One of the rival hunters he targeted was Braden, who had found a talented protege to be a Great Hunt competitor.
The resulting defeat nearly cost Blood his life, in addition to his pride, and he remained out of the public eye for nearly a decade, choosing not to participate in the next Great Hunt.Īfter ten years, Blood entered the next Great Hunt, and had no desire to maintain honor during the competition, sabotaging his competitors at every chance. The other Mandalorians in the competition made it their mission to ensure that he never came close to claiming victory. Unfortunately for him, Tarro Blood’s characteristic arrogance and sudden rise to prominence rubbed his competition the wrong way. Under the guidance of Soongh, Blood became a feared warrior and the favorite to claim victory in the next Great Hunt.
Leaving his past behind and taking on a new dramatic moniker, Blood was able to prove that he was no pretender after years of training under famed Mandalorian champion Hedarr Soongh. The son of Alderaanian nobility, Tarro Blood renounced his privileged existence as the heir to a minor lordship in favor of pursuing greater glory and fame as a galaxy-renowned Mandalorian mercenary.
