	The timeline, as I understand it from having played KotOR 1, is that immediately after being defeated as a Sith, Revan is captured by the strike-force that included Bastila and subsequently mind-wiped by the council. So we have four options: a) Revan injured Malak when they were both Jedi (in which case it was presumably some sort of horrific accident). Which strikes me as not too likely. b) Malak fell to the dark side before Revan and they battled prior to Revan's fall - which doesn't really make too much sense because then why would Malak have consented to be the apprentice rather than the master, even if Revan did have more raw power, it's not like a Sith Lord to relinquish any power. Though again, I suppose if the fight was what was converted Revan, and he kicked Malak's **, that could explain it. Still, I think, unlikely. c) Revan fell first and inflicted the injury on Malak when the then-Jedi-Malak tried to challenge him, he was defeated and Revan turned him as Malak later turned Bastila. Possible. Though the way the game phrases it makes it sound like it was a joint decision to become Sith rather than one corrupting the other. Still, the game definitely leaves it open to interpretation. d) A fight when they were both* Sith; possibly even the fight that determined Revan would be the master and Malak the apprentice? I think on balance, I choose c) or d), most likely d)? -----signature----- legatus imperatoris britanniæ superior REMEMBER: X-WING: WEDGE'S GAMBLE DISCUSSION STARTS IN DECEMBER!

	The first game emphasizes very strongly that Malak adored Revan and followed him into the dark side, so I'd think the best explanation would be either in a duel to determine supremacy, or in a duel very early on after Malak got cold feel and tried to pull back -- the Dantooine flashback clearly shows he wasn't as eager as Revan, even if he was willing to follow him. -----signature----- "Is there a captain's hat involved in this?"

	He had his jaw during the Dantooine flashback, so he lost it sometime after that. -----signature----- Take me out to the black. Tell them I ain't comin' back. Burn the land and boil the sea. You can't take the sky from me. - from "The Ballad of Serenity" (Firefly)

	Bar fight in a cantina on Korriban. BTW, when do the Revan and Malak figures come out? I want them so badly, but I'm afraid some jerk ass is going to go to Target or where ever and buy them all then charge and arm and a leg for them on his ebay store. I hate these guys. It's enough to turn me to the dark side. It seems now that "Revan" and "Malak" are not the actual names of the Jedi these men were before becoming Sith. -----signature----- http://blogs.starwars.com/slaveoftheforce

	When did Revan strike off Malak's jaw? Well... Malak is referred to in the opening crawl as "the last surviving" apprentice of Revan. So my guess is that he's the only one that Revan spared after they attempted to overthrow him. This has the nice side-effect of meaning that Revan learned the "one apprentice to each master" lesson he teaches Bane firsthand, and that he is referring to himself as having been a fool. Which I like. -----signature----- This is an imaginary story... aren't they all supposed to fit together, though? An animated cartoon about Obi-Wan and Padawan Anakin would have made more sense.

	As for Malak falling to the dark side before Revan... I doubt it. In the Dantooine flashback, it is Malak who has doubts about the Star Forge. Besides, when you defeat Malak in the end, one of the available options is something like: "I'm sorry I pushed you onto this path. But you chose to continue down it." -----signature----- http://lucidfox.org http://qdb.lucidfox.org - TFN/Wookieepedia quotes Revan is the heart of the Force? What kind of lame power is heart anyway?
