Bastila shan

"The Force fights with me!"

Bastila Shan

Bastila Shan was a Human female that served as a Jedi Knight during the Jedi Civil War. Born on
the planet Talravin to Helena Shan and a treasure hunter, her mother gave her up to the Jedi Order,
believing that their lifestyle of travel and exertions was not a suitable for the young Shan. Shan was found
to have an exceptional gift with aForce power known as Battle Meditation; which increased her allies'
morale while demoralizing her enemies. Shan sided with the Jedi Council when the Jedi
KnightsRevan and Malak rebelled against the Council and joined the Galactic Republic in itswar against
the invading Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders. One year after the final battle of the Mandalorian Wars, Revan
returned from the Unknown Regions as the new Dark Lord of the Sith, with Malak as his apprentice, at the
head of a new Sith Empire. Two years into the Jedi Civil War, Shan was the leader of a Jedi strike team
sent to captureDarth Revan and Darth Malak. When her team boarded Revan's vessel, they managed to
corner the Dark Lord on the bridge. Before they could engage Revan in combat, Malak, who was
separated from his Master during the battle, betrayed Revan by ordering the guns of his
flagship Leviathan to fire on Revan's vessel, in an attempt to destroy both the Jedi and Revan.

However, Shan survived and managed to use the Force to stabilize Revan, who was near death. This act
created a bond between the two, and Shan brought the comatoseRevan to the Jedi Council. Both the
Council and Shan came up with a plan, and temporarily erased Revan's memories, reprogramming
Revan with an identity of asoldier loyal to the Republic. The Council hoped that Shan, through her bond
with Revan, would be able to coerce Revan into revealing the location of the Rakatan space station called
the Star Forge, which was now under the new Dark Lord Darth Malak's control. In the final year of the
war, Shan's Republic warship Endar Spire wasambushed and attacked by Malak's fleet above the Outer
Rim planet Taris. She managed to flee the ship aboard one of its escape pods, assisted by
Republiccommander Carth Onasi. Shortly after her pod reached the surface, Shan was captured by
a swoop gang known as the Black Vulkars. After Revan and Onasi landed on Taris, they managed to track
down and rescue Shan. She, Revan, and their companions teamed up with the Mandalorian Canderous
Ordo, managing to steal both the launch codes necessary to escape Taris and the Exchange crime
lord Davik Kang's lightfreighter Ebon Hawk. Shan and her companions escaped during the
Sith'sbombardment of Taris, and headed to Dantooine, where a Jedi Enclave was located.

After Shan met with the Dantooine Jedi Council, they began retraining Revan in the Jedi ways. After
finding a Rakatan Star Map in the burial mounds near the Enclave, the Council tasked Shan, Revan, and
their companions with finding the Star Forge. During their travels, Shan watched Revan closely to ensure
that he did not fall to the dark side. Shan eventually fell in love with Revan, who despite his past stayed
true to Jedi code. After Revan found a fourth Star Mapwhich was necessary to locate the Star Forge
Shan was captured by Malak, and fell to the dark side after a week of torture at her new Sith Master's
hands. However, Revan eventually confronted Shan aboard the Star Forge, and she was redeemed from
the darkness to which she had succumbed. To prove her reclaimed faith, Shan aided the Republic in
the Battle of Rakata Prime through means of her battle meditation. Revan then vanquished Malak, and
the Republic fleet successfully destroyed the Star Forge, routing the Sith forces. One year after Darth
Malak's death, Revan left for the Unknown Regions, seeking to eliminate a hidden Sith threat that Revan
had discovered during his time as Dark Lord. He left all that he cared about behind, including Shan. She
went on to survive the era of strife that followed the Jedi Civil War.

Biography
Early life
"Your father loved you so. He wanted you to be just like him... he wanted to take you on his
hunts, but I said they were too dangerous."
Helena Shan, to Bastila Shan concerning her father[src]

Bastila Shan, daughter of Helena Shan and a hunter, was born on Talravin. Shan shared a
loving and powerful relationship with her father. Despite this relationship, she was not on good
terms with her mother, Helena, believing that her mother pushed her father into dangerous
hunts so they could live in wealth.

At a young age, Shan was discovered to be exceptionally gifted with the Force.[4] She did not
wish to leave her father behind and join the Jedi Order, but her mother felt that the life she and
her family led one full of relentless travel and fruitless exertions was not good for Shan.
She believed that her daughter's life would be better with the Jedi, and gave her to them. Shan
was separated from her family and began her training, quickly proving to be an
exceptional Jedi Sentinel.

