Unit History
The Birth of Clan Ordo
During the Clone Wars, many fierce battles were fought across the Outer Rim. Mandalore, home of the Mandalorians, was the central point for many of these conflicts. The attempted capture of Senator Padme Amidala in 19 BBY was perhaps the most devastating; Darth Sidious tasked the Mandalorian Protectors under the command of Mandalore the Resurrector with capturing the Senator, but the Sith intended to double-cross them; when the Mandalorian Protectors landed, they were ambushed by Jedi, and the only survivors were Tobbi Dala, Fenn Shysa, and the Resurrector himself. The Protectors were slowly rebuilt thanks to the work of Fenn Shysa, but many never forgave Sidious for his betrayal, and split from Shysa’s group to form a separate Clan. They named themselves Clan Ordo, a tribute to the original Clan Ordo, active during the Jedi Civil War of 3959-3956 BBY.
Abandoning the Fett
In 23 ABY, the Mandalorian named Boba Fett became Mand’alore, replacing Fenn Shysa and ascending to the leadership of the Mandalorian Protectors. Under Fett’s leadership, the Mandalorian Protectors played a key part in the Yuuzhan Vong War- first fighting for the Vong, then switching sides after the Vong attacked Mandalore. However, despite the reputation that Fett commanded across the galaxy, some Protectors were unhappy with the machinations of their leader and his lack of leadership. A group of these Protectors, angry at Fett’s willingness to maintain relations with Luke Skywalker’s New Jedi Order, splintered away from Fett’s Protectors and joined Clan Ordo, bolstering the ranks of the outcast Clan.
Growth and Development
A true Mandalorian is any creature, regardless of species, who can follow the Resol'nare. With that in mind, Clan Ordo welcomed many representatives from other species provided they could prove themselves worthy of the name Mandalorian. Squads were assembled not by species or by blood-bonds but by technical aptitude and combat effectiveness, leading to the creation of such notable squads as Shuk'orok and the Orar Kom’rk. Beside these warriors stood [TEAM TITLE HERE!]
The Squad
Trandoshan Leader

Taakur, leader of (team title here)
The de-facto leader of (team title here) due to his commanding presence and ferocious melee combat skills, Taakur is a fearsome warrior. Brought up on a prison colony, his youth was hard and brutal, with the Trandoshan forced to fight for every scrap of food and to establish his place in the hierarchy. The result was to breed in him a ferocious warrior instinct and a deep, burning anger for his captors. However, a way out of his harsh life came from an unexpected source- Mandalorian mercenaries from Clan Ordo, who attacked the colony in order to free one of their brothers, held within. The young Trandoshan took advantage of the confusion to escape and stole onto the Mandalorian ship.
He was soon found, but the Mandalorians were amused by the young Trandoshan and offered to drop him off at the nearest habitable planet. Encouraged by the first signs of compassion that he'd received since birth, he quickly tried to make himself useful to the Mandalorians, seeking to learn their language and customs and begging them to let him stay on the ship. Over time, the Mandalorians came to see him as one of their own, and the Trandoshan was granted a full suit of armour and formally recognised as a Mandalorian of Clan Ordo, taking the name Taakur.
Taakur's fierce fighting instinct served him well, and he was soon assigned to (team title here) under the command of a Mandalorian named Hren Vau. During a routine mission following the end of the Yuuzhan Vong War, the squad were ambushed by a remnant faction of Vong and Hren Vau was killed. Taakur took charge of the unit and led them out of the ambush- for his success, the rest of the squad marked him as their leader.
