100% Blind Reaction to Darth Revan's Full History & Lore. He's The GOAT. 

"Imagine a story with Revan as the main character." Ahem...'Knights of the Old Republic 1', my dude.

Me: “Have you ever heard of Darth Revan the Based?” Nux: “No.” Me: “I thought not, it's not a story Disney would tell you.”

Revan didn't genocide the Mandalorians. He didn't slaughter their civilians or seek to destroy their culture. He out fought them and beat them at their own game. That's why they respected him. "It was what we wanted all along, in a way. We wanted to fight the best in a battle that would be remembered for centuries. And we did." - Canderous Ordo, Mandalore the Preserver, discussing his people's defeat at the hands of Revan.

6:35 Revan chose that helmet to honour the particular Mandalorian warrior whose helmet is was. She objected to the genocide of the Cathar people by the rest of the Mandos and was executed alongside them. Revan saw what happened in a vision when he picked her helmet up.

This exists and Disney is forcing the Acolyte down our throats, we are in the wrong timeline

Ah, Darth Revan. The only Dark Lord of the Sith NOT to fall to the darkside.

"Savior, conqueror, hero, villain. You are all things, Revan… and yet you are nothing. In the end, you belong to neither the light nor the darkness. You will forever stand alone." -Darth Malak to Revan "Is (a monster) what Revan was? Or was he always true to himself no matter what personality he wore? And there is something that the Council may never understand. That perhaps Revan never fell. The difference between a fall and a sacrifice is sometimes difficult, but I feel that Revan understood that difference, more than anyone knew. The galaxy would have fallen if Revan had not gone to war. Perhaps he became the dark lord out of necessity, to prevent a greater evil." -Kreia

Revan also called out the Jedi for not allowing love, arguing that it strengthens their connection to the force through others. That love is not a weakness or a risk, that moderation is what should be taught, not complete abstaination or complete loss of control/passion.

"Imagine a story with Revan as the main character" is such a funny thing to hear.

The full story of the helmet is that Revan witnessed a Mandalorian woman intercede to stop her commander from killing defeated enemies and he not only ignored her but killed her too. Revan actually had conflicting feelings about the Mandalorians. He knew they had honour in their culture despite their brutality, and he wore her mask as a sign of respect more than an own.

Nux: "How do you get exiled from the Jedi and then from the Sith?" Kreia: "Because I Hate The Force. I hate that it seems to have a will, that it would control us to achieve some matter of balance, when countless lives are lost!" Nux needs to to look up the Philosophy of Kreia vids.

Darth Revan is what happens when a chosen one is distrusted by everyone else: Jedi didn't listen to him on the Mandalorian war, Sith betrayed him because they thought he was "too weak", and Both didn't believe in his idea of "resurrecting the Emperor to kill him permanently" only for someone else to resurrect him later. An unrecognized hero of his time with only a cult following spreading his name and teachings.

Our guy Nux will get his mind cooked when he will discover "Philosophy of Kreya" or "Grimdark story of Star Wars"

For some reason it's never stated, but Revan and Bastila Shan had kids, Satele Shan, who you see in the Old Republic cinematics and uses the double bladed lightsaber is part of that lineage.

He’s not the only one to reach the level “Too angry to Die”. There is Darth Sion, who kept coming back, his corpse would keep pulling itself back together and get back up.

Any "Legends" story from Star Wars are so good, they could easily be summed up with this one sentence. "*Insert Legends plot here*, And Disney gave us the Acolyte."

The GOAT doesnt even begin to cover the amazing character that is Darth Revan.

"He's The GOAT." You're goddamn right

To cut things short, to any true fans, Revan and Legends ARE canon. THE END.

I never thought they could actually recreate a "I am your father" moment in any SW let alone a game. But that moment in the original KOTOR when you see Revan in the flashback take off the helmet and its the player... That had me jumping up and down.

Yo if anakin is star wars jesus i'd say revan is the stars wars equivalent of king david

Dude.. if you think Darth Revan was crazy for being both jedi and sith then your brain will explode if you dig into Darth Treya or Darth Krayte.

If you think Revan ghost stuff is crazy, there's a character in kotor 2 that is basically blown up into a thousand pieces but he keeps his body together through power of dark side and sheer unfiltered hatred.

