BIOGRAPHY
Born in Iridonia and taken by slavers when he was 6, the Zabrak who would be known in the future as Wulfric Crowholde led a destitute life before being rescued and taken as a foundling by a male Mandalorian who longed to create his own clan. Wulfric is one of the founding members of Clan Crowholde, with his buir acting as the clan's alor.

Wulfric, along with those who have decided to take the vow and Creed of Mandalore, were trained ruthlessly by the alor, a Falleen adopted by the renowned Clan Vizsla. The alor, having found the young Zabrak decades after actualizing the desire to start a clan of his own, had decided to adopt the name of the Mandalorian (a foundling of Clan Vizsla) who had adopted him as his own.

Passing his verd'goten at the age of fourteen, the young Zabrak was tasked to help protect the clan before being a bounty hunter. Wulfric was patient and strictly followed the mission given to him, having been strictly raised in the Way. He developed the same traditionalist practice of the Creed as his adoptive father, and exercised the Way as religiously as the one who raised him.

Wulfric was thirty when he had taken a foundling of his own, an orphaned fifteen year-old female Dathomiri named Ilta. Upon discovering her Force-sensitivity, Wulfric pleaded to the alor for her to be granted access to her very own beskar'gam to better protect herself from those who sought her for her sorcery. While the appeal had been granted and the full cuirass crafted, Ilta was never able to wear the armor that identified her as a Mandalorian. She was killed by a hunter that had been tracking her down while accompanying Wulfric on a job at Jakku.

From then on, against his daughter's wishes, the Mandalorian Zabrak vowed to never adopt another child his perceived neglect might potentially kill.

Wulfric should have known that he could never deal in absolutes, however.

It was fifteen years after his first foundling's untimely death that he had come across an eighteen year-old Reiel in a backwater planet located in the Outer Rim – having first visited the planet when he was much younger (stopping for whatever supplies he could scrounge up, what with the state of the planet having practically no industrial cities nor major spaceports) and disposing of a small group of pirates who attempted to hijack his ship. Never had he thought that a bounty would lead him back to the skug hole, and eventually finding a teenager snooping about in his ship.

The kid was chatty, the complete opposite of Wulfric's foundling, but just as equally endearing. He liked her the moment she sassed him for leaving his ship's ramp open and the hunk of metal itself unguarded, looking absolutely unbothered with chastising a Mandalorian of his stature. Wulfric at first denied the request of the kid – Reiel Mal, he learned her name was – about hitching a ride with him offworld. But after experiencing such refreshing irreverence and witnessing a potential for marksmanship, the Mandalorian not-promised the human that he might return for her if she was worth remembering enough.

The kid – unsurprisingly – was rather unforgettable. To Wulfric, anyway.

And so months later, the Mandalorian found himself returning to the planet, teaching Reiel about combat and marksmanship. The two soon found themselves getting attached with each other, Wulfric seeing and treating the kid as his child and Reiel looking up to him as a father-figure. Soon enough, he found himself leaving the backwater planet with a new foundling in tow.

After accepting the Creed and having spoken the Vow of Adoption, the very short list of people having seen Wulfric's face grew by one addition. After losing his first adopted child, Wulfric became ruthless and unforgiving with his new child's training. He might have been harsh and cruel, but it was for Reiel's benefit (and, secretly, his – he could never bear losing another child again). But Wulfric never failed to show that he was ultimately soft for his daughter, too – providing more love and support for Reiel where his trainings appear almost needlessly gruelling and merciless.

During her training, Wulfric had approached the clan's armorer and discussed about the fate of his first foundling's beskar'gam. With the armor melted and repurposed for its new owner, the Mandalorian's love for his new daughter grew tenfold the moment Reiel told him that she would paint the new cuirass grey in honor of the sister she could've had.

Years of training and passing her verd'goten later, Reiel was now an additional provider for the clan by means of mercenary work. Still looking out for his child, Wulfric sometimes shared hunts with Reiel and oftentimes became her mode of transport in between jobs whenever he could – what with Reiel unable to find the perfect ship for herself as of yet.

BIOGRAPHY
A foundling of Clan Crowholde, Kiva grew up to be one of the covert's reliable beroya. She learned about the history of the Mandalorians and the Creed unto which they swore under Wulfric Crowholde's tutelage alongside her fellow foundlings Dell and Keeth.

Having met Srucayr of the Orar'da'yadr because of Reiel, Kiva found herself drawn to the Akaan Salyr. The two came to an understanding, their mutual feelings for each other ending up in a marriage that now tied Clan Crowholde to the Orar'da'yadr. Presently, Kiva resides in the Citadel, home to the Orar'da'yadr and now Clan Crowholde – but most importantly her beloved husband.

Kiva now serves as the Chief Healer of Clan Crowholde after being trained by the clan's alor. She acts like an older sister towards Reiel and is fiercely protective of the smaller Mandalorian regardless of her relationship with the head of the clan (with Reiel being the alor's grandchild through Wulfric adopting her).

BIOGRAPHY
Another foundling of Clan Crowholde, Dell was one of the Mandalorians who learned under Wulfric Crowholde's tutelage. Dell was born on Nar Shadaa to a poor family, and while the slums hadn't been kind to him the hands that dealt cruelty to him were, ultimately, his parents'. Sick of the abuse he chose to run away, becoming one of the many urchins that prowled upon the streets of the Smuggler's Moon.

Dell was ten when he met the Mando who would become his buir, and it was his audacity to rob her and his absolute temerity to deny the claim even when caught red-handed that somewhat endeared to him to the armored warrior he had just tried to pickpocket. The woman took Dell under her wing, and after a year of traveling with him she decided to adopt him as her own after receiving the kid's consent. And while Dell lied about being an orphan, the Mando soon found out that he had run away from home to escape the cruelties of his own parents.

"They almost killed me once – they're dead to me, Buir. They're not my family. You are. You love me and genuinely care more than they could ever do."

Dell thrived under his buir's love and guidance, and passed his verd'goten at the age of fourteen. Having secretly admired Kiva for years, he found serenity in letting his undeclared love for her go when she married the War Priest Srucayr. Presently he resided in the Citadel along with the rest of Clan Crowholde. It was an open secret that Dell was one of Reiel's most favorite people in the clan, and the two shared an uncle-niece bond that never failed to exasperate both Wulfric (Reiel's Dad) and Kiva. Chaos almost always ensued whenever uncle and niece were in the same room, with Dell feeding Reiel's childish tendencies and the latter helping her ba'vodu with setting up pranks on unsuspecting clan members.
