Malek Kriya


 * "I am gonna ask you one question. Where's my money? Stop hiding like a 'hut'uun', and show yourself. Like I always say, when I get a job done, and I ain't paid, my contractor better have a pistol in arm. I will not hesitate to shoot him. All I can eventually say is....There's a price to pay."
 * -Malek Kriya

Malek Kriya, Mal'iak Crey-ia in Mando'a, born under the name of Zatar Morak, sometimes known as Kri'uz or commonly called Mal'Ko, and often mistakenly named Malek Morak Kriya, was a Force-sensitive male Human/Zenolian Mandalorian warrior, bounty hunter, assassin, and mercenary who lived during the final years of the Galactic Republic. Amidst the pan-galactic Clone Wars between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, Malek was a prominent member of the Kriya Clan, Death Watch, and the Mandalorian Guild. Following the death of his parents when he was just fourteen years old at the hands of the radical Mandalorian splinter group named the Death Watch, Malek set a path for vengeance against the group. Discovered by the closest allies of his family, the Kriya Clan, Malek (formerly Zatar) was adopted into the clan and would become the son of Dir Kriya and Miranda Kriya, as his name would also be changed into Malek Kriya. After this, Malek vowed to destroy the entire Death Watch splinter group. After this, Malek met a female Mandalorian named Xasha Lazen, who was a member of the Lazen Clan, who were also allies of the Kriya, and the now extinct Morak Clan. Malek met the young female after he saved her from a pack of dire-cats, after the latter had crashed her ship on Corellia. At that moment, the two became instant friends and went on many missions together, aiding their clans when in battles with the Death Watch, or rivaling clans. In 30 BBY, Malek's adoptive father died, due to a strange illness. Malek would then become the leader of the Kriya Clan. Five years later, Malek decided to go of and join the Death Watch under infiltration, in the hopes of exacting his revenge. During his time with the Death Watch, Malek began a career as both a bounty hunter and assassin. Passing his leadership of to his adopted sister, Mirta Kriya, Malek went of to the moon of Concordia, where he pledged his services to it's leader Pre Vizsla and was eventually accepted. Rising through the ranks, and eventually becoming liuetenant in 22 BBY, Malek gained Vizsla's trust, thus becoming his personal assassin.

In that same year, Malek joined the Mandalorian Guild, where he served as Commander, and quickly became friends with several members of the Guild, especially Beviin Kabur, whom he saw as a older brother. Three years prior, he joined the Cuy'val Dar, where he helped train clone troopers for the Galactic Republic. Malek also participated with the Death Watch in several missions. At this time, the Death Watch would form an alliance with the Confederacy of Independent Systems. After falling out with the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the Death Watch took refuge on Carlac, where Malek helped the Mandalorian Guild in attacking the Death Watch.

In 21 BBY, he would marry Xasha Lazen, in which the two had ended up falling in love upon their first meeting, and in the same year, prior to their marriage, Xasha gave birth to a young boy named Boba Kriya, who would follow in his father and nother's footsteps. Later in 17 BBY, they gave birth to Mirta Kriya who would also become a Mandalorian bounty hunter.

In 20 BBY, Malek joined Bo-Katan and Pre Vizsla, along with their new allies Sith Lord Darth Maul and his apprentice Savage Opress in taking Mandalore, and relieving it from the pacifist and peaceful Mandalorian government, in the hopes of bringing back what was "their Mandalore". Coming together with an army of criminals from Black Sun and the Pyke Syndicate to the foot soldiers of the Hutt Cartels, they charged in on Mandalore and were successful in taking the planet, until the betrayal of the Sith. Once Vizsla had been killed by Maul, Malek sided with Bo-Katan, and joined her in taking back Mandalore from the Sith proclaimed rulers. Fighting alongside Bo-Katan, and Xasha Lazen, against the Shadow Collective, the two helped in having Obi-Wan escorted out the planet, after the Mandalorian warriors made a truce with the Jedi Master. Following the fall of Mandalore, Malek returned to his homeworld of Concord Dawn, and later back to the Guild.

After the fall of the Republic in 19 BBY, Malek pledged his services to the Empire after noticing that it would be a great enviorment for bounty hunting. His wife would follow him in the same path. Two years later, Malek and Xasha gave birth to their second child, whom they would name Mirta. WWhile working Malek took the time to train his children, and other fellow Kriyan clan members. In 1 BBY, Malek and Xasha broke ties with the Empire, in order to continue their duties as a Mandalorian, also because they refused to attack a rebel base, that eventually held children. For the next several years, Malek fought in many wars. Such were the Mandalorian Clan Wars, the Yuuzhan Vong War, and the Second Galactic Civil War. During the same time, Malek formed a friendship with fellow bounty hunter Boba Fett and Jedi Knight Jaina Solo. Once the Second Galactic Civil War ended, Malek left with his family and headed to the planet of Zeno, where they made it their new home, and were trained by Ren Ion, who taught them how to properly use their Zenolian powers, and even control them, which made Malek and his entire family stronger. Spending the next eight decades in hiding, Malek was believed to have died, until he made a surprising return to the galaxy in 121 ABY. In 128 ABY, Malek was able to influence Chernan Ordo into forming an alliance with Zeno, escalating the dominance of Mandalore further than any other planet had been able to. Ten years later, after a decade long war in protecting Zeno, Malek returned to Mandalore after discovering that Yaga Auchs had broken the alliance between Mandalore & Zeno, who would dub Zeno as weaklings. Malek would kill Yaga in anger and take the title of Mand'alor for himself. Malek would hold the title for more than one hundred years, thus being the oldest Mandalore ever, and the longest reigning one as well. During this time he came invovled in few conflicts, and such were the Silent Watch/New Mandalorian & Resurgance War, another Unnamed War & the Imperial/Mandalore Crisis. As Mand'alor, Malek was able to recreate Mandalore with a stronger and biger navy, and helped create the Zeno Mandalorians. Also, between 220 ABY & 232 ABY, Malek's wife Xasha Lazen died from a strange illness. It would cause him grief, but he was able to overcome it, and would honor his wife, and created a legacy for her in the following years. In 259 ABY Malek returned to Zeno, where he once more become a bounty hunter and was named Grand Magistrate. He would seve his new home Zeno for hundreds of years, and continued his Mandalorian career, giving him a stronger reputation.

Early life (45 BBY-36 BBY)

 * "The term psychopaths fits only one group of those considered Mandalorians. If you are wondering on who I am talking about, it's the Death Watch."
 * "But why do you consider them psychopaths Malek?"
 * "Because they killed my parents in cold blood Xasha. And i won't stop until they are destroyed."
 * "Well in that case I will help you."
 * "Thank you Xasha."
 * -Malek and Xasha on the Death Watch

A male Mandalorian, Malek Kriya was born on the planet of Concord Dawn in 50 BBY, under the name of Zatar Morak to a Mandalorian couple. His father was named Boba Morak, while his mother was named Elisa Vizla, a descendant of Mandalorian bounty hunter Shae Vizla. Both of his parents were veterans on the concurrent Mandalorian Civil War and even members of True Mandalorians created by Jaster Mereel. Trained in the Mandalorian ways, not only by his parents, but also by Jango Fett, Malek evolved into a prominent Mandalorian warrior by the time he was twelve years old. Mastering the use of the jetpack, and using blasters, or pistols, Malek became the most skilled warrior of the Morak Clan, even when it came to martial arts. Once Malek had turned fourteen in 36 BBY, Malek was made leader of the Morak clan, after the elder, who led the clan died, and left it in his will for Malek. Only a few months after assuming leadership, as one of the youngest Mandalorians in history, Malek was overseeing training with his fellow kin and parents, until an explosion in the distance had caught their attention. Taking a small squad, Malek led them to the sight of the explosion, which had happened to be his home. While looking through the rubble, one of the Morak's discovered a small hologram, that activated and revealed the symbol of the Death Watch. Upon seeing this, he went to warn Malek about the Death Watch, but as soon as he arrived he was shot down by a Death Watch member, who emerged from the smoke. A few seconds later, Malek and his kin found themselves surrounded by the Death Watch. Ordering them to attack, Malek and his men managed to finish of the Death Watch soldiers, but took heavy losses. Returning to the training camp, Malek could only bare to see it completely in flames, and several of his kin dead, even children, who were killed in a second explosion. Enraged by this, with his father, the two went in search of Elisa, where Malek hoped his mom was alright. With several remaining men and women who survived the first attack, Malek led them to a secret warehouse, where a signal had pinpointed that his mom was being held there. Blasting the door open, Malek found his mother unconscious, while another Death Watch member stood behind her with a blaster in hand. Threatening to kill her if they didn't dropped their weapons, Malek told everyone to drop their weapons and to listen to the demands. However, Malek had thought ahead, in which he held a small pistol, hidden behind his gauntlet. With no second to spare, Malek shot the Death Watch in the head, killing him instantly, and much to his surprise, his mother awoke. Returning her weapons, helmet, and jetpack, Malek, his parents, and the remainder of his men and women took the fight to the Death Watch, who were ransacking the villages. Fighting against the splinter group, Malek used brute force upon the Death Watch soldiers killing them viciously, either by execution, or by causing a cross-fire between them.


 * "'Aliit ori'shya tal'din". Family is more than blood
 * -Malek shortly after the death of his parents

As the Death Watch suffered heavy losses, and Malek's group very few, he was about to pronounce victory, until a man emerged with his jetpack in the middle of the battle, ordering the Death Watch to stop. Shocked at this action, Malek questioned the man on why he made such an order, but there was no response. Out of the blue, the man drew one blaster and shot both Boba and Elisa in the chest, causing their jetpacks to malfunction, making them plummet 20 feet to the ground. Flying down to his parents, Malek arrived in time to hear their last words, which were "Zatar, continue our legacy. Fight for what we True Mandalorians fought for. We love you son. Please don't be foolish in your path for vengeance. Coordinate it and plan it out. Take this. Run away Zatar, run away while you still can, and keep the Morak Clan from going extinct, please."  Malek responded by saying, "I will keep your promise father and mother. Go in peace". Crying, Malek turned around to look at the man who had killed his parents. Seeing that he was now outnumbered, he ordered his men to retreat and find refuge, for it was over. Fleeing, the Death Watch leader ordered for them to be chased down and killed, to which would have Malek fighting for his life and for his kin. Having a small mid-air fight, Malek could only see in horror as the final members of the Morak clan were killed, leaving him the sole survivor along with a young female warrior, who was two years younger than him. Hoping to complete the promise he made to his parents, Malek, in tears, escaped in time with his final remaining kin, and decided not take vengeance at the time, until he was ready.

Joining the Kriya Clan

 * "I am Dir Kriya, and this is my wife Miranda Kriya. We were friends and allies of your parents. We are sorry for what happened, for we could've helped, but we were also attacked by the Death Watch as well. They held us back."
 * "I don't blame you. It's alright. The Morak Clan may be gone but I'm not."
 * "Join us, and honor what your parents left behind."
 * "I will join you, for Aliit ori'shya tal'din. You are also my family. I now don the name Kriya, for my new name is Malek Kriya."
 * Welcome to the Kriya Cla, Malek."
 * -Malek is adopted into the Kriya Clan

Following the death of his parents, Malek and the Morak female went in search of the Kriya Clan, who were the closest allies, and friends to his clan and parents. While searching throughout Concord Dawn, Malek began to lose hope, and started to doubt if he would even keep the Morak clan alive, after his entire kin was destroyed by the Death Watch. Spending several days outside, Malek began to lose faith and even got to the point of taking his own life, to the fact he was suffering from dehydration, hunger, depression and hallucinations about the Death Watch chasing him. Near death, Malek gave up hope and decided to take away his life, but was unable because he fainted from exhaustion, with the female Mandalorian trying to carry him to safety, due to a local ship flying overhead, believing it to be the Death Watch.

A few hours later, Malek awoke to the sight of three Mandalorians, where he became alarmed and started to panic, but was stopped by a Mandalorian dressed in Red armor. Telling him to calm down, the Mandalorian revealed himself as Dir Kriya, as his wife introduced herself as Miranda Kriya, and a third one revealed herself to be Mirta Kriya, the daughter of the two Mandalorians. Introducing himself, Dir explained on how sorry he was for not being able to aid his family during the Death Watch attack, because they were also attacked by the splinter group, and by the time they arrived, the entire Morak Clan had been completely massacred, and therefore set up funerals for the fallen warriors. Miranda also said that she knew that Malek was alive, for the position his parents had been with their hands together and one on each of their hearts. Stating it wasn't their fault, Malek told them that there as nothing they could've them for it was a surprise attack, that caught both clans of guard. Mirta, suggested that Malek, and his cousin, join them, and become a member of their family, for it was what they needed, and Malek would eventually take up the offer. Deciding no longer to use the name Zatar, he chose the name Malek, because it was the name of the man who had started the Morak Clan in the first place almost two thousand years ago. Donning the Kriya name as well, Malek was adopted by both Dir and Miranda, while he was glad that his adopted sister Mirta had suggested it. Also, the female Mandalorian who had survived along with Malek was adopted, now naming herself Nala Kriya, who was later revealed to be Malek's third cousin.

Saving Xasha

 * "My name is Malek Kriya, what's yours?"
 * "Xasha Lazen. Thank you for saving me Malek."
 * "No problem. Our clans are allies for that matter. No way I was gonna let a fellow ally die. Also, so you know, my real name is Zatar Morak, I was adopted into the Kriya Clan."
 * "So you're the son of the late Boba Morak and Elisa Vizla? Your parents were good friends of my parents. I am sorry for your loss."
 * "It's alright. I know they are always with me. The Kriya Clan is also my family, just like the Morak Clan."
 * 'They were really great allies to us. They helped us in our time of need. I will miss them."
 * "We are more than allies my dear Xasha. We are friends."
 * -Malek and Xasha upon their first meeting

Around six years later, Malek was appointed leadership of the Kriya Clan by his adoptive father Dir Kriya, who sadly died of a fatal injury, which became infected with a strange illness, while on a mission to Corellia. Saddened upon the death of his second father, Malek vowed he would not only carry the legacy of the Moraks, but also the Kriyas, for both were his family. A few days later, after the funeral, Malek was flying around a nearby village with his sister, after the two received an urgent message from a friend of the clan, who was Cristen Lazen, leader of the Lazen Clan, and father of Xasha Lazen. Once the two arrived at the village of the clan, Malek introduced himself to Cristen, in which, the the clan leader would welcome him as a friend, and tell him he was sorry for the lost of his parents and the entire Morak clan, and even the recent loss of his adopted father Dir. Telling him it was alright, and that things happen for a reason, Malek questioned on why he sent such an urgent message. Informing them that he had lost contact with his daughter on Corellia the same night Dir was fatally injured, Cristen told the two that he had received a message from five Death Watch warriors holding her hostage on the planet, to which they did by using a pack of dire-cats. Asking him where was the last known location of Xasha, Cristen would give him all the information he had, and alongside his sister, the two departed of to Corellia, in one of the ships owned by Xasha, which was the Mando'a Alliance. Piloting the ship, Malek landed the ship by a ravine. Telling his sister to split up, she agreed, knowing they would cover more ground. As Malek searched through a nearby forest, he heard screaming in the distance and several animals roaring. As he ran, Malek saw a ship, which had seemingly crashed during the same time Dir was fatally injured. Once he exited the forest, he saw a girl, in rags, running for her life with a lightsaber in hand. Once he got a closer look, Malek was able to identify her as Xasha, who was defending herself from a pack of dire-cats who had surrounded her. Scared and in panic, Malek rushed to her aid, and using a rocket on his jetpack, he shot at the pack of animals, killing several of them, to then pull out a blaster and kill the remaining dire-cats. Comforting Xasha, Malek told her he was there to rescue her and take her back home. After a small introduction and conversation, Malek would carry Xasha to the ship, because she had injured herself earlier when fighting against the dire-cats. Meeting up with his sister, who was already at the ship, she told them that she had killed the Death Watch soldiers, who were the ones who released the dire-cats after Xasha, after she escaped. Seeing their dead bodies, Malek said that the Death Watch organization was a lot bigger than he expected. Giving her medicine, Xasha told Malek she was grateful for him rescuing her, and even thanked Mirta. Once they got back to Concord Dawn, Malek returned Xasha to her family, and told them he looked to meet up with them again. He then returned back to the Kriya village, where he would begin training children, but was unaware that Xasha was watching him from the distance.

Battle on Concord Dawn (25 BBY)
Five years later, Malek received word on a upcoming Death Watch attack, that targeted the Lazen Clan. Only thinking on discovering if this was true, Malek took two Kriya Mandalorians and his sister and departed of to the Mandalorian moon of Concordia to search through any battle records that the Death Watch had previously made. Killing of two guards, Malek ordered his men to stand watch, while he and sister went to investigate the hideout. As the two made their way through the corridors, they were noticed by a fellow Death Watch member who would stop them in their tracks. However, the soldier would mistake them for fellow Death Watch members and questioned them on why they were so late, and to get their friends outside, for they had a meeting with Pre Vizsla. Gathering the two, the four warriors followed the Death Watch member to a room, containing several weapons, Death Watch members and Pre Vizsla himself. Taking their stand, Vizsla spoke out and told his men that they were planning to attack the Lazen Clan in the cover of the night, and slay everyone, even the children. Reacting instantly, Malek, Mirta, and their fellow Kriyans pulled out their blasters and started shooting at the Death Watch, killing almost half of them. Already alarmed, Vizla ordered to kill them, but before any Death Watch soldier could shoot, Malek pulled out a smoke bomb and threw it, giving them the chance to escape the Concordian moon. Sending a message to Cristen, both the Kriyan and Lazen clans prepared themselves for the upcoming battle. A few minutes later, a large shadow of Death Watch soldiers ame over the Kriyan village and started to fire down on the populace. Wanting to protect the children, Malek ordered to have  them sent to his underground base, which was underneath his house, and by that, every child was removed to safety. Packing his utensils, Malek was confronted by several Death Watch soldiers who told him to give up. Activating his lightsabers, the Death Watch believed him to be a  Jedi and started to fire at him. Deflecting every blast, Malek said he was no Jedi, for he just possessed the blades handed to him by his father who took them from a Jedi after killing him. Finishing of those who invaded his home, Malek ordered his men to fight to the very end, and to defend those who couldn't defend themselves, to which would be done. After a long fight, both sides suffered moderate losses, and believing victory was on his side, Vizsla ordered his men to fire and kill of every member of the Kriya clan, but a small order changed it all. Emerging from the smoke, Mirta and Xasha leading the Lazen Clan ambushed the Death Watch. Smiling, Malek started to fire at an incoming swarm of Death Watch soldiers, inflicting heavy losses to Vizsla. Seeing he was outnumbered, Vizsla and the Death Watch retreated, leaving victory to both the Kriya and Lazen Clan. Shouting in cheers, Malek congratulated his sister Mirta and friend Xasha on their successful ambush, saying that if they hadn't done at the right moment, they wouldn't be alive, to which they agreed. A week later, Malek made an announcement, saying that he was going to join the Death Watch under infiltration, in order to make them collapse from the inside. Sad at first, Mirta told him to do what must be done, in order to avenge his clan, to which he said he would. Before leaving, Malek visited the graves of his parents, Boba Morak and Elisa Vizla, saying that their moment for eternal peace was at hand.

Death Watch Infiltration (25 BBY-20 BBY)

 * "'Ke barjurir gar'ade, jagyc'ade kot'la a dalyc'ade kotla'shy. (Train your sons to be strong but your daughters to be stronger)"
 * -Malek to the Kriya Clan before departing of to join the Death Watch under infiltration

After the Battle of Concord, and addressing his plan on infiltrating the Death Watch, Malek passed on his leadership to his sister, stating that it was her time to lead their kin. Accepting it, Mirta became the new leader, but told Malek that if anything happened, she would return to the leadership of the clan to him, and he complied. Upon leaving the village, while preparing his ship, Malek was visited by Xasha Lazen who told him she worried that his concurrent plan might end up failing. Crying, and in tears she said that she didn't want to lose such a great friend. Comforting her, and wiping of her tears, Malek would make her feel better by saying he would be fine, and that he would return safely back to her. Having an emotional farewell with Xasha, Malek departed of to Concordia. Piloting his Silent Watch I, Malek landed outside a Concordian mine, in which after his helmet detected movement from inside it, he entered the mine. Finding a pair of Death Watch attire, Malek donned the armor, and hid his normal Kriyan armor. Upon switching, another Death Watch member saw him and quickly recognized him as a enemy. Pulling out his blaster, Malek shot and killed the Death Watch warrior, and hid his body in a a nearby training base. Leaving, Malek encountered the Death Watch leader Pre Vizsla, and told him that he was a new recruit, and that he was willing to pledge his loyalty to the Death Watch. Smiling, Vizsla welcomed Malek to the Death Watch. Hidden by his helmet, Malek smiled and muttered in Mando'a ''"'Ib'tuur jatne tuur ash'ad kyr'amur." ''Vizsla was however unaware on what Malek said and on what his actions and future plans were.

