Mandalore the Ultimate

Mandalore the Ultimate led the Mandalorians during the Mandalorian Wars. One of the last Taung to claim the Mandalore title, and known to some as the Great Shadow Father, he sought to lift his people from the hole of betrayal and humiliation that plagued them since the Great Sith War. And beyond that, prevent the Mandalorian ways from vanishing forever as the Taung species neared extinction. The Ultimate went on to regroup Mandalorian forces into the Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders and slowly began to conquer fringe worlds that had been left defenseless in the wake of the Great Sith War. Mandalore took full advantage of the Galactic Republic's halfhearted efforts to oppose his aggression and personally led his forces as they invaded Republic territory. Under his command, the Neo-Crusaders nearly defeated the Republic during the Mandalorian Wars, and it was only through the leadership of the Jedi Knights Revan and Malak that the tide of the war was ultimately turned against Mandalore. In a valorous battle, Revan killed Mandalore in single combat, ending the war.
