Biography: Larion Gree spent most of his early years learning. His first year was uneventful. He learned to talk, but in a way that surprised most. He never responded to his parents promptings to get him to talk, but on the eve of his second birthday, he opened his mouth and said, ''Father I want a gun for my birthday." He got one, and for his second year, devoted time to learning how to walk. He did this quite well, and was usually running with the best of them. During his third year, he learned how to hold a gun. After his sixth year, he devoted time to melee training and earned marks for his strength and cunning. When he was seven years old, he started doing Ranged Combat Training. He earned merit for his markmanship. He also learned how to reload and fire nearly a hundred different guns. When he was eight years old, he learned how to pilot starfighters and practiced with his Father's. He nearly crashed several times in the beginning, but soon got the hang of it. He also learned how to dissassemble, clean, and then reassemble guns.

When he turned eleven, he started doing survival training. After several months, he was able to spend thirty days in the jungles of Mandalore, with only flint, an Axe, and twenty square yards of canvass. When they found him, he had a nice shelter, several smoked fillets of fish, and a roaring campfire going. At the age of twelve, his parents sent him to a Cross-Clan Tourney, one of the few peaceful connections between the clans, that judged the abilities of the young Mandalorians. He defeated all in his age class and was sent to the next age class to do a demonstration of his fighting skills. He showed to be a promising Mandalorian Warrior indeed. When he was fourteen, he brought down his first big game. It was a Kath Hound, a very dangerous species. He was allowed to keep it's ear as a token, and the skin was displayed in his parent's home.

When he turned eighteen, he was made into a warrior and given his armor. He decided then and there that he would not only serve his clan, but his entire people. He made his way up in the ranks, and soon was an Elite Warrior, at the age of 24. Eventually, the old clan leader died, and his clan held an election, as was their custom. He was elected at the prime of his youth, the age of 28. He helped his clan become prosperous, defeating their enemies and making their youth strong warriors. His clan was soon the most powerful clan among the Mandalorians. His councilors, seeing a chance for their leader to become powerful, advised him to call a meeting of the clans. He did so, and all four of the clans met in the ancient Mandalore's stronghold. Not for a long time had the four clans of Gree, Tu'kata, Zakegg, and Krann met in peace.

Then Larion held a vote. "I believe we should hold a contest for the new Mandalore! Who is with me?!" The clans unaminously voted yes, for they had not seen a Mandalore for centuries. As the tournament progressed, Larion advanced, eventually meeting up with his old rival, the leader of clan Zakegg, who he had barely defeated in the tourney so long past. After a long and vicious battle, Larion finally claimed victory. After Larion had helped the leader of Zakegg up, the clans unaminously shouted his new name, "All hail Mandalore the Valiant! He shall lead us to prosperity!" Mandalore then quieted the crowd. "The Mandalorians have not had a Mandalore for some time! We shall now open ourselves to the world, showing us as a powerful race once more!"
