change of heart (Page 2 of 6)

ah but i have a rebuttal you see it states in cannon that Reven turns Light and then after the death of malak he/she ventures out into the unknown region to find the truth so your wrong too HA

you know what we are on the same side here : P

We are?

But he didn't... Even when he was a darl lord that was attacking the republic. He wasn't attacking their industrial centers, major trade routes etc... He wanted the republic strong... Why would a Sith, want that?

In the year 3,959 BBY, Revan began a campaign to end the "tyranny" of the Jedi Council once and for all.[23] They returned to Korriban, and seized control of the planet, establishing a new Sith academy.[2] The war, while bloody, was orchestrated to topple the Republic while doing little damage to its underlying industrial infrastructure. Under his leadership, Sith forces bypassed militarily vital planets that would be required for the defense of the galaxy against the threat of the "True Sith." Revan's plan was to keep the Republic largely intact for the purposes of post-war rebuilding. He even took out a number of political figureheads, such as Yusanis of the Echani,[6] Senator Mimas Yoon of Corellia and Lelin-Dor of Serroco. As such, he could begin his rule with a relatively functional military and economy rather than starting from scratch. Also, had he failed in conquering the galaxy, he believed the end result would be much the same: a stronger Republic, more capable of defending itself.

This is from wookieepedie... So, Starr you are wrong
And Kreia said almost the same thing in KOTOR II

You're looking at the beginning of Revan's war dear. Look towards the end. He wanted a Sith Empire.

"Revan knew that, with Jedi in the war, this contest would come down to whoever had the most and strongest Jedi. He pioneered new Sith tactics relying on secrecy rather than brute force. His Sith assassins quietly flooded into the Republic to kill and/or abduct Jedi throughout known space. Revan reestablished strongholds and academies upon worlds of ancient power such as Lehon, Dxun, and Korriban. On these particular planets, his most faithful servants broke captured Jedi and converted them to the dark side. Revan also kidnapped some of his own Force-sensitive troops and converted them into Dark Jedi. Utilizing assassin droids—such as HK-47, whom Revan created after the Battle of Malachor V—Revan eliminated threats to the stability of his fledgling Sith Empire."

Turning Jedi to the darkside doesn't sound like he's trying to strengthen the Republic does it? He wanted to bring it to its knees and help it embrace the new Sith Empire it was meant to join. Read the books. They're better than anything wookiepedia can give you.

Revan is not a True Sith because he had the chance to destroy the jedi and the republic with the help of the Star Forge but turned his back on the Sith to go chase a unknown enemy. So in other words he or she did not have the will power to become a True Sith and land the death blow that everyother True Sith would do in a heart beat.

Then you are right and Revan was more on the lightside then he was on the Darkside.

I used to be an admin on Wookiepedia but I lost interest and deleted my account. I'm an admin on mulitiple Star Wars fan fiction sites though and give advice for stories and whatnot. 

Yes. He was one of the most magnificent military leaders the galaxy would ever know. But he was still Sith... despite his intentions to save the galaxy. After all, who wants to rule a galaxy if some dark force emerging from the Unknown Regions destroys it all eh? 

Ummm... no. Sure Revan wasn't a True Sith but he did intend to completely conquer the Republic and crush the Jedi. And he would have. His plan was cut short by a little betrayal by Malak. Or have you both forgotten that already?

Sure Revan wasn't like any of the other previously known Sith but -as I said above -he was still Sith nonetheless.

Yes and yet no at the same time.

Certainly. Even better than Darth Vader. Though you have to admit Savage Oppress is much more awesome looking. 

Revan was special.
As for Vader, I liked him more when he was Anakin. He was a strange type of Jedi. And he wouldn't have fallen to the darkside if it wasn't for Chancellors intervention...