Clone Wars (22 BBY-19 BBY)

 * "'Took only three years for me to be a lieutenant, but it took long enough for this war."
 * "The time to reveal myself is at hand Pre Vizsla, and once you see who I am, you will meet your end."
 * -Malek to himself while observing the First Battle of Geonosis.

Joining the Mandalorian Guild

 * "My name is Malek Kriya, son of Dir Kriya, and I have ben looking for you, to join you."
 * "I see, but why do you want to join us?"
 * "My birth name was Zatar Morak, as my real father was Boba Morak, and my mother was Elisa Vizla. Both were True Mandalorians who fought beside your brothers during the Mandalorian Civil War. In their memory, I want to join you, and get revenge on the Death Watch, for they are responsible, not only for my father's death, but my mother's as well. My beliefs are true to the Mandalorians, and I am faithful to it, and I will serve you all, as my vode. I am a True Mandalorian."
 * "You have proven yourself. Welcome to the guild Mal'Ko. You are now one of us Vode."
 * -Malek is welcomed into the Mandalorian Guild by Khaled Skirata

A few weeks after the start of the Clone Wars, Malek went in search of the Mandalorian Guild. After receiving word on it's formation, Malek gained an interest in joining them, since they honored the True Mandalorians, and some were apart of them, or their fathers had served them. Searching on several planets of the galaxy, Malek was unable to find them at first, until one day, he unwillingly picked up an incoming transmission from the guild itself, who were contacting one of their own. Due to this, Malek was able to pinpoint the coordinates, and then headed to the Mandalorian sector, to where the Guild headquarters was located. As soon as he departed in his Silent Watch I, Malek landed a few clicks south of the Mmandalorian Guild headquarters, and left his ship. While walking, Malek was spotted by two Mandalorian warriors, one named Khaled Skirata and another unnamed warrior. The two generals of the guild approached him and asked him what his business was. Not wanting any trouble himself, Malek placed all his weapons on the floor, and asked if he could speak with the guild's leader Beviin Kaburn, but he was denied it, one because Beviin was not present at the time, and because he would be mistaken for a Death Watch member. Malek was however able to prove that he wasn't a member of the splinter group, and that he was an actual Mandalorian, from his biological father's clan symbol, and also from his adopted parents. Seeing that he was the son of the late Boba Morak and Elisa Vizla, and the now adopted son of the former leader of the Kriya Clan, Khaled welcomed Malek into the guild, announcing him as their new vode. Once he joined, Malek told the guild that he was currently doing a mission of infiltration on the Death  Watch, for already which he been doing for three years, and he was doing it to take them out from the inside, since they were responsible for the massacre of almost the entire Morak clan. Asking if he could continue with the mission, the high general granted him the request, but Malek also promised that he were to receive any calls from them (Mandalorian Guild), he would respond and undertake any mission they told him to do, for he gave all his loyalty to the guild, and he would his serve all his new Vode with honor, and show what it meant to be a True Mandalorian.

Meeting an old friend

 * "I've missed you Malek."
 * "As have I Xasha. Forgive me for leaving like that all those years ago. I just-I-I had to do it. You know why."
 * "Yes I do Malek. It's ok, I have been away from my clan for a long time as well. Just like you, I joined the Nite Owls, a group of warriors within the Death Watch. I have gained the trust of it's leader and am now second in command. Without us knowing, we have been together all along."
 * "It seems so Xasha. When all this is over, I promise you that we will finally be able to be together.
 * "Really Malek? (grabs Malek's hands)"
 * "Really Xasha." (removes helmet)
 * "Ni kar'tayl darasuum Malek. (removes helmet)
 * " 'Ni kar'tayl gar darasuum 'Xasha" (Malek and Xasha share a passionate kiss)
 * -After meeting once more, Malek and Xasha reveal their feelings to one another, as Malek promises that as soon the Clone Wars ended, they would be together

Almost a month after joining the Mandalorian Guild, Malek had already served alongside them in several missions, and such were attacking the Death Watch. When going on another mission, Malek decided first to go to Mandalore to fill up his ship with fuel. Landing on a dock in the city of Sundari, Malek was able to find a man to fuel his ship, who was a fan of the old Mandalorians, and as this happened, another ship landed, and wondering who it was Malek walked towards the ship and saw a female Mandalorian in white armor walk out. Once the Mandalorian came closer, Malek instantly knew that it was his childhood friend Xasha, since she was the only Mandalorian of the Lazen Clan to have purple linings on her white armor. Calling out her name, Xasha pulled out her blaster, believing it was an enemy calling her, but once she saw the green armor, and the Kriyan symbol on the right sleeve, Xasha ran to Malek, and the two greeted each other with a Kov’nyn, or also known as the “Keldabe Kiss”. Embracing each other, the two expressed on how much they had missed one another, and as to the reasons why each one did what they did. Deciding to take a little stroll across the capital of Sundari, the two talked on how their life changed over the years. Malek and Xasha were eventually lucky in not being caught, since night was falling on the Mandalorian capital.

Knowing it was best to return to their ships, the two Mandalorians returned to the docks. Before going their separate ways once more, the two spoke again on how much they missed each other, as how their work has kept them separate for so long, keeping them away from the one person they wanted to be with. After this, the two removed their helmets and confessed their feelings to one another, and would share a passionate kiss. Deciding it was best to leave in the morning, the two shared their last moments together, and then departed the next day of to complete the missions they had set out several years ago. Before each of them had left, Xasha had given Malek her necklace, which she had made when they first met. Malek accepted her gift, and the two kissed once more, as Malek made the promise again on the two being together.

Zenolian Discovery

 * W-W-What's happening to me?"
 * "What are these powers? What am I?"
 * "You are not only human, but a Zenolian Malek, my descendant. Your ancestors were not only humans but also Zenolian. You have our blood and powers. Use it well."
 * "I will Malek. I am Malek Kriya, formerly Zatar Morak, and like always I don my Maandalorian heritage, and proudly will live my Zenolian lineage."
 * -Malek discovers his Zenolian heritage through the ghost of his ancestor Malek Morak

A few weeks later Malek had the biggest surprise of his life. While sleeping, he was transported to an alternate world, known as Zeno. While on the planet, Malek began feeling pulses throughout his body, as even electrical waves in his body. A few seconds later, he unleashed an ability that seemed similar to Force Lightning, but was more powerful than an ordinary lightning attack. As he was surrounded, Malek saw his ancestor Malek Morak. Revealing to Malek (Zatar) on where he came from, Malek was scared at first, but knew that it was his family and lineage. Accepting his Zenolian side, Malek's eyes changed color and his Zenolian powers awoke. Malek knew that in time he would be discovered for what he was, but he cared not. Sent back to Concordia, Malek awoke in his room, now a completely different person. Making a fist with his two hands, Malek unleashed his Emerald Lightning that caused sparks and blackouts throughout the entire Death Watch base. Smiling, Malek now knew that his purpose in life was to honor his Zenolian heritage and Morak and Kriya clan.

Joining the Separatists (22 BBY-21 BBY)

 * "Know this, I do this only to get paid, and it better be a good amount."
 * "No need to worry bounty hunter, I'll make sure you get your money."
 * "You better, cause if not, this will be the last thing you ever see. UNDERSTOOD!
 * "Yes, yes Malek.
 * -Malek to Nute Gunray

After joining the Mandalorian Guild, and meeting Xasha, three months would have already passed since the Battle of Geonosis. During this time, Malek came into league with Count Dooku and the Separatists, to which he would offer his services to, as a bounty hunter. Starting his career as a bounty hunter once more, his skills and abilities rivaled that of notorious Duros bounty hunter Cad Bane, however, Malek did not seek in building any kind of known reputation. Despite this, Malek built his reputation in the most unusual way, to which was either siding with the one who paid him most, or gave him the neediest task. For five months, Malek worked for Nute Gunray as his personal bounty hunter, despite the fact, he would always reject Gunray's mission in going to kill Padmé Amidala, for he found it a waste of time in killing her, and this often led to disputes between the two, with Malek always winning by under threats, or by killing of Gunray's guards. Having strict regulations, Malek always got what what he wanted, as his desires in helping out the Death Watch through lies and deceit. While working under Gunray, Malek often recieved missions from Pre Vizsla as well, which were often small terrorist attacks. Meanless to say, Malek would make quite few appearances in the Clone Wars, because many pieces of information about him was never properly recorded or saved, and after the initiation of Order 66, Malek would eventually become known to the galaxy. However, for his few appearances during the war, Malek was responsible for several attacks on several Republic ships, attacks on Mandalore, the deaths of several corruptible senators who spoke out against the war, and Mandalorians who spoke out against the Death Watch, and although he had initial hate for the Death Watch, Malek always felt that they were disgracing the old Mandalorian ways and culture. During this tenure, his most common kills were centrally based on Republic clone troops stationed in several military bases across the galaxy, commanders, and captains, which often granted him access to secret base locations that would essentially aid the Separatists. Malek remained in the service of the Separatists, until Death Watch fell out of league with the them. During his bounty hunting services with Nute Gunray, Malek was able to walk out with a cash load of credits, which often ranked from one million credits and four million credits (to which he often stole), even after getting paid, and with it he bought hundreds of weapon and armor upgrades for the Kriya clan, Lazen Clan, himself, the Mandalorian Guild, and also the Death Watch.

Joining the Republic, and helping the Jedi (21 BBY)

 * "As long as I'm paid, you will get what you want. Other than that, I want nothing to do with you Jedi or Galactic Senators. I am still surprised you contact me after all that I have done to your pathetic senators."
 * -Malek to the Jedi High Council and Galactic Senate

After "leaving" the Separatists, Malek was summoned by the Galactic Republic, who needed his help. Accepting the offer to come to Coruscant, Malek left Concordia and traveled to the Republic's capital. Once he landed, several clone troopers were waiting for him, but for safety, they removed his guns and proceeded to take him to the Galactic Senate building, where he would meet the Jedi for the first time. Asked to speak, Malek stood up before the entire Senate and spoke that his recent actions were not crimes, but his job as a bounty hunter and assassin. Angered, Anakin shouted at the Mandalorian, but Malek replied if he threatened him, he could forget all the information he had on several Separatists, which could help them in the war by a fraction, to which would be enough. Calmed down by Obi-Wan, Anakin took his seat, while Ahsoka told him not to worry, and then Anakin listened to Malek. Taking a chip, Malek injected it into a slot, and what he had said earlier was true. Several pieces of information on the Separatists bases was revealed. Offering is services to the Republic, Malek also revealed that he was also one of the many training the clones on Kamino, while he worked for the Separatists, for he also got paid by the Kaminoans.

Shocking skills

 * "Just because you know the Force, doesn't mean that you will win Skywalker. Just like you, I know how to wield a blade. Serving my purpose as a Mandalorian, I learned how to use it by my adopted parents Jedi. So watch it with your overconfidence, it can cost you. Also just because you are the Chosen One, to me that means nothing, for you are still a normal person nevertheless, a Jedi for that matter. But you are a Jedi who confides too much in your own abilities, and when you do that, the Jedi stain themselves with selfish acts. They also end up going against what they believe. That will end up causing the demise of the Republic."
 * -Malek to Anakin Skywalker after defeating the latter in a lightsaber sparring match

After his conference with the Senate, Malek went to the Jedi Temple to recover his weapons, as his lightsabers, which was a shock to several Jedi within the Temple. Challenged to a duel by Skywalker as soon as he entered the room. Malek was however skeptical, and said he had no time to battle a Jedi, for he had more important things to do. As Malek walked away, with his weapons on stock, Anakin shouted at him calling him a coward, and that he was scared of a Jedi. Laughing at Anakin's outrageous statements, Malek accepted Anakin's challenge, and both headed to the training room to duel, while the Jedi Council watched, along with Ahsoka Tano. Taking out his two blades, Malek told Anakin that the blade he held in is hand, he had taken from a Jedi he accidentally killed when aiding an Twi'Lek girl, who had injured herself, as was also just a child, who was running scared. The Jedi had gone to attack him, and in defense he shot him. Never having the choice to kill him, Malek saw it as his only choice, and to honor the Jedi, he took the Jedi's blade for himself. Shocked in one way, Anakin just told Malek to get along with the duel, which would be quick and easy, but Malek would simply laugh, and ignited his blades. While Anakin charged and threw vicious attacks, Malek rarely moved and made quick work of his attacks through simple defenses and doges, mostly showing of his agility and skills in martial arts. Wanting to end the duel quickly, Malek swiped Anakin down and pointed his blades down at the Jedi, taking victory for himself, which eventually shocked the Jedi. Telling Anakin what the true meaning of each side of the galaxy was, as what everything meant to him, Malek put his blades away, and left the temple in his jetpack, and said he would await his mission. However, Malek held secrets against the Republic, which was his alliance with the Separatists at the same time. With this, Malek was able to cause the two sides to suffer heavy losses in numerous battles for almost a year.

Black Arms dealer manhunt

 * "The Underworld of Coruscant. A great place to hide, bad place to commit a crime, but a suitable area for a bounty hunter like me."
 * -Malek when searching through the Underworld

Three days later, Malek was contacted by the Galactic Senate, requesting his bounty hunting skills, in removing a black arms dealer named Jak Ty. Heading to the Senate Building, he was greeted by several senators. Allowed to enter with his weapons, Malek made his way towards the Senate room, where Supreme Chancellor Palpatine would hand him his mission in going to the Coruscant Underworld. After arriving at the Underworld, several other criminals noticed Malek and went to attack him, but he would simply stop them by using a smoke bomb. A few minutes later, Malek stopped by a local store, which seemingly sold Republic weapons. Taking out his Warlord pistols, Malek pointed them at the Ithorian owner and demanded he tell him where Jak was, or he would also die. Not wanting to get invovled, the store owner told him that he lived in the areas of 1313 in a small aprtment on the fith floor. He also said to be careful, because it was sawrming with criminal, but Malek implied that he knew what to di if anyone messed with him. Taking the Ithorian's information, Malek would find the aprtment, and after asking the owner of the build if Jak lived there, he would be answered yes. Making his way up, Malek saw that it was a very gloomy place to live, making it a great home for an arms dealer. Blasting the door open, Malek saw there was no one home, but that it was the home of the target, for there were several weapons on his desk, and a sign that said "Jak Ty, the best arms dealer alive. Come and get your weapons, for half the original price."

As he prepared to leave, Jak came up the stairs after being told that someone was looking for. Once he saw Malek, he pulled out a blaster and began shooting at him, who would quickly dodge all the shots. Seeing at how pathetic he was, Malek used one shot to shoot of the blaster from Jak's hand, who would instantly run away, and get on a speeder, which was just parked outside. Believing he escaped, Jak lowered his speed, and preached that no one could ever stop him. However, Malek had flown ahead of him on his jetpack and awaited for his arrival by the same local store he mad been to earlier. As Jak walked towards the Ithorian, Malek hid behind the counter, waiting for the right time to strike.As the two spoke, Malek prepared only one of his pistols, and without any warning, he revealed himself and took aim at Jak and quickly shot him in the heart, killing him. The Ithorian begged not to be killed, but Malek stated that he wasn't the target, so he didn't have to worry. The Mandalorian then left the Coruscant Underworld and returned to the Galactic Senate to receive his payment. Palpatine would generously pay him 500,000 credits, which Malek gladly accepted, and told him if he needed him again, he wouldn't need to ask, for the only thing he had to do was say the mission and would accept it.

Mission to Ryloth

 * "You got what you wanted, now where's my money Jedi?"
 * "Not to worry my friend, Master Skywalker, please present our friend with his money."
 * "You should at least say thank you Malek"
 * "That won't be necessary Padawan Tano, for it is you and your troops who should give me thanks
 * -Malek demands his payment to the Jedi

A few weeks later, Malek was contacted by Master Mace Windu, who requested his help on the Planet of Ryloth. Taking the mission, Malek returned to the Jedi Temple to receive his orders. Asking to help out a group of trapped Clone troopers, Malek departed of to Ryloth instantly to complete his mission. Using his ship as a distraction and bomb, Malek set it on autopilot and set it to crash towards several tanks, which turned out to be successful. Using his jetpack, Malek landed in the area of the trapped clones, where he helped them escape the area, as also several injured troops. Shooting down several droids, Malek led the troopers to safety, and rescued several other Twi'Leks as well. Successfully completing his mission, Malek returned to the Temple here he received his payment. Much to their surprise, Malek handed them a storage device holding several information on the Separatists, and told them he was taking a temporal leave. Malek would later return to Concordia to continue his Death Watch infiltration.

Rejoining the Separatists

 * "If you had done your job right Vizsla, we could have taken Mandalore, but your pathetic way of ruling this splinter group has lost us the planet."
 * "Now listen here Zenolian trash, if you think---aaaaagh (Malek grabs Vizsla by the neck)
 * "If I were you, I would be careful with what is said. You know how I am. I won't hesitate to kill any Death Watch soldier here, and you know it"
 * -Malek warns Vizsla of what he's capable of

After leaving the Republic, Pre Vizsla, under orders from the Separatists ordered Malek to attack a Republic cruiser, to which he would oblige. Donning the original Mandalorian armor for just this mission, Malek attacked the cruiser, to which he would succeed and escape. Killing several troopers, Malek saw how weak the Republic Army was, and that it was a good idea he left them, although he was paid several times (however most of the missions are unknown). During the mission, Malek also stole several weapons and credits for himself, to continue his modifications on his attire. With word given out to the Galactic Senate, Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, who was sent by the Jedi High Council went to investigate what were supposed rumors of treason. When Kenobi arrived, Malek was watching from a distance, however disguised as a regular Mandalorian citizen. Signaling an unknown man, Malek left the area and awaited for the man to complete his job. A few minutes later Kenobi was walking along with Duchess Satine near the memorial shrine, until a few seconds later an explosion occurred near the area. The blast caused a small amount of damage, but with several people injured. When the smoke cleared a holographic display of Death Watch's symbol was left behind, leaving Satine shocked. From a distance, now with his armor, Malek smiled and took flight as he departed of to Concordia.

Welcoming the enemy
When Obi-Wan Kenobi and Satine Kyrze arrived in a Mandalorian shuttle, Malek was disguised as a Mandalorian police officer, who served alongside another member, who alongside Govenor Vizsla welcomed the the Jedi and Duchess. Shortly after welcoming the two, Vizsla handed Malek a datapad, to which he would take. Leaving, Malek returned to the Death Watch hideout. Removing the police attire, and placing his Death Watch armor back on, Malek would hear a Balutar-class swoop speeding in the distance, and it was getting louder. Using the HUD on his helmet, Malek scanned the incoming speeder and figure, which revealed itself to be Obi-Wan Kenobi. Deciding not to take any action, Malek looked at two fellow Mandalorians and decided that it was best for them to take care of the Jedi, for he had no intention of dealing with Kenobi again. Leaving the base to the two Death Watch soldiers, Malek took of in his jetpack and prepared himself for a confrontation that would occurr later on that day. While flying back to Vizsla, Malek recieved a message from one of the Mandalorians, telling him that they successfully captured Kenobi, and that they were gonna need help if anything else happened. Taking the message, Malek flew back to the base, only to arrive shortly after the two Mandalorians lost in a fight and were knocked out by Kenobi.

After a small fight between Kenobi and the Death Watch, Malek reappeared, but his alliance with them was unknown to Kenobi, as had no idea that he was on the planet. Confronting the two, Malek handed Vizsla his blaster to which he would use to kill one of his own after failing to defeat the unarmed Jedi. Revealing himself to Kenobi and Satine, Vizsla ignored the fact of Satine's words on why he would betray Mandalore, to which he simply replied that she had tarnished the very name Mandalorian with her peace-seeking government. Returning Kenobi's lightsaber, Vizsla unleashed his Darksaber, which was black-bladed lightsaber that his ancestors had stolen from the Jedi Temple long ago, during the fall of the Old Republic, and then went to duel the Jedi Master. Vizsla unleashed strong attacks on Kenobi, as Kenobi went for defenses, and attacks as well as both of them kept dodging each blow, as one had the desire to kill. From lightsaber dueling, to a short unarmed combat fight, Kenobi would come out victorious after intercepting him in mid-air. Deciding not to chase him, Vizsla ordered Malek and two mother soldiers to launch missiles at the two escaping, which was done, but knowing they survived, Vizsla decided it was best to leave the planet and await another chance to kill Satine, as well, Kenobi.

