    *Fun fact:* Despite his thirst for blood, Boba followed some fairly strict codes of dignity, especially related to sex. During his stay on Jabba's Palace, the Hutt offered Bobba to have relations with the enslaved Leia. However, Boba refused the offer and preferred to just chat with her, arguing that he considered completely immoral to have sex without being married. This encounter made Leia realize that Boba was not the cold-blooded monster everyone believed. Also, Boba once notified Solo about the death of the smuggler's first lover Bria Tharen, as he promised her one time while trying to capture her that, in case she died, he would be the one responsible of notifying her demise

    Watching Boba leaving aside his rivalry with Solo and work together to save the Galaxy from the Vong and other threats (to the point of even training Jaina) is one of the most epic things Legends made in the post-ROTJ Era. The fact Disney completely forgot Boba during the sequels was a crime

    I have always found Mandalore the Indomitable to be the most badass mandalorian leader. Despite treating the Sith Ulic Qel-Droma with utter disrespect and cockiness before their confrontation, he gladly accepted to serve him with complete loyalty as his second-in-command after being defeated, knowing that said Sith deserved to be his master.

    Anyhow, the Alt-universe's Mandalorians are extreme milquetoasts compared to this universe's. Must be because some events in that latter didn't happen, if not happened extremely differently, in the former.
    Edit: I don't think one can easily mix up the Traviss/Skirata interpretation of pre-2008 Legends with the Filoni/Kryze interpretation of the now Alt-universe, unfortunately.

    Satine is no mandalorian. She was a cowardly jedi puppet, who made her people weak. Nothing more

      Cowardly? Yes. I doubt she would've followed any other mandalore into battle, every other tenet of the resol'nare can be fulfilled without actively fighting anyone.

    Seeing how garbage this new season of The Mandalorian was, this truly isn't "Legends" to me and is the real canon.

      ​@@alext9612the writing for season3 was objectively terrible. The entire show was a disservice to Mando culture by watering down the lore, and confusing casuals with the dumb "taking off your helmet means you aren't a mando" rule

      @@alext9612 I understand they were another faction, but to make such an obscure clan ( with the dumb helmet rule created just for the show) to be the face of a live action Mandalorian show was a shitty idea, especially when there was plenty of existing lore to pull from

      @Alex T It may be the best Star Wars show, unfortunately, that’s only by comparison with all the other Star Wars shows and movies made by disney/filoni/favreau.
