The last scene of the game's canonical ending shows the main characters, including Revan, being honored by the Republic at the site of the temple on Rakata Prime a picture of later events has emerged from subsequent games and novels. Canonically, Revan remains loyal to the light side, defeats Malak, and destroys the Star Forge. Her ultimate fate depends on player's choice to follow the light side or the dark side throughout the game.
Malak later captures Bastila and turns her to the dark side. Revan eventually encounters Malak, who reveals his former identity as a Sith Lord. Throughout the game, Revan learns of his forgotten history and assembles a band of followers as he searches for "Star Maps" to lead him back to the Star Forge, which Revan used to make his army. Knights of the Old Republic begins with Revan awaking on a starship under attack. Revan, severely injured from the turbolaser blasts, was then taken by Bastila Shan and her Jedi strike team to the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine where the Jedi Council members chose to wipe Revan's memory, and imprint him with a false identity that the player creates at the beginning of the game, choosing the character's gender and appearance (canonically, Revan is male). Though Malak believed himself to have been successful in killing Revan, he survived. The Sith won the battle, but as Revan prepared to duel with the Jedi who boarded his flagship, Malak, in the hopes of destroying both Revan and the Jedi, betrayed his Master, ordering the ships under his command to fire on Revan's flagship's bridge. Since their intention was to unite the galaxy under one ruler so they could attack the ancient Sith Empire, they avoided attacking key places such as Coruscant, Onderon, and Dantooine. Calling themselves the Sith, they declared war on the Republic. One year after the end of the Mandalorian Wars, Darth Revan and Malak returned to Republic space at the head of a massive invasion fleet. Revan is depicted as a former Jedi who, along with his best friend Alek (later Darth Malak), left the Order to lead the fight in the Mandalorian Wars due to the Jedi's inaction.

Although all works depicting the character became part of the non-canonical Star Wars Expanded Universe (also known as Star Wars Legends) in 2014, Revan has had a few canonical references in recent years. His character arc was met with very positive reviews from critics. Revan quickly became a fan favorite, and is among the most popular non-film characters in the Star Wars franchise. The character was voiced by Rino Romano in Knights of the Old Republic and by Jeff Bennett in The Old Republic. In the massively multiplayer online game Star Wars: The Old Republic, a corrupted remnant of Revan serves as the eponymous antagonist of the Shadow of Revan expansion. Although they managed to escape his control, the pair remained loyal to the dark side of the Force and went on to form their own Sith Empire. It is ultimately revealed that both Revan and Malak were captured by the Sith Emperor prior to the first game's events, and brainwashed into becoming his Sith servants. Drew Karpyshyn's 2011 novella Star Wars: The Old Republic: Revan details the events of Revan's life after the events of Knights of the Old Republic, and his attempts to recover his lost memories from the period of the Mandalorian Wars and from his travels alongside Malak to discover the hidden Sith Empire. Revan's history is expanded and continued in related comic books and novels, as well as the game's sequels. Revan's true identity isn't revealed to the player until later in the game, prior to which their custom character lacks any predefined identity and "Darth Revan" is believed to be dead. Subsequently captured by the Jedi, Revan had his memory erased and was given a false identity, as part of the Jedi's plan to have Revan rejoin their ranks and help defeat Malak and his Empire. During a battle, Revan was betrayed and left for dead by his friend and Sith Apprentice, Darth Malak, who sought to usurp him. After turning to the dark side and becoming a Sith Lord, he took on the name Darth Revan and formed a Sith Empire to conquer the galaxy, contending with the Republic's armies.
Within the game's narrative, Revan is a former Jedi hero who lived during the Old Republic Era (roughly 4,000 years before the original Star Wars film trilogy). Players may choose Revan's gender, appearance, and what path he follows throughout the game, but canonically the character is male and follows the light side of the Force.
Revan ( / ˈ r ɛ v ə n/) is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise, created for BioWare's 2003 role-playing video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.
