Line 1: {{work}} ''Revan'' is a [[Star Wars Expanded Universe]] novel by Drew Karpyshyn, author of the ''[[Darth Bane]]'' series and senior writer on ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'' and ''[[Star ~~Warsthe~~Wars: The Old Republic]]'', to which it serves as a [[Distant Prologue]]. It wraps up the story of Revan, player character of ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]]'', and the Exile, player character of ''[[Knights of the Old Republic]] II''. The story takes place 2-5 years after the end of Knights and three hundred years before ''[[Star ~~Warsthe~~Wars: The Old Republic]]''. ---- {{tropelist}} ~~=== This novel contains examples of: ===~~ * [[And I Must Scream]]: Both Revan and the Exile{{spoiler\|'s spirit are trapped in this at the end, with Revan kept in stasis and the Exile bound to Revan, but they both find purpose in respectively fighting the Emperor's mind reading attempts and giving Revan strength to resist.}} * {{spoiler\|[[Amnesiac Dissonance]]: Upon receiving his mask, Revan remembers everything, including his time as a Sith. He handles it well enough that it's essentially a massive power-up though.}} * [[Armed ~~With~~with Canon]]: Drew Karpyshyn did several things that were considered blasphemous by fans, including {{spoiler\|giving the Exile a name and giving Revan a child by Bastila (although ''[[The Old Republic]]'' had already pretty well confirmed the latter.}} ** On the plus side, he allowed for {{spoiler\|Revan's return.}} * [[Awesome Moment of Crowning]]: "Mandalore has returned! I am Mandalore the Preserver, and I will restore the honor and glory of my people!" - {{spoiler\|As Canderous Ordo claims Mandalore's Mask.}} Line 25: * [[Enemy Civil War]]: The Dark Council. * [[Enemy Mine]]: Scourge, Revan, and the Exile team up to face the Emperor. * [[Enfant Terrible]]: Vitiate was evil enough to [[Self -Made Orphan\|personally kill his parents]] at age 6, and had conquered his planet by the age of 10. * [[Genre Savvy]]: {{spoiler\|Scourge finds himself involved in a conspiracy within the Sith Empire to depose the Emperor before he can invade the Republic; the conspirators are convinced that to do so would eventually result in their eradication by the Republic and Jedi.}} * [[Guns Akimbo]]: Revan briefly wields dual blasters while hiding his identity as a Jedi. Line 44: * [[Pragmatic Villainy]]: The Dark Council opposes the Emperor because being an [[Omnicidal Maniac]] is not conducive to their dreams of galactic conquest. * [[Sacrificial Lion]]: {{spoiler\|T3-M4 and the Exile, although it is at the end.}} * [[Screw the Rules, I Have Connections]]/[[Smug Snake]]: Sechel thinks he can boss around and insult Scourge just because he is a high ranking servant of Darth Nyriss. {{spoiler\|Scourge eventually kills him, of course.}} * {{spoiler\|[[Sealed Good in Aa Can]]: Revan at the end.}} * [[Self -Made Orphan]]: Tenebrae/Vitiate killed his father with the Force when the poor farmer reacted angrily to the fact that his wife had a child with a Sith Lord. Then he tortured his mother to death for dishonoring the family with her adultery. * [[Sense Loss Sadness]]: A few characters experience this while cut off from the Force on Nathema, and have to struggle not to throw up or go mad. * [[Sequel]]: Part one follows Revan after the events of the first game, Part two follows the Jedi Exile after the events of the second game. Line 53: * [[Token Evil Teammate]]: {{spoiler\|Scourge becomes this for Revan and Meetra.}} * [[Undying Loyalty]]: T3-M4 and the Exile for Revan. * [[Yin -Yang Bomb]]: Revan. {{quote\| "Instead of charging forward, he opened himself to the Force, letting both the light and dark side flow through him like twin rushing rivers."}} {{reflist}} [[Category:Star Wars Expanded Universe (Franchise)]]▼ [[Category:Revan]] [[Category:Literature]] ▲[[Category:Star Wars Expanded Universe ~~(Franchise)~~]] [[Category:Star Wars novels]]
