From left to right: Sith acolyte, the Dark Lord Darth Revan, his Sith apprentice Darth Malak, Revan’s assassin droid HK-47, and a Sith trooper.<\/em><\/p>\n \n A long time ago, even by Star Wars standards, <\/em>a thousand years before the Clone Wars the Old Republic and the Jedi knights were the the hammer of justice in the galaxy.\u00a0 At the same time the planet of Mandalore <\/em>and its warrior clans of super commandos(ancestors of the great Jango and Boba Fett)\u00a0 were <\/em>on a conquest of all the planets around theirs.\u00a0 Eventually the Mandalorians and their greedy conquering came to the eye of the Republic and the two societies went to war in a great bloody conflict known as the Mandalorian Wars.\u00a0 Many Jedi perished in the chaos and the control of the armies of the Republic fell to a young charismatic Jedi named Revan and his apprentice Malak.\u00a0 Angered by the toll the war was taking, Revan led a brutal campaign against the Mandalorians that many of the older Jedi thought skimmed too close to the Dark Side, yet Revan was increasingly popular among the younger Jedi and gathered many followers.\u00a0 Revan led the war to a sweeping finish and forced the Mandalorians to dismantle their fearsome basilisk war droid mounts.\u00a0 Hailed as a hero, Revan, Malak, and their following took off toward unknown space claiming to look for the rest of the Mandalorian fleet, when in reality they were questing for the legendary Star Forge, a giant automated factory designed to create the ultimate army.\u00a0 Revan and Malak found a map written by an ancient Sith lord on Dantooine that led them to the emperor of the Sith Empire thought destroyed in the Great Hyperspace War.\u00a0 There he corrupted the pair and told them to return to the Republic as a vanguard to a Sith invasion.\u00a0 They took the information the Sith lord gave them and went to the previously discovered Lehon system.\u00a0 There they crashed on the planet and were attacked by the the natives.\u00a0 After thoroughly cowing them, they had the primitives take them to their leader.\u00a0 In the aftermath of the conversation the leader told them to kill a rival clan if he wanted to know the secrets.\u00a0 Instead, Revan went to the rival clan and masqueraded as a servant of light trying to destroy the Star Forge.\u00a0 Trustingly, they gave him access to the Temple of the Ancients\u00a0 and the pair promised in turn to destroy the Star Forge.\u00a0 Instead, they named themselves as the new Dark Lords.\u00a0 Now Darth Revan used the Star Forge build him a Sith fleet, though he did not want to use it more than he had to.\u00a0 Revealing himself to the galaxy, he took the planet Korriban and established a new Sith academy and many of his followers became Sith acolytes.\u00a0 Then he started the master campaign that almost swept the galaxy into another Sith Empire, the Republic mostly being saved by the Battle Meditation of a Jedi named Bastila Shan.\u00a0 In a trap set for the Dark Lord, several Jedi invaded his flagship and fought him.\u00a0 During the melee’, Malak ordered his cruiser to open fire on his master’s.\u00a0 Betrayed, Revan was taken by the Jedi.\u00a0 Then he was brought before the Jedi counsel where by their combined efforts they erased his memory.\u00a0 With no idea about his dark past, the Jedi recruited him to go after his own apprentice, Darth Malak, who had dawned the title of Dark Lord of the Sith.\u00a0 After several encounters of the worst kind, with Revan picking his memories on the way.\u00a0 In his final duel over the Star Forge, Malak revealed everything and master and apprentice fought for the fate of the galaxy.\u00a0 In the end Revan overcame the Dark Lord and on his death bed Malak accused Revan of leading him to the Dark Side, but Revan reminded him that he did not turn from his evil ways when he had the chance and Malak died with no resentment to his master.\u00a0 The Star Forge plummeted into the sun it was orbiting and was destroyed.\u00a0 With all of his old memories back Revan was unwilling to stay in the Republic and jumped into the Unknown regions of space, never to be heard from again.\u00a0 From the ashes of Malak’s empire rose the three Sith that would become the Sith Triumvirate. \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" From left to right: Sith acolyte, the Dark Lord Darth Revan, his Sith apprentice Darth Malak, Revan’s assassin droid HK-47, and a Sith trooper.