March for Battle & Assassination Plots

 * "Haar'chak Satine, gar' 'hut'uun!" (Damn it Satine, you coward)
 * -Malek to a fleeing Satine after failing to assassinate her

Following a series of several unsuccessful plots to kill Satine, Malek became a part of Vizlsa's mobilized Death Watch army. Unlike the others, under orders from both Dooku & Pre Vizsla, Malek was sent to kill Satine, which required in three assassination attempts on the Duchess. Malek first decided to plant a bomb in her ComfortRide passenger airspeeder in which was detonated it, to which damaged the engines and navigation computer. With the speeder now out of control, in a last minute attempt to save the Duchess, Aramis ordered Satine and her guards to jump, and doing so, they landed safely, but Aramis met with his end, when he crashed into a building. Angered by this, Malek decided to kill Satine using another method, as he was told by Vizsla again. Taking his sniper rifle, Malek first shot Davu Golec of Republic Ministry of Intelligence, who was secretly meeting with Satine in the lower levels of Coruscant. During the meeting Davu handed Satine an original recording of the message Deputy Minister Jerec, after the Senate had seen an altered version earlier that same day. Fllowing Davu's death, Satine fleed in horror at the site of her dead friend, while Malek went in pursuit of her, to which he would unfortunately lose in the Coruscant crowd. Yet again, after locating her, Malek tried to kill her with a thermal detonator, but was thwarted by Obi-Wan Kenobi, although the blast separated the two. After landing from the building he had thrown the grenade from. Malek tried to finish her of with his blaster, but, yet again he was stopped by Kenobi, where the two engaged in a small fight. In the end, Malek was bested by the Jedi Master, and although he was thrown of a height by the Force, to which could've killed him, Malek ignited his jetpack and took flight, leaving whatever business that was bound to take place. Following this altercation, the Death Watch would later on break ties with the Separatists.

Marriage to Xasha Lazen

 * "Mhi solus tome, mhi solus dar'tome, mhi me'dinui an, mhi ba'juri verde."(We are one when together. we are one when parted. We will share all. We will raise warriors)
 * -Malek and Xasha during their marriage

After leaving the the Separatists, Malek left the Death Watch once more to meet with Xasha Lazen on Concord Dawn. Upon meeting her, Malek met with the surprise that she had recently given birth to a baby boy. Malek had arrived just a day after her child's birth, and was shocked to see that she became pregnant upon their interaction on Mandalore a year earlier. Heading to the infirmary,  Malek and Xasha were glad to see each other, while his sister Mirta looked at the two with a disappointed look. First angry at him, Xasha told Malek that what went through their minds to something like that, but before he could answer, Xasha said that it was their love for one another and that they hadn't planned on what would happened. Calming down, Mirta said that she would accept the fact on the two marrying. Tearing happily, Xasha hugged Malek and told him that if he wanted they could get married now. Asking first her hand, Xasha agreed with tears in her eyes, and the two would share a kiss. Taking his son up, Malek said "As of now my son, your name is Boba Kriya. You carry the name of my first father, and the last name of my new family, and I hope you will honor it. Mirta then told that she would prepare the wedding for the two. After two weeks of preparing, Malek and Xasha were happily married, and much to Xasha's surprise, Mirta told her she accepted her now as one of her family, for she felt bad on their recent quarrels. Hugging his sister and wife, Malek said that the bond and friendship between their clans was now stronger since they became united. Kissing Xasha once more, Malek said that this was the happiest moment of his life, and Xasha alike. Knowing that his mission forced him to be somewhere else, and her alike, Mirta said she would take care of their son while they were away, but Xasha had to stay for a year, until Boba would be of age. Already prepared, Malek left Concord Dawn a week later to continue his duties.

Mission to Umbara

 * "Such a gloomy and dark planet."
 * "That's Umbara for you Malek."
 * "Yes, I can see that."
 * -Malek and a fellow Mandalorian on Umbara

Two weeks after his marriage to Xasha, Malek joined the Mandalorian Guild in heading to the planet of Umbara for a series of training exercises. Led by General Redspark Holocron, Malek, along with several other Mandalorians went of to the planet to begin their training sessions. However, in this case, Malek would encounter the Umbarans for the first time in his life. He would then accompany the Guild in three bunker missions. Each were tasked in elminating Ennodius, Commander Krussk, Gunner Mrash and Medic Skrisst. Along with Lady Katniss, and Booster, Malek helped his two commanding mandalorians in eliminating them, as even finishing of several Trandoshan pirates. Malek remained on the planet and helped eliminate several CIS droids.

Member of the Nite Owls

 * "The name is Malek Kriya. What's yours?"
 * "I am Bo-Katan. Nice to meet you Malek. Welcome to the Nite Owls."
 * "Thank you Bo-Katan it will be an honor to serve you."
 * -Bo-Katan and Malek meet each other for the first time

After the Umbaran mission, Malek went of to meet the Nite Owls, a squad of elite soldiers within the Death Watch. It was given to him under orders of Pre Vizsla. Uopn meeting them, he was greeted by a female Mandalorian of the Nite Owls who would take him to see their leader, but was first greeted by other Nite Owl members. He then met Bo-Katan who welcomed him to their squad. Many of the soldiers within the faction held Malek in high regard because of his exceptional skills in fighting and with shooting. Becoming a now full-pledged member of the Nite Owls, Malek would become third-in-command under Bo. For the next two and a half months, Malek worked alongside Bo-katan, and in secret, his wife Xasha, whom he was unaware was also a member of the Nite Owls, thus the female Mandalorian who had welcomed him to the base and squad. Aside from this, Malek also partook in several missions with the Mandalorian Guild, of which, many involved attacking the Death Watch, or other rivaling Mandalorian factions and groups. Because time was already moving at it's own pace, during this particular moment, the Death Watch was still affliated with the Separatists, which kept Malek in doing any more work with the Owls. Malek would then spent a month away from the Nite Owls, because he took many bounty hunting missions for the Separatists, but after Pre Vizsla Death met with Dooku in person. the Death Watch leader broke ties with Dooku and the Separatists and vowed to kill the Count, and ended Malek's works for the Separatist. On the run, the Death Watch found refuge on the planet Carlac, holding the local Ming Po hostage while pillaging their villages for women and supplies.

Ties broken and rejoining the Nite Owls

 * "Malek, nice to see you again, welcome back to the Nite Owls."
 * "Thank you Bo-Katan, it will be nice to serve alongside you once more."
 * -Bo-Katan welcomes Malek back into the Nite Owls

After the failed attempt in taking Mandalore, Malek along with several Death Watch soldiers, including Vizsla broke ties with Dooku and the Separatists, and despite the fact Vizsla vowed to kill the Count, Malek took little importance on the subject, and instead continued to carry on his duties. Unknown to Vizsla, Malek had joined the Nite Owls a year earlier, to which he would rejoin after the Death Watch took refuge on the planet of Carlac, however, Malek already had other plans. One day, in the dark of the night, Malek switched his Nite Owl armor to his orginal bounty hunter armor and left the camp.

Weeks before the Death Watch had formed an alliance with Lux Bonteri, son of the late Mina Bonteri, Malek returned to the Mandalorian Guild. Several times, Malek would take secret information from Death Watch, as he would even hunt down several of it's members, which he would get a price for from other Mandalorian warriors, whose names are unknown. However before leaving, Malek met up with Xasha again, who came up behind him by surprise, who was crying happily upon seeing him. Removing each one's helmet, Malek and Xasha kissed, where the two showed expression on how glad they were to see each other, since he had been gone for another year. Xasha knew that Malek had to go on another mission for the Mandalorian Guild, and said she was happy, for while she worked for the Nite Owls, she was taking care of their child. Malek smiled and kissed Xasha again, saying that the promise he made was closer than they expected, as was about to be fulfilled. Crying again, the two shared another kiss. Grabbing his helmet, Xasha put on Malek's helmet and told him to take his time, for she would fill in his place, and when Malek asked how, she smiled and said that she already knew, and it was best for him not to know. Embracing one last time, Malek put on Xasha's helmet and the two went towards their respected places to complete their missions. Although married, Malek and Xasha knew they wouldn't be fully together until they finished their missions. When Malek returned to the Mandalorian Guild, he would remain with the Mandalorian faction until after Lux Bonteri and Ahsoka Tano escaped the Death Watch.

Skirmish on Carlac

 * "Malek, Jate, you are both with me!"
 * "Yes Sir."
 * "Yes Sir"
 * -Malek, Jate, and Red before attacking the Death Watch

Once Malek had returned to the Mandalorian Guild, he would help them out in a mission which involved attacking the Death Watch. Knowing this was his chance in finishing of Pre Vizsla, Malek helped the guild in coordinating the attack. Under the command of General Redspark Holocron, Malek joined Red, along with Jate Ordo in the first mission. Armed with his primary sniper rifle and Darksaber, Malek, Red and Jate, the three Mandalorian warriors charged on the village and began their mission. Cursing the Death Watch in Mando'a, Malek prepared himself and vowed he would protect his vode, no matter the cost. Surprisingly, the Death Watch were unaware of the attack.

Captive Village

 * "They provide no challenge. The Death Watch are weak."
 * -Malek during the attack on the Death Watch

As soon as the mission went underway, Malek, Jate and Red charged on the Death Watch, shooting down anyone who got in their way. Using hatred to allign his targets, Malek showed little difficulty in killing the Death Watch Elite soldiers with a single shot back-to-back without wasting a breath. As the three Mandalorians massacred several members, they would see that the Death Watch was waiting for them, and were putting up enough resistance to say they weren't gonna give up the village for it was there's and that they wouldn't even give up to the Republic. Upon reaching the center of the village, the three met one of the three Death Watch lieutenants, who was named Kherr Dawar. A strong female, Kherr would fight the three warriors in a three-on-one handicap duel. Throughout the fight, Malek taunted the female lieutenant, causing her to get mad. Relying on several martial arts tactics, and also his rifle, with Red and Jate, the three managed to defeat and kill Kherr with three shots to the chest. After this, Republic LAAT'S came in to help by putting out fires, allowing them to gain further access of the Ming Po village. As they advanced the three Mandalorian Guild warriors knew they were getting closer to Pre Vizsla's location, as seen on their helmets HUD. After fending of against Kro Lann and Mord Jayran, they went to confront Vizsla. Vizsla was however unknown that he was being attacked by Malek, who days leader, which was also unknown to the Death Watch leader. Revealing his own Darksaber, Pre was shocked upon seeing that there were two darksaber blades, and not one as he had believed. Using brute force, and Malek alike, he clashed his darksaber with Vizsla while speaking to him in Mando'a, as even Concordian. This confused Pre Vizsla, but he did not care. Almost injuring Red and Jate with the blade, Malek drew his attention long enough for Red to take the final blow in knocking out Vizsla with his EE-3 Carbine Rifle by a blow to the head. However, Vizsla was picked up by Bo-Katan who fled with the Death Watch leader. Disappointed, Malek knew that only one good thing came out, which was that the main village had been saved along with the remaining Ming Po. After this, Malek would continue to help out the guild in numerous attacks on the Death Watch. After three weeks, Malek returned to his mission in infiltrating the Death Watch and killing Vizsla. Departing, Malek took of to meet up with the Death Watch in a given location.

Taking back Mandalore

 * "These Sith say they can help us take Mandalore. I see it as an opportunity to complete the task I set out for so long."
 * "What is that sir?"
 * "To kill Pre Vizsla. And know that you now you must die"
 * "WHAT? No, please don't"(blasts fired)
 * "Since I told me, you had to die, and I'm not sorry."
 * -Malek kills a Mandalorian after telling him his intentions of killing the Death Watch leader

A broken alliance

 * "Wow, who knew, Sith Lords, interesting. I wonder what it is that they plan".
 * "We will have to wait, see and hear. But I don't trust them, not one bit, and soon they will die."
 * "I don't either, but no matter how much I hate Vizsla, I agree with him on betraying them and killing them, but we are gonna have to be careful with these two Sith. They are stronger than they look. One thing that Vizsla does is that he underestimates others. I don't. That is why I am careful around these Zabraks. I have killed dark-side users before, but these two, I'm not so sure."
 * "So you think it would be hard to kill them?
 * "Yes, the Force is their advantage, while we have nothing, which is what they believe. For our advantage is something we each know, but are not all the same. Like some, I can resist many types of Force attacks, or as one can say, Jedi Mind tricks.
 * "Well that can benefit us."
 * "Yes it can, but right now let's focus on our mission, and on how we will kill them."
 * -Malek and Bo-Katan discuss about the fate of Maul and Savage

Some time after the Carlac mission, Malek joined Vizsla on an expedition in space. While roaming they came across a ship, to which held both Maul and Savage in it's cockpit. Both siblings had already claimed themselves as Dark Lords of the Sith, but were critically wounded following their defeat against Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. Taking the two Sith brothers with them, the Death Watch brought them to their base on the swamp moon of Zanbar. Due to Malek's skills in contructing items, he provided Maul with new cybernetic legs, replacing the ones made by Mother Talzin and a artificial substitute for Savage's severed arm. Since both Maul and Vizsla had a common enemy, the two formed an unstable alliance, focused on taking down Obi-Wan. Malek had no intention of getting involved with the Jedi, although he found that this would be the perfect chance to kill Vizsla. Revealing his intentions to another Death Watch member, to avoid problems, Malek shot the Mandaorian in the head and took his body and threw it into a swamp.

Mustafar Mission
Shortly after the formation of the alliance between Maul and Vizsla, the Death Watch leader was already bent and ready on attacking Mandalore, as he also had men standing by him and waiting on the planet. However, Maul stated that they weren't ready, and to do a successful attack, he suggested in enlisting the Black Sun, who were located on the planet of Mustafar. Malek would join Vizsla, in addition with other Death Watch members in traveling the the planet. Upon arrival, they met with the leaders of the Black Sun, in which they were escorted by Ziton Moj to meet with them. After a small audience with the Black Sun leaders, both Maul and Vizsla were mocked, only to later on be killed at the hands of Savage Opress by throwing is lightsaber, decapitating them all. After this, Ziton decided to join Maul's alliance. Due to the Black Sun joining the Death Watch as well, the splinter group had now gained the supplies that they needed for their cause. Later returning to Zanbar, Maul and Vizsla both argued on their visions of taking control of all Mandalore, but of course their was only one vision of success, to which Maul preferred his, and the only choice Vizsla did was quietly subject to Maul's orders, but began to plot matters into his own hands. Shortly after their discussion, the Pyke Syndicate under the leadership of Lom Pyke said he was wiling to join them, since he had no desire to oppose Maul.

Mission on Nal Hutta
Once the Pyke's joined Maul's newly formed Shadow Collective, the next step in the plan was to head to Nal Hutta, where they now seeked to enist the Hutt Grand Council to their cause. Things wouldn't go as planned as negotiations would be a complete failure, bounty hunters appeared from their hiding spots and began pursuing iring at the brothers and Vizsla, while Malek, Bo-Katan and her Nite Owls were awaiting the return of the two. In return Malek began firing at the bounty hunters holding them back, killing several Hutt guards easily without even moving, as only to later engage them in unarmed combat, where he easily beat Sugi as Savage took care of Embo, and killed the remaining Hutt guards by shooting or by breaking their neck.Dengar and Latts Razzi were also easily beaten by Malek, but since he was on a strict schedule, he decided to let them live. The bounty hunters were then able to flee safely, although Oruba was captured in the aftermath. Wirth his last words, the Hutt told the Death Watch warriors and the Sith Lord brothers on where Jabba had taken refuge. Sayingthat Jabba had fled to Tatooine, under orders from Maul, Opress killed Oruba, while Malek took care of destroying the palace completely.

Final Mission, Tatooine
After learning that the Hutts had fled to Jabba's Palace the Zabrak brothers and the Death Watch launched a mini attack, where they were giving Jabba one last chance to join them, or he will die. Now at the hands of the Shadow Collective, jabba and the Hutts were amazed at how they performed in action, and in doing so, the Hutts agreed to join them. Not amazed at all, Malek left the palace only to catch up to both Vizsla and Bo, who were planning on taking over Mandalore after they finished of both Savage and Maul. Malek simply smiled at Vizsla words, and even agreed with him, but as soon as Vizsla and Bo-Katan left the area to prepare the ships, Malek smiled, and said in Mando'a, "Vizsla, Ib'tuur jatne tuur ash'ad kyr'amur".

The Mandalore Takeover

 * "Mandalore is now ours. After years of waiting we have proclaimed our home and returned the true Mandalorian faith. And now with Satine's rule at an end, I am now proclaim myself as Mand'alor."
 * -Pre Vizsla to the Death Watch

After the formation of the Shadow Collective Maul began forcing his leadership upon the Death Watch, which now left both Bo-Katan and Pre Vizsla plotting the deaths of both Maul and Savage, as also Malek agreed to participate in taking their lives. While the "army" attacked various targets across the capital city of Sundari, causing havoc and terror. Under orders, Vizsla and Death Watch were sent to "capture" the Sith brothers and to bring them to justice, as even acting as saviors. Through an act of manipulation and lies, Vizsla quickly gained the people' support by demonstrating that Duchess couldn't protect them anymore. Later, Kryze was arrested by both Malek and Bo-Katan, while Vizsla took the chance to have the two Sith brothers arrested and had them sent to Sundari prison. Naturally, Vizsla stated he had no intention of spreading their success to the other 2,000 neutral systems. Showing his honor, Vizsla said that he would still finish of what they agreed with eariler, which was to remove Kenobi, and that Maul would have no choice and to the submit to the Death Watch's leader's rule.

Death of Vizsla

 * "I would have preferred shooting Vizsla, but not killing him in that extent."
 * "Change of heart, eh, Malek?"
 * "No, but I have a formal way of killing my enemies"
 * "It's true Bo, I have known Malek for a long time, and his executions don't involve such a brutal kill."
 * "Who are you?"
 * "I am Xasha Lazen, and like Malek here, I also joined the Death Watch, and later, the Nite Owls. I did it for the same reason. My hate for Vizsla began he killed my parents, because they stood against them. They were true Mandalorians. Me and Malek will help you in removing both Maul and Vizsla, but that's it.
 * -Xasha Lazen reveals herself to Bo-Katan, after Malek reveals on how his intentions deffer from that of others

After the two brothers were imprisoned, Vizsla took the title of Mand'alor, claiming it was rightfully his. However, all were unaware on how easy both Maul and Savage were able to escape, with an extra hand, who was none other than Almec, the former Prime Minister of Mandalore. After they escaped and reached the palace, they entered the throne room, where Maul instantly challenged Vizsla to a duel, and Vizsla would accept. Similar to his duel with Obi-Wan Kenobi, Vizsla used his jetpack, blaster pistols, grenades and his Darksaber to gain an advantage over the Sith Lord. However, although he was able to hold out against Maul, it would not be enough to defeat the Sith Lord, and Maul would prove victorious. On his knees, and at the mercy of Maul, Vizsla said his finals words, which were "Like you said, only the strongest shall rule" and accepted his death.

Infiltration and Prelude to Mandalore's fall
Prior to the battle, Malek had previously disguised himself as a Mandalorian super commando in order to help his new allies. Following Vizsla's death, Malek knew that he had no choice but to join Bo, since the Death Watch faction was particularly still alive. Shortly after some members of the Death Watch sided with Maul, in the dark of night, Malek sneaked behind one Mandalorian super commando and killed him by breaking his neck. Taking the armor, and disguising the dead one in his armor, Malek brought the body to Maul and told him that this Mandalorian was trying to sneak in the castle to kill the Sith Lord, but he was able to finish him of. Maul would believe the story and gave him the rank of commander, which allowed him to be second in charge in the super commandos. However, when Korkie Kryze tried to rescue his aunt Duchess Satine Krye, Bo-Katan aided in the escape, to which was revealed that she was Satine's sister. As they escaped, Malek noticed several Mandalorian commandos, who contacted one another, and would quickly contact Bo and Xasha (secretly), who prepared themselves to fight. However the rescue failed, causing Malek returned to Bo-Katan where he regained his armor back, and would later take the fight to the traitorous Mandalorians. Some time later, Obi-Wan was captured by the Mandalorian super commandos, after he himself also failed to rescue Satine Kryze. During Obi-Wan's capture, Satine was brutally killed by Maul, who used the Darksaber in order to torture and get back at Obi-Wan, since he had no desire to kill him. Knowing that they had to rescue the Jedi Master, Malek went of with Bo-Katan of to the Sundari prison. During this situation, Xasha revealed herself to the Nite Owls and remaining Death Watch member.

