Revan

Revan is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise, first appearing as the player character of BioWare's 2003 role-playing video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. The player character is introduced as an amnesiac Republic soldier whose name, gender, appearance, and class are chosen by the player. During the story, the character's true identity is revealed to be Darth Revan, a former Jedi and Sith Lord whose memories were erased by the Jedi after an attempted capture. Depending on the player's choices, Revan either rejects the Sith and defeats Darth Malak, or reclaims the title of Dark Lord of the Sith. Although Revan is customizable in Knights of the Old Republic, later works in the non-canonical Star Wars Legends continuity depict the character as a light-sided human male who is romantically linked to Bastila Shan. Revan appears or is referenced in several later Star Wars works, most notably the massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMO) Star Wars: The Old Republic, set approximately 300 years after the earlier games. Revan serves as the central antagonistic figure of the 2014 expansion Shadow of Revan for The Old Republic, which frames the story around the player confronting Revan and his sect of followers known as the Revanites.…
