    I had heard through the grapevine that the novel Reven established what the official "looks" were for Revan and the Exile. Since I'd love an excuse to replay both games, can anyone help me out in what would most closely resemble those "looks" in game?

    The Exile's star wars mini is a redhead. KotOR 2 doesn't have a head with red hair.

    So the Exile looks like a blue-tinted hologram? Good to know. :p

    Although it's said that neither faces match any of the options in the game, I actually think I disagree...

    Revan, to me, looks like he could very feasibly be mullet man.

    For the Exile, while her in game appearance is a bit strange, I think one of the faces somewhat matches, and fits her description in the novel.

    [image=http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/0/06/Faces_of_the_exile.png]

    The one directly below the top left fits the bill pretty well, IMO.

    Obviously neither are perfect fits, but the engine KOTOR and KOTOR II uses is much less detailed than TOR; we can chalk it up to artistic interpretation.

    Of course, I'm still weeping inside that the closest Revan face is mullet man :_|

    Although, for whatever weird reason, TOR's in game codex has a picture of "Jedi Entity" with white hair... almost an Atris figure. I personally choose to disregard that.

    I just exploded with laughter here.

    Why? Because mullet man was the character model I used the first time I ran through KOTOR. Cannot believe I "got it right."

    As for the Exile, the hairstyle is right, but she looks so... Asian in the face. Well, as Homer Simpson says, "Eh, close enough."

    Thanks for the help all. Even if the models are not "perfect", the continuity geek in me wants it close enough.