Battle of Sundari

 * "This was a costly battle, we lost a lot of great men. No matter how much I hate the Death Watch, these who fought for Mandalore didn't deserve it. They died with honor."
 * "I say the same. Sadly some members of our clans Malek fought as well, and died. They were our Vode, who showed what it meant to be a true Mandalorian.
 * "Bo, we are sorry for your sister. There was nothing we could do."
 * "It's not your fault. She died for what was right, as did our warriors."
 * "We will continue fighting alongside you, as vode."
 * "(Malek and Xasha) It was an honor to serve under you, and meet you Bo."
 * "Likewise, Malek and Xasha"
 * -Malek, Xasha and Lazen during the Battle of Sundari

Arriving at the prison, Malek, the newly revealed Xasha and Bo-Katan saw Obi-Wan being escorted by the super commandos. Devising a quick plan, the Nite owls, and few remaining Death Watch soldiers ambushed the commandos, with Malek killing of three of them, one by shooting him in the face, and another by causing his jetpack to go out of control and crash into a nearby ship. Bo then handed Obi-Wan an extra jetpack, in order for them to leave the prison and fight of against Maul's Shadow Collective. Flying through the buildings and skies of Sundari, they battled against several commandos, each shooting and killing one another at a fast pace, suffering heavy casualties, which was the same for the city below. After finally engaging them in the hangar, which lead towards the Sundari docks, a giant door opened to reveal Sundari in ruins. Joining Bo-Katan in helping Obi-Wan being escorted of the planet, Malek knew now that the Death Watch was very similar to any other Mandalorian group, except the fact that they were all different in views, but it would still not change or relieve his hate for the Death Watch, including Bo-Katan, whom he would ironically end up becoming friends with. After Obi-Wan left, Malek kept fighting alongside Bo and Xasha who were hoping that they could one day rebuild their planet back to how it was.

Leaving the Death Watch and return to the Kriya Clan & Mandalorian Guild

 * "It's time for us to go home Xasha. We have done al that we can here."
 * "Are you sure Malek?"
 * "Yes, Mandalore will be rebuilt, and on that day we will return."
 * "You promise Malek?" (grabs hold of Maleks hands tightly)
 * "(embraces Xasha) I promise Xasha."
 * -Malek and Xasha shortly before leaving Sundari

After the near destruction of Sundari, Malek and Xasha decided to leave the planet of Mandalore to go back to their respective clans. Upon their return to Concord Dawn, both Malek and Xasha were greeted by their clans, welcoming for their partial success, although they weren't the ones who killed Vizsla. Once he returned, Malek was greeted by his sister, who was now taking care of their son, after Xasha brought him to her, a day before the Battle of Sundari. Mirta offered to return his title of leadership, but Malek would however not decide to take head of the clan a second time, because he felt he had more to do in the galaxy and see other places, such as rejoining the Mandalorian Guild, for they were also his family, and that he had me them a promise. Accepting his leave, Malek told Mirta that he knows she would always be a great leader, in not only protecting the clan, but leading the children in the right way. After this, Malek and Xasha had left Concord Dawn with thier son Boba Kriya. Leaving Concord Dawn, Malek traveled to the Mandalore sector, where he would meet up with three fellow Mandalorian Guildwarriors. Upon returning to the headquarters of the Mandalorian Guild, he was welcomed back by his fellow Mandalorians, as seeing that he had completed the mission he started several years ago. However, Malek still vowed to destroy the final remaining members of the Death Watch, and whenever new ones would join it. Stationing his home, Malek and Kriya were able tor aise their son properly by several other Mandalroian warriors who would help train their son. Right after his return, Malek was flying around the base, where he would find a Mandalorian super commando, who had survived the Battle of Sundari, and was seemingly looking for someone to kill, therefore, the target was Malek himself. When he got closer, Malek could see that it was the captain of the commandos. Malek's presence would not go unnoticed, for he would be shot down by the Mandalorian captain, who would injure him on his arm. Left only to defend himself, Malek took up one of his lightsabers in defense, whilst the captain took out a blaster. Deflecting several blasts, Malek was able to charge onto the commando and destroy his blaster. Flipping behind him, Malek snapped the neck of the Mandalorian and would take his armor for his own, which he would demonstrate to the guild. Malek was then allowed to wear the armor for his own, and with it Malek would wear the armor throughout the final year of the Clone Wars, and throughout the early years of the Galactic Empire.

Fighting for the Guild

 * "The Mando Ver'verd'tsad is my home. I am a part of it, and I stay strong to our Mandalorian beliefs'. I have said this before and I will say it again. I am a Mandalorian! Vode An!"
 * -Malek upon his return to the Mandalorian Guild

Shortly after his return to the guild, Malek took part in several missions throughout the galaxy. A few weeks after the Battle of Sundari, Malek restarted his careers as an assassin, in which he would often get the most difficult of targets, to which many were corrupt senators, traitors, and other assassins alike. Nevertheless, Malek would complete the missions without wasting a single breath, to which he would often recieve high payments for. While away, Malek contacted Xasha several times, promising her tht one day he would come and visit her, for at the time being he wasn't able to because of his numerous back-to-back tasks. As months past, Malek's identity started to become more known to the galaxy, and was put on the galaxies most wanted list. A fully feared Mandalorian, Malek had now become what his father had always wanted for him, which was a True Mandalorian. Aside from this, Malek fought several battles against other Mandalorian groups who had hate for the guild. This was seen several times on Ryloth, Felucia and on Umbara. During this time, Malek would also learn a lot of battle styles, and shooting techniques from his Vode in the guild, since he was amongst the youngest ones. Through more battle and assassinations, with the guidance of his vode and the guild, Malek would evolve into the one of most fearsome Zenolian ever. Malek himself stated that he was glad for all his vode in helping him, as they advanced his abilities in shooting, fighting in unarmed combat, and started to gain a much more brutal tactic whenever he fought against enemies of the guild. Malek was most noted in the guild for his fast learning, quick talents, master manipulator, cunning, as even a great strategist.

Mission to Maridun

 * "I will pay you five million credits if you get rid of this senator for me, please."
 * "Make it an even six million and you got yourself a bounty hunter."
 * "Deal. Thank you sir."
 * -Malek is contracted by a Twi'Lek counselor to kill a corrupt Republic Senator

Once Malek became the galaxy's most wanted Mandalorian mercenary, he decided to to take a break from the action, as such he earned a well deserved rest. Malek however was not afraid that he would be caught, in which he thought it would be a good idea to let the Republic think he was long gone. While Malek rested with his wife in the headquarters of the Mandalorian Guild, tending to the vehicles and weapons alike, as even upgrading them, and he was even taking care of his son often giving Xasha some time to herself in resting or in partaking several missions. Malek later received a message from an unknown assailant who was requesting his help. Malek would answer the message and meet his contractor on the planet of Maridun.

Once he landed and picked out his personal sniper rifle, Malek met up with a Twi'Lek counselor of the Galactic Republic. Because of this mission, Malek now knew that he wouldn't be able to keep himself from doing his bounty hunting job, which was what kept a notable figure within the Mandalorian Guild, Kriya Clan, and previously, the Death Watch. Uusing a holo-map, from within his helmet, Malek discovered the location of the corruptive Republic senator, who was visiting a Separatist informant on the planet. Climbing up a small home, Malek armed his sniper rifle and took aim at the senator, and although the senator's ally wasn't part of the deal, Malek decided it was best to kill him as well, so there wouldn't be any witnesses. Shooting twice, Malek killed both the senator and his Separatist ally. Killing both successfully, Malek received his payment, and returned to the Guild Headquarters, now under the leadership of Beviin Kabur.

Mission to Felucia

 * "The things that I have done is done. Care not for that, for what you have to face is right in front of you."
 * "The actions of our guild matter not right now. We are helping you now and that's all that matters. After this, we each can go back to our business. Understood!
 * "Yes sir!"
 * "We clear on everything."
 * "Yes sir!"
 * "We may be different spieces, but in the end we are all Vode."
 * "Vode An!" (Malek)
 * "Vode An!" (Andrea)
 * "Vode An! (clone troopers)
 * -Malek and Andrea with several clone troopers

Shortly after the reformation of the Mandalorian Guild, alongside several members, Malek headed to the planet of Felucia. After landing on the planet, Malek and several other Mandalorians received an incoming transmission from a clone commando named Boss, who was informing them of the situation. Seeing it as a chance to help the Galactic Republic for a good price, Malek agreed to help them, setting aside the problems he had caused on the Republic's capital of Coruscant, Malek was acquainted of all charges against him by Supreme Chancellor Palpatine via a hologram to the entire Galactic Senate much to the disappointment of Naboo Senator Padmé Amidala, and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker. Once this was done, alongside fellow guild member Andrea Deveraux, and several clone troopers, the two Mandalorians marched onto Separatists gained territory of the planet on their speeders, to which they then would receive information from Boss once more telling them the locations of several droid bases in the area, and that their were several rancors, and eventually, both would take the warning into consideration, due to how dangerous rancors are.

Malek and Andrea would lead their troopers into a battle with several newly upgraded Separatists droids, who had strong armor than most, to which would end up causing the two Mandalorians to lose several of their men, but were still able to destroy the advancing troops. After this, Malek left to meet another fellow Mandalorian named Jaws Ordo, since Andrea had to return the few remaining troops to a medical base.

Before rendezvousing with Jaws, Malek would be attacked by a rancor, which was sent out by the Separatists. Unaware at first, Malek would instantly be attacked by a quick arm swipe sending him flying towards a giant plant. Losing his blaster by the impact, Malek had no chance in reaching it since the rancor crushed it when it started to run towards him. Pulling out his blasters, Malek shot the rancor several times, and got to the point where he shot it's eyes out. Before he could do anything else, two blasts came and hit the rancor in the chest, which would eventually kill it. Jaws had come to aid Malek who had slightly injured his right leg by the blow, but still decided to fight on. After the two Mandalorians met up with Jedi Knight Ana Zett, who would give each of them a mission. Malek was ordered to pick up several samples of blue mushrooms that would benefit the production of clone troopers in order to help the Republic. After picking up all six samples, Malek brought them to the Republic base, so they could later be brought to Kamino for examination and testing. Knowing he would stay longer than usual, Malek would return to his ship and pick up several weapons, and such were the Shadow Tech rifle, Warlord pistols, and some thermal grenades. After doing so, he got back on his speeder and hurried back to the base, but was unexpectedly attacked by three droids, who fired at him, hitting his speeder, causing it to go out of control, and send him crashing. Luckily he used his jetpack to escape the damaged speeder before it had crashed. Picking up several incoming droids on his scanners, Malek drew up his blasters and began shooting. Knowing he was still far away from the base, he decided not to contact them, for he didn't want them to lose any troopers. Knowing he was outnumbered, Malek cared not, and continued to blast down several droids that came in his way. However, because he was focusing on the droids only, Malek was unaware that General Grievous was coming behind him on his speeder. While more droids approached Malek's location, he began to notice that there were boxing him in for a reason, and before he could turn around, Grievous grabbed him and slammed him down. Getting up, Malek saw the cyborg general, and instantly challenged him to a duel. Taking out his darksabers, Malek would be surprised upon seeing the Separatist General take out four blades, revealing four arms. Still, Malek went in and charged onto Grievous.

Duel with Grievous

 * "Hahahaha, you may not be a Jedi, but your lightsabers will be perfect to add to my collection."
 * I don't think so General. I am full of surprises. If I am able to withstand my own against Jedi and Sith, I can stand against some factory made trash."
 * -Malek and Grievous during their duel

Spinning his blades around with speed, Grievous also charged onto Malek and engaged him in their first duel on Felucia. Because of the general's newly added features, Malek had a hard time holding out against Grievous, but eventually managed to put a strong defense and quick offense, almost gaining the advantage many times. However, Grievous managed to disarm Malek's left arm by a strong blow, and took the advantage, by applying three blades onto his remaining darksaber and used the last one to slice him on the legs, eventually cutting them of through the use of cho mok''. Believing the Mandalorian to be completely defenseless, 'Grievous prepared to kill Malek, until a blast shot one lightsaber of one of his right hands. It was another fellow Mandalorian from the Mandalorian Guild. The female warrior kept firing at Grievous who would charge at her, and taking advantage Malek unleashed his Kade'vor Lightning on the General and pinned him to the groud. Once that was done, he unleashed a wave of lightning and threw at all the droids, destroying them. Barely moving, the female Mandalorian would help Malek to her speeder and brought him to the Republic base, where he would be taken to the infirmary to receive prosthetic legs.

After a few hours, Malek awoke, because he had been left unconscious by the amount of energy he used on the general and his droids. Seeing his new legs, Malek tested them out to see if they worked well, and he would easily gain the hang of it. After this, Malek was sent of to Felucia once more, where he was dropped of by two generals of the Mandalorian Guild. Once he landed, he was given his next mission, which involved taking out a Highsinger droid, that was responsible for the deaths and disappearances of several clone troopers. Malek would however not require the aid of clone troopers, because he believed that if they lured the assassin droid out by only sending him and some members of the guild he would come out to fight them, because it was only interested in strong opponents. Taking his hunter rifle, Malek left with four members of the guild to track the droid. After searching, General Red found the droid, and contacted everyone to come to his location. Arriving, Malek and his fellow guild members began firing at the assassin droid, who proved to be a far more dangerous opponent than it had been said by surviving clones. The Highsinger proved to withstand several blaster fire. Using his new legs, Malek displayed his use of martial arts against the assassin droid, but would do little damage as one punch would send him flying. One one knee Malek fired with his Warlord pistols, as the others with rifles, and after minutes of shooting and fighting, they were able to pin down the droid. But, still in power he threw a smoke bomb and escaped, leaving much of his weapons behind, and few Separatists plans that were on him. Malek picked it up and took flight in his jetpack and returned to the Republic base, and told the Mandalorians who had helped him that he would be back as soon as his job was done, and that the guild working for the Republic in this case benefited the guild only.

Secondary Stages

 * "Felucia is a pretty big planet, no lie about that."
 * -Malek during a misssion

After the Highsinger mission, Malek was assigned in bringing medical supplies to the site of a crashed LAAT west of the Separatists base. Malek would make quick work of the mission and any droids who came his way. Deliever the supplies, Malek made way to complete his next mission. After arriving on the Republic base, Malek was tasked with destroying a new B2 Assault droid, in order to see why it was tough to take down. Taking his Shadow Tech Rifle, Malek headed once more to the Separatist base and would later on locate the droid east of it's primary location. Moving silently towards the droid, Malek threw several thermal grenades around it to get it distracted as to which direction it was being attacked from. As soon as he confused it, Malek went and attack the B2 Assault droid, who was able to withstand any shot thrown at him for a short amount of time. Alerting other droids in the area, Malek took flight in his jetpack and shot down all the incoming droids, until he was able to get an easy shot on the droid. Aiming towards it's head, Malek fired and killed the droid. He then took the body to the Republic base so it could be studied, and determine why it had such tough armor.

Jedi aid

 * "Are you General Malek Kriya?"
 * "Yes I am, and you are Jedi Knight Ana Zett. Here's the piece you need to fix your lightsaber."
 * "Thank you, and continue to serve well."
 * "Always."
 * -Malek and Jedi Knight Ana Zett

After the droid mission, Malek was sent to help Jedi Knight Ana Zett with her lightsaber. Malek himself had no hate for the Jedi, nor he wanted to quarrel with them, but always found their battle tactics weak and ineffective, despite the fact they had given the Republic several victories. Getting the proper material for lightsaber construction, Malek went of in his speeder and traveled to Ana's location after she contacted him. Encountering several pirates on his way, who were working with the Separatists, Malek had no intention of being defeated, stopped, or killed by the Human, Zabrak and Twi'lek pirates. While riding his speeder, Malek shot down the incoming pirates with ease, using his Zenolian powers to drive his speeder. After traveling through the forests, Malek met up Jedi Knight Ana Zett and handed her the final piece needed for her lightsaber. Curious in how lightsabers were constructed, Malek stayed behind in seeing how it was done. Ana would agree and show him. After a few seconds, Ana fully constructed her lightsaber, which it would then work, prior to it not working. Receiving yet again another task, Malek departed and bid farewell to the Jedi wishing her the best of luck and that she continue serving her republic with honor. Malek then left and returned to the base.

Close enemies & Finishing touches

 * "We thank you for your work Malek. It was great serving under you."
 * "Likewise Boss, but you know I work for a price."
 * "Yes, and the fact that this benefited you, it also benefited us. I wish you well in your future."
 * "Thank you. Farewell Boss, and continue serving your Republic with honor. That's is what keeps it alive."
 * -Malek and Boss

Because of the overbearing missions, Malek was force to spent more than a week on Felucia in completing his final missions. One of the missions involved in gaining Intel from an astromech droid named RT-T3, but to do so he had to gather information by the Separatist base. Going with Spectra Phantom, the two went of in search of the base. Using their speeders, they would encounter several Sniper droidekas, B-1 battle droids, and BV-2 battle droids with tougher armor. Making quick work of them, Malek and Spectra were able to find the downed B-1 battle droid, which had been taken down by an electrical shock from RT-T3. After scanning the area, they determined that RT-T3 had left after being discovered and fled in order not to get caught by any other droids. Once more, they headed into the Felucian forest, where they found RT-T3 moving around in circles waiting for it's information to be collected, but noticing quickly, Malek shot down five incoming droids and then retrieved the info needed for the Republic. Thanking Spectra for his assistance, the two departed to their separate destinations, to continue carrying their missions. As soon as Malek returned to the base, a clone trooper came out of the blue and threw himself into the Mandalorian knocking him of his speeder, sending it crashing into a wall of the base, causing minimal damage, and a few injuries to clones who were near the area. Kicking him of, Malek got to his feet, and grabbed him lifting him of the ground and threw him in anger. Boss who had seen what happened ask the trooper why he did that, but he wouldn't answer. Instead he pulled out a blaster pistol and pointed it at Malek, threatening to kill him if he did anything. The trooper then said that he was jealous all the praise Malek was getting, and that it was not right they confide their trust into an enemy of the Republic. Malek then pulled out his pistol and told the clone that his actions were his own, thus was his job as a Mandalorian, and that he eventually had no quarrel with them and was looking to reinstate his Republic bounty hunting career. The trooper simply mocked Malek and continue saying he would kill him. Having no choice, and knowing it would hurt them, Malek instantly shot the trooper without moving, and quickly put his pistol away. Walking to his body, the trooper revealed to Malek that the reason he met so much resistance was because of him sending pieces of information to the Separatists on his location and where he would be, thus explained the reason on why he lost his legs, since he informed Grievous. Asking for forgiveness on his stubbornness and idiotic actions, Malek told him it was not needed for it wasn't his fault. He had left dark actions get the best of him. Saying a prayer in Mando'a, he told the trooper to die in and go in peace, which he would do. Malek was then given his payment and left Felucia with the Mandalorian Guild, where he would await for the Republic to contact him in the needs of his bounty hunting services.

Working wih Jabba the Hutt

 * "Jabba the Hutt, I hear you are in the needs of a bounty hunter. Will, I came hear to tell you, that I am one available for hire."
 * "I like you Malek, my personal bounty hunter you will be."
 * "Yes sir."
 * -Malek offers his bounty hunter services to Jabba the Hutt

A few weeks after Felucia, Malek was contacted by notorious Hutt crime lord Jabba the Hutt, who was in need of a personal bounty hunter. Accepting his offer, Malek departed of the planet of Tatooine. Taking his personal speeder, Malek left his ship and went in search of Jabba the Hutt's palace. Searching across the desert wasteland of the planet, Malek found Jabba the Hutt's palace, which was located not to far from where he had landed. Speeding, Malek wasted no time in meeting the Hutt crime lord, for he would recieve a wealthy payment just by accepting in becoming his bounty hunter. Once he arrived in front of the palace, where he was greeted by two Gamorrean guards who were going to welcome him to the palace. However, another guard came out and went to attack Malek, becuase of his hate for humans. Not even surprised or shocked, Malek grabbed the Gamorrean's neck and lifted him up and broke it, killing the guard. Malek then entered and met Jabba, who would pay him one million credits. Accepting to become his personal bounty hunter, Malek began to work for Jabba. After this, Malek became the most paid bounty hunter in galactic history, until he was bested by Boba Fett for the title of best bounty hunter in the galaxy. Malek would become Jabba's personal bounty hunter until 8 BBY, which would be when he was betrayed by Jabba who would leave him to die at the hands of the rancor. Malek was able to escape with his life after putting the rancor to sleep. During his time with Jabba, Malek also took bounties for the Republic.

