Creator's Summary: Finally finished this one.

Reasons for reccing: Wow, wow, wow! This is one of my favorite pieces of KOTOR fanart and it's hard for me to explain why. It has this cinematic quality to it and it looks like a cool poster--I’d love to have something like this framed and on my wall. I love how it uses color with the red and black. Simply put, this is an epic art piece depicting the Star Forge, Malak, and Revan and his minions.

Characters/Pairing: Bastila Shan, Darth Malak, Revan (Unmasked OC)
Warnings/Notes: Spoilers for end of KOTOR, Final Battle
Creator's Summary: N/A

Reasons for reccing: Everything about this art is just *chef’s kiss* The facial expressions of the characters are phenomenal and completely enraptured you in the moment and the backgrounds are intense. The comic takes the style of the game cut scenes which makes it fit very neatly into canon and reminds me of playing the game and going through these moments. And the writing in the comic is very haunting.

Title: The Old Republic: Rescue Mission
Creator: Torrm Production
Rating: T
Word Count/Length/Size: 21:22 minutes
Characters/Pairing: Original Characters, Mission Vao Darth Revan
Warnings/Notes: Canon-Typical Violence, Character Death
Creator's Summary: WINNER of 4 JMC Academy 2015 Martini Awards for Best Direction, Best Musical Score, Best Post-Production & Best Overall Picture!

What if the only way to be a hero was to become a villain?

The Old Republic: Rescue Mission is a passion project born from the idea of breaking the bounds of achievability. Begun as a small collective of individuals to soon becoming a larger team, we set out with an aim to create some of the best fan-made content ever to be based from the Star Wars Expanded Universe lore. It is an original story featuring Mission Vao and Revan, set between the events of the KOTOR game and Drew Karpyshyn's novel 'Star Wars: The Old Republic: Revan'.

'A thief captured for reasons involving a galactic threat is the target of a rescue attempt by the Republic’s finest, botched by the fallen hero she had served with many years ago.'

Reasons for reccing: The music in this film is really superb and the action sequences are really well choreographed to create really suspenseful and action-packed sequences. The audio sounds a bit off to me and the acting is a bit variable at times with occasional stiltedness, but generally it’s well done for a fanfilm. Where this film truly succeeds is with its characterization of Revan. He’s a truly menacing and powerful figure. The film does a great job of portraying his philosophy of the Force and the way he tends to walk both pasts by using the dark side to justify extreme actions. And the actor for Revan is phenomenal!

Title: Star Wars Sith Symphony - Darth Revan | Piano & Orchestra
Creator: Lucas King
Rating: -
Word Count/Length/Size: 3:39 minutes
Characters/Pairing: Darth Revan
Warnings/Notes: -
Creator's Summary: From the upcoming Sith Symphony video =D I have a ton of Sith from the saga and EU that I'll be doing and I'll put it all into one big video. I'll also be making sure each one blends into the other and I'll try and put the pieces into movements like an actual symphony.

Reasons for reccing: This music is incredibly dark, eerie, and powerful: through it I can feel the full force of the dark side. Lucas King does a great job of creating an original track with a unique sound that carries with it Revan’s characterization while also maintaining the core sound of Star Wars that John Williams created.

Title: Why Was Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic SO AWESOME?!
Creator: The Act Man [twitter.com profile] TheActMan_YT
Rating: T
Word Count/Length/Size: 49:28 minutes
Characters/Pairing: N/A
Warnings/Notes: Crass Humor, Parody, Use of the r-slur and other “humorous” insults towards intelligence,.
Creator's Summary: Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic is often considered one of the greatest video games of all time, and the best Star Wars game ever made. But what exactly was it that made KOTOR so awesome? Why did it gather such a huge following and what is the secret to it's immense popularity and critical acclaim? Well, there's only one way to find out...

Reasons for reccing: Firstly, the intro sequence is absolutely hilarious and perfectly captures all of the awkward dialogue and janky animations of the original game through the creator’s live-action rendition of the game’s opening sequence on the Endar Spire. I’d recommend this video solely for those first two minutes.

But the vast majority of the video is a really in-depth exploration of the game’s mechanics and storyline that explores why this game has become so beloved even after all of these years.

I don’t really care for the brand of humor that is done throughout the video, it’s very typical … “YouTuber” humor, but it isn’t as offensive as other YouTubers and is at most mildly annoying.

Title: A War of Hearts
Creator: [archiveofourown.org profile] OrderOfRevan
Rating: T
Word Count/Length/Size: 45,708 words, 10 chapters
Characters/Pairing: Male Revan/Bastila Shan
Warnings/Notes: -
Creator's Summary: Bastila and Revan are called back to the front of the events of Knights of the Old Republic to drive away the last of the Sith remnants and at last bring peace to the Galaxy after two decades of continuous war. On the way, Revan must confront more of his lost past and the two of them must recognize the necessity of either acting on the feelings that brought them both back from the brink of the Dark Side or leaving the past behind them forever.

Reasons for reccing: This is just a really lovely fic that perfectly captures everything I love about this pairing and it offers a really lovely sequel to them by showing us how they come to terms with their feelings and emotions immediately after the game.

Title: Star Wars Legends: Knights of the Old Republic
Creator: [archiveofourown.org profile] OrderOfRevan
Rating: T
Word Count/Length/Size: 239,322 words, 41 chapters
Characters/Pairing: Revan/Bastila Shan, Male Revan, Bastila Shan, Carth Onasi, Various Characters, Alek | Darth Malak
Warnings/Notes: Violence, Major Character Death
Creator's Summary: Four thousand years before the rise of the Galactic Empire, the Republic verges on collapse. DARTH MALAK, former apprentice of the DARK LORD REVAN, has unleashed an invincible Sith armada upon an unsuspecting galaxy.

Crushing all resistance, Malak's war of conquest has left the Jedi Order scattered and vulnerable as countless Knights fall in battle, and many more swear allegiance to the new Sith Master.

In the skies above the Outer Rim world of Taris, the Republic flagship THE ENDAR SPIRE engages the forces of Darth Malak, carrying Jedi Knight BASTILA SHAN. The crew aboard seeks to aid her mission, a desperate last effort to halt the Sith's galactic domination…

Reasons for reccing: I have read a few KOTOR novelizations over the years and this is by far my absolute favorite. The author is able to retell the story in a new way that provides startling clarity into the characters and their relationships with one another. I consider this Revan to be the canon one that I imagine in my mind with his dialogue being very much how I imagined the character to be from his sarcastic in game dialogue options.
