Satine Kryze was a Human female who was the pacifist duchess of Mandalore and the leader of the New Mandalorians. Born on Kalevala, she led her reformist Mandalorian faction in a civil war against the Death Watch, a Mandalorian splinter group that wanted to preserve the Mandalorians' traditional warrior culture. After the war, she helped rebuild Mandalore's government into a pacifist society, bringing prosperity and renouncing violence. When the galaxy-wide Clone Wars broke out, she headed the Council of Neutral Systems, opposing both sides of the war and advocating peace for her people. This led to rumors that Satine was secretly creating an army for the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and the Jedi High Council sent Obi-Wan Kenobi, a Jedi whom Kryze had met and become close to during the Mandalorian Civil War, to investigate. Satine travelled with Obi-Wan to Mandalore's moon of Concordia, where the remaining members of the Death Watch were located, where they were attacked by Governor Pre Vizsla and his mercenaries. Kryze and Jedi Kenobi understood that the Death Watch was in league with Count Dooku and presented a serious threat to peace on Mandalore. She did, however manage to survived Mandalore's destruction during the early parts of the Combine-Mandalorian War and still leads her people thoughtout the First Multiverse War.