Revan was so powerful that it took the combined efforts of the Defacto leader of the Sith and the Grand Master of the Jedi, the later of whom being his direct descendent to take him down and even then, he would only die after he finally found peace with himself. What a way to end a life and the only way anyone can see him going out.

"Imagine a story with revan as the main character" well let me tell you about a game called kotor

"Imagine a story with Revan as the main character." No need to imagine, because what this video shockingly didn't mention (unless it was at the very end after you stopped watching) is that Revan is literally who you play as in KOTOR, the game detailing the events after the Jedi wiped his memories, where the amnesiac Revan goes on his journey to take down Darth Malak. Furthermore, while future stories confirm that Revan "canonically" returned to the Light Side here, as the player you have the option to instead follow a darker path and experience an alternate story and ending where Revan becomes a full-blown Sith again. The game is great, so I'd recommend checking it out. (though you may wanna look into some of the recommended hotfix mods as well, because the vanilla experience can be pretty janky in this day and age)

This guy literally made Revan sound like twice less cool than he actually was and that was while trying to hype him up. Also even though latter half of Revan's story is from questionably written Bioware MMO, Revan did not want to ressurect Tenebrae just to kill him again, he knew that if he DOESNT do that, Tenebrae will return eventually so he will not be truly dead unless Revan ends him for good, and reviving him was the only way. Which was later confirmed.

and that's the SHORT version of Revan's story. He's as synonymous with the old republic era as the skywalkers in the movie era. He's a Jedi, He's a Sith, He's a protagonist in some games, He's an antagonist in other games, he has multiple dungeons/raids dedicated to him, even an entire expansion of the mmo! he has a cult, they didn't even mention his cult! That time he got a planet blown up.... The dozens of named sith and Jedi he defeats... The fact that as a prisoner, he mentally influences the emperor into not going to war with the republic for decades. He's just got feats everywhere you look. Another fantastic guy to deep dive on is Starkiller, guy has some crazy force feats.

Nux if you see this I suggest watching the Philosophy of Kreia. It’s like an hour and a half video that goes into Regan’s master, who was more important in the sequel game. She’s pretty interesting but was held back by her game

7:12 Fun fact: After beating Mandalor the Ultimate in single combat, Revan hid his mask so a new Mandalore couldn’t be crowned. This is imported because the mask had belonged to Mandalorian rulers ever since Mandalore the great, the founder of Mandalore. To this day it remains lost and will continue to be since Disney refuses to recognize the expanded universe as canon.

What Variant doesnt tell you, is that while being tortured Revan was actually able to mentally manipulate the emporer into not attacking the Republic for decades/centuries so that Bastilla and his kid could live in relative peace.

I've found perfect sumarise of Acolyte: "They managed to make cosmic lesbian witches unappealing to male viewers in 15/60 yo range. I have no idea how."

When I was 10 years old, playing the original KOTOR game on the classic Xbox, it blew my mind when 80% of the way through they hit you with the reveal - You are the mind-wiped Revan. The whole time you think you're getting these force visions cause you're just strong in the force and BAM, its actually just your memories coming back. Normally I'm a bit better about holding back this spoiler, but that video basically explained it considering the plot of the first Kotor game is teaming up with Bastilla to track down and destroy the star forge, all which is mentioned in the video. The whole game was made on a DnD system as well, so it still holds up today - as long as you can get it to run. Something that the guy who made this video skipped is that not only did he take out Mandalore (leader of the mandalorians) in the mandalorian wars, but during the Jedi Civil War, he teamed up with a guy name Canderous Ordo, who proceeded to become the new Mandalore.

Satele Shan, the Jedi Grandmaster who teamed up with Sith to beat him, is his Great Grand Daughter(like 5 Greats If I remember right). So it was a family fight. The video says when Revan was captured by the emperor that it was "years" but it was LONG time for Satele to be around. Revan was born in 3994 BBY and Satele in 3699 BBY. So almost 300 years apart. In KOTOR 2 you find out Revan was already missing and Bastilla, his wife and female lead of KOTOR 1, was already looking for him. Their kids were not older than teenagers when she left to look for him and she never finds him.

I'll say this - Shadow of Revan is the most PEAK story expansion in SWTOR. I loved every minute of it and replayed it multiple times.

