CLAN SKIRATA REMNANT
"He cared what happened to us. He was one of us, pretty much. Not just there because he couldn't cope with not being in the army anymore, or had to disappear. No, he was a good man."
RC-1309 NINER

-OVERVIEW-
Clan Skirata is small family clan that started with the adoption of Falin Mattran to Munin Skirata, from then on Falin Mattran was now known as Kal Skirata. During the early stages of the clone wars Kal Skirata trained elite Clone Commando and ARC Trooper units. Later after his retirement Kal was called in by CSF to control his NULL ARC's which after the battle of Geonosis refused to go into stasis. Kal agreed to do the job as long as he was re-enlisted to GAR and they gave him command over all his boys and no punishment for the NULL's. Kal always wanted the best for his boys and hence always looked for away to reverse the aging process eventually he succeeded in his goal not at all long after adopting Omega squad and the NULL ARC's, Bardin Jusik as his sons.
The Skirata clan remained small and prosperus their primary goal Family and Survival.


-HISTORY-
Early records of Clan Skirata have been lost to time, but the clan was around back before the Clone Wars, over a thousand years ago. Skirata has always been a small, close-knit Clan, once based around the region of Kyrimorut on Mandalore. While not as numerous as some other Clans, Skirata never the less did theur duties as Mandalorians, and served and fought like everyone else, and they have been frequent mercenaries of great note and skill.

In the waning days of the Clone Wars, and what is now called the Rise of the Empire, Skirata saw a sudden boom in numbers, as their ranks swelled with Fett clone deserters. And with the Clones rapid aging issues cured, Skirata would become instrumental in restoring Mandalore from Imperial rule. These highly trained Clone Troopers passed on their skills to the rest of the clan, and as many of them settled down and married, helping to swell the Clan's numbers yet further.

Suddenly Skirata was a true force to be reckoned with, with highly skilled and commandos almost comparable to Vencu's infamous Supercommandos. But having learned from the case of Fi Skirata, the Clone with serious brain damage, Skirata devoted themselves to having a standing corps of trained combat medics as well. And learning from their experience in the Clone Wars and the following years, Skirata began devoting themselves to armoured warfare, and set about mastering such vehicles such as the Canderous tank, and various Walkers.

When the Third Galactic Civil War came about, Clan Skirata fought alongside the unified Mandalorian Clans on the side of the Sith and Chiss, and eventually aided to bring down the Jedi and the Alliance. While it seemed a victory at the time of the Battle of Coruscant, it all went downhill from there. After Mand'alor Corden Vencu's death, a new Mandalorian took his place, one who is now known as Mandalore the Foolish. For five years he drove the Mandalorians further into the ground, and eventually, the people were driven to another violent Civil War.

Mandalore had been killed, Clans were seperating, and warlords were fighting over territory. On Mandalore, the heart of the sector, Clan Skirata definitely felt the effects of this new Mandalorian Civil War, and their leader, Lyon Skirata, decided it was time to leave Mandalorian Space before this got out of hand. The entirety of Clan Skirata packed up everything and left Mandalorian Space, and just in time to. Not long after Lyon and his Clan left the sector, the Sith Empress' war machine made its way into the conflict and blockaded the region. However in the rush to to leave Mandalore Some of the Skirata Clan was broken away from the main force. This small group of Mandalorians from the Skirata Clan tried to rejoin with the main task force but had no luck in locating them no matter how hard they tried. Eventually this group of Skirata Clan members settled down on the planet of Utapau. The small band of mandalorians would wait several years of trying to contact the main Skirata Clan group and waiting for it to conact them. When they finally realized that they would get no responses they assumed the rest dead and came to call themselves the Clan Skirata Remnant.

For several years or so, Clan Skirata Remnant worked on restoring the Sink Hole to functionality, being able to set up several proximity sensors, communication boosters, and the hangar blast doors. To make the place livable until they got permanent fixtures, they also brought in power generators, heaters, cooking ovens, and flood lights. To provide them food, there was also tunnels dug in the side of the sink hole and the soil made suitable for farming



-CURRENT DAY-

Even smaller than the real Clan Skirata, Clan Skriata Remnant struggles to survive each day coming a little closer certain doom. However their morals remain the same family, clan and tradition over all. The Skirata Remnant settled on the planet of Utapau and to secure their safety they have spread the word that the clan is extinct and exists no more. Satisfying for now those who wish to destroy them. Because of this The clan has tried to cut ties with the outside world as much as possible, not wanting to in the beginning but for their safety they were forced to. The Clan is still waiting for the day when they can strike back at the Empire and those who harmed the original clan and claim their vengeance.

