The_Maker Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 I think this is what happened...maybe after the mailderian wars, Malak feel guilty of being on the dark side and wants to come back to the light. He told Revan and Revan got angry and well, you know what sith do when one of them turned back to ligthside. ~snip~ No, you think, so? And I think Bastila is a cross-gender character trying to be attractive in-disguise It obviously occured after the Mandolorian Wars, as he had it when he and Revan found the first Star Map - AFTER the Mandolorian Wars. ~snip~ If I remember correctly the cutscene Malak in K1 still had his natural jaw in place when he said "Is this truly wise? The council will surely banish us. If we go beyond that door we can never go back..." He also says at the end of the game that revan found the first starmap on Dantooine not Korriban so you got your facts mixed up Doesn't anyone else remember the Sith graveyard on Korriban? I'm sure something in one of the tombs had a lightsaber and its pretty safe to assume it could have gotten the best of Malak. If I understand you correctly you are trying to say that a lightsaber just happend to turn on and make our dark sith lord lose his jaw correct? Anyhow, in my opinion (and rather short sweet and simple) if the devs wanted to give us more info about Malak they would've. 'nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthVandar205 Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 I heard somewhere that Malak got his jaw injury when training during a lightsaber duel with Revan. He must have wanted to keep that injury otherwise you think he could have gotten an cybernetic jaw replacement or something of that sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreenGoblin Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Do you think Revan told Malak about that whole True Sith problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 Probably not. Malak didn't even know the Sith Assassins on Malachor existed (check out the Chronicles on the official TSL site). I don't think that if he had known, he would've destroyed everything in his path like he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnarKy Posted October 5, 2005 Share Posted October 5, 2005 To clarify, when I said that he might have gotten it in the battle against Revan's ship, I meant that Revan's tactical officer could have fired back, and Malak's ship was damaged. He might have been wounded by an exploding console. Its impossible, we know that he lost his lower jaw in a lightsaber duel, and anyway, the developper would never had there big boss getting wounded in a stupid accident, when they are wounded its alway in some great duel.

The Doctor Posted October 6, 2005 Author Share Posted October 6, 2005 How do we know it happened in a lightsaber duel? We don't know, it's a possible theory. And how is my theory impossible? It's also a possible theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying that some'thing' in the Korriban crypts might have gotten the best of him. A duel with a rather 'physical' ghost of some sort. 2. When I said 'it' I was referring to his natural jaw, so my bad on that part. 3. Its said that he lost his jaw in a duel. Read 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rok_stoned Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 I thought malak lost his jaw trying to pull apart legos with his jaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 we have information from that link above that malak lost his jaw in a lightsaber duel. you can also try: http://starwars.wikicities.com/wiki/Malak and as for the stuff about why his opponent would attack his jaw and not decapitate him or cut this throat... keep in mind that malak is a sentient being, with an instinctive desire to survive. so if someone were to try and decapitate him or cut his throat, he would probably try to dodge their attack. which could cause them to miss, and just cut off his jaw instead of his entire head. just my crazy theory. that y'know, people don't want their heads cut off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jae Onasi Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I thought malak lost his jaw trying to pull apart legos with his jaw. Humor mode way on: Naw, he lost it after surgery for that mouth cancer from too much chewing tobacco. Let that be a lesson to all of us. I now return you to sanity. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDI Lord Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 The more I think about it, the more the lightsaber duel thing makes sense. As for not killing the guy when he's writhing in agony from jawlessness, maybe he killed his opponent as s/he hit his jaw. But I guess in the end what matters is that I/you/we killed him. Interesting character though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rok_stoned Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 I agree about the lightsabre one i think its the only plausable other than getting shot in the jaw or something else that would ruin/shred his jaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobQel-Droma Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 No, my friends, I have found why Malak lost his jaw! Click on the link below! Malak talks waaaaay too much. Always knew he talked too much, but never knew it came back to bite him hehehe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaleur Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 ^^^Heee. That's awesome. And btw, the cut is clean because he was being considerate. "Someone might want to model me for a video game, someday, and it will be a heck of a lot easier if my cool-creepy jaw injury can be modelled without a spring-mass system." Though after playing through that sequence again yesterday, it's less clean on his left side than on his right. So I guess he was only somewhat thoughtful.

RobQel-Droma Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 You know what, it does that too me too for some reason when I try and look at the pics there. For some reason, if you just click in the address bar and then hit enter, therefore making it reload the page, it works fine. I don't know why.