Shan was discovered to be gifted with a Force power that would gain her considerable renown
later in life: Battle Meditation. It was a rare skill that increased the morale of her allies in battle
and reduced her enemies will to fight. This ability would make her a considerable asset in
the Galactic Republic's plans to defeat the Sith Empire during the Jedi Civil War.
 As a young Padawan, Shan was present when Malak, on behalf of his best friend and
mentor Revan, delivered a passionate speech that denounced the inaction of the Jedi High
Council against the invading Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders. Though Shan refused to join
Revan's growing rebellion, she witnessed several Jedi, including the future Jedi Exile, willingly
submit to Malak and Revan's cause.Later, when those same Jedi returned as Sith during the
Jedi Civil War, she became one of the most active supporters of the Jedi Order.

Jedi Civil War

"When I used my Force powers to keep you alive on that bridge it created our bond. I convinced
the Council that I could use that bond to draw out your memories and lead us to the Star Forge."
Bastila Shan, to Revan

In 3,957 BBY, the Jedi Council sent Shan and a strike team to capture Darth Revan.[5]Along with at least
three other Jedi, Shan managed to board his flagship and fought their way to Revan. Her team had just
cornered the Sith Lord on the bridge, but before they could engage him in combat his apprentice, Darth
Malak, betrayed him and fired upon the ship. Revan was left clinging to life. Shan, remembering that a
Jedi seeks to preserve all life, was able to keep him alive and preserve his mind using the Force. This act
resulted in a powerful Force bond between them.[4]

Shan then brought Revan to the Jedi Council. The Council then decided that they would use the Force to
temporarily wipe his memory, even though being considered an immoral use of the Force. [4] Revan was
then reprogrammed with a new identity, one that was loyal to the Republic. They hoped that, with time, his
submerged memories would cast some light on the many mysteries surrounding him. They were
especially interested in finding the Star Forge and stopping the legions of Sith invaders that were
attacking Republic affiliated planets.[2][6]

Following Revan's apparent death, Darth Malak declared himself the new Dark Lord of the Sith. He knew
that the Republic fleet had been saved from certain destruction by Shan's gift with battle meditation. His
primary objective became to capture Shan and turn her to the dark side of the Force. He would then use
her skills with battle meditation to crush the Republic.

Destruction of Taris
"The search for Bastila is taking too long. Destroy the entire planet."
Darth Malak, to Admiral Karath[src]

One year later Shan and a reprogrammed, amnesiac Revan, assumed by everyone to be a
simple Republic soldier, were on board the Hammerhead-class cruiser Endar Spire over
the planet of Taris. Revan had been assigned to the ship, where Shan wascommander, at the
last minute so that Shan could maintain a vigilant watch over him. Without warning, part of the
 Sith fleetambushed the cruiser. A small assault team of Sith soldiers and Darth Malak's
apprentice, Darth Bandon, besieged the ship. Bandon's mission was to capture Shan alive, but
he was ultimately thwarted by Ensign Trask Ulgo.

Shan, Revan, and Republic pilot Captain Carth Onasi, were forced to evacuate the ship inescape
pods just before the Endar Spire was destroyed. Shan's pod crashed in theUndercity of Taris, and she
was quickly captured by a Taris swoop gang known as theBlack Vulkars. She later revealed that the
reason she had been captured so easily by the Vulkars was due to her lightsaber being "misplaced"
during the crash. She conjectured, with embarrassment, that it must have fallen from her belt and rolled
under her seat in the escape pod.[2]

Without her lightsaber, Shan was able to keep her status as a Jedi a secret, and the Vulkars assumed she
was a Republic officer. She was imprisoned by the gang to be used as a prize in the Tarisian Season
Opener. Onasi, who had crashed in the Upper Citywith Revan, informed him of Shan's importance to the
war effort, and the two began a search for her. The Sith were also searching for Shan on the surface of
the planet, and had blockaded Taris to prevent her escape. Revan, seeking to rescue the Jedi, made an
agreement with the Vulkars' rival gang, theHidden Beks, and entered the swoop race on their behalf. He
managed to win the swoop race using a prototype accelerator designed by the Beks that he retrieved
from the Vulkars' base with help from Twi'lek Mission Vao and Wookiee Zaalbar. This helped the Beks to
maintain their control of the Lower City and their leader, Gadon Thek, agreed to allow Revan and Onasi to
free Shan.[2]

