In Season 1, the Mandalorian covert is located on Nevarro. The volcanic planet serves as a major base for the Bounty Hunters’ Guild and becomes central to the Mandalorian’s early adventures.
The covert is hidden beneath Nevarro’s city streets and is home to a secretive group of Mandalorians led by the Armorer. The group follows a strict creed, including the rule that members must not remove their helmets in front of others. After the Mandalorian returns with the Child, the covert’s members help forge new armor and equipment from beskar.
Nevarro is also where the Mandalorian meets Greef Karga, accepts assignments from the Guild, and later returns to confront Imperial forces. Its black volcanic terrain and lava rivers help establish the harsh frontier atmosphere of the series.
The planet is easy to confuse with Mandalore, the historical homeworld of the Mandalorians, or Tatooine, where several later stories take place. Nevarro is a separate world and is the covert’s main location during the first season.
