Mandalorian History - Timeline

Why the separate posts? You can edit and include them all in fewer, you know.

There were several Mandos in KOTOR: Jagi, who challenged Ordo; that freelancer on Manaan.

Echanis, led by a High Protector, according to KOTOR equipment desrciption, could have some possible friction with Mandos, if done right.

 

"Part IX: Darth Revan Rising
Time frame: 3,963 B.B.Y.
Period name: Knights of the Old Republic

It is a period of turmoil in the Galaxy. The fierce Mandalorian warrior race begins the MANDALORIAN WAR by viciously and simultaneously attacking three quadrants of Republic space. As the battle rages on, Jedi Master REVAN moves surreptitiously between unknown sectors, scouting for potential strongholds to withstand the attacks. He soon discovers the shadowy Malachor V, a planet listed by Mandalorian scholars as "forbidden" to step foot on. The reason for this soon becomes clear as Revan is almost devoured by primal Sith forces on the world's surface. Revan's will allows him to feed on (and not be consumed by) the power of the dark side. Revan develops an evil but brilliant plan: Using the dark power of Malachor V, he will seduce an army of Jedi, completely loyal to him alone. He will then turn the planet's evil power against the Mandalorian army in battle, luring them to his stronghold and destroying them completely. A stronghold is immediately constructed.

Meanwhile on Dantooine, the small Jedi academy overseen by Master Vodo-Siosk Baas is shocked to learn that a lone Jedi Padawan has disobeyed a direct order from Jedi Master ATRIS, a prominent Jedi on the Council. This single student has left behind the relative safety of the training grounds to fight alongside the Jedi loyal to Master Revan. But this young one, like the other Jedi brethren, is unaware of the tremendous dark side power wielded by Revan and the terrible secrets of Malachor V. Revan's power continues to grow, and he secretly strengthens his stronghold, hiding it even from his apprentice, DARTHMALAK. Soon, the evil force infecting the planet became the FORGE for Darth Revan's shock troops; the feared SITH ASSASSINS - fallen Jedi, tempted and cajoled by the evil of Malachor V, and under Revan's evil command. Soon, a shadow academy to the one on Korriban is constructed; and an evil enclave mirroring the Jedi academy on Dantooine is complete. "

So it wasn't the JEDI that defeated the Mandalorians, but it was the Sith. It took Darkside power to defeat the greatest army in the Galaxy. Thank you chronicle for making Mandalorians seem even more powerful.

 

coool thx, great info, will include it immedeately

 

but one thing, why was there no Mandalore until KOTOR II like stated in Mandalores Bio I posted?
And how did he become Mandalore then? Had he to get the mask of his precedessor? the one Revan killed. Did revan take the mask, keep it or hide it? was it lost?

 

There undoubtedly *was* a Lord Mandalore prior to KOTOR II, since HK-47 was sent on an assasination run following the wars after the new lord...evidently they've kept the command lineage running smoothly over the intervening years.

As for the mask...unknown. Given Revan's flamboyant penchanteries bordering on the nigh-foppish, it wouldn't be shocking to learn that he mounted it over his wet bar amidst his harquebus collection.

Bear with me, but just because they defeated the Mandaloriians, doesn't mean they necessarily killed their leader, yes?

Maybe the mission HK 47 went on , was one Revan thought would make the war complete...killing the Mandalore that started the War. After HK 47 does him in, ther is no Mandalore.

 

A voice shouts out from the crowd "Mandalore!" when your Bendak Starkiller commences, but not always. I doubt it has little relevance, as Ordo did call themselves Mandalores at times.

 

Well... so Revan didn´t kill the Mandalore, but later send HK-47 to do it. If so, he needed a reason. Maybe the Mandalorians were up to something. And he stopped them, or delayed their plans. So they didn´t have another Mandalore after the kill. Or not in public, and the next Mandalore was in secret, hiding.

Maybe even the Mandalorians thought that the Sith had betrayed them? Planing against them. This could be possible if in the KOTOR II storyline, you have your Jedi Main character returning from mandalorian space with the Mandalore as an ally! And you are on a yourney to defeat the sith, save the Jedi order and republic. (Light Side version of KOTOR II).
Dark side version, would be more difficult, their the Mandalore would still help the Sith.

First they loose to Ulic Quel Droma who then returns to the light side of the force. The Sith flee in the Sith Wars and leave the Mandalorians alone against the Republic.

Then they reemerge and want to profit from the Mandalorians doings after the Mandalorian Wars, ending the Mandalorian Wars at Malachor V, betraying their former allies. (I speak of Sith in general, knowing that Revan was a Jedi first and had different goals that the major Sith survivors)

 

KOTOR II confirms:=SPOILER=

Canderous Ordo is the Mandalore in your Party!

It is his voice and he talks about Clan Ordo, it is HIM!

 

Yup. You realize that right straight from the git-go. His voice is unmistakeable.

(Hell, his "Clan Ordo still lives!!" rant against Kreia in the Dxun hangar alone confirms it, I'd say. )

 

Well Revan did kill Mandalore, and HK was defeated by Mandalore.

 

I know this is kinda of an old thread i think but in KOTOR2 Doesnt Mandalore {Canderous} say he went back to Malachor V to get the Armour. Or something along those lines. eh he said something about it when i was at Dantooine [man i can spell that] when i used Mandalore to talk to some of the Mandalorian Mercs.

 

I am still waiting for the KOTOR2 PC version, hope somebody will help you^^ and thx for getting my old topic back to the top again^^

 

Basilisk: I was never able to get anything out of Mandalore, but I do remember someone saying that Revan TOLD Canderous to find the Armor and Mask. Didn't say where though.

 

Maybe Revan found it, took it and hid it someplace^^ or took it as souvenir! he had a mask of unknown origin in KOTOR 1 when he was a darksider, before the jedi council caught and turned him. maybe that was the mask? or an updated version of the mask, and the Jedi took it of him.

just my very unlikely specualation, don´t believe it myself

 

Yeah concidering both Mask look completely different.

Plus I think it was later said that Revan's mask was of his own creation.

 

A voice shouts out from the crowd "Mandalore!" when your Bendak Starkiller commences, but not always. I doubt it has little relevance, as Ordo did call themselves Mandalores at times.

That's not a voice from the crowd. That's Bendak himself.

All Mandalorian warriors you play against are capable of saying that. I played against some on Dantooine and the red guy shouted for For Mandalore!"

Which is what Bendak is saying

For Mandalore!

 

It's a battle chant they say before going into battle.
