The Death Watch was a Mandalorian terrorist splinter group that opposed the pacifist government of Mandalore, led by Duchess Satine Kryze, during the Clone Wars. After failed attempts at taking over Mandalore, they became part of Maul‘s Shadow Collective, which successfully took control of the planet during the war. However, a struggle in maintaining power formed between the two former allies, Mand’alor Pre Vizsla and Shadow Collective’s leader, Maul, ultimately resulting in Vizsla’s demise, Maul’s rise to power, and the separation of Death Watch into the Mandalore resistance, which was led by Bo-Katan Kryze, and Maul’s Mandalorian super commandos.
