It looks much better, but a verd'goten isn't the training itself, its the test at the end. Usually, Mandalorians are trained from the time they can walk to twelve or thirteen, when they undergo their trial. The verd'goten tests everything they learned. It is very challenging and varies from clan to clan. Some clans, like Bralor, send their young warriors to fight beasts in the wild. Others may send them on a difficult mission or to hunt an especially dangerous bounty. So Rift's adoptive parents should have been training him up until that point, then they give him the verd'goten. Make sense?
I know that Mars was always drilling Ordo first into his clan. Just so you know, as a Protector, Ordo effectively doesn't exist for you anymore. It's Just the Mandalorians.
Well, you need a Mando with a good backstory and the right qualities to join, then post your application in the Protector forum after you've been accepted to the faction as a whole.
He'd make a very good Sith xD
Though Mira's version of protecting her padawans and apprentices is not exactly 'looking out for them.' Unless someone other than her is trying to beat them up xD