By the end of the swoop races, the Vulkars had realized that Shan was a Jedi, and had fitted her with
a neural disruptor. Unwilling to give up such a valuable prize, Brejik, the leader of the Vulkars, stated that
Revan cheated and tried to keep Shan so he could make a large profit selling her on the slave market.
Shan managed to free herself and, with the help of Revan, fight and kill Brejik and the nearby Vulkars.
Shan was shocked to see that her rescuer was the former Sith Lord, and treated Revan and Onasi very
poorly after her escape. She displayed a sense of arrogance and pride that aggravated Onasi, but Revan
managed to keep the peace between the two of them. Shan was impressed that Onasi and Revan had
managed to locate her, and was horrified to discover that Revan was having flashbacks of his capture. [2]

Following Shan's rescue, Revan was soon contacted by Canderous Ordo, a Mandalorian mercenary in
the employ of Davik Kang, a local crime lord for the Exchange. Impressed with Revan's performance,
Ordo offered a proposal for getting past the Sith blockade, and asked Revan and Shan to retrieve the
launch codes from the local Sith base. Shan was wary of trusting the mercenary, but sensed no deceit
from him. She and Revan infiltrated the base, with the assistance of the droid T3-M4 Kang had
commisioned fromJanice Nall, and managed to steal the codes after defeating the Sith Governor Malak
had placed in charge of Taris. Ordo then took the group to Kang's base, telling Kang that they were
potential recruits. Ordo's intention was to steal Kang's ship, the Ebon Hawk, which would be able to
outrun any Sith pursuers once they used the launch codes to bypass the blockade. [2]

Frustrated with his fruitless searching, Malak ordered Admiral Saul Karath to destroy the planet. If he
wasn't able to find Shan and take advantage her abilities, he wanted to be sure the Republic would not
have the opportunity to do so either. The urban centers of Taris were utterly obliterated in a hail of
indiscriminate turbolaser fire, while Shan's group was still in Kang's base. After defeating Kang, Shan and
Revan barely managed to escape with their companions aboard the Ebon Hawk before Taris was
completely leveled by the bombardment.[2]
Searching for the Star Forge
"They may have found something on each of the other worlds that completed this map. Maybe if
we find all the pieces they will lead us to the Star Forge... and some way to destroy it."
Bastila Shan[src]

Shan suggested they seek refuge at the Jedi Enclave located on Dantooine. They could also
seek the advice of the Jedi Council located there to determine their next steps. The council
decided to allow Revan to re-train to become a jedi. He and Shan often sparred together and
he would come to Shan for advice and aid when he needed it. After only a few weeks Revan
had recovered a great deal of his former skill and power with the Force. During this time, Shan
and Revan shared a dream of Revan and Malak discovering something in the nearby ruins.
Shan rushed to the Jedi Council in the enclave and discovered that she and Revan shared a
very powerful Force bond that had been forged when she saved his life. [2]

Soon after, the Council sent her and Revan to the ruins that she and Revan had been
receiving visions of. Inside they found a partialRakatan Star Map. It was an artifact that had
been discovered by Revan and Malak five years earlier. It's data, when combined with that
from the four other such Maps, would reveal the location of the Star Forgean ancient factory
of immense power that was being used by Malak to build the seemingly infinite Sith fleet. The
Council sent Revan on a mission to find the Star Forge and stop Malak, with Shan guiding him
along the way.[2]

It was around this time that Shan began to find herself becoming attracted to the former Sith.
Revan took a great delight out of teasing Shan after he caught her staring at him. Calo Nord,
a bounty hunter and former associate of the late Davik Kang, was hired by Darth Malak to kill
Revan and the others, while bringing Shan before the Dark Lord alive, but was killed by Revan
shortly after they found the first Star Map. While searching on Tatooine for clues about the Star
Forge, Shan would be reunited with her estranged mother Helena. With Revan's help, they
were finally able to reconcile. She was saddened to learn that her father had been killed while
 hunting a canyon krayt dragon for it's pearl, which he thought would provide enough credits to
pay for the treatment of an unknown fatal illness that Helena suffered from. [2]