Final Republic bounties

 * "The Republic paid me well. Being a bounty hunter has it's usefulness in many ways."
 * -Malek on his role as a bounty hunter for the Republic

By the end of 20 BBY, Malek had already taken eight bounties for the Republic, as most of it involved attacking Separatist Dreadnaughts, which were always a success, managing to destroy them as well. As 19 BBY, crept itself into history, Malek began to work less for the Republic, due to the constant battles often occurring one after another. Two months later, Malek would eventually meet with the Jedi Council and Galactic Senate for the last time announcing, that he was breaking ties with them, for he decided it would be best for them to focus on the final stages of the war. It would eventually hurt the senate knowing they lost their greatest source of Intel, but Malek was offered one final bounty, which he would take. Ordered in attacking a local Separatist base, Malek was offered 600,000 credits, plus an extra 400,000 if he managed to destroy it. Pleasing them in less than five hours after receiving the mission, Malek was given his last payment, and left Coruscant wishing them the best.

Fall of the Republic

 * I did not expect this to happen."
 * "Neither did I Malek. What do we do now?"
 * "We pledge our services to the Galactic Empire."
 * "Ok, we will do that"
 * -Malek and Xasha decide to work for the Galactic Empire

In 19 BBY, after Malek and Xasha finished their work for the Galactic Republic once, and having recieved several payments for thier attacks on Separatists bases, Xasha returned to Concord Dawn to continue rasing their son, while Malek returned to the Mandalorian Guild. A few weeks later, the Galactic Republic would end when Order 66 was initiated. This began the near-extermination of the Jedi. Having a strong respect for the Jedi, Malek aided several Jedi and escaping while he killed of several clone troopers. Alongside Xasha, the two saved almost a dozen Jedi trapped in the temple, and because of this action their presence went unnoticed by the Sith Lord Darth Vader, since they disguised it by using their Zenolian powers. Up until this time, Xasha had revealed that she was also Zenolian from her mother's side. Seeing that they could no longer work for the Republic, Malek and Xasha decided to work for the Galactic Empire, after Palpatine offered to pay them well, and that he would have them acquitted of the charges they were gonna be delivered upon helping the Jedi, during the initial stages for Order 66.

Joining the Empire

 * "You two have served me well, just like Boba Fett."
 * "Thank you, my Lord."
 * "I have further uses for you."
 * "What is our mission?"
 * "There is a vital outpost on the planet of Felucia, that works for the Rebellion. Find them and destroy it. Wipe them out, all of them. Men, women and children alike."
 * "Yes sir."
 * (under her breath) "We can't kill children Malek."
 * "I know Xasha. Just follow what I do."
 * "Never Sidious. We will not kill children. They have no part in this."
 * "Either you kill them or die."
 * "We prefer to die then massacre innocent children."
 * -Emperor Palpatine gives Malek and Xasha another mission, before the two retaliate aginst him

Pledging their full services to the Empire, Malek and Xasha  became full-time bounty hunters and assassins. While taking on assignments for the Empire, at the same time, Malek also took several missions for Jabba the Hutt and the Mandalorian Guild. Malek and Xasha would for for the Empire for almost 18 years. Also, in 18 BBY, Malek's adopted mother, Miranda Kriya, died in her sleep after suffering from an illness. It would disappoint and give Malek grief, but he knew that he had to move on, and let her rest, just like his parents and also adopted father. After he was able to relieve himself from a small fracture of depression, Malek went back to his business with the Empire.

During their time with the Empire, Malek and Xasha gave birth to their second child, whom they would name Mirta "Miranda" Kriya. To avoid confusion, they nicknamed her "Mir-Manda". Despite being heavily tasked with jobs, they took the time in training their daughter. Ordered in attacking several remaining Jedi survivors, the two agreed with the price of money, and always came back successful. During this time, Malek and Xasha's Zenolian powers increased the more they used it when fighting Jedi. This came to the concern of both Vader and Sidious, knowing that the two bounty hunters could replace them in due time, but Malek and Xasha cared not for the Empire, for they only cared about always getting paid. Having partaked in over 800 missions by 1 BBY, Malek and Xasha were called upon the Emperor, who tasked them with their most difficult task ever. Ordered in attacking a vital Rebellion outpost, Sidious told them to kill all inhabitants, which involved children. Knowing they had children of their own, whom the two had been taking care of while with the Empire, they did not want other parents to suffer upon the death of their child. Officially breaking ties with the Empire, Malek and Xasha left to continue taking care of the children and in partaking several missions with the Guild once more, after being unavailable for two years. However in 7 ABY, the Mandalorian Guild was fragmented, causing Malek and his wife Xasha to split ways from their vode who they had worked with in the guild for a long time.

Return and war with the Rikan Clan (1 BBY- 8 ABY)

 * "For years my clan fought against you, yet you still returned. I give you credit on that, but nothing more."
 * "Why thank you Zatar, or should i now say Malek, what happened to your parents? Awwww did they die? So sad, and oh, how's your amazing daughter. HAHAHAHAHAHA! She's an amazing dancer.
 * "Watch what you say. Say that again and you die. No one makes fun of my grandparents, or does that to my daughter."
 * "Oh well, should have told me sooner. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
 * "Boba, on my comand leave, understood Ad (son)."
 * "Yes Buir (father)."
 * "Aww, are the(blast fired)"
 * "No one talks about my family, nor my daughter you trash".
 * -Malek kills the leader of the Rikan Clan after the latter insulted his parents and his daughter

A few months after falling out of league with the Empire, Malek would be invovled in one of the biggest Mandalorian Clan clashes in history. Returning to the Kriya Clan, Malek would meet up with his sister Mirta Kriya, after she had asked him to do so. Landing outside the newly built Kriya base, Malek would only discover that his daughter Mirta was in complete shock, after a recent encounter. Rarely moving, Malek went to see his daughter, who had locked herself in Malek's room. Malek asked why she was like this, but wouldn't be told, until Xasha got angry and picked up a fellow Kriya member named Zac Kriya demanding why Mirta was in shock. Scared at her reaction, Zac answered that she had been recently forced to dance as a slave dancer for entertainment, which was why they were out of contact and missing for two months, done by the leader of the Rikan Clan. Completely filled up with rage in an instant, Malek unleashed a piercing scream that caused the base to shake. Running of to Concordia, with the company of his son, the two went on to give the Rikan Clan a little surprise. Boba who had been driven by rage and hate, vowed to his father that he would wipe out the Rikan Clan. Xasha would only watch in tears as her husband and son left the planet, while her daughter was still shaking calling out for her family. Landing outside the entrance to the base of the Rikans, they were greeted none other by the leader himself, who was named Rien Rikan. Greeting them as if they were friends, Rien welcomed them to his home. However, several Mandalorian Rikans came out of nowhere and pinned Malek and Boba to the ground. Rien would then follow by having them escorted into the base, but not to hurt them. After being knocked out cold, and waking up a few minutes later. Rien would then start of by remembering the problems the Kriya and Morak clans caused his clan for hundreds of years, on how they were always humiliated by them. Malek would respond by congratulating him on how he had survived that long, but would later be infuriated when the Clan leader insulted Malek's dead parents (Boba and Elisa) and saying how he enjoyed hurting Malek's daughter Mirta the way he did. Angered, Malek threatened and told Rien to repeat it again, with Boba saying the same. However before Rien could say anything, Malek gave the order to his son and leave, and instantly pulling out a blaster, Malek shot and killed Rien by a shot to the head. Hearing this, many Rikans came to attack Malek, who would activate his jetpack and shoot down the Rkian warriors while breaking out the base, ending the Rikan ambush. Returning to their ship, Malek and his son Boba returned to Concord Dawn alerting both the Kriya and Lazen to prepare for war.

The war itself

 * "Dad, Mom, Brother, I'm sorry. I caused this war."(crying)
 * "Udesii Mirta. It's not your fault my daughter. Gra'tua has been running in my family for hundreds of years. Even until now it continues."
 * It's true my daughter. Your father's family, the Moraks were known for their vengenace that they brought on other clans. So please my daughter, don't be so hard on your self.
 * "Yeah Vod. Udesii Mirta. Remember, Ke nu'jurkadir sha Mando'ade!
 * "Right, me and Boba are your 'ade. We are all verd. I had forgotten that for a while. But no more. Let's take the fight to the Rikan hut'unn and sent them to 'haran.
 * "Lets.!"(Malek, Xasha and Boba)
 * -Malek, Xasha and Boba are able to reinstate Mirta's strength and confidence in herself and family

A month after the death of Rien Rikan, the Rikan Clan grew furious upon the death of their leader. Although they were able to gain a new leader, who was Rien's brother, named Jest Rikan, he was completely fueled with anger. The new found leader would declare war on both the Kriya and Lazen Clans, who had planned to annihilate them. The war between the three clans would be settled throughout several places however the three most known fights occurred on the most known Mandalorian planets. Splitting themselves up, the Kriya and Lazen clans would be stationed on Concord Dawn, Korda 6, Galidraan, and Concordia. While information on the war is mostly unknown, it is known that the Kriya and Lazen Clans suffered heavy losses, that led to their near-extinctions. Meanwhile, the Rikan Clan was completely destroyed once Jest Rikan was killed by Mirta "Miranda" Kriya in the name of honor and family. For eight years throughout the war, the Rikan Clan and Kriya and Lazen seemed to have advantages depending on where they fought. As the Kriya and Lazen Clans fought side by side against the Rikan, they suffered twice as many losses than the Rikans, but sense both clans had a high number of members joining them, or getting aid from several other clans, it would be hard for them to be exterminated, as the Rikan clan alike, who gained help by the rival clans. As the war reached it's final two years, Malek changed the battle tactics for his clan and allies, that gave them an overwhelming advantage, as even able to coordinate successful ambushes. After almost ten years of fighting the war came to an end, with the Rikan Clan completely destroyed, as their allies were now few in numbers. Meanwhile both the Lazen and Kriya Clan were almost completely exterminated because of it, as their allies were also wiped out, with fewer than three clans remaining on their side. Malek would however not count victory, and nor would the other clans. Gathering the remaining bodies, they headed back to Concord Dawn, where they prepared a funeral for the hundreds of warriors who had perished in the final battle. Arriving at the gravesite, where thousands of fallen Mandalorian warriors laid, they put to rest their kin, where they could be at peace. In ten years, the Kriyan clan and Lazen clan lost more than half their kin, numbering in the hundreds, similar to their allied clans. Stricken with grief, Malek now knew that the only full family that remained was his, his son's and daughter's as well. Knowing that the only way they could keep the clans together, he called for a meeting which was held a week later. Agreeing, the leaders of the clans decided to form a group known as the "Fallen Mandalorians", which became the new name to all the survivng Mandalorian Clans, as much to their surpise, their enemies decided to join them in the name of honor. In the war itself, Malek fought with his daughter several times, where he was able to help heal her spirit, allowing her to finish of the Rikan generals.

The Fallen Mandalorians

 * "The reason this group was made was not just to honor our fallen brothers and sisters, but to honor the True Mandalorians and the Mandalorian Guild." They all fought for what we Mandalorians are today, and we will continue that legacy for years to come"
 * -Malek to the Mandalorian Clans shortly after being appointed leader of the Fallen Mandalorians

After the formation of the Fallen Mandalorians, Malek was appointed leader after Mirta, Xasha (leader of the Lazen Clan) a,d the other leaders of their clans agreed. Xasha and Mirta said they had full faith in him, for it was his leadership in the war that kept them alive. Accepting his leadership, Malek would be the first leader of the Fallen Mandalorians. During this time the Galactic Civil War had already been fought, which led to the fall of the Galactic Empire and death of Darth Sidious, and the redemption of Darth Vader to Anakin Skywalker, who would also die just shortly after returning to the Jedi Way. When he became the leader of the Fallen Mandalorians, Malek granted his daughter and son the ranks of generals, while his wife would be second-in-command of the newly made Mandalorian reformation group. Several others would serve as commanders, and others would simply be identified as soldiers. Setting up several bases on Mandalore, Concordia, Korda 6, Corellia, and on Coruscant, the Fallen Mandalorians would become a trusted ally of the New Republic and also, they would take jobs as bounty hunters.

Yuuzhan Vong War (25-29 ABY)

 * "So have we come to an understanding Malek and Xasha? Are you two gonna aid us in this war?"
 * "Yes Anor, we will aid you in this."
 * "Just don't kill us, please. We have had enough."
 * "Oh, don't worry I won't kill you. You are the foundation of our army."
 * "F-f-fair enough."(Malek and Xasha)
 * -A now frightened Malek and Xasha pledge their services to the Yuuzhan Vong after being mercilessly tortured by Nom Anor

In the year of 25 ABY, Malek and his wife were sent on a mission by the new Republic to go and investigate the loss of a Republic base out in the Outer Rim territories. Leaving the squad in command of his son's daughter, in which Boba was currently on a mission to Felucia, Malek departed of to Meridian sector, which was the location of the Republic base. When they landed on one of the planets, Malek and Xasha could only bare to see that the entire base was completely destroyed, as bodies laid everywhere. While searching, they realized that the cause of the destruction came from the inside, but not by an accident, to which was done by a force of will. Seeing that there was nothing much they can do, they went back to their ship to leave the planet. However before they could, they were struck down by two Yuuzhan Vong warriors with amphistaffs on the back of their heads knocking them out. When they awoke, the two saw that they were in front of Nom Anor, a Yuuzhan Vong, who demanded they they help the Yuuzhan Vong in the upcoming pan-galactic conflict, seeking to destroy the New Republic. However the two Mandalorians stated they would not, for they wouldn't want to destroy the one government that kept them clean form bounty hunting crimes, as opposed to the Old Republic. Angered at there respone, he ordered the two be tortured with the most unbearable pain they could ever feel. After almost a half-hour of torture, under fear, Malek and Xasha pledged their services to aiding the Yuuzhan Vong.

Wanting their children to join them as well, as even several other Mandalorians serving under the two, two Yuuzhan Vong warriors tied the two Mandalorians and gagged them until they arrived on Concord Dawn. Breaking their binds and returning to their weapons, they told them to do what Anor had asked them. Seeing no other way, Malek and Xasha gave the news to their fellow Mandalorians, but were all unaware of the reason why. Clueless, the Fallen Mandalorians agreed to aid the Yuuzhan Vong, as their children would forceibly join after Boba was threatened by the native species on Felucia, and Mirta at the base. However, Malek sister would refuse to join the spieces saying that they can't force her. After shooting and killing one of the warriors, the second one charged in at her and stabbed her through the abdomen, fatally wounding her. Running to his sister's aid, Malek would try to help his sister, but she told him it was of no use, for it had entered to far, and gone through her back. Embracing her in tears, Mirta would tell Malek to stay strong, and help Boba Fett in leading the Mandalorians through the war in order to survive. Asking for forgiveness on ot joining, Malek said it was no need, for she stood up for what she wanted. Saying their final words in Mando'a, Mirta accepted her death and passed away peacefully. Muttering in Concordian, Malek vowed to do what his sister said. After she died, Malek donned his sister's helmet in her memory, and he would use it also during his Mandalore years.

In 26 ABY, Malek was contacted by the New Republic forces, who were engaing the Yuuzhan Vong in a space battle. Requesting his help, Malek feared on what would happen to him and his family, he decided to give him battle strategies and tactics. With the help of his daughter Mirta, Malek was able to hide and keep the call untraceable. Successfully sending the tactics, the Republic was able to use it and achieve victory, and would do so for the next two years in several battles, where Malek secretly aided them with the help of Boba Fett.

In the final year of the war, after Mandalore was assualted by the Yuuzhan Vong, and when Fett's and Malek's deception was uncovered they led a small squadron of Mandalorian soldiers against the attackers, where they were able to destroy two of their warships single handedly, despite taking moderate losses. Boba would later help Malek in the town of Bralsin, the Mandalorians clashed with more than a thousand Yuuzhan Vong warriors, slaying them in droves. From orbit, the Yuuzhan Vong's warships dropped singularity ordnance indiscriminately, blowing massive craters in the surface of Mandalore. Large swathes of woodlands were flattened, including the forests that surrounded Mandalore's capital city, Keldabe. Whole settlements of domains built into the branches of ancient veshok trees were obliterated in their entirety, and the buildings that comprised Keldabe sustained significant damage during the attack. Once fertile farmland was poisonedundefinedand salted, in an attempt to render it unusable.

The Mandalorians largely survived the orbital assault through the use of a network of underground tunnels that extended from beneath a number of their homes and structures, and into the mountains far away. When the Yuuzhan Vong deployed their warriors to the surface, the Mandalorians struck back, using the tunnels and their sheer martial ability to combat the Yuuzhan Vong. More than a thousand Yuuzhan Vong warriors engaged the Mandalorians in the small Keldabe suburb of Bralsin. Despite the area's poor defensive capabilities, the Mandalorians fought and defeated them in a massacre that would leave an imprint in the Force for more than a decade after. The Mandalorian soldier Goran Beviin, the first to make contact with the Yuuzhan Vong, killed several of their warriors at Bralsin with his beskad saber. Legions of Mandalorian supercommandos,undefinednative soldiers, and the Mandalorian Protectors led by Boba Fett, fought to protect Mandalore from the Yuuzhan Vong,undefinedeventually defeating and repelling the invaders. When the battle finally came to an end, close to one and a half million Mandalorians were dead, and though the Yuuzhan Vong death toll was higher still, Mandalore's population had been reduced by nearly a third. During the battle, Malek and the Fallen Mandalorians suffered heavy losses, including the loss of his son's wife Ailyn, who died by the Coomb spore. Two days after he death a funeral was held for her, where she was honored for her services during the war, taking care of victims affected by the diseasse, and protecting children even when she was diagnosed. Malek's son Boba was devastated by her death, as were his children. After the war was officially over, Malek passed on the leadership of the Fallen Mandalorians to his daughter and head of the recently formed Mandalorian Revival, to his son, which came from his wife.

A new War

 * "Dad, Mom, may we ask you a question?"
 * "Certainly. What is it you want to ask us Boba and Mirta?"
 * "By now, forgive us, shouldn't you be old by now, because Boba Fett sure is."
 * "Son, daughter, I think it's time you learn what we really are. Me and your mother are Zenolians, including you two, and your children."
 * "Zenolians?"
 * "Yes, so you can know more, we shall take you two to meet a new friend of ours. His name is Ren Ion, the most known Zenolian ever."
 * -Malek and Xasha reveal to Boba & Mirta that they both are Zenolians

Years following the Yuuzhan Vong War, Malek returned to his bounty hunter duties, often working with Boba Fett several times, even when Fett was in his seventies, Malek was surprised at how the Mandalorian bounty hunter continued to work. In 32 ABY, Malek made his biggest bounty since the Yuuzhan Vong War. Malek pursued a bounty of 500,000 credits that had been posted by the Traders' Coalition, in the task of killing an Atzerri glitterstim dealer named Bek. Tasked in killing him, Malek found the Atzerri dealer on the planet of Felucia, where he was taking refuge. Easily discovering the dealer's new home, Malek first saw Bek's wife and daughter, whom he was treating badly, shouting and cursing at them in Felucian. Malek was able to understand the harsh and cruel words that was being spit upon the two females, since he understood Felucian. Approaching the farm, Malek walked toward the farm and began speaking with Bek's young daughter who was crying in pain and fear, to which he would hand her some medicine, making her feel better. A few minutes later, Bek came out throwing his wife on the groud in anger, but would then get scared at seeing Malek, for he had a fear of Mandalorian bounty hunters. Pulling out his trusty Warlord pistol, Malek began to walk slowly towards Bek, while the dealer walked backwards until he was cornered by the wall of his home. In an instant, Bek's wife remembered that he had been placed on a bounty list, and that no, Malek had come to collect it. Much to his surprise, Malek was ordered by Bek's own wife and daughter to kill him. Knowing it was his job, at point blank, Malek shot and killed Bek, and wouuld later pull his his darksaber, to then decapitate Bek's dead body, and bring back his head to his contractors. Before he left Felucia, Malek was given food and certain machine parts by Bek's wife and daughter, whom he would take to a new home on a farm located on his homeworld of Concord Dawn. He then took Bek's head to his contractors at the Traders Coalation, where they would pay him 1,000,000 credits, much to his surprise after being previously offered 500,000. Not caring, he took the money and gave it to his children, which they would use to modify their weapons and armor. After this, Malek returned to Concord Dawn again, where he would reveal to his children Boba and Mirta that both were Zenolians, along with their mother Xasha. Four years later, in 36 ABY, Malek would work alongside Boba Fett in a rescue mission. This would be one of the many times during the time of his highlighted bounty hunter years where Malek did not request the aid of his family, and would do so for the next 55 years. Nevertheless, it did not stray him from spending time with his family when they had no work.