6:19 “I don’t know your name, but I’ll take up your cause. Never again shall I remove your mask, until all Mandalorians are defeated once and for all. So swears… REVAN!”

It's important to note that Vitiate didn't just torture Revan for a couple years, he tortured him for 300. The old Republic MMO takes place a little over 300 years after Knights of the old Republic. During this time both of their minds were linked and even while being tortured, Revan influence the emperor and stalled his invasion of the Republic for 3 centuries.

@Nuxanor Fun fact Nux... The force vision Revan saw of the Mandalorian massacre, one Mandalorian woman was against the slaughter of civilians. She spoke out against it, and fought the Mandalorian army because she knew it was wrong, and dishonorable to kill Civilians.... She died with the Civilians, hence why Revan picked up and wore the mask. To carry on what she started. (It's also why it wasn't a *complete* Mandalorian Genocide when he ended the Mandalorian war)

Why is when Nux watches something I love, he watches the least detailed or indepth RU-vid lore breakdowns 😭

The whole quote about "peace is a lie" is the Sith Code; "Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion I gain strength, Through strength I gain power, Through power I gain victory, Through victory my chains are broken"

Nux should definitely cover Kreia/Darth Treya. She is IMO, the best written mentor in Star Wars. He might even enjoy her fourth wall breaks. Edit: In case no one linked it here. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--Z0S0Z8lUTg.htmlsi=FGvDl-DSsmoGYBUg

21:16 Oh you're gonna love Darth Sion

17:29 Gotta love the "Sith Backhand Lightsaber to the Jaw"-move being an equivalent of a Dark Side Pimpslap from Daddy Darth Revan! The not-impressed head shake after was the toping! You were NOT READY, Darth Malak! You never were...

18:45 even better, in Knights of the Old Republic, where Revan’s story began, Malak’s tongue was still at the top of his mouth and flapped a little when he talked.

Yeah he left out that Revan was tortured for 300 years he never got to see his pregnant wife again or his friends and 300 years later was killed by his great grand daughter of 300 years he is one of the best characters ever made

3:20 Darth Traya or simply Kreia is someone you should most definitively do a deep dive on. Her philosophy is so unique among both the jedi and the sith, it's actually insane how well written and well defined she was. It's probably the first time a character made everyone question both orders so much, that perhaps they are both missguided. I really do recommend "Philosophy of Kreia: A critical examination of Star Wars", as it goes pretty deep into each side's views.

"Savior, Conquerer, Hero, Villain, you are all things Revan."

Nux: "Man, right before the Rise of Skywalker came out. Back when it wasn't this bad." MauLer: "Well, yes, but actually no."

Revan: there is no power a sith holds, that a Jedi cannot choose to wield.

The sad thing is i dont want him in mainline continuity because that would mean Disney ruins him

Revan was a character that arguibly came the closest to understanding the Force in full. Having a perspective from both the Light and Dark side and maintaining a Grey outlook. He was legitimately an amazing character and is the one piece of content fans won't let Disney ruin

He beat the Mandalorians so hard, they were like "....yo, this guys alright, look how bad he beat our ass"

Darth Vitiate is one of the goats of the Sith. Palpatine got inspired by him to become the emperor.

You should do a deep dive into Kreya and Knights of the Old Republic 2, which is like the best Star Wars story ever

And now you scratch the very surface of the Old Republic setting, and begin to understand why the hard-core fans are so pissed about Disney's management.

I gotta say.....This is the "new" story of Revan after the old republic game came out. Nux should witness the insanity that was the original Knights of the old republic story, in which Revan didn't get manipulated to become Sith. He chose the dark side and fricked up the republic because he saw an enormous threat in the outer rim, and he was sure only with the republic crushed under his rule he could save the galaxy. Old Star Wars was insane man.

You're going to love Revan even more when you learn about the actual GOAT of the Sith, Darth Bane

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a Galen Marek/Starkiller lore vid!!! Trust me you'll love The Force Unleashed lore!!!

Satele Shan, the Jedi who helped beat him, was Revan’s own descendant. Revan wanted to teach the Jedi his knowledge of both the Light Side & the Dark Side. The Jedi Council at the time promoted him to Master & allowed his marriage to Bastila as long as he kept his teachings to himself.

So glad someone recommended him the GOAT of the Old Republic. It's only a matter of time until he learns more of the Old Republic lore. Keep them coming!

