Clan Ordo

Clan Ordo was a famed clan of Mandalorians who presided over the planet Ordo in the Mandalore sector for their Lord Mandalore, the ultimate official over the Mandalorians. The most famed clan member was its founder, Canderous Ordo, who fought during the Great Sith War, Mandalorian Wars, Jedi Civil War, and the Dark Wars. Ordo accompanied Revan during the Jedi Civil War and later, in accordance with orders from Revan and the interest of his people, reunited the Mandalorians under his banner as Mandalore. At some point between the years 3954 and 3951 BBY, Ordo returned to the former Mandalorian headquarters on the Onderonian moon of Dxun and began to reunite and rebuild Clan Ordo. Near the end of his life, Ordo saw that much of Mandalorian society still carried great anger towards Revan and, to prevent someone from claiming the title of Mandalore and starting another war, he hid Mandalore's Mask in a tomb and placed Revan's old assassin droid there to guard it under strict orders that only a descendant of Revan should be allowed to retrieve it.
During the Great Clan Wars, in the final decades of the Galactic Republic, Clan Ordo was led in battle against the Death Watch by Count Drezden, a descendant of Canderous Ordo; with the deaths of his two sons during the war, Drezden became the last of his line. Following the war, Clan Ordo's reputation would be held in contempt by many other clans due to one of their own, Marcus Sohl, marrying and subsequently giving birth to a child with a descendant of Revan. To escape scorn from the other clans, a group of Mandalorians split away from Clan Ordo to form their own society that strictly adhered to the "Way of the Mandalore" as a means of atoning for their disgrace. Marcus was disowned by his clan and family while his brother Raman succeeded Drezden as Clan Ordo's leader after his passing.
Later, in the years just prior to the Galactic Civil War, Marcus' son Jarik Shan would seek out Clan Ordo in an effort to make amends with his family, as well as end the millennia-long grudge between the Shan family and Mandalore. Shan assisted Raman in acquiring Mandalore's Mask and repaired the broken relationship with his family. Clan Ordo went on to join forces with Clan Wren in resisting the Imperial occupation of Mandalore, and would be instrumental in forming the Alliance of Mandalore.
