Jedi Civil War . Shelkar was a Chief Justice for the Ahto High Court . The Ahto High Court was in charge of controlling the actions of the Ahto City Civil Authority ( ACCA ) . The ACCA ruled Ahto City and Manaan . As the main judge on the court council , Shelkar was the " de facto " leader of Manaan . During the Jedi Civil War , the Republic and the Sith came to Manaan for its chief export , the healing agent kolto . With rival soldiers roaming Ahto City , the ACCA had its hands full keeping the peace . The Ahto High Court was kept busy overseeing trials and cases for instances when soldiers engaged in fights with other soldiers . The Selkath held rigid laws and as a neutral planet enforced their peace laws with brutal integrity . The judges on the Ahto High Court tried to treat all cases impartially . Shelkar soon gained a reputation as the most impartial of all judges . He often sentenced guilty parties to death or imprisonment , and enforced the laws of Manaan with efficiency and force . Despite Manaan ' s neutrality , Shelkar knew the consequences of a Sith victory . He also knew that only the Republic respected the laws of Manaan . So he made a secret deal with Republic ambassador Roland Wann . The Republic and the Sith would get equal portions of kolto in Ahto City , but the Republic would be able to build their own kolto mining facility on the Hrakert Rift . Shelkar took great risks in doing this , and kept it a secret from the other judges on the High Court . Arrival of Revan . When an amnesiac Jedi came to Manaan , things began to unravel . The Jedi was secretly the Sith Lord Revan , who had lost his memories and was being manipulated by the Jedi Council on Dantooine . Revan was looking for an artifact called a Star Map , which had been excavated by the Republic on the Hrakert Rift . Revan soon became involved in Ahto City politics , and it is possible that he became the arbiter for a man named Sunry . Sunry was a veteran from the Mandalorian Wars , and was suspected of killing a Dark Jedi named Elassa . Shelkar knew that Sunry was more than capable of killing Elassa , despite the fact that he was an old man and a cripple . Revan came to Sunry ' s defense and proved his innocence . Revan was later found and captured by the ACCA , after being suspected of breaking into the Sith Embassy , and raiding it . Revan told the judges that he was investigating the disappearance of the Selkath youth on the behalf of another Selkath named Shaelas . He also revealed that the Sith had kidnapped the Selkath youth and were training them as Sith , in the hopes that they would grow up and overthrow the standing government and allow the Sith to take over Manaan . Revan had spared the youth during his raid , and redeemed them . Revan was released and Shelkar and the Ahto High Court began the process of banning the Sith off Manaan . The final trial Shelkar faced that concerned Revan was when the Selkath detected explosions coming from the Hrakert Rift . Revan once again represented himself , saying that he had investigated the station on behalf of the Republic Embassy . The other judges had not heard of such a station , and were confused when Shelkar said he knew what Revan was talking about . He stopped them from asking questions and told Revan to continue his story . Revan had been told that the Republic had lost all contact with the Hrakert station , and had been sent to investigate . The Progenitor , a giant firaxan shark , had driven the Selkath in the station insane . The Progenitor had been disturbed by the machinery that was mining the kolto . Revan had destroyed the machinery and calmed the Progenitor . The Selkath believed that the Progenitor was the ancestor of their species and revered her as the protector and source of their kolto . Thus , the Ahto High Court commended Revan for his actions and released him . Personality and traits . Shelkar was a very calm individual . He was very good at setting his personal feelings aside in order to remain impartial during a case . As such he treated both the Republic and Sith with equal ferocity . He was always fair , and supported and enforced the laws of Manaan with rigid efficiency . He was so effective , that some believed him to be on the brink of cruelty . He did not tire easily , and was always polite when speaking to others . During a case however , he remained vigilant and wary of treachery . He always did his best to uncover the truth . When delivering a verdict , Shelkar ' s opinion was always the most highly valued . Always contemplative , he weighed the factors of a case very delicately . As such , he was always the last judge to speak his mind . Behind the scenes . If the player did not decide to follow the Sunry quest , then Shelkar may not have presided over his trial .
