OUR LEGACY OF BESKAR AND BROTHERHOOD
The Mando Monarchs began when our founder, Warlocke, sought to trade a quiet, solitary hobby for a community. After completing his first armour he joined a clan which unfortunately had little activity within the UK. After realising the UK needed a more active and interactive space for Mandalorian cosplayers, he teamed up with two others to build something new. On August 13th, the Mando Monarchs™ officially opened their doors. What started as a small outreach on Instagram exploded into a thriving movement. Within six months the clan had over 80 members, and by the first anniversary over 100 strong. By early 2025 the chaos reputation earned multiple different invitations to host stands at major events.
Today the clan is recognised by other Star Wars groups and honoured to be a founding member of the 'Star Wars Cosplay Collective' (SWCC). While the other founding members moved on, Warlocke and a new leadership team fondly known as the Monarchs Round Table, continue to champion a welcoming, interactive space. From game nights to conventions the clan remains a true brotherhood for all.
When it comes to your kit, we believe that every warriors path is unique. We celebrate creativity and effort at every level, whether you are working with high-density foam, 3D printed plastic, or any other durable material. We do not demand screen perfection armour, only that it is made of a material that can withstand the British weather. This excludes carboard armour. Whether your suit is a simple build or a complex work in progress, you will find that this clan will support your vision and champion you every step of the way.
A MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER
This Is The Way
"Hi, I'm Mandalore the Monarch. I lead the monarchs, dancing through cons and acting a fool. I'm easily found at a con, I'm the one with the person sized weapon. If you were expecting a mature ruler you're in the wrong place, but if you want fun you've found it."

The Discord Stronghold
The heart of our daily operations beats within the Discord Stronghold, our primary hub for all things clan related. This is our Great Forge where recruits, foundlings, and full members gather to share; work in progress updates, swap technical tips and tricks, and brainstorm new armour concepts. Beyond the craft, the Stronghold serves as our tactical command centre for organising convention meet ups while also offering a social space for online gaming and general chat. This is where our community lives and thrives.
The Monarchs Round Table
The Round Table serves as our tactical command, ensuring every member finds their path within the clan. Reach out to our leadership for guidance on your armour, events, or community integration.

Covesha
My role within leadership focusses on how the stand at events is set up. Part of this does include logistics, but it mainly focusses on trying to improve our set, and how the public can interact with us at these events. I also consider the welfare of trooping members, as many cosplayers have a bad habit of not eating and drinking.
