"Here's why you can't exterminate us, aruetii. We're not huddled in one place—we span the galaxy. We need no lords or leaders—so you can't destroy our command. We can live without technology—so we can fight with our bare hands. We have no species or bloodline—so we can rebuild our ranks with others who want to join us. We're more than just a people or an army, aruetii. We're a culture. We're an idea. And you can't kill ideas—but we can certainly kill you."
-Mandalore the Destroyer
Conflict is necessary for growth - this is a key Mandalorian principle, and for those out there who are looking for a family, looking for a cause and are ready and willing to thrown down. The Mandalorian Elite is the place for you.
Still not sure - look what unique traits the Mandalorians have to offer:
- Diversity: Mandalorians are extremely diverse. They have no class, race, or gender affiliations. They are neither good guys, or bad guys, yet they can be both. Their culture spans as far back as 4,000 bby, and some of the toughest and most notable warriors in the history of the Galaxy have been Mandalorians at some point or another. They are known from every corner of the Galaxy, and as much as they may seem similar, every single one is completely unique.
- Family: The Mandalorians are a family of brothers and sisters. You can be either born into the culture, or be adopted into it. Every Mando is a brother or sister of the rest, and are treated as equals, from the smallest child, to the eldest patriarch, they are vod.
- Honor: There is a great sense of honor in being a Mandalorian. Even the smugglers, bounty hunters, and assassins are honor bound in some fashion or another. They may be ruthless killing machines, or grizzled engineers, but they all have honor. It separates us, makes us renowned for a code of honor that we carry with us till our death. The Mandalorian honor is not so different from Norse mythology or that of a Viking mentality. The Manda is their goal, that Valhalla like state that spurred on the Celts of old. The Mandalorians eat, fight, live, and die with honor.
- Language: Many languages exist in the Galaxy, and most are native tongues for various species, or a culmination of languages to make it easier to understand. The Mandalorians have a unique language that is culture based and has been taught to countless people, and used in countless worlds. Mando'a can be spoken with family, with vod and vode alike, and understood by those who, like you, have become Mandalorians.
- Allegiance: Mandalorians are the one faction on this board that is unique in that you can be a Mandalorian and be in almost any other faction that you choose to. While you can belong to only the Mandalorian faction, you can also be a Mando and be in the Republic, Protectorate, Rebels, Techno Union...and so forth. A Mando is a Mando, and unless you completely disregard the call of the Mand'alor, and fight against the vode, then you are always a Mando.
Hear the drums of war, feel the spirit of the vode, and become the most iconic symbol of a warrior in the Galaxy.
OYA!
