Nickname

The Mandalorian Mercs were Mandalorian soldiers who, after the death of Mandalore the Ultimate, became mercenaries.

History
Following the Battle of Malachor V and the end of the Mandalorian Wars, the Mandalorians who survived scattered across the galaxy; many lost their sense of honor and justice. Instead, they became mercenaries and sold their fighting skills off to the highest bidder.

The Mandalorian Mercs, as they would informally be known, fought in many battles on the behalf of others. Following a deal made with Jedi Master Murrtaggh, the mercenaries fought in the New Sith Wars on behalf of the Galactic Republic. At the Battle of Malrev IV, they would defeat the Dark Underlord. Despite the death of Murrtaggh, the Mandalorian Mercs would continue to war after the Sith, especially under Mandalore Ung Kusp. Their first loyalty remained to themselves however, and the Mandalorian Mercs would also serve the Sith until the Seventh Battle of Ruusan.

Behind the scenes