"I—The Nulls, Vau, and me, we've been getting an escape route together, and a refuge for any man who wants to leave the GAR without a body bag. And we're getting close to finding out how to stop your accelerated aging. It's a whole new life, ad'ike, a long one like any other human's. Are you in? Will you come with me when I say it's time to run?"
Kal Skirata to Omega Squad, sharing his plans and information


-CULTURE-
The Skirata clan's primary focus is family. To them family is more important than anything. Skirata clan members are brought up to not turn down some one in need, whether it be a stranger or some one known. Not ones completely ready to jump into the fight the Skirata Clan will fight to defend family, friends, clan, Honor and the Mandalorian way and people.

-EVERY DAY LIFE-
Every day life for Skirata clan member is filled with the action of hunting down a bounty or some other way to put food on the table. Skirata clan members will do any thing to help the clan and family survive this dreadful time of lust and war. Clan members don't particularly like to get involved with the war as risks the chance of exposing the clan as it has been thought to be long gone and extinct, They will however take almost any other job offered to them. Because of this need to hide existence of the clan all members will use a different name in public and when excepting and finding work.

Skirata: "We Mando boys like to show we've been in action. Anyway, this is top-grade beskar—full density, two percent ciridium, no fancy lamination or carbon-alloy."
Vollen: "Does all that mean it's heavy?"
Skirata: "Yeah. Very heavy. Heavy is best."
Vollen: "Explains why you're so short then."
―Kal Skirata, explaining his armor to

-TRIAL-
Like all Mandalorians the children must pass the Warrior trial at age 13. Many do not wish to send their sons and daughters through the trials, as family ties are more important to Skirata clan members than Honor as for them Honor is family. Passage of the trial is achieved in combat by either completing 3 mercenary jobs or getting an amount of 5 kills in battle. If the competitor does not wish to accept ether of the following two challenges he or she may try to best 3 council members. Many who do not Complete trials will be accepted as have completing them any ways.
On passage the child would be given a set of Mandalorian armor made out DuraSteel by the clan, unless there was a family set that was to be handed down to him or her.


-CRIME & PUNISHMENT-
With family and clan being more important than any thing else crime comes with a minor punishment and other times off with a warning, this with the more serious offenses other wise it is nothing at all as long as it wasn't to help family or clan. If one was try harm family or clan the punishment would be death. This would be carried out by one of victim family members or a council member of the clan.

Clan laws also apply to out siders who wish to have sanctuary under their care.

-LEADERSHIP-
The Skirata Clan is lead by a 5 person council consisting of 5 head members of 5 different clan family's. This council makes all decisions for the council, however if enough clan members disagree with the council ruling and wish for some thing else then the majority request will be recognized and be excepted as the finale ruling unless it would harm the clan in some manner.

The Council is also the court of law for the clan and pass of ruling on all convicts.

-JOINING CLAN SKIRATA-
All are welcomed into clan skirata as long as you have had no ties with the sith who are out to destroy the Mandalorians. However if you can prove that you have broken all ties with the sith then the person would be accepted. If it was found out that one who has joined the clan had intentions of harming the clan then they would be put to death immediately after the news was reported to the clan unless the accused had proof other wise that weren't.

-DOMAIN-
Clan Skirata's home base is New Kyrimorut. Which is an abandoned small town on the system of Utapau. New Kyrimorut was made after Clan Skirata was forced to leave their home on Alzoc III, the town has been fortified with hidden bunkers other places of safety encase of an attack. Clan Skirata went to work on restoring the sink hole to functionality, being able to set up several proximity sensors, communication boosters, to ensure that no one can catch them by surprise. Hangar blast doors were also set up to protect clan the clan hangars. To make the place livable until they got permanent fixtures, they also brought in power generators, heaters, cooking ovens, and flood lights. To provide them food They dug tunnels in the side of the sinkhole where they could and made the soil where food could be grown. The clan has so far done a good job at keeping New Kyrimorut a secret from all.

Just with a quick look over I see a few things that you might have to add or change. First off the planet Iego is deep in Sith Territory (as seen here), so its not a good spot to be since most of the other Clans and the Confederacy won't be in a position to help you out. Next you have no listing of the NPC's your clan has access too. Remember that most likely you are not going to have many since the attack on the Mandalorian sector. Then on you ships you might not be allowed to have that many frigates for the same reason. Still on ships you need to list the amount of fighters you have. Right now it looks like you have 1 A-wing, 1 X-wing, and 1 E-wing. If that is the case then it is fine as it is, the same goes for the rest of your ships since you don't have hard numbers.

