower robes arn't acceptable, as mandos wont wear jackets or skirts. but all the same when role playing you can non habiliment commander vizla'due south arour set, as only mand'alor wears information technology, the armour maybe adequate if using a different helmet, annihilation mandalorian design.
For the Armour, the common known material to brand mandalorian armour is beskar, but due to how rare it is to larn it, information technology'southward non possible to start with full beskar, just it's neither impossible, as a piece of beskar can be rewarded and earn't if a mandalorian achieves a swell goal and is rewarded by their Alor. for now a common material most mandalorians use is Durasteel. (Notation: Only mandalorians know on how to smelt and forge beskar, no outsider can know or learn how to, even if tried chances are they'll ruin the beskar making information technology useless, mandalorians tin not share or teach a outsider on how to forge beskar).
Acceptable races
By mandalorian civilization, mandalorians take any race to their culture, only however we'll need to remember outside the box, as while that is a option to all races, in that location are some who will not take this option based upon their own civilisation, religion or reason, the races that can't/wont be mandalorian and why.
-Cathar: As over 3 hundred years ago during the events of the mandalorian wars, the mandalorians attacked the Cathar home world of Cathar, killing every Cathar on the planet, about placing the people to extinction. The Cather to this solar day hate the mandalorians based upon the history, and there rivalry notwithstanding grows.
-Sith Pureblood: While there can be some born not forcefulness sensitive, a Sith pureblood is nonetheless spring and loyal to the Empire. Of course in that location are some who've managed to flee the Empire, but those purebloods are most probable to be either hunted down to serve the Empire or to be killed.
-Miraluka: As the Miraluka are a race of force sensitives, they only follow the way of the force, to exist either Jedi or Sith.
Can Mandalorians ally not-Mandalorians?
Yes.
As a mandalorian may seek love to someone who is not bound by mandalorian civilization, but however the married partner does not become mandalorian just because they're married, nor can they vesture mandalorian armour, but are immune to larn the language and must take the Resol'nare.
Can yous exist a strength sensitive Mandalorian?
No.
The mandalorians see the force as a weakness non a strength, equally knowing it is a other beings power, non ones true strength, and even if allowed, mandalorian have zero logic on how to train a force user. In most sense, if a Mandalorian or young warrior were to be adopted or born force sensitive, the mandalorian or immature warrior would be exiled, but are not to be titled Dar'manda, only more just as a outsider. (Note: Aye, their were the mandalorian knights in the mandalorian wars. Just they were Jedi who defected. And the Mandalorians only seen them equally Jedi wearing armour, non true mandalorians).
Alignment
Due to Bioware's fault upon separating the story due the chain events of KOTFE/KOTET and war on Iokath and who the alliance commander is, most struggle to say what is the catechism as it's at this indicate the game has lost it's canon due to four different paths.
Merely equally Mand'alor is with the brotherhood, the recommended and safest and logical selection (based on timeline and lore) Is to accept the mandalorians remain neutral, or helping the Sith Empire, as by lore logic and timeline there's no logic on to why the mandalorians would side with the republic at this current time line. Of course Mand'alor is the main leader, but it'due south more the case scenario for mando function players to non miss out.
Final note
Mandalorian role play is just as serious every bit Jedi and Sith role play, we do non linger in Cantina's making claims or boasting of hunts and achievements, as nosotros're warriors of honor seeking honor and glory and a worthy challange, non drink the well-nigh largest ale without getting beverage. Then get out there, seek out a worthy challange, and bring award and glory to your proper noun and Clan.
Hope this guide has shared some help for Mandalorian roleplay Skillful hunting, and Ret'urcye mhi.
