That theory was off the top of my head, but you're right. In my opinion, everything points to Revan being dead.

If you want my honest opinion, I don't think Revan should have been in the game at all. Death at the hands of the most powerful being in the galaxy would have been fitting to end Revans story.

My point was simple, if the writers want him alive then it wouldn't be a hard thing for then to do and a bit of clever writing would sort out the canon issue.

Also ever wonder how he escaped the emperors prison? Not sure about the republic side but I know on the IMPs side it's not explained. Maybe he has used fold space before

But considering they tried to kill him off in beta. I don't think he will be coming back

Rep's free him...

Luke: "This woman is a citizen of the New Republic, and if you do not take your hands off her, I will take your hands off you."

The republic finds him and frees him.

He would have discovered that he had the ability a long time before in more dire situations.
i'm sorry i was going to leave it but, this statement wrong.

only the aang ti know force walking/fold space, so for any1 else to know it would be breaking canon?

(sorry i paraphrased that, but i guess that is what you are saying)

this is not how canon works, as far as we know only the aang ti know the ability, but we don't know everything, and what we know may be wrong. when we learn something new in a story its called a plot twist, it happens all the time. and it doesn't mean canon has been broken, it means, we have learned something new.

so if some writer wanted to make some1 else know force walking/fold space that wouldn't be a canon breaker, an example of a canon breaker would be, meeting the aang ti in a new book and finding out they are not and never have been force sensitive.

to the person saying if revan could fold space then it would take more than 4 mid level character to beat him, well thats just game design and has nothing to do with this at all, for instance the emperor is the most powerful being of his time, so surely it would take 16 man OP team on double nightmare mode to kill him eh?

lastly my idea of revan being born with fold space and it being a dormant ability, was a quick idea off the top of my head, it might sound silly to ppl, but doesn't make it impossible, unlikely sure, but hey then again revan is well overpowered and if drew was writing the story who knows. but my point is a clever writer, much better at this than me could write this, or something like this and make it make sense

but as i said, i doubt revan will be coming back. there is 3 big ppl that i know of that died, i think 1 will be coming back, i dont' think its revan tho

Violating canon is not a great deal, Cade Skywalker was the first one to use the force to revive someone, and in the game we see the Barsen'thor using it all the time

Does the JC revive someone? I've been playing a JC and haven't seen it happen.