During their quest, Shan would closely monitor Revan, searching for any possible signs that he
might have been slipping back to thedark side, although she tried to hide it. She still held a
dislike for the man who had done so much damage to the galaxy, yet she was also attracted to
the man he had become after he had his mind wiped. Instead of being the monster she
imagined and feared he would be, Revan proved to be a true servant of the light side,
displaying many acts of kindness throughout their journey together.[2]

Though this may have been attributed to the programmed identity that replaced his former
persona, Revan's compassionate nature may have also been caused by subconscious aspects
of his former personality before his fall to the dark side. She soon found herself admiring his
passion and unrivaled power and, despite her best efforts, began to slowly fall in love with him.
She resisted such feelings, partly because it was forbidden for Jedi to fall in love and partly
because she was unable to come to terms with who he really was. Shan later noted that it
caused her a great deal of pain and guilt. Though he was now a true Jedi and a good, honest
man whom she cared deeply for, he could still return to the Dark side of the Force. If that were
to happen, Shan would be forced to stop him before he could rejoin Malak. Shan also worried
about what would happen when he found out who he really was. Revan tried to convince Shan
that she could love him and they even shared a kiss aboard the Ebon Hawk before Bastila
swore she would not allow herself to love him.[2]
Malak's last apprentice
"The dark side calls to you, Bastila. You hunger to taste it. Become my apprentice, and all its
power can be yours!"
Darth Malak, coaxing Shan to join the Sith

During the quest to find the Star Forge, the Ebon Hawk was captured by the Leviathan, Malak's flagship.
Shan, Revan and Carth were placed in their own cells apart from the others. Saul Karath proceeded to
torture the three in an attempt to get Revan to tell him where the Jedi Academy was, what they were
looking for, and what their mission was.[2]

After they were freed by one of their crew members, Shan, Onasi, and Revan headed to the bridge to
release the tractor beam. When they reached the bridge, they engaged in a firefight with Karath and his
troops. Mortally wounded, Karath told Onasi of Revan's true identity. Onasi then demanded answers from
Shan. She promised to answer his questions once they escaped. [2]

Just before reaching the docking bay, however, Darth Malak halted their escape. Casting Onasi aside with
ease, he told Shan that he had spent far too much energy arranging her capture to let her escape, and he
wanted to see his old Master in person. He told Revan about his former life as the Dark Lord, and Shan
was forced to come clean to him, telling him about his mind-wipe by the Jedi council. Malak told Revan
that he had been a mere puppet of the Jedi Council. Revan struggled to understand with both Shan and
Malak giving him a different story. Malak made it seem as though Shan was using Revan to indulge her
own interest in the power of the dark side, Shan telling Revan that she was trying to redeem him and save
the galaxy. After Revan told her that he understood and forgave her, Malak was enraged, and used Force
stasis on Shan and Onasi, preventing them from helping Revan while Malak engaged him in a duel. The
duel between the two was brief and Revan managed to drive Malak to the brink of defeat before Malak
used Force stasis on Revan. Shan sacrificed herself by attempting to distract Malak so that Revan and
Onasi could escape and find the Star Forge.[2]

After subjecting her to torture by Force lightning, Malak eventually succeeded in forcing her to give in to
her hate and fall to the dark side. She became convinced that the Council was holding her back, using
her, and so she took her place as the Dark Lord's apprentice, replacing the slain Darth Bandon. [2]

In time, she would reunite with Revan atop the Temple of the Ancients on the world of Lehon, though
under unexpected circumstances. Shan told Revan, Jolee Bindo, and Juhani that she had sworn
allegiance to Malak and was now his apprentice, boasting that she would aid Malak in taking over the
Galaxy, taunting an anguished Revan. She engaged all three of them in a lightsaber duel, but was no
match for the three Jedi. Shan threw a Force wave at the three in order to save herself from defeat. After
seeing how powerful Revan was despite what the Council had done to him, she came to believe Revan
deserved to be the Dark Lord of the Sith.[2]