Rescuing Sintas

 * "All I will say is this. If you break my granddaughter's heart Janek, I will not hesitate to break your legs. Understood!"
 * "Yes sir. I swear I won't break her heart."
 * -Malek to Janek Dakari during his granddaughter's wedding.

Before heading of to rescue Sintas with Boba Fett and Mirta Gev, Malek traveled to Keldabe on Mandalore, for the wedding of his granddaughter Sintas Kriya, the daughter of his daughter Mirta "Miranda" Kriya. Attending the wedding with his wife, and several other family members, Malek had given Janek and Sintas his blessing, to which the two would marry two months later. After his granddaughter's marriage, Malek accompanied Boba to rescue Sintas Vel,who was on Phaeda, frozen in carbonite, and still alive. During the same time, Malek met Jaina Solo, which would be the first Jedi he initially met since the time of the Clone Wars. Malek would also help train the Jedi Knight, much to her insistence, which he would surprisingly agree without protest or showing aggression towards Jania. After they were able to free Sintas from her carbonite prison, she was healed by the former Jedi Gotab, who was now a Mandalorian. Sintas was then able to recover her sight and memories.

Training Jaina

 * "You are the first Jedi I have met in over sixty years Jaina."
 * "Really?"
 * "Yes, and it would be an honor to help train you. These are dark times, but so you know, I have no hate or quarrel with the Jedi."
 * "That's good to hear."
 * Malek and Jaina during a training session

Some time later, Malek would encounter Jedi Knight Jaina Solo. the daughter of Han Solo. During this time, Malek was still working with Boba Fett. The young Jedi had set out to enlist their aid in hunting her brother Darth Caedus, the new Dark Lord of the Sith, and to learn from their skills, so she would need to confront her twin. Arriving on Mandalore in an X-wing, Jaina found herself confronted by a group of heavily armed Mandalorians, to which she was escorted to meet Boba Fett in a humble, rustic cantina that served as the Mandalore's seat of government, all too aware of the traditional Mandalorian dislike for Jedi. Fett and Malek agreed to train her, but promised to be a hard teacher, as Malek said he would be strict, and not kind. Malek would initially watch her first few lessons with Boba, in which she would constantly be easily beaten, but she would still continue despite the humiliation.

For the next several months, Malek partook in many training sessions with Jaina, whom he would easily beat, but to everyone's surprise he rarely humilated her, and would often guive her tips during sparring matches. Despite the fact that Jaina was able to best Malek two times, Malek showed a great amount of trust in the young Jedi, knowing she would eventually defeat her fallen brother. Because of this, Malek and Jaina formed a friendship, just like with Mirta Gev, who would also become Jaina's friend. After her training was completed, Malek spoke to Jaina telling her that he had trust in her, knowing she would do what was right, and show what it meant to be a Jedi. Knowing that he had no hate for the Jedi, Jaina remarked that if he had chosen the path, he would have made a great and terrific Jedi, and that he was who he was. After this she left and wished Malek the best for his family and himself, as Malek would say the same. Once she left, Malek was confronted by Boba, who wasked why he had no hate for the Jedi. Malek would respond that if it wasn't for the Jedi, his first parents Zatar Morak and Elisa Vizla would have died, and that he would never have been born. Demanding he respect his opinion and views, Boba said that he had no hate for Malek himself, for he was a good ally, and even a great friend. Malek said to Boba then, that he would help him cheat death, and live much more longer, for he knew away, which would surprise Boba. Working with his doctor, Malek helped devise a potion that granted Boba his youth and an enhanced lifespan, without flaw.

End of the war & meeting Ren Ion

 * "My purpose here has ended. I have done my duties. I must return to the home of my ancestor Malek Morak. It was an honor serving with you Boba Fett. May our paths cross again."
 * "Likewise, my fellow Mandalorian."
 * Malek to Boba before his departure to the planet of Zeno

After the death of Jacen Solo, at the hands of his sister Jaina, Malek decided that his duties for both the Jedi Coalition & the Galactic Alliance had finished. After some time on Mandalore, Malek left the planet, where he then bid farewell to his bounty hunter companion and friend Boba Fett. After this, he left, with his family going with him, due to the fact, that over the years, following his grandchildren, and several others decided to follow him because of their Zenolian bloodline. After two weeks of searching, Malek and his family found Zeno, where they decided to make it their new home. Zeno would become the birthplace of both his granddaughter's and gradson's children, and many generations afterward. After landing, Malek would be the first one to meet notable Zenolian Ren Ion. Welcomed as a friend, Malek and his family were given their own homes on the native planet, and pledged their Mandalorian services to the Zeno-Sith Imperial Order, including to several other Zeno affiliations.

Hidden from history (41-120 ABY)

 * "For several decades, me and my family spent our lives in hiding. The reasons are for personal assets, thus shall not be discussed. Thanks to Ren Ion, me and my entire family learned on how to fully control, wield, and utilize our Zenolian powers. Because of that we are grateful. We, the Kriyans, and the new Lazens, shall return the true face of the Mandalorians, those who died, my brothers from the Mandalorian Guild, i carry their legacy, like my family as well. We shall return to the galaxy."
 * -An excerpt from Malek's autobiographical journal

After arriving on Zeno, Malek and his enitre family spent several years in hiding and training under Ren Ion. Wanting to know on how to properly use his Zenolian abilities, Ren Ion agreed in training Malek, and his entire family. Undergoing strict training, and hundreds of sparring matches with other Zenolians and family members alike, the new Kriyans were able to control their Zenolian abilities, as many generations that were born during this time were able to at early ages. After spending eighty years hidden, Malek returned to the galaxy, where he would return to Mandalore, and would allign it with Zeno, after persuading the new Mand'alor to do so seven years later.

Becoming Mandalore (139-259 ABY)

 * "Being a Mandalorian is one thing, but becoming the sole ruler is a completely different story."
 * -Malek on his role as Mand'alor

Around eleven years later, Malek returned to Mandalore once more, after being on a decade long mission in fighting to protect Zeno from invading enemies. Meeting up with Yaga Auchs, the current ruler of the planet, Malek came in questions. Wondering on why Mandalore broke ties with Zeno, Malek came to argue. Yaga stated that he found the native Zenolians were weak and a poor excuse for an ally, for they couldn't even defend their home without the help of the Mandalorian warriors. This angered Malek, where he responded by saying he was part Zenolian, and that his words not only insulted his friends, but also his family. He also stated that the Zenolians were a force not to reckon with, nor offend for they were armed to the teeth with naval/militant forces. He also stated that Zeno space is located outside of the galaxy and is isolated, so which is a possible reason on why he is so naive about Zenolian navy, and on the spieces itself, much to the annoyance of Yaga.


 * "Now you know what I'm capable of Yaga. I will do anything to protect my family, including my fellow Zenolians. They are my friends and family. You paid for your insolence with your life. As of today, I proclaim myself as leader of Mandalore and I now reinstate the reformation of the Mandalorian/Zeno army, and affiliation."
 * -Malek shortly after killing Yaga and taking the title of Mand'alor

Yaga would then simply laugh at his words, only making him more angry. Pulling out a blaster, Malek killed Yaga but shooting him in the face in point blank range. This would cause several Mandalorian guards to rush up to Yaga's position, but instead of attacking Malek, they proclaimed him as the new ruler of Mandalore, for he earned it in killing the former one. Accepting the title, Malek remade the alliance between Mandalore and Zeno, where he was able to remake a Mandalorian army for both planets. Malek became the oldest Mand'alor in both galactic and Mandalorian history, as the first Zenolian ever. Malek would remain as Mand'alor for the next one hundred and twenty years, until he passed his title of to his great-great-great-great-great grandson Koi Kriya. While as Mand'alor, Malek created the Zeno Mandalorians, which was a group of highly skilled Mandalorian warriors dedicated in fighting for their homeworlds of Mandalore and Zeno, and also protecting it. While as Mand'alor, Malek was able to rebuild certain parts of the planet that had been destroyed during the Yuuzhan Vong War, which had been under construction for several decades, but because of his mastery in constructing, Malek was able to technologically advanced Mandalore.

Stages of a New War & the Silent Watch

 * "More than a hundred years ago, a war of this caliber was fought between the Death Watch and True Mandalorians. And now it is fought once more between the Zeno Mandalorians and the Silent Watch. Still, what a ridiculous name. Silent Watch, there is nothing threatening about it, nor is it silent. Yet, they are serious, to the fact they evovled from a small group of hooligans, to a radical Mandalorian army, opposing my rule. Ironically, they honor the Death Watch, but they want to return the New Mandalorian goverment."
 * -Malek during a conference

Around three years after becoming the ruler of Mandalore, Malek became involved in his first war as a initial ruler. Prior to becoming Mand'alor, Malek had previously been involved in a small confrontation with a newly formed Mandalorian splinter group named the Silent Watch. At the time, it was a group of hooligans who attacked several high-ranking Mandalorians and always left a message saying that the New Mandalorians would one day return to the galaxy. Malek however found the group to be completely hypocritical, because of how they honored the Death Watch but wanted the New Mandalorians to return to the galaxy, to which had been a pacifistic government. He would even tell his people of Mandalore that if one wants a peaceful rule, violence wasn't needed, which was made the Silent Watch look very hypocritical. Malek's people trust ed his words for they knew he was right, although he found peace to be weak in many stages, for it always finished in violence, through reasons unknown or because of a revolution that sparks the key. Nevertheless, following his frist years as Mand'alor, the Silent Watch had recently formed itself and began recruiting people to their cause, to which a surpringly high number of people opposed Malek's sole leader rule, and supported the rule of Satine Kryze, who had been final New Mandalorian ruler hundreds of years ago during the Clone Wars. By the year of 141 ABY, Silent Watch had grown significantlly high in numbers, after just starting as a group of small teenagers in Malek's first year as ruler. A few months into his second year as ruler, the capital city of Sundari had been attacked. Taking a few men of the Zeno Mandalorians, they searched through the burned city, and saw many of it's citizens dead, until a young girl came out of the rubble and told them what had happened.

Second Mandalorian Civil War (142 ABY-152 ABY)

 * "It looks like we have no choice but to fight the Silent Watch."
 * "But sir, are you sure? I mean, is that the only choice?"
 * Yes, it is. Xasha, Mirta, Boba ready the men and take them to Concord Dawn, Galidraan, Corellia, and Concordia. Janek, Jiu, Yuki, and Zaket, ready the men here. Jent, Hil, and Durbe, you three come with me to Felucia. We are going to war."
 * -Malek declares war on the Silent Watch

By 142 ABY, the Silent Watch had attacked several bases of the Zeno Mandalorians, Kriyan and Lazen Clan bases, which resulted in little casualties because they fought back against them. Nevertheless, few casualties would affect Malek greatly because the Silent Watch knew when and how to attack. Gathering his highest ranking generals, and few members of his family, Malek had them set out several mobile Mandalorian armies in the locations of their bases, and in certain other areas. Malek would also contact Zeno and told them to stand by in case they needed any help, and they said they were always ready. Readying his men, Malek first marched his men to Felucia to meet up with the leader of the Silent Watch, who was named Pre Doko. Demanding that they stop their movement and give into justice on their recent actions of Mandalore, Doko stated that he wouldn't, and if it meant he had to go to war, he would do so and kill Malek himself in the future, for now it was to early. Meanwhile on Galidraan, his wife, daughter, son and two other unidentified Kriyan Generals, were awaiting for a meeting with Jort Higin, High General of the Silent Watch, but would be instantly attacked by the Silent Watch themselves. Knowing that it had been planned out, they fought back against their attackers. Contacting her father, Mirta warned him that it was a trap, and to prepare for an ambush. Pre Doko simply smiled and gave a direct order for an attack. Emerging from their hiding spots, Malek and his men were attacked, only to go quickly on both the offense and defense. As the first two battles of a decade long war began, Mandalore grew restless and prayed that Malek would emerge victorious, but much to everyone's disappointment, it would be a decade long war.

The first stages

 * "It has been only four years, and we have lost millions of our people, and barely a fraction of our warriors, although it is enough to say heavy causalities. Why do they stray themselves in attacking the innocent. To them we are the enemy, as they are to us. The people are not the enemy.
 * -Malek to several of his men during the Fifth Battle of Felucia

For the first four years of the war, the battles centralized themselves five times on Felucia, three times on Galidraan, two times on Coruscant, once on Ryloth, four times on Corellia, and two times on Concordia. However, during the war, while Malek, his family, and the Zeno Mandalorians were distracted by the battles, Pre Doko secretly sent platoons of men to attack the planet of Mandalore in the hopes of gaining te support of it's people. The primary targets were the cities of Sundari and Keldabe, which were the homes of the newborn descendents of both the Kriya and Lazen clans. Eventually several towns and other cities evacuated in time before the attacks including both clans, but some decided to stay and die for the Mandalore Malek had made. The sacrifices of his people deeply saddened Malek, but knew that they did because they respected and loved him. Much to Doko's anger, the attack would never work, for they knew of the Silent's Watch's intentions.

End of the war & fall of the Silent Watch

 * "So it all ends like this? Never expected it to be like this."
 * "You brought upon yourself Doko. You killed millions of innocents during the war, but it doesn't have to end. We are all Mandalorian warriors."
 * "Yes I know, which does not depend who we side on, but decisions are made."
 * "Ni dinu ner gaan naakyc, jorcu ni nu copaani kyr'amur ner vod
 * "A truce?"
 * "Yes, we agree that you fought for what you wanted, but the New Mandalorians won't be brought back by war and action. We may have lived in peace long ago, but the reason peace is around is for someone to come and end it abruptly. My government lived in peace for six months and trained for any incoming enemies."
 * "Take up the truce, and you will be forgiven."
 * "NO! I die for the New Mandalorians, and I warn you, they will return and you will die. It will be done by me and your family Mal.....
 * "'Ori'buyce, kih'kovid.
 * -Malek offers Pre Doko the chance to make a truce before killing him

By 150 ABY, both the Zeno Mandalorians and Silent Watch had been cut in half. As the war drew itself to a close, Malek and his team of the Zeno Mandalorians and the Kriya clan were successfully capturing several high ranking officials within the Silent Watch, and forcing them to reveal their battle plans and locations. After another six long months, Malek, Xasha, along with their great-great-great-great-great grandchildren Jolek and Shae, they managed to capture Pre Doko, thus ending the war, and a victory for Malek's armies and the Zenolian Army as well. Cornering him and killing of some his final remaining warriors, Malek held Doko at blade point, offering him to accept a truce and officially end the war. Doko however replied that he would never make a truce with Malek, because his government was not right and that he would also die in the near future. Angered at his words, Malek used his darksaber to kill Doko by slicing him across the chest. He then picked up his body and threw it into the Sarlac Pit. Seeing his actions, the few remaining Silent Watch warriors pledged their alligence to Malek, telling him that they now served him. After this, Malek returned to Mandalore promising his people that their cities would be rebuilt and that he would take the protection and their lives more into mind, and that they were his top priority. A few days later, Malek and his wife Xasha, along with the rest of his family and allies held a funeral for the final Mandalorians who lost their lives in the final battle on Felucia.

Fallen Honored

 * "Ni su'cuyi, gar kyr'adyc, ni partayli, gar darasuum."
 * "Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la."
 * -Malek and Xasha during the massive funerals held for the final Zeno Mandalorians who lost their lives

Following the war, Malek would hold numerous funerals for almost a week to honor the Mandalorians who died during the war, including the recent ones. Despite being heavily severed, Malek was able to recreate the Zeno Mandalorians, but would change the armor. Also from 152 ABY-169 ABY, several statues were erected in the meory of the fallen Mandalorian warriors on both Mandalore and Zeno. During this time, Malek would mostly focus his life on leading his people as Mand'alor, working as a bounty hunter, and training the children of several of his descendants, while his wife retired from war, mercenary and bounty hunting service in 176 ABY to settle down and help the common folk of Mandalore. Her decision would not upset Malek, for he knew she wanted to rest, since she had gone through many things in her life, and wanted to also focus on her family.

Later Mand'alor years & Death of Xasha (153-225 ABY)

 * "My darling wife, you have done everything in life. Please don't cry."
 * "I know Malek, but I wanted to spent more time with you, but I am glad we met, but you too, please don't cry. We have been married for more than two hundred years, and they have been the greatest years of my life. We gave birth to two wonderful children, and they each other alike. We have seen the birth of several of our descendants, fought many many wars. I am sad now, but happy in a way. I thank you Malek for all these years."
 * "I know Xasha. I will live on, and live you as a legacy as well, just like our families. I love you Xasha."
 * "I love you too Malek."(Malek and Xasha share a final kiss)
 * -Malek and a dying Xasha

Between the years of 189 and 212 ABY, Malek's wife Xasha fell ill to a mysterious sickness, similar to that of which killed both of his adopted parents. However, because of her Zenolian blood, Xasha was able to live with the illness for a few years, but it would not last. Malek first noticed symptoms when she started to show signs of weakness in her physical strength, despite the fact that she was of Zenolian blood. Worried, Malek went to meet with a Zenolian doctor who resided on Keldabe, and was known for his medical accomplishments. However, instead of good news, Malek received bad news, which would leave him heart-broken. When here turned home, Malek saw his wife resting on their bed, weak physically and in health. Knowing it was his last time with her, Malek went and grabbed her left hand which she held in the air, after she told him to come. Speaking in their final conversation, Malek and Xasha knew what was going to happen. After their final words, Malek and Xasha shared their last kiss, and with that, Xasha passed away peacefully, having Malek's love in her mind and heart. The death of Xasha caused great upset for the entire Mandalorian populace, even to Malek's family. The next day, Xasha was buried in her Mandalorian armor, and her casket was carried through the streets of Sundari, with Malek and his children, Boba & Mirta on each side, including several members of his family on both his side and Xasha's side. She was then buried in a Mandalorian warrior temple. However it is unknown the exact year in which Xasha died, but is believed to between 220 ABY and 232 ABY. In 245 ABY, a statue was erected in her memory, as on the base it said: "I have lived my life as best I can. I have seen many things as well, and made a family with the man I fell in love with.' Malek I love you, and I know you will continue to do what is right. Fight on forever, and when the time comes, we shall see each other again. I will love you forever.

Malek returned to the temple where she was buried in 245 ABY. Upon seeing her statue Malek said that what she had told him years ago, he was already doing, and always had been.

Imperial/Mandalorian Crisis (220-245 ABY)

 * "I honestly do not understand. The Sith Empire fell around the same time I became Mandalore, and they decide to come back now. Why couldn't they just have tried to accomplish that after Darth Kryat's death. Idiots."
 * -Malek Kriya on the Sith Empire

In the years between his wife's death and ascension as leader of the newly create Mandalorian Empire, where the title Mand'alor now had a new meaning, Malek found himself in a two decade long span war of words with the newly reform Sith Empire, now named, the Resurrected Empire. The new Sith Empire gained an interest in the Zeno Mandalorians, and Malek himself, who was recognized as one of the best Mandalorian warriors of the era. Although Malek had long since worked as a bounty hunter and mercenary, the empire hoped to reinstate Malek reputation in his old careers. However, Malek had no intention of returning to his bounty hunter years again, until he felt it was the right time to give his lead as Mandalore to someone else. Angered by his words, the ruler of the new Sith Empire, Darth Xhaltan, contacted Malek and told him to meet him at the center of where both their empires were boarded. Agreeing, Malek left to meet up with the Dark Lord of the Sith on Felucia, however, after some insisting, Malek let his daughter join him and left Mandalore in charge of his son. After arriving at the rendezvous point. They were greeted by a large Star Destroyer, as were pulled in by a tractor beam. Exiting their ship, Malek and Mirta met up with three Sith Guards, who told them that Xhaltan was waiting for them in his throne room, and that they had to go quickly, for it was not wise to keep him waiting. Not wanting to be escorted, the two used their jetpacks to fly up to the throne room, dodging several pipes and going through airducts. Breaking up through a door, Malek and Mirta made their way towards the Sith Lord in his seat. Taking their seats, Malek asked on why he was summoned, and why was the reason that Xhaltan wanted his bounty hunting career reinstated.

