Maan'Kad, known by most as Kad, is and always has been a courageous, and honorable young man. He ever believed in the idea of the true Mandalorian Warrior. He sought from a young age to become strong, become a skilled combatant, and to always bring honor to his clan. Kad enlisted with the Grand Army of the Republic at the young age of 17, as a scout, shortly after the Clone Wars broke out. As time went on he built a reputation as a hardened soldier, and talented forward recon specialist. This brought him commendation from his superiors, and respect from his comrades. This attention peaked the interest of those outside of the military. Shortly after the Second Battle of Geonosis, Kad was approached by a member of the Nova Guard, and was offered the job of a lifetime. Prestige, glory, and credits, he could have them all if he chose to join them. Kad, seeing the potential in his offer, willingly signed up seeking to elevate himself seeking glory above that of a regular soldier.


As years went on and the Clone Wars raged on, Kad found that he excelled within the ranks of the Nova Guard. He stood both on the front lines as a elite soldier, and as a covert specialist often paired with Republic Commandos and Jedi Warriors, as well as with his fellow Nova Guardsmen. He spent a great deal of time working closely with a Jedi Master, a man known as Woden Fezz. Fezz was a man of honor, he fought as both a highly cunning tactician, and as a strong and hardened soldier. He never backed down from a challenge, and always stood with his men, no matter the odds. While stationed with Fezz, Kad worked very closely as a bodyguard of sorts, but as an equal. He considered him perhaps one of his closest comrades, as often Fezz included him in the tactical planning of missions, and helped him to hone his abilities as a sparring partner.

Coming upon his second year assigned to Fezz's task force, the Jedi and a small company of Nova Guardsmen prepared for an assault mission. They sought to mount a final attack on a CIS base on the planet of Balmora, that would finally clear the Separatists out of the system. While preparing to board a transport and mount their assault, something unexpected happened. The clones accompanying the assault had begun what appeared to be a Mutiny, striking out against the Jedi. A significant firefight ensued, destroying large sections of the forward staging base. Many of his allies within the Nova Guard fell in defense of the Jedi, pushing them to the brink. Fezz led the remaining troopers towards his personal transport, instructing them to prepare the ship. Kad rushed aboard to assist in the preparation. As soon as the ship was ready for take-off, Kad used his comlink to call to the Jedi telling him to come aboard. Fezz refused, ordering them to flee, stating that he'd hold them as long as he could. Some men holding the line outside stood by the Jedi, others ran to board the ship. Kad rushed, attempting to aid his friend, but before he could leave the ship the last man closed the ramp and they began their escape. Kad was both shocked and furious, asking himself how Fezz could be so foolish, watching as the last men were overrun in defense of their leader. The last thing he saw before they were out of range was that his friend fell. He had rushed away past the clones, attempting to draw them away from the rest of the Guardsmen.

They fled the area in the transport, and returned to their base in the Ailon system. Kad learned that the Jedi were found guilty of High Treason, and that their immediate termination was ordered by the Supreme Chancellor. This shocked him, Kad couldn't imagine that the man he stood by for two years, could commit such acts as he was charged. Upon the close of the Clone Wars the former Republic transitioned into what would later be known as the new Empire. The men that he escaped with were torn. Some left the Nova Guard entirely, others remained. Kad continued as a member for a few months. Kad eventually decided that he wouldn't put faith in what he thought were his allies again. He took what money he had made and obtained a IPKC and setting out as a Bounty Hunter and independent Hired Gun. He decided to become apart of the Bounty Hunters guild, he found that the freedom of working alone, working by his own rules brought the perfect life for him. He saved up enough credits to purchase himself his own ship, a YT-2000 transport that he named "The Nightwing" a vessel that he regarded as his pride and joy, his new home. He divulged himself in his work, constantly on the move as his job required. Now he rarely stays on any one planet for long, and for better or for worse, works as he sees fit.
