Star Wars Characters: Canderous Ordo

Canderous was born to the Clan Ordo on the Mandalorian planet Ordo, as early as to undergo his verd’goten, the warriors’ initiation, in the middle of the greatest breakthrough in Mandalorian technology, when the Basilisk war droids were still being perfected. In those days, young warriors would prove themselves in real combat with unknown opponents on a number of worlds. The ones Canderous fought on were most likely among the locations of the late Krath Holy Crusade, near the close of the Great Sith War.

He would always remember his first battle, an 80 kilometer plunge through the atmosphere, dodging self-guided projectile and beam weapons, with barely fifteen centimeters of glowing-hot armor plate protecting him. During that battle, he gained considerable honor for his achievements, and became part of the most promising young warriors of his clan. Following the defeat of the Mandalorian Crusaders in 3,996 BBY, he was quickly recruited by Mandalore the Ultimate into the Neo-Crusaders.

Before the Mandalorian Wars started, Canderous witnessed what may have been the first Yuuzhan Vong scouting of the galaxy. His party was going through the asteroid belts of the Crispin system, to hunt the pirates and smugglers that used the frozen methane gas shells of the main belt for cover. Canderous targeted a small asteroid with a thermal generator to cause the outer layer of frozen gas to explode and destroy the hidden ships, but then the asteroid started rotating spraying thermal projectiles that melted armor like wax, and mysteriously fled before the Mandalorians could counter-attack. They tracked the vehicle rimward through hyperspace until they lost its trail near the galactic rim. The vessel could well have been of Vagaari origin though, as Canderous’ recollection was vague.
