Darth_Yuthura

Honestly, I'm not sure where I'm going with my story, if anywhere.

It just irked me when I sat down to play the Dark Side game. Everyone in the game talks about Revan like he was this...near god. Unstoppable on the battlefield, charismatic enough to turn 1/4th of the Jedi from the will of the council, a great tactician, logitician, and strategist. The ONLY reason he fell was because Malak fired on his ship when he was confronting Bastilla.

And then you play it. Almost all your Dark Side options are for credits, or bullying people. He kills indiscriminately. Pretty much, even after taking up the mantle of Darth Revan again, if you go dark side in the Temple on the Unkown world, you're just a sociopathic bully.

I know part of this comes from Bioware's "open" system, giving lines for conversation, but all the emotion behind them would be the player. But this even has it's issues. Sure, some of the lines are "[Lie] blah blah blah", but there's no "[joking tease] Excellent! Soon your secrets shall be mine!", or [Dead Serious] If you think of betraying me, I should kill you." Certain conversations are made more difficult because my personal emotion behind a set of words isn't how they intended it to be.

But, I wanted more than that. I wanted a true Evil Leader, not just Bad Guy. Confusion, playing to personal desires/whims/whatnots. That's what this is, really. A simple rewrite giving my take on his Evil Leaderness.
