Clan Vevut Clan Vevut was a Mandalorian clan in existence on the planet Mandalore by the time of the Second Galactic Civil War , a conflict waged between the forces of the Galactic Alliance and the Confederation . After the death of his neighbors , the veteran Mandalorian soldier Novoc Vevut adopted their young orphaned son , Ghes Orade , in Mandalorian tradition . Vevut raised Orade , and the two lived together at Vevut ' s home and workshop in Keldabe , Mandalore ' s capital city . In the year 40 ABY , Orade met Mirta Gev — granddaughter of the current reigning " Mand ' alor " , Boba Fett — and the two began a relationship that led to the pair getting married . The wedding marked the initiation of Gev into the Vevut clan , and the celebration following their private marriage ceremony was held at the clan ' s Keldabe home . History . Living in Keldabe , the capital city of the planet Mandalore , the Mandalorian soldier Novoc Vevut owned a home that doubled as a workshop where he crafted and repaired weapons . At some point in time , Vevut ' s neighbors died , leaving their young son Ghes Orade orphaned . Vevut had known the boy his whole life , and with his parents dead , decided to adopt Orade in the Mandalorian tradition . The two did not get off to a pleasant start to their relationship , finding it difficult to accept each other in their new roles . In time , though , Vevut and Orade eventually grew closer . Vevut taught and trained Orade , and guided him through his " verd ' goten " , the traditional right of passage in Mandalorian culture that marked a coming of legal age . In 40 ABY , both Novoc Vevut and his son , Ghes Orade , were called to the planet Drall , located in the Core ' s Corellian system . There , the two met with " Mand ' alor " Boba Fett — leader of the Mandalorian clans — at the local cantina known as Zerria ' s Bar , to discuss an offer from Corellia ' s President Thrackan Sal - Solo , who sought to enlist Mandalorian aid in defending Centerpoint Station against any attack from the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances . Neither Vevut or Orade was enthusiastic about Sal - Solo ' s offer , and they soon departed the negotiation table in order to engage in a game of Cheg with a female bounty hunter that was later revealed to be Fett ' s estranged granddaughter , Mirta Gev . Following their initial meeting at the cantina on Drall , Orade and Gev began to develope a romantic relationship , and in need of a place to stay following the death of her mother , Ailyn Vel , Gev came to live with the Vevut clan at their Keldabe home . As time went on , Orade and Gev ' s relationship grew more serious , and Gev took to wearing the traditional golden sigils of Clan Vevut on her Mandalorian armor . When the Mandalorians were contracted by Imperial Admiral Natasi Daala , Vevut , Orade , and Gev all took part in the Second Battle of Fondor against the forces of the Sith Lord Darth Caedus . During the engagement , Orade piloted one of Mandalore ' s new " Tra ' kad " - class transports , while Gev and Vevut boarded the " Turbulent " - class Star Destroyer " Bloodfin " . Gev gravely wounded Caedus ' Sith apprentice , Tahiri Veila , with a stab to the leg , impressing Vevut with her combat ferocity . In the aftermath of the battle and the victory against Darth Caedus , the Mandalorian commandos returned to Mandalore , where Gev and Orade were wed in a private marriage ceremony . Vevut subsequently threw a celebratory feast at their Keldabe home , happy to welcome Gev into the ranks of Clan Vevut . Behind the scenes .
