Zxyl Bes'uliik is a non Force-sensitive Mandalorian currently serving as Regent of the Brotherhood. A genetically-altered Dathomirian Zabrak, he hails from an unknown world in the Outer Rim Territories and was adopted into Clan Bes'uliik - or Clan Iron Beast - as a Foundling at a young age following the disappearance of his Nightsister mother and mercenary father. Zxyl was raised by a Mandalorian mechanic and adept metallurgist on the moon of Concordia as his own flesh and blood. He was indoctrinated into the Mandalorian Creed adhering to the tenants of Mandalorian culture to prove his status as a Mandalorian, and the ancient Way of the Mandalore which required him to never remove his helmet around others as a means of shielding his identity. The half-breed learned everything from his father; arcane metallurgy, combat, advanced technical knowledge and skills, and the two became very close.
Zxyl was only a teenager when his small convert was eradicated by an organization of slavers hoping to subjugate the elite warriors into their service, forcing him on his own and teaching him to adapt and cover his tracks wherever he went - utilizing a custom die to randomize his movements. Zxyl sold his own exceptional abilities as an able bodied weaponsmith and mechanic to the highest bidder for several years, until he amassed enough wealth to purchase his own starship and chart a new path free of anyone's influence. Bes'uliik wandered the galaxy for over a decade, traveling to the likes of Corellia, Batu, Nar Shadaa, and even Coruscant as he honed his skillset and formed alliances, though he occasionally returned to Concordia and the ruined world Manda'yaim to pay his respects and search for fellow Mandalorians at what remained of the ancestral home of Clan Bes'uliik.
Sometime after 35 ABY the half-breed began hearing whispers of the Shroud Syndicate, a pirate organization surrounded in mystery. He began taking contracts from them, and after spending some time with the group, he discovered at least one other Mandalorian - they were part of a larger organization that he enlisted his services to. Through dedication and service he ascended through the ranks, serving as Praetor to the Regent and Proconsul of Taldryan, eventually earning the right to carry the Taldrya name as a Son of Taldryan. After a short hiatus he became Thane Skotos's true successor.
