The Mandalorian: Chapter 20: Bo-Katan’s New Upgrade Could Hint At Her Endgame – Looper

The choice of what creature to be displayed on a Mandalorian’s armor is usually deeply personal. For both Grogu and Din Djarin in “The Mandalorian,” the choice of their symbol is the mudhorn, which happens to be one of the first creatures encountered in the popular show. 

The armor for Bo-Katan shows off a different symbol, that of the night owl, which highlights how these signets and emblems can change between Mandalorian families and clans. However, since Bo-Katan now features both her original symbol and that of the mythosaur, it could mean that Bo-Katan has not yet given up on bringing her people together once again.

Considering that Bo-Katan is essentially Mandalorian royalty, and the fact that she is now fully embracing components of their belief structure, this could be laying the foundations for her dream to finally become true — that of a united Mandalorian people. Perhaps Bo-Katan’s journey alongside Din into the Living Waters (where she saw a real-life mythosaur in said Living Waters) may have caused something to stir deep within Bo-Katan. 

This becomes even more apparent when one remembers that Bo-Katan at the start of Season 3 was content to wallow in despair and loneliness at her family’s ancestral home, but now she seems to have a renewed purpose.
