The series takes place five years after the events of Return of the Jedi and 25 years prior to the events of The Force Awakens.

Din Djarin, commonly known as "the Mandalorian" or "Mando" for short, is a bounty hunter during the New Republic Era.

Beskar, also known as Mandalorian steel, is an alloy notable for its high tolerance to extreme forms of damage.

Life Day was a central part of the plot for the much maligned Star Wars Holiday Special (1978).

A former military craft used to patrol local territories in the time before the Empire, the Razor Crest is the Mandalorian's trusty transport and living quarters as he scours the Outer Rim for fugitives.

The Child, colloquially referred to as "Baby Yoda" by fans and the media, is a member of the same alien species as Jedi Master Yoda.

Kuiil teaches the Mandalorian to ride a Blurrg in order to traverse the local terrain.

Upon reaching the Nikto hideout, the Mandalorian is forced to team up with bounty droid IG-11. Together, they clear the facility of its guards and discover that the bounty is a green, big-eared, fifty-year-old infant.

The Mandalorian grudgingly bargains with the Jawas who agree to return his ship's parts if he will retrieve "The Egg".

When Kuiil wishes to put his foot down, he ends discussion with the phrase "I have spoken."
