- "Children of the Watch are a cult of religious zealots that broke away from Mandalorian society. Their goal was to reestablish the ancient way."
- — Bo-Katan, to Din Djarin
The Children of the Watch were an orthodox religion of Mandalorians who followed the Way of the Mandalore. According to Lady Bo-Katan, the Children of the Watch were religious zealots seeking to reestablish the Way, as the ancient faith had fallen out of favor with mainstream Mandalorian society. Because the Children of the Watch were cloistered on Concordia, they survived the Great Purge of Mandalore.
The Tribe were members of the Children of the Watch, but at least one of its members, Din Djarin, was unaware that there was anything unusual about their beliefs and practices. Instead, Djarin believed that all Mandalorians were like them until he met Bo-Katan Kryze and her Mandalorian warriors, Axe Woves and Koska Reeves, who were members of the more mainstream Mandalorian society when compared to the Children of the Watch.
