Aliit Aetos is a Mandalorian Clan led by Aliit'alor Kassandra Aetos. The clan currently recognizes Kai Oryk as Mand'alor.
Culture
Language of the Aetos
Although all mando'ade are required by the resol'nare to learn mando'a as part of their cultural upbringing and education, aliit aetos over time under the tutelage of the first alor and armourer; Kassandra Aetos departed from the contextually specific language for internal use in favour of a new, more extensive language. This new text eventually came to be known as Glóssa'aetoú, which roughly translates into galactic basic as 'Language of the Aetos' and currently has translations for most; if not all of the galactic basic language.
The tale of the languages origins is told to be derived from the first armourers interpretations of calling sounds made by Ikaros, an Eye-snatcher and Kassandra's closest companion, along with a mixture of classic mando'a punctuation and words. Over the years Kassandra was able to observe a plethora of calling cries made by the Eye-snatcher in a number of different environments, documenting them. Initially this was a venture for her to learn how to communicate with her companion so that Ikaros could more efficiently aid her life as a mercenary, but as she transitioned into Mandalorian lifestyle and her aliit grew in size, she realised it could also serve as a psuedo-secret language that the clan could use to ensure safety of all members no matter the situation.
Although the language primarily existed purely as a way to vocally communicate between the members of the aliit, it was eventually written to text so that future generations could learn the language with ease, as well as providing the same safety for the aliit when communicative via other methods where vocalisation was impossible; such as sending encoded messages that only those of aliit aetos could comprehend. Glóssa'aetoú would follow a similar hieroglyphic style as mando'a in it's design, allowing for relatively easy transcription as well as practical application over aesthetic design.

Canons of Honour
The Resol'nare is to be followed in our daily lives, but the canons of honor apply in this context aswell, derived from the principles of the Six Actions but focusing on a different aspect of life. Unlike the Resol’nare, the Canons of Honor are much looser in interpretation, each Mandalorian able to take the Canons and apply them to their life differently. The actions are necessary and essential, the canons separate the thugs from the warriors, both complete us and make us Mando'ade.
Strength
- Η ΔΥΝΑΜΗ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΖΩΗ, ΓΙΑΤΙ ΟΙ ΙΣΧΥΡΟΙ ΕΧΟΥΝ ΤΟ ΔΙΚΑΙΩΜΑ ΣΤΗΝ ΚΥΡΙΑΡΧΙΑ
- Strength is Life, for the Strong have the right to Rule
It is by these words that we determine our worth in combat and in our existence. Strength is a broad term, and touches every aspect of Mando'ade life, the strength to live and survive, the strength to teach and exert oneself to do great things for our people, and the strength to persist as a culture for millennia more as we carve our place in the galaxy. It is by our own mettle we stand strong and united, ready to lead by example for the generations to come after us, and they for the next.
Honour
- Η ΤΙΜΗ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΖΩΗ, ΧΩΡΙΣ ΤΙΜΗ, Η ΖΩΗ ΜΑΣ ΧΑΝΕΤΑΙ
- Honour is Life, for with no Honour, one may as well be Dead
Mandalorians have been scrutinised by many in the past and will surely be in the future, for indeed, we differ greatly from most of the outsiders we face and interact with on a regular basis. The concept of honour differs greatly between warrior to warrior, clan to clan, but one steadfast rule is to always strive to walk the honourable path in life, be good to your people, rely on your own strength in battle and never falter even in the darkest of times. But if we simply adhere to our whims, give way to stagnation and become lazy, lest we forget our roots, then we have no right to be Mando'ade any longer. For any true warrior walking the honourable path, to be stripped of our right to call ourselves by that name is a fate equivalent to or worse than death itself.
Loyalty
- Η ΠΙΣΤΗ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΖΩΗ, ΓΙΑΤΙ ΧΩΡΙΣ ΤΗΝ ΟΜΑΔΑ ΤΗΣ, ΔΕΝ ΕΧΕΙ ΣΚΟΠΟ
- Loyalty is Life, for without one's Clan, one has no Purpose
Every Mandalorian carries with them a name, this sacred name unites all those under this banner in an unbreakable bond. To be without one, and without our kin is to lose a part of ourselves, for we are not complete without those we would call family. Protect them then and vie for their well-being, for this is our lot in life.
Death
- Ο ΘΑΝΑΤΟΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΖΩΗ, ΚΑΠΟΙΟΣ ΠΡΕΠΕΙ ΝΑ ΠΕΘΑΝΕΙ ΚΑΘΩΣ ΕΧΟΥΝ ΖΗΣΕΙ
- Death is Life, One should Die as they have Lived
One should Die as they have Lived, legacy is important in order to leave a mark on the galaxy and the people within it. We are judged for all that we do in life, so by all accounts we should be remembered for what we are, Warriors, Mandalorians, Brothers and Sisters. The only life you are afforded is this one, make it count for you, your clan and your legacy, live honourably, and die proud that you have made your mark.
