Mandalore the Great

Mandalore the Great was the title bestowed upon the Human male leader of the Mandalorian warrior clans during the Dark Galactic War. Before becoming Mandalore, the man was a young member of the then-scattered warrior clans. He lived in the slums of Coruscant as one of the many Mandalorian gladiators who participated in underground fights for credits. He was a prowess fighter, his rise to fame was dramatically accelerated by the intervention of Grand Intelligence, an espionage agency of the Grand Empire.

Agents of Intelligence identified the young man as a possible future leader they could use to reunite the Mandalorian clans and direct them into an alliance with the Sith. The agents backed his fights with wealth and rose to champion of the arena. The Sith exploited his reputation and that he was to become the new warrior-king of his people, Mandalore. He accepted the title and the power it carried, but became subservient to the Empire that built him. As an act of loyalty, the new Mandalore directed his followers into fighting and placed the Sith as the victors of the Dark Galactic War.