Edit: Forgot a link to the faction territories page.

Also before I forget, here is the old version of Skirata. Since it already exsists in this timeline you are pretty much stuck with the assests they have and you should probably really read over it. That way you keep the feel that was already but make the minor changes you want to it.

Alright, I'd like to start this post off by saying you can make this clan however you wish, but before you get too carried away it would be wise to read up on the history of clan Skirata on the site by taking a look at the current clan write up on page 2 of the approved faction boards. Hopefully, you can rectify the discrepency between your faction and the one that has already been around. That is to say, why are they so different?

Next, I highly recommend reading post 2 and 4 of this page. And as always, please read Weiss/Dmitri's timeline compendium if you haven't already.

Grim mentioned what I was going to say on the ships, but it should be noted the clan probably shouldn't have more than 500 NPC members to start to demonstrate the small size of the clan (though ultimately that's up to the reviewing admin). Keep in mind you will use these NPCs to man your ships and having big ships will make it impossible to fully man them.

And this is mostly nitpicky, but there's an excellent list of User-Made Mandalorian tech on the site. Be warned that after the switch over most links are broken, so you'll have to search for the ships manually, but at least you know what to look for. I bring this up because flavor wise it's what most other clans use in this timeline as it makes sense that they'd use what MandalMotors would have produced. However, you do you, like I said it was mostly nitpicky.

Edit: ninja'd by Grim. :P

I would suggest reading the profile. I would say that it looks pretty clear that it's Kal's clan. And unless you feel like explaining how there's another group of Skirata running about with its own fleet he brings up a point that it would make sense to be stuck with their assets.

I took your guys advice and used the old Clan Skirata history and stuff and made the changes that suited me.

So how did the clan that is now really low on supplies and members get 3 frigates and crew them? It seems to me that even in the old write up they didn't have much space fairing ships so I doubt that they would have 6 gunships and 3 frigates. I could see them having stolen a gunship or finding one and maybe getting some scrapped fighters which could explain the old fighters but I can not see them getting the frigates.

During my preliminary sweep, I have the following points:

1. So is the Alzoc still in Skirata control? The description of the base gives the impression it has been destroyed. If you are still having a base, bases do have a payment in regards to new factions. A medium-sized base comes at the rate of substituting 3 corvettes or one frigate.
2. Can you link me to Nebulon C frigate? I can't find it on Wookiepedia. Did you perchance mean one of the other Nebulon-# frigates?
3. Maximum naval strength for new factions is 2 frigates and 4 corvettes.

The reason I'm referring to this as a new faction rather than going on the old Clan Skirata is that despite the copy-paste from the other write-up, it has no OOC relationship to the old Clan Skirata. I am willing to discuss this matter and open to debate, but one issue I have with granting you access to the old Clan Skirata's assets is that it gives a bad precedent for the future of giving inactive factions to outsiders.

This is just an idea, but something that came to mind is that this Clan Skirata could be a branch of the old Clan Skirata. Possibly this group survived the Mandalorian Genocide, though in their escape they were cut off from the rest of the clan. Thus explaining the existence of two Skirata clans.

That was actually what it kind of was in the beginning until people started suggeting that I use stuff from the old clan skirata. I am not trying to blame this on them. I can give you the old description if you want to read it? I did some editing and I think this will suit you.

The reason we pointed him in that direction is a few times Lavi did similar with people making groups that had been Archived do to inactivity. However that said I do see where you are coming from.

@Dmitri I have a question about ship/fleet stuff. So, Grim informed me that the ships are typically considered to be fully manned and this does not count towards the 500 NPC limit an indie faction can start with. Is this how Mandos are also handled? I was under the impression they were more of an exception to that since they've been largely massacred in the last 10 years and starting out with 500 + several hundred to a thousand to man their ships seems counter-intuitive to this notion. I ask because if we assume the Nebulons are comparable to the B-Frigate class, then to fully man them plus the corvettes it would be around 2500 NPCs just for the ships. On skeleton/minimum crews its closer to 800 according to Wookiee. I had been doing it so that they don't get their ships manned due to the massive bonus of Mando NPCs we'd get.

Yep sure can. You do realize though that he will probably have to cut ties with the Hutt's if and I say if he works for them. Cause I think you can only be part of one faction at a time. Also what rank would you like for your character?