Shan attempted to persuade him to reclaim his former title, reminding the Jedi Knight of all the Jedi
Council had done to Revan, Revan was forced to grapple with the dark legacy of his former self, Shan
reminded him that she could sense his thoughts through the Force bond linking them, Revan stated that
there was something more than the Force between them: love. Shan sneered at him and said that the
only thing between them was the Force and power. Shan beckoned Revan to join her, to reclaim the Sith
Empire and take revenge on Malak. Revan angrily demanded to known how he could trust her after she
had already betrayed him, Shan informed him that she need not deny herself anything anymore, and said
she would stand by his side gladly as his lover and apprentice. Claiming that she would be 'utterly his',
she told Revan to make his choice. Revan calmed himself, made the choice of a Jedi Knight, and rejected
Shan's offer of power. Angered at her failure to turn Revan, Shan retreated to the Star Forge where she
and Revan eventually had their final battle.
Return to the light side
"I love you too, with all my heart."
"You aren't afraid to love anymore?"
"After this? No. Nothing could make me feel safer than to be loved by you."
Bastila Shan and Revan[src]

Shortly after Revan and his crew boarded the Star Forge, Malak summoned Shan, who was
using her battle meditation against the Republic fleet, enabling the Sith to predict their enemy's
move and strategies. Though she feared Revan's power, Malak told Shan that if she defeated
Revan, that she would prove herself worthy of being his apprentice. She assured Malak that
she would not fail again.[2]

Shan did not have to wait long. Revan and his companions reached her swiftly and Shan
lashed out with the force, disabling Revan's companions and launching a vicious attack on
Revan, which he quickly countered. Shan eventually withdrew and began to taunt Revan, only
for Revan to attempt to sway her back to the light side of the Force. Shan angrily attacked
again, only to meet the same results. Even with the full power of the Star Forge behind her,
she was still unable to defeat Revan. Realizing she was no match for him, Shan yielded,
pleading with him to quickly end her life. Revan refused, saying she could return to the light
side. Shan didn't believe she could, and again begged Revan to kill her. Revan again refused
and confessed to Bastila that he loved her. Shan admitted that she cared for him as well, and
then asked what good was love. Revan told her that she could be redeemed; swayed by his
words, Shan agreed to try and redeem herself. Shan renounced the dark side and confessed
her love to Revan.[2]

Redeemed, Shan used her battle meditation to turn the tide of the battle in the Republic's
favor. Revan, meanwhile, went after Malak and dueled his former apprentice in the Star
Forge's command center, where he defeated the Dark Lord. Revan caught up with the rest of
the crew, including Shan, shortly before they left the station. The Republic fleet destroyed the
Star Forge moments later.[2]

After the battle, Shan and Revan, along with their companions Carth Onasi, Mission
Vao,Zaalbar, T3-M4, Canderous Ordo, Juhani, HK-47, and Jolee Bindo, were honored as the saviors of
the galaxy.

First Jedi Purge

"It would have helped, had he made her understand. But she was always strong-willed, that one,
and did not understand war as Revan did"
Darth Traya, to the Jedi Exile
 A year after the Star Forge's destruction, Revan recalled a great threat to the galaxy that he
had discovered while he was the Dark Lord. He set out alone into the Unknown
Regions leaving his loved-ones, including Shan, behind, knowing that to take them to the
places he had to go would bring destruction to them all. Before Revan and T3-M4 left known
space, Shan secretly programmed the droid to return to known space and find her should
something happen to Revan. Should T3-M4 have been unable to locate her, the droid was to
find any Jedi who could help. At some point, this command became active, and T3-M4
discovered the Jedi Exile.[3]

Shan remained behind with the rest of the Ebon Hawk's former crew, keeping the Republic
safe as Revan had asked them to and waiting for the day when he would return. In the
aftermath of the war, as the Sith Triumvirate and G0-T0, among others, hunted the remaining
Jedi Knights to near extinction, she was one of the few to escape their notice. When the Jedi
Exilethe new owner of theEbon Hawkleft known space to search for Revan at Carth
Onasi's request, Shan was one of the few known surviving members of the Jedi Order.[3]

Legacy
At some point after the Jedi Civil War, Bastila conceived and gave birth to at least one child.
Her family line would eventually lead toSatele Shan, the Grand Master of the Jedi Order during
the post-Great Galactic War era.

