Character Name: Revan Series: Star Wars: The Old Republic: Revan and The Old Republic supplemented by Knights of the Old Republic Age: Appears to be in his mid-thirties, actually around 300-ish From When?: After he dies as in Shadows of Revan
Inmate/Warden: Warden. He's been a hero and a villain. He knows both sides of the coin and has, with help, come back himself and brought his wife back from the Dark Side. Item: his lightsaber
Abilities/Powers: Revan has a very strong ability with telekinesis and telepathy, able to incapacitate someone psychically, communicate across the galay, or pull down meteors if the need arises. He has been known to use Force Lightning at need. He can use the Force to help him endure wounds which would disable most people and keep fighting. He developed a way to teleport small distances but can only use it under the direst circumstances. He is prone to Force visions, especially while sleeping. He was also good with mechanics and programming, designing and building several models of battle droids.
Personality: Revan is first and foremost a man of deep commitment. Much like Darth Vader many millenia later, Revan's relationships are both his greatest strength and a weakness. He will make any sacrifice to protect his family and anyone he believes he has a duty toward. Most of the time, he has the wisdom to recognize that sacrifice must come from himself or willing participants alone, although that wisdom was learned the hard way.
While he has largely overcome the guilt of it, he still bears the aftermath of his tactics during the Mandalorian War. He now refuses to use large, general attacks, preferring specifically targeted attacks instead to minimize the damage and bloodshed. This generally continues on the interpersonal level. He would much rather deal with a specific problem than completely crush the other person needlessly. That being said, he holds himself personally responsible for the fate of at least one friend who followed him into the war and experienced severe trauma during the final battle.
He is very charismatic and a natural leader, easily earning others' loyalty. He also returns that loyalty and does his best lead well. His sense of humor enhances this as do his abilities as a gifted, cunning tactician. He maintains at least the appearance of strength to all except his closest friends. He does not back down once he sets himself a task. He is willing, one might even say eager, to use himself as a diversion for his allies' benefit.
During the Mandalorian War, he renamed himself "Revan", the name he used for the rest of his life, after confirming the truth of the Cathar genocide. Given that the name comes from the title Revanchist, it can be inferred to mean either revenge or reclamation. This illustrates Revan's keen sense of justice and his compassion as does his very involvement in the Mandalorian War. He cannot just sit back and do nothing while innocents are dying or otherwise being mistreated.
Revan has a very unusual sense of humor. It tends toward dark and gallows humor. It would be easy to misinterpret as him insulting someone instead of doing an impression of someone else's quirks. He found HK-47's use of "meatbag" funny enough to program the droid to use the term about all flesh and blood beings while turned to the Dark Side but continues to find it amusing even as a Jedi once again.
Barge Reactions: Revan is used to beings of other species and beliefs. That will not alarm or otherwise bother him. Some floods will likely bother him more than breaches. Floods such as verbal barf floods will likely remind him of how Vitiate dominated his mind to turn him against his own country. Breaches and floods such as a deaging flood will bother him some but they will likely remind him more of having his identity rewritten by the Jedi as a way to stop him without killing him. Seeing as he will regain his normal memories immediately after, those will bother him even less.
Deal: His deal will be the protection of the Republic against Vitiate and the Sith Empire.
Sample Journal Entry: [The video shows the night sky more than Revan's face when it starts. A deep sigh accompanies the camera turning down slightly to catch his face.]
How often does our future mirror our past? When I was young, the Jedi Archivists said that to forget the past was to relive it. That's why they record every bit of history meticulously.
It's hard not to wonder all it is you've forgotten. Is it worth chasing it to find out what warning the past tries to give you? Even when it ends possibly even worse than the first time?
[Revan turns his head, his face catching the light to show just how much sleep he hasn't been getting.]
I don't regret leaving my family behind. But I hope I can meet my son someday.
Sample RP: Anyone coming in the room will find Revan in a pile of droid parts. He has no need for an assassin droid here but he misses his old creation's sense of humor. He picks up a soldering iron and fuses a couple wires together. The chassis is half finished. This little patrol droid will be perfect for the prison ship. It's not about expecting violence, not really. The patrol droid is just a precaution in case of accidents as much as attacks. He holds the wires up to the leg, measuring them with a sure eye. He smiles in satisfaction. He fastens them in place with a clip. He hums a jaunty tune quietly to himself as he assembles a small motor around the knee joint. It's a Mandalorian song he learned from Canderous about a warlord and his various conquests. "Here you go, little meatbag-lover," he murmurs with a smirk as he wrestles with the last small piece. "Almost ready to walk. Be a good droid for your dad, now, and just. Fit. In. Place."
