| - Mandalore the Conquerer (Naast Mand'alor in Mando'a), known by his birth name of Ge'tal in his early life, was a Taung male Mandalorian who became the fourth Mandalore to serve the Mandalorian people during their time under the Hutt Empire. He was one of the first Taung to come into contact with the Hutts prior to the First Hutt War, being on the search team that discovered and killed the first Hutt scouts to Mandalore. He later fought in the war between the Taung and the Hutts, which resulted in a begrudged alliance between the two people against the Galactic Republic and the Jedi Order. For the majority of the First Hutt War, Ge'tal served the Hutts as a Mandalorian captain, serving in the Raid of Balmorra, as well as the Battle of Bothawui. During the Second Hutt War, four years later, the Human Mandalore, Vincent A'den was grievously injured during a Hutt battle at Dorin, causing the Mandalorians to force him out of his position. Ge'tal then rose up, claimed Mandalore's mask, and declared himself the new Mandalore, "Mandalore the Conquerer", and forsook his birth name to be called, simply, "Mandalore". Mandalore the Conquerer would be infamous for being the first Taung, a usually xenophobic species, to accept Humans and other aliens into the Mandalorian ranks. Up until then, Humans had only been allowed in the Mandalorian ranks by direct order of Hutt Emperor Tusa Ujalli Hai. It was under his reign as Mandalore that the Resol'nare (Mando'a for "Six Actions") and the Canons of Honor were instated as the code for all Mandalorians, Taung or alien, to follow.