Not saying a word, Xhaltan snapped his fingers and two acolytes, from behind, with wires, tied both Malek and his daughter to their seats, and removed their weapons and helmets. Asking them to leave, Xhaltan spoke to the Mandalorian warriors telling them, that because of their actions, there people would suffer and die, unless he gave his services to him, along with his entire family and armies. Malek however said he wouldn't give up the lives of his men, family, and people, just to serve under a totalitarian rule, which differed from his rule as Mand'alor, because, although he was a sole ruler, he did not control the lives of those on Mandalore and let them live their lives, by certain laws, but had freedom as well. Instantly lifting Malek up by his neck, Xhaltan cursed in Huttese, with Malek simply laughing at his words, since he understood the language. Unleashing a dagger, using his Zenolian abilities, Malek stabbed Xhaltan in the abdomen, breaking the hold, and dropping Malek down to the floor, breaking the chair and snapping the wire. Grabbing his weapons and helmet, Malek broke the wire holding Mirta, and she would also grab her helmet and weapons. The two Sith Acolytes who had tied them to the chair earlier came running to aid the injured Xhaltan, but were shot dead by Mirta, as three others by Malek. Knowing they had to escape, Malek and Mirta would bomb their way through walls and doors killing of several Imperial Guards and Sith Acolytes in their way until they reached the hangar. They would quickly board their ship, but not before using their rockets on their jetpacks to destroy several Imperial starfighters that were in the hangar. Once they boarded they left, just as soon as the hangar was completely destroyed, except the ship survived the blast, being a small amount of damage. Surprisingly, Xhaltan had no intention to go to war, but found pleasure in making several threats of war, as Malek would retaliate in having Mandalore heavily guarded by the Zeno fleet, who received his call to help, and agreed to help their fellow friend, ally and Zenolian. Malek did not want his people being killed, and would be forced to live in space for twenty years. During this time, Mlek went on several missions to numerous planets, which involved meeting up with secrets spies who were able to get info on the Sith's next move.It would go on and on for years until Malek and Xhaltan decided to determine each others fate in a duel in 245 ABY, on Coruscant.

Fateful Duel

 * "And now you die Malek. Your entire family, your people, warriors and allies will submit to my rule. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
 * "Ugh, I think not Xhaltan. Power consumes you, and it has become your downfall."
 * "What do you mean?"
 * "This!"
 * "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
 * -Malek and Darth Xhaltan

In the hopes of keeping his people, and empire alive, Malek agreed to confront Xhaltan on Coruscant. Going alone in his ship, the Xasha L1, Malek landed on Coruscant near an old Jedi temple, which hadn't been used in more than a hundred years. Igniting their blades, Malek went on to duel the Sith Lord and both would clash their lightsabers, that caused a shockwave around them. Clashing their blades with all their strength, each gave it their all with both their lives on the line, including Mandalore's future. As the duel escalated, it would go into the temple itself, and outside again, which was still standing strong, despite it not being in use for more than a century. As each used power to amplify their defenses and attacks, the power of the Force between the two intensified. Xhaltan was impressed by Malek's abilities in the Force, but was unaware to the fact that it contributed to his Zenolian abilities, which was why Malek knew on how to use the Force. Still, Malek had troubles in fighting the Sith Lord, due to his mixture of abilities, although, Malek used abilities that would be considered unnatural. Nearing an edge of a dueling training arena, Xhaltan began to use his supernatural strength, and battered at Malek, causing him to lose his grip on one of his dark blades, which was then smacked of by a vicious blade and thrown over the edge. The blade fell a depth of fifty feet and was destroyed on impact, since the training arena was able to hover to a higher levels, although it was outside. Noticing Xhaltan's second blade hooked to his belt, using his gauntlet, Malek threw a fibercord whip at the Sith Lord's legs, and pulled on the cord, dropping him to the ground and releasing the blade from his hand. Malek caught the blade with his left hand and waited for Xhaltan to get back to his feet. Using the second blade, Malek would then notice that it was the same blade he had just taken to him, same hilt and crystal. Not caring, Malek charged onto the Sith Lord, but met with a vicious punch to the abdomen, sliced one of his prosthetic legs, and was then kicked at least five meters, near the edge of the arena. Struggling to get up because of the vicious blows, Xhaltan began to pronounce victory, but Malek after telling him that the power he so willingly sought for was his downfall, Xhaltan gave a questioning look. Unleashing a powerful blast of Kad'evor Lightning, that struck the Sith Lord with immense pain, and had a sense of torture. Lifting him up with the lightning, Malek pulled him towards where he was, and using the remaining power in his damaged prosthetic right leg, he jumped and kicked Xhaltan with enough force which sent him flying across the other side of the arena, and tumbled of, but managed to grab onto the ledge. Using his jetpack to reach the other side, Malek stood above a hanging Xhaltan, who begged for mercy, but he simply laughed and stepped on the Sith Lord's fingers, crushing them, and caused him to fall to his death, which was a fifty feet drop. Victorious, Malek returned to Mandalore, where a medic replaced his damaged cybernetic leg with a new one. Following Xhaltan's death, the Resurrected Empire witnessed a dramatic collapse in power and foundation. The Sith Empire had now been destroyed, and Malek showed that as Mand'alor, he was willing to do anything for his people, and that of his late wife.

Final Mand'alor years & return to Zeno

 * "I have served as ruler for more than a hundred years, and now I pas my title onto you Koi Kriya. Lead my people well, as they are now yours."
 * "I will act honorable in your stead Malek."
 * "Dad, are you returning to Zeno?"
 * "Yes my daughter, I am."
 * "I will come to. I have finally found my place in the home of my ancestors, and I will serve Ren Ion honorably, as you will."
 * "Very well. Let's go Mirta. Vode An Koi."
 * "Vode An Malek and Mirta."
 * -Malek hands his title as Mand'alor to Koi Kriya, shortly before returning to Zeno with his daughter

From 245-259 ABY, Malek would serve his final years as Mand'alor. Once 259 ABY hit it's mark, Malek would give his title to Koi Kriya, who was his great grandson, born in 224 ABY, to the descending blood from his son's side. Malek then left Mandalore with his daughter Mirta and went to Zeno. Mirta would go on to become High General of the Zenolian Army & Navy. Malek would eventually return to his original warrior and bounty hunter ways, and even became Grand Magistrate of the Zeno Sith-Imperial Order. Upon his return to the planet, once he dropped of his daughter at the army base of Zeno, Malek would be welcomed by an old friend, and former Mandalorian Guild Commander, Spectra Phantom, who had long since retired from his Mandalorian service, and had only returned to the galaxy in 100 ABY. Malek himself was grateful to see Spectra. Malek then met Ren Ion once more, last seeing him in 245 ABY, following the fall of the Resurrected Empire. Ren Ion would also welcome back Malek to his ancestral home, which bared the name of hundreds of Morak Mandalorian warriors, which were all Zenolian. Thousands of years before, the Morak Clan lived on Zeno, but weren't Mandalorian. The first, Malek Morak was adopted by a Mandalorian couple, who crashed on Zeno, each named Zach Morak, and Satele Morak, who would raise him into Mandalorian culture. Then after, Malek Morak would instruct Mandalorian culture and heritage into the newly formed Morak Clan. Still, despite having a new name, Malek would use his first name as an alias whenever he took on bounty hunting jobs.

Reemergence as a bounty hunter (259-289 ABY)

 * "It's been years since bounty hunting was my lead role as a Mandalorian. Once more I will become a bounty hunter, and do what I do best."
 * "That's good my friend. For you to serve as a supreme judge and bounty hunter, it is something. I assure you that Zeno is now your new home right?"
 * "Yes."
 * -Malek & Ren Ion

A few months after returning to Zeno, Malek reinstated his career as a notable bounty hunter, as he would even work as a Grand Magistrate. Malek's first bounty since his return came from Coruscant itself, which requested him in taking out an assassin that was killing several senators of the Galactic Senate, and it was damaging their political system. Knowing he had to make another two-day long trip, Malek accepted it, because he knew that it would be a great way to restart his bounty hunting career. Arriving on Coruscant, Malek met up with Supreme Chancellor Dorin Hiruk, a Twi'lek politician. Once he arrived, Malek landed his ship outside the Galactic Senate where Dorin was waiting for him. Giving the location of the human assassin, Malek made his way towards the Coruscant Underworld with his jetpack. Without wasting a second upon his arrival, Malek saw his target in a bar and took aim right after entering, but not to gain suspicion, he kept his rifle at a low height. The human assassin who was named Kal Jan, was unaware of Malek, and was busy buying a drink. With one click of his hunter's rifle, Malek shot Kal in the back, piercing him through the front, and dropping his body dead on the counter. This caused screams from the females around him and everyone in the bar. Grabbing a smoke grenade, Malek activated it and left bar to then take flight and leave the Underworld without being caught. Malek then recieved his payment from the chancellor and then eft Coruscant to return to Zeno, which he would in less than a day. After his first bounty, for the next thirty years, Malek took on several bounties, for his own needs, and would use the credits for aiding Zeno, and helping the doctors in finding medical research. He would also give credits to those who were too poor, and gave them homes. By 289 ABY, Malek had taken more than a thousand bounties, the highest done by any bounty hunter in history in a certain amount of years. He then decided to settle down, and live in his new home on Coruscant, where he was finally able to fully place himself in his career as a Grand Magistrate, faithfully serving the Dark Legion Order.

Settling Down & New Career as Grand Magistrate (300-350 ABY)

 * "My bounty hunting and mercenary days are over. So are my warrior years. I will settle down and take up my new career. It has been a while since I was involved in politics."
 * "Well dad, I will continue serving the navy, and Boba continues being the lead instructor in training soldiers and other Mandalorians."
 * "Yes, we have made our own careers my daughter. Your mom would have wanted that. Rest her soul."
 * "Yes I know. One day, we will all be reunited."
 * "Yes. Now rest my daughter, you have done a lot of work. Tell Boba to rest as well."
 * "Ok father."
 * -Malek and his daughter Mirta

Following his retirement as a bounty hunter and mercenary, Malek devoted his time as Grand Magistrate of the Dark Legion Order, faithfully serving alongside Ren Ion and other Zenolians as well. As the Grand Magistrate, Malek would be loved by his fellow Zenolians, and although, he no longer fought, Malek would not hesitate in being armed, for a matter of protection. For several years, Malek showed that serving in the Dark Legion Order would become of of his greatest assets. During his service to the order, Malek would begin to write a dairy, which would have significant dates, and important events that had occurred throughout his life. For the next fifty years, Malek served the Dark Legion Order as a Grand Magistrate, as he would permenantly reside on Zeno. Still, Malek took the time to visit Mandalore and decided to check on how things were going, since he was no longer Mand'alor. In the same year of 300 ABY, Malek's great-great-great-great-great grandson Koi Kriya was killed by a Mandalorian warrior, who desired power. Wanting not to involve himself in another battle, Malek sent his daughter to help Boba kill the Mandalorian. Gathering information he knew, Malek gave it to Boba, which he would use to find the Mandalorian who hid himself under groups of radical Mandalorian warriors. Sending Zeno Mandalorians with his children, Boba was successful in killing the new "Mand'alor", and would take the title himself in honor of Koi Kriya, who was his great-great-great grandson. With this, Malek's son was now Mand'alor and kept the alliance between Zeno and Mandalore strong.

Joining the Force Lords (351 ABY)

 * "I may be a Mandalorian, and not be a Jedi nor Sith, but I do have a strong command of the Force."
 * -Malek to an Unidentified Zenolian Force Lord

In the year of 351 ABY, after his Grand Magistrate career ended, Malek was given a request to join the Force Lords. Malek accepted the offer, but one Zenolian was rather skeptical, because he wondered how a Mandalorian could be apart of it. Malek would angrily reprimand the Zenolian Force Lord on his words, and would demonstrate his Zenolian abilities. Shocking the Zenolian, Malek proved to be one of the strongest Mandalorian/Zenolian Force Lords, under Ren Ion, who surpassed Malek. Malek would remain a member of the Force Lords until his death in 435 ABY, to which his unaltered clone, Kri'Uz, would contiue to serve it in his place, extending Malek's legacy.

Of to Battle once More (351 ABY-360 ABY)

 * "I thought fighting was over for me. I was wrong, for war will not let me rest. Curse the Sith Empire."
 * -Malek upon his return to his warrior ways

Months after joining the Force Lords, Malek became involved in his first conflict, since the Imperial/Mandalorian Crisis. Recieving an urgent message from one of his Zeno Mandalorians, Malek discovered that on Umbara, the Sith Empire was rebuilding itself. Shocked, Malek asked how he was so sure, but before he could answer, the Zenolian was stabbed through the back from behind by two Sith Acolytes request Malek's appearance on the planet, for if he didn't come, his daughter would die, whom he gone missing two weeks prior to his ascension into the Force Lords. Heading into his ship the Xasha L1, Malek departed to the dark planet of Umbara, and landed a few clicks south of the ancient Sith Academy. Taking only his new crimson blade, Malek flew to the academy on his jetpack. Once he arrived, several acolytes came to greet him with lightsabers on, and to protect himself, Malek ignited his own. Wanting to kill him, one acolyte charged at Malek, who would respond with a blast of Zenolian Lightning (Kad'evor Lightning), sending him back to the entrance, and was killed on impact. Malek then charged on the Sith Acolytes and would kill them all, after engaging each one in a small duel. Forcing the academy's door open with a powerful Force blast, Malek entered the Sith's lair in the hopes of not only rescuing his daughter, but also to prevent the Sith Empire from coming back to the galaxy. Unbeknownst to Malek, most of the Sith warriors were Umbarans, as even the Sith Lord, Darth Oscuri would make his presence known, as he would firstly reveal himself to Malek. Removing his cloak, the Sith Lord revealed himself to be an Umbaran, who sought to have Malek killed, due to the recent attack on Umbara by Boba Kriya's Mandalorian army, after the Sith Lord had recently attacked a Mandalorian base.

Return to the galaxy & Zeno (400 ABY)

 * "Father, we thought you were dead."
 * "It gonna take more than one female Sith Lord to get rid of me son, even clones."
 * "That doesn't matter, what matters is that you are alive. Mirta missed you."
 * "I know, she may be grown up, but looks like a daughter needs her father, even the son needs him."
 * "We always need you father. If it wasn't for you, neither I or Mirta would be alive, or would have fallen in love again, if you or mom had not insisted on saying that our first love is always with us, and that love would help us. You have helped us many times father, now it's time we helped you."
 * -Malek and his son on Korda 6



Personality and Traits

 * "If there is one thing you should know senator, I should tell you now."
 * "What is it?"
 * "If my contractor fails to pay me, I won't hesitate to shoot. You are playing a dangerous game hiring me Senator Firin."
 * -Malek to Senator Firin

Malek Kriya was a cold, cunning, sadistic, manipulative, and malicious individual throughout the first 20 years of his life. A strong, brave, confident and talented soldier, Malek always did what he could in fulfilling and keeping the legacy of his parents and the Morak Clan alive. Thinking only about revenge on his mind, Malek swore to kill of the entire Death Watch faction, even if it would cost him his own life, but this attitude changed after he met Xasha Lazen. Upon meeting the Mandalorian female of the Lazen Clan, she was able to drive out his quest for vengeance, because she feared that it would accomplish nothing, and accept the fact that one can't live their life with nothing but revenge on their mind. After this, Malek became less sadistic, but still kept his malicious personality, in which he would unleash it upon enemies of the Mandalorian Guild and his clan. Since he was a teenager, Malek proved himself to be a brave, confident, and strong warrior. Having full loyalty to the Mandalorian Guild and it's leader Beviin Kabur, where they honored the True Mandalorians, for his parent had been apart of them until it's collapse. A strong believer of the Mandalorian faith, Malek also believed that the Death Watch were disgracing on what it meant to be a Mandalorian. Aside from this, Malek proved to be extremely manipulative in persuading Vizsla to let him join the Death Watch, as Malek's true identity was unaware to the Death Watch leader for five years, and thus was never discovered. His manipulation proved most useful when he saved Xasha from a crazy Mandalorian assassin in 20 BBY, and when he prevented an enemy of the Mandalorian Guild from attacking them, acting as one of their own, Malek would later kill the Mandalorian once revealed that his allegiance was with the guild. When working as a bounty hunter, Malek would often act ruthless and cold, which was seen when he would threaten several senators who would fail to pay him in time. When Malek discovered he was Zenolian, he himself was shocked, know that the spieces had a long life-span, he was sad knowing he wouldn't be able to spend his life with Xasha, but upon telling, he would discover a shocking secret. Xasha herself was also Zenolian, from her mothers side, which began in 253 BBY. Malek would be thrilled upon hearing this, because he knew he would be able to spend his life with Xasha. Xasha herself was also glad, but the two promised one another to live their life, no matter how long it would be, for their love was what made them stronger.


 * "Mhi solus tome, mhi solus dar'tome, mhi me'dinui an, mhi ba'juri verde."(We are one when together. we are one when parted. We will share all. We will raise warriors)
 * -Malek and Xasha during their wedding on Concord Dawn in 21 BBY

Aside from his original traits, Malek also had a calm side, which was seen mostly with his clan or his wife Xasha Lazen, whom he met on Corellia. When the two met, Malek was only twenty years old, while Xasha herself was seventeen years old. At first sight, Xasha fell in love with Malek after the latter had rescued her from a wild pack of dire-cats and few Death Watch soldiers. Malek was however aware to her feelings towards him,but decided not to say anything. In 22 BBY, while on Mandalore, just outside the docks of the city of Sundari, Malekmet up with Xasha, after receiving a message from her, via hologram. Knowing the feelings he had for her, Malek decided it was time to tell her, as Xasha alike. The two would confess their feelings towards one another through a passionate kiss, and would then later share it with a intimate moment. The two Mandalorians would marry a year later, but prior to their marriage, Xasha give birth to a son named Boba Kriya, who had been conceived during their time on Mandalore. Malek would name name his son Boba, in honor of his father, and four years later in 17 BBY, Xasha gave birth to a girl named Mirta "Miranda" Kriya, whom Lazen would name after Malek's adopted mother and sister, following Miranda's unfortunate death in 18 BBY, while for his sister, Xasha used her name as a way to thank her for accepting her in becoming Malek's wife, although the two had many differences that often drove them into fighting, which would once Malek and Xasha were married. The death of his second mother would ultimately upset Malek, but he was able to get over her death, and let her pass on. As years passed, Malek's traits differed from those he had years prior. Training his children in the Mandalorian ways, Malek hoped they would live up to the names of Kriya and Lazen. Despite his hate for the Death Watch, Malek surprisingly developed a friendship with Bo-Katan Kryze, and his wife Xasha alike.

Although most of Malek's traits were based upon cruelty, he was one who would defend his family, and would risk his life for them. He showed a great amount of love and care for his parents, adopted parents, children and wife. His care for his children was msotly seen with his daughter, which occurred when he killed Rien Rikan, after the Rikan Clan leader used Mirta as a dance slave for entertainment for almost two months. Malek was extremely devoted to his family, and training the later descendants. When arriving on Zeno in 41 ABY, the second child of Malek's daughter married a Zenolian, which led to the creation of the Zeno Mandalorian army, and several squads. Because of this, after the Kriya clan was almost wiped out at the hands of Darth Caedus, the clan was recreated, and expanded, including the Lazen Clan, which was reformed by the second son of his grandson, who was devastated upon witnessing the death of one final Lazen member, when he was just child, which left Xasha Lazen, and her cousin as the sole survivors. By this, the following generations of both the Kriyans and Lazen were fully Zenolians. Malek even proved to be a great leader, which was seen when he became Mand'alor and held it for more than one hundred years. His leadership allowed Mandalore to prosper to better world, achieving many technological advances, increased protection, and allies. He was mostly loved by all the people of Mandalore, where after he gave his title to Koi Kriya, he was still treated with respect and high guard.