Personality and traits

"Bastila was strong, but she was always impatient and headstrong. Malak preyed upon her
weaknesses."
Jolee Bindo

Shan possessed many qualities that set her apart from her peers and destined her for greatness, but
these same traits and the inexperience of her youth set her down the path that would eventually lead to
her fall.[1]

Brash, impulsive, and somewhat overconfident (thanks in no small part to the rare gift that was her battle
meditation), Shan acted as though she were unstoppable, though she was constantly aware of the
responsibility resting on her. Despite the warnings of her masters, Shan continually sought to prove her
worth by devoting herself to defeating the Sith.[1][2]

Shan's relations with the Jedi Council and the Jedi Code were complicated. During theMandalorian Wars,
she trusted the Council's wisdom, rejecting Malak's proposal to join the fightand years later, when the
Jedi Civil War was at its culmination, still believed it was the right decision. Nevertheless, she thought the
Jedi Masters were self-absorbed and stodgynot to mention edgy, critical and overly secretive, traits that
Revan would note in Bastila herself. Shan thought the Council intended to use the quest for the Star
Forge to test her abilities and determine if she was worthy of the rank of Jedi Masteronly to discover
that she was, in the end, far from it.[2]

Shan tried to follow the Jedi Code as strictly as possible, to the point of expressing even more radical
views than some Jedi Mastersshe believed that nobody deserved death without a chance of
redemption, a belief that would later result in Revan's return to the light side. However, she was not
always able to suppress her emotions, and sometimes disregarded the very idea that love should be
outlawed among the Jedi.[2]

Seeing Revan, once the Dark Lord of the Sith, climbing up the path of the light apparently without any
trouble or internal struggles made her question her own devotion to the Jedi Code, even though she and
Revan agreed to prevent each other from diverging from that courseand the development of this self-
doubt later played no small part in her eventual downfall to what she feared most: the dark side.

Powers and abilities

Despite her youth, Shan was skilled in the rare power of battle meditationthrough the Force, she could
affect the outcome of a battle by thought alone. Through this power, one side was granted strength and a
boost to their morale, in addition that side would be granted perfect coordination and the ability to respond
instantly and perfectly to the enemy's every change in formation and strategy. These effects caused
significant damage to enemy morale and fighting effectiveness thus causing two important shifts in the
battle towards the user's favor.[2]

Shan had a very strong Force Sense and could sense disturbances in the Force such as Darth Malak's
presence, although this might have been merely telepathy or an extension of her Force bond with Revan.
She could also use Force Stun and was capable of using the Jedi Mind Trick on Hutts, such as Motta.[2]

During her short time as a Sith apprentice, she was capable of using Force powers such as Force
Insanity, Force Choke, Force Wave, Force lightning, Force Plague, Force Breach, Drain Life, and Force
Stasis Field. From her point of view, she was more powerful than all but a few Jedi Masters, Malak, and of
course, Revan himself.[2]

Additionally, Shan was a skillful duelist, capable of taking on the redeemed Revan, Jolee Bindo, and
Juhani atop the Temple of the Ancients and emerging relatively unscathed, albeit defeated.

Equipment
As a Jedi Sentinel, Shan used a single yellow-bladed lightsaber for a time. After Revan's "death," she
exchanged the weapon for a double-bladed lightsaber, although she later lost it. Brejik found it when he
salvaged her escape pod, and when Revan killed Brejik during the aftermath of the Taris swoop race, he
returned it to Shan. When she became a Sith apprentice, she replaced the yellow crystal inside the
lightsaber with a red crystal. However, when the player faces Darth Malak on the Leviathan, he puts her in
a Stasis, and the player receives all her items she has equipped when she is captured, including her
lightsaber, so Malak may have given her a new saber all together.[2]

Shan preferred wearing a tight and flexible full-body suit, kept in the color scheme of the traditional Jedi
robes; however, she did wear a typical Jedi robe over it at times. As a Sith apprentice, she wore a suit of
black Dark Jedi robes.

Behind the scenes

Bastila Shan was voiced by Jennifer Hale, who shares some resemblance to her character.[8]

In Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, during a conversation between the Jedi Exile
and Mical, Shan's name is twice subtitled as "Bastilla." Also in that game, during an influence-based
conversation between the Jedi Exile and HK-47, the droid mocks both Onasi and Shan. Further, if the
player decides that Revan was male and did not stray from the light side, which was the canonical ending
of the original game, Shan appears on Citadel Station after the Exile speaks with Admiral Carth Onasi. If
the player defines Revan as having taken the dark path, Shan appears in a hologram in the Sith
Academy on Korriban. Shan does not appear in the game at all in case of a light side female Revan
besides portraying a non-speaking vision of herself during a test the Exile faces while in Korriban.
