I've been debating as to whether or not to create a Mandalorian (3 of my 4 characters on here are only part-time and "fill holes", thinking about another full timer)
My question is rather simple.
Other than the Fetts, Djarin, and Bo Katan... any real Lore out there? I mean, I know a bit about the Nightwatch, and the whole "this is the way" arc, but I want to do this "old school" and want to do some reading first.
Any help would be appreciated.
I don't know how old school we're talking, because my initial craving was for Neo Crusaders (the boys in blue... And red, and maybe green) that came
right after the Taungs, the original Mandalorians.
But I mention that because at the time, I knew nothing about the Mandalorians, like, I just found out Star Wars existed a few months ago. That's thanks to

who suggested I watch the movies and stuff. I had no idea where I wanted Milla (Scar, but Scar is a false name) to go, or how I wanted her to develop. Something about Mandalorians really hit me hart, and it became very important to me. "When you're adopted by a Mandalorian Clan, their history becomes yours." Whether that is actual adoption, marriage, or becoming a Foundling. You're accepted as part of the family. It's a fresh start, and that's why I wanted Milla to become a Mandalorian.
In fact, it really invigorated ideas for me. I knew nothing about Mandalorians and their culture, but being accepted into a clan meant I could learn along with my character without any preconceptions or assumptions, and as I learn, I can develop the character through her experiences and her understanding of Mandalorian lore and culture.
I think becoming a Foundling of someone who could really help you learn along the way or even teach you is a great benefit in creating a Mandalorian. Not all Mandalorians are born, and moreso, it's a Code.
Big thanks to

for being willing to sponsor Milla into joining DWC, haha