Malek also had a strong sense of justice, moral obligation, and adhered to his own code of honor. He took only certain bounties that agreed with his own beliefs and brutal justice. But to those few, he whole-heartedly devoted all of his magnificent skill should the occasion call for it. This led him to believe in a quick, clean kill. Malek was also an expert marksman and had access to considerable weaponry. Despite having this high-tech arsenal, he was not dependent on it. He also believed that the best weapon was not often the best choice, for there would be no point in thinking that a favorite weapon would always protect one or bring victory.

A deadly adversary

 * "There's no way you will win bounty hunter."
 * "Are you underestimating me senator?"
 * -Malek and an unidentified senator

A master and deadly bounty hunter, Malek believed that the key to success was preparation and weakening your opponents mentally, physically, and emotionally.Although Malek would not confide in brute force alone, or if the occasion called for it. Never planning ahead, he worried little on confronations that would occurr if he ever met with a little difficulty on a mission, and decided to make the best of the current situation by killing of everyone, even if they were not part of the bounty. Whenever meeting a strong opponent, Malek found the key to their weakness by their overconfidence or stubbornness, but always took the note on how one cared for one another. He added restrictions towards his actions and had limits on how he would do the job, which always led to a clean and perfect kill, and would always use stealth in order to complete anything.

Malek also had little trust in the senators who contracted him for a bounty, even when they lended him their starships, to which he would always wipe clean the navigational computer's data, and any evidence that he used. When betrayed by his Separatists or Republic contractors, he would often kill them, or injure them in ways that if he let them live, they would vow never to betray hi, and would trust him to complete a task without failure. Much to the surprise of others, malek never accepted a bounty on a Jedi because he found it a waste of time, though he stated that he had killed several Jedi before, to which he would never make a comment on. Still, Malek's bounty hunter reputation increased during the time of the Galactic Empire, where he decided to take bounties on Jedi, for it would offer him a high payment, and would take joy in killing most of them. Also just like Cad Bane, Malek would always analyze his enemies and opponents to give him the advantage, which would always work without fail.

A deadly assassin

 * "My job is simple. To dispose of those I am either ordered to do, paid to do, or for my own benefit."
 * -Malek Kriya

At the age of 17, Malek began a career as an assassin, which contributed to that of his bounty hunter life. Malek's assassin career mostly centralized on enemies of both the Kriya Clan and Lazen Clan. Later, it would involve enemies of the Mandalorian Guild. When as an assassin, Malek would often become silent, letting his blasters do the talking in assignments. Whenever taking up offers for assassinating a specific target, he would have his personal droid do the talking for him. This would often reflect his cold and malicious side, which he had adopted after his parents and the entire Morak Clan had been killed. Still, he would sometimes speak, but would be very few. He was characterized as a shadow figure flying through the night, and was dubbed as the Black Terror on Coruscant, and the Silent Keeper by the Separatists. He would even go the the extent of killing notable Separatists leaders when he worked for them, that was unknown to them and the Death Watch. When questioned on his actions, he would say he did it for his own personal reasons.

Malek eventually would change his assassin personality when his child was born, and would mostly confront his targets and kill them face to face, but would grant them peace, much to their pleas, and because he wished to do so. Malek's assassin career became more noticeable by the final year of the Clone Wars when working as Jabba the Hutt's personal bounty hunter and assassin. He never minded working two careers at once because he stated it gave him more of what he wanted, which he had done when infiltrating the Death Watch. In 1 BBY, his most known kill was when he killed Rien Rikan under orders from his daughter and wife, after they asked him prior to his landing on Concordia.

Relationships
Xasha Lazen
 * "The most beautiful woman I have ever met. She is my wife, but don't let her nice features fool you. She may be calm, but pull the wrong cord, and she becomes your worst nightmare."
 * -Malek on his wife's personality

One of Malek's best friends in his teenage years and young adult years, Xasha would also become Malek's strongest ally. Also the leader of the Lazen Clan, Xasha was only seventeen years old when she first met the leader of the Kriya Clan, while Malek himself was just twenty years old. After rescuing her on Corellia from the Death Watch and a pack of dire-cats, the two would instantly become friends. Both would later work alongside one another, as leaders of their respective clans.Over time, both began to develop romantic feelings for one another, despite the fact that Xasha had already developed them upon their first meeting, during her rescue mission on Corellia. After Malek handed his leadership of the Kriya Clan to his sister Mirta Kriya (later known as Mirta Kriya I) left Concord Dawn in 25 BBY, to join the Death Watch, under infiltration, in the hopes of achieving his plans for revenge, which he had stated out at the time he assumed leadership of the Kriya Clan. Malek's depart from Concord Dawn greatly saddened her, although the latter had bidded farewell to her, and said he would return to her. Unknown to Malek, in 24 BBY, Xasha would also join the Death Watch, after her father Cristen Rikan, was killed while he was returning to Concord, having his ship shot down by the splinter group. The two would meet once more in 22 BBY, where both expressed their feelings for one another, and ended up sharing the moment again that very same day. It would lead to the conception of their first child, who would be named Boba Kriya. The to would get married in 21 BBY, after the birth of Boba, and lead to a reformed friendship between Xasha, Malek's adopted sister Mirta Kriya, which later on in 17 BBY, Malek and Xasha gave birth to Mirta Kriya, which Xasha named after her new sister-in-law. Both Malek and Xasha, after years of infiltrating the Death Watch, and serving the Galactic Republic once more, as bounty hunters, the two would then pledged their services to the newly formed Galactic Empire in 19 BBY, until 1 BBY. For several years after, Malek and Xasha's love for one another grew stronger, and became their strength. It would not get in their way whenever they fought wars, especially against the Rikan Clan, which numerous clans were involved in a decade long war. The two would serve together for another few years, until 36 ABY, when Malek began his first solo career, and would remain true to it until 91 ABY. Although, many believe it to be contradicted after he left with his family to Zeno, but which was later proven, that Malek's words were true. He did train with his family, and Ren Ion during that time, but would continue to work alone as both a bounty hunter and mercenary, including several times, Malek would once more become an assassin, that then ended in 124 ABY.

When Malek became Mand'alor, he and Xasha would serve as rightful rulers, and often spent their time alone, which led to the birth of Xasha's final child in 158 ABY, whom they would name Cristen Kriya. Sveral decades later, in the years of 189-212 ABY, Xasha fell ill to a mysterious illness. Despite the fact she was able to live longer, although diagnosed, her health would later fail. She would later die peacefully in her bed in the arms of Malek after both had their final kiss. After her death, Malek donned a necklace that she held for the majority of her life. In her honor, Malek named one of his ships after her, and would continue to love her for several years after. In the end, Malek realized that it was Xash'a love that gave him strength in the end, and she would always be watching him. In 300 ABY, Xasha's body was then moved to Zeno, along with her statue, following the collapse of Mandalore when Koi Kriya was killed by a corruptible Mandalorian warrior, whom Malek's son would kill in vengeance, to then take the title of Mandalore with help from his sister and Malek himself.

Pre Vizsla
 * "To be true, Kaysh mirsh solus. I hate him. He is no verd."
 * -Malek on Pre Vizsla

The leader of the Mandalorian splinter group named the Death Watch. Malek himself had a strong and deadly hate for Pre Vizsla, leading to the point of where Malek picked up the Death Watch leader from his neck and lifted him up in the air, after Vizsla offended Malek's Zenolian heritage. Malek, however, had very few interactions with Vizsla, mostly keeping to himself while infiltrating the Death Watch. The only times Malek spoke with Vizsla was during small conferences, accepting missions, when with Bo-Katan, and during the missions to Mustafar, Nal Hutta, and Tatooine, when Death Watch allied themselves with Darth Maul to takeover the planet of Mandalore. Malek last spoke to Vizsla prior to the Death Watch leader's death at the hands of Maul.

Languages Spoken

 * "It pays to know many dialects and languages. It just may save you."
 * -Malek Kriya

Malek knew several languages, and had learned a lot throughout his life. Malek's primary language was Mando'a which he learned from his parents and adopted parents. Later on, in his teenage years, Malek learned several other dialects, and the main one was Concordian. Other known languages were Huttese, Ithorese, Genosian, Catharese, Kreva, Twi'leki, Kaminoan, and several others.

Helmet

 * "This is me in person."
 * -Malek Kriya to Bossk regarding his helmet

Malek's Mandalorian helmet recorded video and played it back on command, dispensed water, compensated automatically for low or high light conditions, picked up on minute sounds and amplified them and could connect with the onboard computer of Revenant, assuming the transmission wasn't being jammed. The helmet also had the capability of sealing to compensate for pressure changes, and holding 5 to 10 minutes of air, though damage may have disabled this feature at some point in the Clone Wars.

Malek can also control weapons, sensors, and his jet pack with verbal commands. His helmet's HUD (head-up-display) featured information on the surrounding environment as well as a 360-degree field of vision. The HUD's data streams could be controlled by eye movements and blinking. In addition, an advanced penetrating radar allowed his HUD to provide information on nearby rooms, and can be used to scan the HoloNet and connect with databases, allowing him to perform tasks which would normally require a computer terminal, such as searching databases for individuals or even trading on the stock market and buying real estate, from anywhere that was accessible through the HoloNet. The macrobinocular viewplate can be magnified to allow Malek to see great distances, and was equipped with, among other things, an infrared scanner that could be magnified up to 50 times. The infrared scanner magnified light up to 100 times or displayed heat gradations.

The helmet's broad band antenna is capable of intercepting and unscrambling comlink and starship comm transmissions. Also, with assistance from his ships computer, jamming transmissions or sending fake transmissions, even while not in his ship. At the top of the antenna was a rangefinder capable of tracking up to 30 targets from a distance of 100 meters. The rangefinder fed data to a display overlay inside the helmet showing range and movement for targets in a 360 degree radius. The overlay also linked to Malek's weapons systems to display fire vector and range data. The rangefinder can be deployed horizontally or vertically.

The environmental filter system can filter out poisons and contaminants as well as provide Malek with a two hour reserve air tank.

Armour/clothing
Malek's Mandalorian armor was originally constructed from duroplast, allowing it to sustain a great deal of damage without degrading. His armor also has two shoulder pads which were black, like his kneepads. The left shoulder pad exhibited the Mandalorian skull logo, while his right chest plate displayed an emblem of unknown origin. Malek wore several Mandalorian armors throughout his life, but all consisted of the same material. Malek's armor was also able to resist lightsaber attacks.

Malek wears a power armor liner. This liner shirt has a micro energy field projector and two layers of thin ceramic plates, in order to disperse physical and blast impacts, reducing injuries and likelihood of knockdowns. The power liner also gives him increased protection from fire, acid, intense heat, and cold. His main clothing is a reinforced armor mesh battle/flight suit. The inner lining of the suit blocked poisons and corrosives for a period of time. This suit has pockets on his hips and thighs (one on each side).

Malek wears a leather utility belt that has ten leather pouches. Below this he wears a Journeyman Protector honor sash. Attached to his right shoulder is three braided Wookiee scalps. The battle/flight suit has pockets on his shins which contained an anti-security blade, a survival knife, a jet-pack adjustment tool, and a sonic-beam weapon. Malek also wears spats around his ankles to help prevent debris from going into his boots. They are smaller than standard spats, they are made of a light colored cloth and attached behind the ankle as opposed to under the boot.

Malek wears a pair of versatile boots that has two spikes attached to the front of each. The most known armors worn by Malek were the Death Watch Armor (both the soldier and lieutent armor), Nite Owl armor (modified for male), Mandalorian super commando armor, Red Kriyan armor, Green Kriyan Leader Armor, and later his own refurbished Black Mandalorian armor. Folowing his time with the Galactic Empire, Mlek constructed durasteel armor only to later recontruct it with Beskar.

Jetpack
Malek wore a Mitrinomon Z-6 jetpack, which was seen on all of his armors, but each were styled in different ways and sizes. The fuel tank was able to hold enough fuel to give him three 20-second blasts, 20 three-second blasts or one minute of continuous operation. Every three second blast moved Malek up to 100 meters horizontally or 7 meters vertically. Fett could reach a top speed of 145 kilometers per hour with a maximum range of two kilometers. Directional thrusters featured gyro-stabilizers to apply counter-thrust for maneuvering and landing.The top of his jetpack consisted of three long-range missles, that could reach targets up to almost 30 feet away, as even it contained a turbo-projected magnetic grappling hook with 20-meter lanyard (replaceable with 100 meters). This was however replaceable with his anti-veicle homing missles that he used when attacking multiple targets, whowere either speeidng away, or were chasing him. Malek was also known for creating his own Mitrinomon Z-6 jetpacks, that always worked without fail, and were also made with an anti-magnetic material that kept him from being puled by magnetic field, giving him an advantage in flight, as to even fly faster. Malek was also mostly known for having several similarities in equipment,to hat of which Boba Fett himself had. This caused the two to often be compared, but the two always cleared out that they were different in many ways.

Arsenal/Weaponry

 * "The amount of weapons I have means nothing unless you have a brain on how to use them properly."
 * -Malek Kriya

Malek had a variety of weapons that he used when either working as a bounty hunter or assassin. His primary weapon during the early years of his life was a typical type of Mandalorianblaster, a blaster carbine, two WESTAR-35 blaster pistols, and two Jedi lightsabers, both consisted of blue-synthetic crystals. However, once Malek began his career as an assassin and bounty hunter, Malek's primary weapons of choice were either a Adventuer slugthrower rifle or a X-45 sniper rifle, which he shot with incredible and deadly accuracy. Malek had several sniper rifles, of which he made himself, which proved to be far better in shooting range, and had better magnifying scopes, also accuracy, than those he bought. Also, Malek had two Warlord pistols, which were his signature weapons in close kills, or when he wanted to kill his target in point blank range. Although he was not a Jedi, Malek knew how to perfectly wield a lightsaber, as he even knew quite a few styles, and such were the Jar'Kai, Soresu, and the Makashi. This would shock several members of the Jedi Oder, and such were Shaak Ti, Luminara Unduli, Yoda, and several more. It was more shocking when he was able to defeat Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, and Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano single handedly, despite the Jedi's advantages with the Force. During this time, Malek had kept his Zenolian heritage to the Jedi a secret. When working for the Jedi, Malek gained an interest in sparring with several Jedi Masters of the order. His most common victories in a sparring match was against Luminara Unduli, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu, and surpringly, Shaak Ti, who was labeled as one of the most powerful masters of the Jedi Order. Almost a year after the death of Pre Vizsla, the former Death Watch leader had lost his Darksaber to the Sith Lord Darth Maul during their duel. However the Sith Lord lost it after he was defeated by his former master Darth Sidious, which also attributed to the death of his brother Savage Opress at the hands of the Dark Lord of the Sith, in which the darksaber would later come into Malek's possession, which he donned as his own, after finding it. After using cutting-edge technology, Malek revealed that he had built a Darksaber, years prior to joining the Death Watch. His first Darksaber was seen during his mission on Carlac. Malek would still continue to use the Jedi lightsabers he had, until he gave one each to his son and daughter when they were both teenagers. However, in 267 ABY, Malek lost Pre Vizsla's darksaber during a duel with Darth Xhaltan, after it was blown away from his hand by a strong blow. However it was quickly replaced with the Sith Lord's own lightsaber after Malek killed him by using his Zenolian power Kad'evor lightning, that sent Xhaltan plummeting to his death fifty feet to the floor, during which Malek pulled the lightsaber towards him and donned it his own. However, a few years after taking it as his own blade, Malek banned and destroyed the crimson blade after it's dark energy began to consume him from inside. After doing so, the dark energy within his body left, and he decided to stay with his one darksaber.

As the Clone Wars took it's toll on the galaxy, Malek added several features to his Mandalorian armor and added more weapons to his arsenal. By 21 BBY, one of Malek's new weapon of choice was the EE-3 Carbine Rifle, which was seen by the time of the Takeover of Mandalore. His first added weapon was a self-customized blaster pistol, given to him by his adopted mother, upon his ascension as leader of the Kriyan Clan, that bared similar resemblance to the same pistol his father Boba Morak had. His second sidearm was a concussion grenade launcher, given to him by Boba Fett, after the latter encountered him prior to the dissolution of the Mandalorian Guild. Since Malek was unable to equip both at the same time, he used one at a time, but was able to switch quickly and choose targets faster than usual.

His wrist gauntlets also became a mounting point for many weapons. His right gauntlet had a Czerka ZX miniature flame projector that a cone of fire five meters long and a meter in diameter. The flamethrower had a corded fuel line connecting to a backpack canister holding fuel for at least three minutes of operation. On his left gauntlet, Malek equipped a Dur-24 wrist laser that had a range of more than 50 meters. After being exposed, Malek added a protective shield that not only enclosed, but also concealed both weapons. Just like Boba Fett in his later years, Malek carried a Kelvarex Consolidated Arms MM9 mini concussion rocket, which utilized computer target tracking, however, he carried it on his right gauntlet. Several of Malek's weapons were similar to that of Boba Fett, as some of the most common were Type-12A anti-personnel rockets, Type-12B stun rockets, and 1126 rockets. HIs left gauntlet also had fibercord whip that had a grappling hok at the end, which was 20 meters long, which was used to entangle and immobilize a target. It also held retractable vibro-blades and a dart launcher. One of Malek's other weapons as a Shadow Tech Rifle.

Talents and Abilities

 * "Guns alone will not save you. You need to know how to fight when the occasion calls for it."
 * Malek Kriya to the newly reformed Kriya Clan

Malek was a highly skilled and fierce warrior. Trained in the Mandalorian ways, Malek evovled to be one of the strongest Mandalorian warriors in galactic history. A master at martial arts, Malek made use of his combat skills whenever he disarmed his opponents, and would make quick work of them. Besides this, Malek was also an adept lightsaber duelist, in which he could even best the Jedi. Malek's known lightsaber styles were Shien-style reverse grip variant of Form V, the Jar'Kai, Makashi and the Ataru. Malek mostly learned by himself, but he did recieve several training sessions from his parents and adopted parents. Malek was also able to dual wield a blaster and lightsaber at the same time granting him an advantage against his enemies, as also a formidable opponent in close combat. He also skilled in using a jetpack, and could even disable an enemy's jetpack in mid-flight. When flying, Malek could easily dodge blaster shots from his attackers, and could even focus his aim on shooting in mid-flight.
 * "Incredible. I expected the Jedi to be stronger in the Force. Yet not even Yoda or Anakin Skywalker could sense my abilities."
 * -Malek on his Zenolian powers, stating on how the Jedi could not sense his abilities

Since he was a Zenolian, Malek also knew how to use the Force. After his powers were awakened between the years of 22 BBY and 21 BBY, Malek made use of his abilities, but never used it against the Jedi, thus was able to hide the presence of his powers. As the years passed, Malek's Zenolian abilities became more powerful, including that of his wife. However, Malek had problems controlling it various times, and deciding he needed help, Malek went in search of Zeno where he met Ren Ion. Through Ren Ion's teachings, Malek learned on how to properly use, control and even wield his powers. After this, Malek fully mastered his powers, including his entire family alike, which included his wife's side of the family as well. Just like the Sith, Malek knew a certain type of Force Lightning ability, except it was named Kad'evor Lightning, dubbing it means, Devouring Lightning. Also because of his Zenolian blood, he was able to see in the dark 25x more clearly than humans, 15x clearer than a human with 20-20 vision. Just like the Zabrak species, Malek also had two hearts, which was a Zenolian feature that left many other species confused. He also had the ability to speak telepathically, one that he had accomplished to master alone.


 * "My eyes follow my targets. My blasters are focused and are aimed towards it trajectory. Knowing how to wield a blaster is way more different than shooting. Accuracy, focusing and aim benefit one."
 * -Malek Kriya, bounty hunter, assassin

In addition to these skills, Malek was a highly skilled shooter, with incredible and deadly accuarcy, a master at point blank shooting, and was able to hit multiple targets without moving a step, and could even focus his aim while running, flying, or if his target was moving. Malek's shooting skills were highly noticed by both the Separatists and the Death Watch, and would be called Hawk Eye several times. Unlike several bounty hunters who used sniper rifles to kill their targets, Malek often confided with his Warlord pistols, just like Cad Bane, Malek's reputation as a bounty hunter evovled over time.

Because of it, Malek became a respected Mandalorian, to friend and foe alike. It was also his because of this that he became Mand'alor in 139 ABY. While as Mand'alor, Malek gave time to teach many new Mandalorians who joined the new Zeno Mandalorians and Mandalorian armies. As the years passed, Malek added new styles and techniques to his abilities, which would benefit him and the Mandalorians during the Second Mandalorian Civil War and the Impeial/Mandalorian campaign.
