Mandalorian Creed

The Mandalorian Creed was a creed followed by the Mandalorians, although some Mandalorians viewed it as stories for children. It consisted of several rules and was the definition of what it meant to be a true Mandalorian. It embraced loyalty, solidarity, helping fellow Mandalorians, and keeping your word. It required Mandalorians to take care of foundlings until they were reunited with their own people or came of age. Saving foundlings was considered as the highest honor of the Creed. The Creed contained songs of eons past, and prophesized curses that foretell destruction in case of straying away from the Creed. Mandalorians who came of age had performed a Mandalorian initiation ritual and recited the words of the Creed.
