What is Revan's canon Jedi class?

[supernintendont]

I know that Revan is canonically a male, and he is a Light Side hero, and that he's a Soldier, but what is his default character portrait, and what is his default Jedi class? I'm trying to do a fully canon run of the KotOR series, so this is important. I'd also like to know these things about Meetra Surik too.

Revan is a powerful lore individual in star wars one of the few force sensitive beings to use both sides of the force. This is much more potent than being commited to one alignment.

I choose to believe revan's mastery of the force is his strength not skills with a lightsaber although he is competent at that.

I would agree. After all you can be a consular and still have considerable melee skills if you build it right. Considering he's a soldier too I'd say this makes most sense

Easy question. How can people go so far away from it?

Revan was always fascinated by knowledge, always studying. Was one of the characters who most learned force powers, jedi or sith, even the ancient ones.

Let's see:

- knowledgeable
- charismatic
- lots of force powers
- his new jedi lightsaber was green
- his lightsaber form was VI
- he was wise and cunning, not a brute who used straightforward tactics like Malak.

Yeah, you guessed right. He was a consular.

Cannonically, Revan should eventually be able to have maxed all feats. For that, I recomment this: https://www.nexusmods.com/kotor/mods/103

Why does it matter? Just seems very unoriginal

There are two sets of canon. The movies have their own, everything else falls under the Legends canon. So technically speaking, Revan is canon.

Star Wars Legends refers to the expanded universe of novels, comics, etc... they are not canon. the term Star Wars Legends is used to designate those things that are *explicitly NOT canon. it's not two official sets of official story lines. there is one official storyline, everything else written about Star Wars is Star Wars Legends.

I know this is a necro, and you more than likely don't care anymore but, I want to say my peace. The Star Wars Legends, such as the games and books, are their own canon and even then, it does not matter. Mainly because, fu|ck Disney for making such expansive and vast SW lore into non-canonical territory.

As for what OP means for the canonical version of Revan; they are referring to the books having their own version of Revan built up as oppose to the game having so many options. So, OP wants the info from the books for this canon run instead of playing it through as their own story.

Revan preferred one green blade in the Novel that follows after the games. He was a very powerful force individual because he had in depth knowledge and experience with both sides of the force he was balanced. Those are the most powerful beings in star wars.

In the Pre disney stuff Luke Skywalker has trips to the dark side and returns to the lightside twice as powerful as before. In the non cannon expanded universe that is Post Episode 6 Luke skywalker becomes a comic book character level of undisputed power in the force.

And in the Official Canon he became a hermit, who drinks warm sea cow milk.

He became kinda grumpy old man.

That movie is plain garbage, btw.

I didn't think it could be worse than Force Awakens... I guess the Dark Sides does obscure things.

Now this didn't age well now did it

Why'd they have to go and shoehorn the Guardian/Sentinel/Consular thing into (old) canon? Used to be it was just a game mechanic, but then it became "ooo, Yoda is a Jedi Consular because he mostly uses Force powers and had a green blade" and they started categorizing every single Jedi character. Just made me want to facepalm.

His default character portrait is scout, not soldier. And that image suggests that he was a guardian.

However, he was described as a charismatic individual. So he could have been a consular too.

My view is that Amnesiac Revan's canon class is Scout/Sentinel.

My thinking:

Scoundrel is too independent a class for Amnesiac Revan. The Jedi Council programmed him with a new identity to keep him under control. They wouldn't want him ignoring orders and running off to do his own thing, (which is what a scoundrel would naturally be inclined to do). Particularly not since that kind of activity in a Jedi can easily lead to the Dark Side. So it doesn't make any sense for the Jedi Council to make him a scoundrel.

However, Soldier is perhaps too inflexible a class for someone of Revan's natural abilities and curiosity. Soldiers are trained to operate in groups and always follow orders. So far, so good, as far as the Jedi Council is concerned, but the more unthinkingly obedient the reprogrammed Revan is, the less he will be able to manage in situations removed from the military command structure, especially if separated from his commander.

I think Scout fits best because it allows for independent operations, and use of own initiative to deal with unexpected situations, while still having military discipline to respond positively to orders from a superior officer.

As for Amnesiac Revan's Jedi class, I think that Sentinel fits Revan the most, because it allows for the most flexibility and the best self defence. Amnesiac Revan as a Sentinel is almost as good a fighter as Juhani, while also being almost as talented with Force powers as Jolee Bindo.

Revan himself IS canon, he was mentioned in sequels(ew, but whatever) as Palpy had a Revan`s legion of troopers. Plus he was canonised back as character in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes mobile game, which wouldn`t have happened if disney didn`t consider revan canon. The problem that we don`t know if the SWKOTOR plot is canon though, we only know that characters are.
