Mandalorian (5e Class)

Mandalorian[edit]
A figure in a helmet with a visor shaped like a "T" walks out of an alleyway, into a group of men playing cards around a fire. The figure put a gun to the back of one of the figures, and cocks if ominously. As he walks off with his bounty, one of the others shoots at him with a pistol, but the shot just bounces off his armor. A woman with a decorative helmet flies through the air, a jetpack propelling her. She rides up next to a starship that hovers above an innocent village. Inside, sits one of the biggest crime lords in the country. She raises a blaster, and shoots the man before he knows what's happening. A wounded child lies curled up in the nest of a giant beast, awaiting his doom. Then, several people clad in beskar armor crest the nest, and whisk him away before harm can come to him. Mandalorian, though they usually keep their helmets on, are some of the most powerful people there are. They are hired as bounty hunters for the hardest jobs, and wear near-impenetrable armor. Nobody wants to be on a Mandalorian's bad side.
