Name: The Tellepids

Background:  Mandalore the First was a venerated warrior, leading the Taung to conquer Mandalore and all its territory after the species were removed from Coruscant. However, no person can act alone, and Mandalore the First had an advisor. One who's word was extremely valuable, and respected.

And after the conquering of Mandalore, this advisor could see; perhaps they could genuinely see the future. And they saw a future of blood and fire in the hearts of the Mandalorians, be they Taung or not, and thus split from the main sect of Mandalore. And thus, the first Dar'manda would be born. The Tellepids, formed on a basis of pacifism and simplicity. 

And as the history of Mandalore pressed on, and so too did the Tellepids; changing with Mandalorian culture. But in 3996 BBY, with the efforts of Mandalore the Indomitable, something broke within the Tellepids. And with the rising of an individual simply called Dar, perhaps in a sheer twist of irony or coincidence, a shadow passed over the Tellepids forever. 

The Tellepids came to a realisation. That the Mandalorian people would suffer forever under the interests of clans and apathetic culture, and that the people would need to rise up and break the entire thing down, and come to realise what the first Dar'manda did. For what was wrong with Dar'manda, when it was truly the Mandalorians who were lost? 

And the Tellepids would begin their attack, nothing too serious that required an extermination, but consistent raids and luring of those who would understand their ideology. And they would spread as a unified movement across the planet, though would mostly settle on what was now known as Roma. 

But a glimmer of hope stood for the Tellepids in the form of Satine Kryze. Finally, a change in Mandalore, one which they could see. Finally, their ideals had taken root across the planet, all at the hands of someone the Tellepids greatly admired. Though they scorned the people for not rising up against Deathwatch themselves, who they considered to be the very embodiment of the waste of existence that was Mandalorian culture. 

But with the rise of Dorjander Kace, and the apathy of Satine Kryze, a fire was ignited in the Tellepids; whose hopes were dashed away from them in an instant. But then, something occurred even they could not predict. A strange duo came to Mandalore, and all of a sudden, Mandalore was on fire. Riots, fighting, rebellion; everything the Tellepids dreamed of had come true. The Mandalorian people arose to fight their culture and opressors, and the Tellepids marched with them. It was their umbrella, under their hidden leader Opos Hon, that the rebels basked in. 

But the destruction of Sundari, the destruction of the Rebellion; once again the Tellepids had their hopes and dreams dashed away all at the hands of one single push of the button. 

But perhaps all was not lost. Civil War, and with an extremely angry and bitter populace, their movement grows more and more. And soon, perhaps they will generate a wave that this time, cannot be stopped...

Speed: +3 levels to Combat Speed

Abilities:

Perk: Springtime of Mandalore

Equipment: No equipment change

Weaknesses: Cocky and arrogant fighters. Easily led into a trap where they believe they can succeed in a fight. Always try to best the strongest opponent around. 

The Tellepids, while a unified movement, have some dissenting opinions on the level of violence that should be employed to break Mandalore. And as such, one can gain a psychological advantage when pointing this out, in an effort to cause disruption in their ranks. The Tellepids, while obviously containing warriors, is mostly comprised of civilians; and thus warriors have to either defend those weaker than them, or be held back by their weakness is more dangerous combat scenarios. However, numbers can mean everything...
