Darth Revan

**Revan**, renowned as the **Revanchist**, dreaded as the Sith Lord **Darth Revan**, and honored as the **Prodigal Knight**, is one of the main protagonists of the *Star Wars Old Republic* era.

He was an eminent Jedi Knight turned Dark Lord of the Sith until, stripped of his true persona, he returned to the crumbling Jedi Order and helped defeat the Sith Empire he had established. A human male, and acknowledged as a very gifted and powerful Force-sensitive pupil, he was trained as a Padawan by Kreia and a number of other Jedi Masters, both on Coruscant and at the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine. He is also the archenemy of Vitiate.

Due to his actions, philosophies, and involvement in major pivotal events and conflicts of the Old Republic era, Revan is arguably one of the most important characters of the entire *Star Wars* franchise due to his influence in the Old Republic series as well as his posthumous influence on the philosophies of the Sith centuries later.

He was voiced by Rino Romano in *Star Wars:Knights of the Old Republic* (2003), Jeff Bennett in *Star Wars: The Old Republic* (2011)and Spencer Garret in the expansion *Star Wars: The Old Republic: Shadow of Revan* (2014).
