Line 205:
*** Again, in all fairness, while it puts the Jedi under questionable light, Bastila does argue for it pretty well simply by asking "What else were we supposed to do?" With ulterior motives and all, it was probably the kindest way you could treat "the biggest villain in the galaxy".
**** That's debatable. Who is to save that Revan wouldn't have preferred to simply being killed instead of having them Mindrape him/her?
***** In any given KOTOR playthrough that is a question the player must answer for themselves. The Light Side ending has Revan accepting what the Council did to his mind, the Dark Side ending has Revan rejecting it and re-embracing evil. However, as KOTOR II assumes that the 'canon' ending of KOTOR was Light Side Revan, the franchise as a whole goes with the theory 'Revan accepted the Council's mind rewrite'.
*** [[Wild Mass Guessing|It has been theorised]] they suspected more about Revan's fall than they were willing to divulge. The sequel raises the possibility that Revan actually chose to turn to [[The Dark Side]] due to the fringe benefits of being evil, but had good intentions and stuck with them. Therefore it was a [[Batman Gambit]] so that he would revert to his naturally lightsided state. Or something...
** On the subject of KOTOR, there's Kreia. Dear lord, Kreia. [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]? [[Complete Monster]]? [[Tragic Hero]]? Old hag full of hot air? The debates rage.
