User:Drewton/Daklif Ordo

"I'm one of the few Mandalorians left, but I don't want to be just a Mandalorian. I need a purpose."

- Daklif Ordo

Daklif Ordo was a Human starwars:Mandalorian in the Rise of the Empire era. As a Mandalorian, he was trained in the group's warlike ways and fought in their nomadic battles. However, when the Mandalorians became all but extinct following the, Ordo began to rethink his life and sought a purpose that was more than simply killing and violence. After learning of a terrorist organization called the Nockudumey, he infiltrated it and attempted to learn of its ways so that he would be able to destroy it. During the, Ordo assisted the , though mostly because a  named  sought to destroy all Mandalorians. During the war, he attempted to kill the Nockudumey leader, Bodotor Thuvat, before learning of Thuvat's true goals.

Working on Dantooine (?-22 BBY)
"I flew ships. I made no money, though."

- Daklif Ordo

Though not many details are known, it was revealed when interrogated by Kyle Krenis that Daklif Ordo had been flying ships on starwars:Dantooine before the beginning of the Clone Wars, though he made no money. However, it is debatable whether Daklif was telling the truth or not.

Burt Drewton and Larry Drewton, who became allies of Daklif, had briefly become castaways on Dantooine. It is possible that they had met each other there.

Fighting For the Republic (22 BBY)
"I never said I liked the Republic, but I'll fight with it as long as the Clone Wars last."

- Kyle Krenis



Daklif Ordo fought on the Republic's side in the Clone Wars, because the Separatist Commander starwars:Durge threatened all Mandalorians and he was intending to revive them. He was seen at the Battle of Geonosis, but it is not likely he knew of Durge at that time.

Search for Information of Jango Fett
"I was coming for information of the bounty hunter, Jango Fett, because he'd lived here for years."

- Daklif Ordo

A few months after the war started, Daklif arrived on starwars:Kamino to find information on starwars:Jango Fett, not knowing that the Separatists were attacking at the time. It may have been fortunate for Daklif; he probably wouldn't have normally been allowed into Jango's apartment.

Fighting against droids through the apartment building in starwars:Tipoca City, he met Clone recruits Lieutenant Burt Drewton, Larry Drewton, and Commander Kyle Krenis along with a squad of starwars:ARC Troopers. The ARC Commander told him he would be allowed to do what he wanted, under the conditions that Burt and Larry would go with him in Tipoca City and that he would answer questions later.

Once inside Jango's apartment room, he found a small object which he told Larry Drewton was only a diary.



Soon after the battle, he was taken to Coruscant and questioned by Kyle Krenis. Krenis believed that he was a valuable asset in the war, and let him go, though clearly Krenis showed him hostility.
