"Aliit ori'shya tal'din"

―Family is more than blood

The Mandalorian known as the Soul Harvester, has been striking it rich for over three decades as a Bounty Hunter. The galaxy at large is his hunting ground and the inhabitants therein are his quarry. It matters little to him who they are, where they come from, or which mystical deity gives them power. Above all else, he is loyal and dedicated to self preservation with little to no desire for friendships outside of his hand-picked crew or Clan. Aboard his Flagship, Basilisk II, his pistols are always at the ready and his ever hungry bank account eagerly awaits satiation.

The Book Of Juda

Crease The Spine

"This book is one of vengeance, hatred, redemption, and conflict. The chapters within are but a glimpse into his story. In writing this tome, his hope was to not only educate through the tales of his adventures and exploits, but to inspire and encourage those who feel hopeless. Wipe away the dirt from the pages and let the lessons begin."

―Drexel

Chapter I: New Dawn

Concord Dawn

Born in the Outer Rim on the Mandalorian influenced world of Concord Dawn, Juda Graves was the product of true love. His father, Jonsa Graves was a Constable of the Journeyman Protectors directly in service to Fenn Rau before defecting in support of, who he thought was a more formidable leader, Gar Saxon. His mother on the other hand was a humble tiller of soil and took advantage of Concord Dawn's agricultural roots. She was a passionate woman and loyal to Mandalorian tradition being a direct descendant of one of the oldest Mandalorian clans, Valoon.

Chapter II: Squalor

Being of Mandalorian stock, Juda grew up under the tenants of the Creed and was expected to follow this set of guidelines or risk exile, even at a young age. He was born and raised as a warrior and would typically clash with those who began to transition and develop a more pacifistic way of life. This began to stir resentment as he studied the old way. His father, always away on missions he was never allowed to discuss, Juda was reared and trained by his mother. Some labeled her a crazy shaman as she still worshipped the deities of her people and concocted healing poultices and tonics from the crops that she would grow. While this life was not one of great wealth, the knowledge and ambition she passed on to her son was priceless. Still very much a warrior, her skills with edged weapons and hand to hand were unrivaled by many in their community. She would often say -

"There is no greater honor than to directly make contact with your enemy. Sword and fist are passionate while blasters are clumsy and cowardly."

―Anasha Valoon

Whether she was right or wrong, is open for debate, but much of Juda's training as a child was centered around close quarters combat and traditional Mandalorian ideals. He was always taught to be bold, to follow his passions, and to rely on his wits, especially when in combat. This would engineer a resourceful and ambitious individual that was both cunning and calculated, driven in all walks of life.

Chapter III: The Pits

As a right of passage. When Juda turned fifteen, Anasha allowed Juda's uncle, Vor Salan, to take her son under his wing. Unlike Anasha, Vor would not go easy on his nephew. His brother, Jonsa had gone missing and was thought to be dead. Therefore, honor would demand that Salan teach Juda as if he were his own.

Less diplomatic than his brother, Vor was a hard-nosed warrior who made a name for himself as a gladiator before striking it rich as a Bounty Hunter. Fighting was all that he knew so in order to sharpen Juda's skills, he too would be fed to the hounds of the Slaughterhouse. But where Vor was skeptical at first, at the age of sixteen, Juda had managed to impress him with his first bout when he faced down two Vornskrs and had managed to kill both of them with a make-shift knife. While Juda came out on top in the fight for survival, he didn't leave unscathed as one of the beasts took his left eye, it would later be replaced with a cybernetic.

Standing victorious, the crowd chanted "darasuum", which in the Mandalorian tongue meant (eternal).

That was a moniker that would stick with him throughout his career in the arena. For four years he fought the scum of the galaxy, creatures that were honored by his people, and other Mandalorians who sought to dethrone him as the champion. However none could and he would retire at the age of twenty, undefeated.

Pleased with the growth of his nephew, Vor Salan knew that the true test couldn't be found in an arena fighting hand picked opponents, rather, in the galaxy filled with unknown factors.

True resourcefulness could only be revealed in the face of adversity. The boy would become a Bounty Hunter. Not just because he was broke, surviving off of the meager wages of a prize-fighter. But because, in order to survive on his own, he would need to forge alliances, meet contacts, test his mettle when the deck wasn't stacked in his favor, and see the galaxy for what it truly was. A melting pot of diversity with opportunities ripe for the picking.
