One of the Free Companies of Mandalore, Ge'tal Gaan are among the premiere mercenary organisations in the galaxy. Their success stems from their state of the art technology, willingness to take on nearly any job and their charismatic leader, Mav Ordo. The Ge'tal Gaan deviate from the standard concept of a mercenary group with their fundamental loyalty to the Mandalorian Ordo and their reverence for Canderous Ordo (Mandalore the Preserver/Te Taylir Mand'alor). Although Ordo loyalists, Ge’tal Gaan are not necessarily restricted to that clan; it is fair to assume that most Ge’tal Gaan are indeed of the Ordo Clan, however, they do accept others from different corners of the galaxy.

Induction

A unit member's armor.

"You all join on the understanding that you never leave. Is that clear?"

―Mav Ordo

Ge’tal Gaan have high standards of excellence for every member and conduct rigorous testing before contemplating the acceptance of a potential recruit. They operate on the policy of not what they can give a member of their Company, but what the member can contribute to the Company, be it a skill in high explosives, being able to provide decent sniper overwatch during a blizzard or even just a knack for making a good tiingilar. Whatever their talent, the prospective member is expected to have worked that out on their own before petitioning to join the Ge’tal Gaan.

Another potential way of gaining membership is to be sponsored by an existing member, however this method is rare. Many of the rank and file of the Ge’tal Gaan wouldn’t want to attach their name to an outsider for fear of looking shoddy or unworthy by association.

Once their application has been approved, inductees are then branded on the left shoulder with a five-fingered hand (regardless of species) and are considered members for life. The only way you leave is in a body bag.
