Aurek Ty'Baar (RP)

## Summary

Aurek Ty'Baar was an Old Republic Mandalorian Knight, and was trained by both Kes Okari and Rika Somed, who he followed into battle on many occasions before they, along with many other Mandalorian Knights, were transported to the Clone Wars era. After being transported he was soon thrust into a new war between The Republic and Mandalore, ultimately resulting in the defeat of Mandalore and his capture by the Republic, resulting in him encountering Vong forces on a mission with Revan and some of the HK Squad as-well as most of The Mandalorian Knights.

After returning from the mission he came back to Mandalore being part of the Republic as-well as the Mandalorian Knights being Jedi.  Aurek became open to trusting some Jedi though he still regarded the Council with suspicion, only becoming more after finding out they had worked with Deathwatch despite them being lead by a Sith Lord. Though Mandalore didn't remain in The Republic for long.

Soon after Mandalore broke from The Republic many of The Mandalorian Knights were killed in an attack on their temple. This, along with the destruction of Sundari, were the main forces that motivated Aurek to join the Vassals and attempt to undo their deaths and reunite with those he left behind in The Old Republic. Later on he joined Clan Darrin, which would soon decide to combine with another clan to form Clan Cabur with the goal of helping Mandalore and it's people. As of now Aurek remains true to his calling as a warrior and Mandalorian while he does missions for his clan and The Vassals, working towards achieving the end goal of resetting the universe

## Timeline

### Pre-RP backstory

Aurek Ty’Baar was trained by two Masters, Kes Okari and Rika Somed. He and his mentors traveled with the rest of the Mandalorian Knights to go to war against a covenant of 3 species called the Kedd'ej. Having taken a student of his own, he was considered by many of the Old Republic Jedi to be strong in the Force. With a strong devotion to Mandalore and some animosity to the Jedi, he is a warrior at heart. However, similar to the Mand’alor himself, no one quite knows how this man from a bygone era ended up in the time of the Clone Wars.

### The Neo-Mandalorian Wars

During the Neo-Mandalorian Wars Aurek fought with the Mandalorian Knights against the Republic, taking part in battle alongside his friends and mentors during the First Battle of Mandalore. Then, after the joint operation between The Shadow Collective and The Republic where Shadow Collective forces siezed control of Mandalore, he was captured by deathwatch and transferred to the republic before being sent on a secret mission alongside a few other Mandalorian knights, Revan, and several members of The HK squad, where they made contact with The Yuuzhan Vong, and Dorjander Kace was presumably killed after sacrificing himself to destroy a Vong ship.

### Republic-Mandalorian Unity

In the months after this mission Aurek returned to find that Mandalore was part of the Republic and the Mandalorian Knights had joined the Jedi. Aurek, while he still didn't trust most Republic Jedi, became more open to the idea of working with them and even trained with them on a few occasions, though his distrust of the council grew after he learned they had worked with Deathwatch.

### Revolution

A few months after the split from the republic, more than half of the remaining Mandalorian Knights were killed and the one responsible was never found, Aurek became distant from mandalore and left it's cities for a few months during the later stages of the revolution as he refused to fight the protestors since he himself was distrustful of the current Manda'lor Fyst Priest and couldn't bring himself to hurt the protestors, though he was loyal to Mandalore he still saw them as his own people, in the months after he eventually decided to return and respect Fyst's rule over Mandalore, Though distraught to learn that Tarre had been exiled with Bo-Katan after Kal Skirata bombed Sundari.

### Nar-Shadaa and The Vassals

After the events in Sundari Aurek along with several other Mandalorians left to go to Nar-Shadaa where they joined with Revenant squad to assist in a few missions, towards the end of these missions Havok met with Aurek and Del'gor Saxon to bring them into The Vassals of The Coiled King, aswell as offer to train Aurek in some darkside abilities. Aurek, reflecting on the deaths of The Mandalorian Knights and destruction of Sundari only a few months prior accepted, eager for an opportunity to undo them and have a second chance for The Knights, not knowing the truth about their deaths.

#### Recent Events

Since then Aurek has participated in a few battles against the CIS in a new war started by the glassing of Florrum and Trandosha and joined Clan Darrin, which then joined another clan to form Clan Cabur with the goal of protecting Mandalore and it's people. Clan Cabur was able to take control of a major city on Gargon, after which Aurek has participated in missions to unlock several vaults with the vassals.