I really hope Nux will look up Kreia/Traya, she's by far one of the best written characters that Star Wars has seen.

Darth Revan is the coolest character

Covering my fav SW KOTOR character on my B-day? Thank you Nux!

10:20 Luckily, Nux, we don't have to imagine. There's this little game called Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic...

Too angry to die? Darth Sion?

"A Jedi and a Sith? Is that even possible?" **gestures vaguely in the direction of Anakin**

That video with Malak was so cool. The only thing I couldn't believe about it was him saying, "request a transfer if you must." Personally, I think Malak would've force-choked the admiral (?), pulled him face-to-face, said all that other stuff, but ended it with, "you will follow these orders or I will find someone who will." But maybe that's why Malak was always #2.

21:20 guts is more sad than angry like revan revan is like cave johnson because when life gave him lemons he didnt make lemonade he got mad

Also, in legends (during Luke Skywalker's time) the Jedi and Sith do team up once more. To fight a monster called Aboleth.

Nux needs to check out the Legends canon timeline.

Gotta respect a man who's resume starts with winning a duel with not just a mandalorian, but the mand'alor, who is the mandalorian of mandalorians.

Nuxanor/Nux Taku you have taken three deep dives into Star Wars lore. So by the power of the Father, Son, and Daughter you are now known as Darth Nux Taku and an official Star Wars fan

Honestly I hope Disney never touches Revan .

I’d recommend the old republic timeline video next.

To clarify on the mandalorians; Revan didn't wipe out the Mandalorians, but they had a clan structure and were only unified when a strong leader had Mandalore's Mask, a spiritual and cultural symbol. Rather than a full combat, Revan focused on taking out Mandalore The Ultimate and then hiding the mask, ensuring that any reunification of the Mandalorians would only be viable through long term civil war. Very much a head of the snake strategy. And they respected him because the Klingons wish they were as hardcore about a warrior culture as the Mandalorians were.

Another thing to note about this is that much of this story happened as the MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic released more expansions. Satele Shan, mentioned in the video, defeated the ghost of Revan in her lifetime as an adult, but she is actually the descendant of Revan and Bastila and was born about 300 years after Revan was born. Where does all this time go? It's been a while since I read the Revan books, but before the Knights of the Fallen Empire stuff came out, The Emperor was not yet known as Vitiate, simply being known as the Emperor of the Sith. From what I remember during this period, when Revan went to challenge the Emperor, he returned as a master of both the light and dark side of the force and used both in combat, being the first (chronologically) Jedi to master both sides, the next being Luke. They fought again, where the Emperor attempted to use the force to convert Revan again to the dark side, though Revan resisted for over 300 years, delaying the war between the Jedi and Sith from happening, being stuck in a protracted psychological force battle where he would not be broken. During this time, Meetra Surik, who is the protagonist of KotOR 2, comes in to rescue him, though I don't recall exactly what happens. I believe she fails to save Revan, though possibly she dies here, and potentially Revan does too, or continues fighting and dies later. I can't find the original references that contained this information, since I don't have the novel and the Wiki pages now have information about Vitiate which is different from what I read back in the day, though basically, there exists in book form out there the battle between Revan and Vitiate. Instead of Revan simply being taken down by the other Sith there like some extra, Revan managed to delay the galaxy-wide war singlehandedly. There's more out there, and I just felt like commenting because I felt like the video didn't do Revan enough justice in his final battle. I mean come on, the dude held on for centuries. There are likely some errors here, and if anyone could find references in novels or from a wiki, sourced corrections would be appreciated.

The fact the sith creed allows you to be a normal average civilian as well as a evil tyrant is what gets me. Also please please please let starkiller deep dive happen

He needs to know about the Exile and Kreia too

Nux: "The Old Republic era is so cool." Me: "Oh my brother if you only knew, I'm obsessed with it." lol

There are two Jedi that walk the path of both light and dark sides and both are in Knights of the Old Republic 2. First is Revan's first and last teacher, Keria. Second is one of Revan's Generals that never became a sith. The Jedi Exile, Meetra Shurik. A woman who went one step further. She cut herself from the force to become a Wound of the Force and possibly one of the beings able to kill the force.

WERE DOING A LORE DIVE ON MY GOAT!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOOOOOO

Im just gonna say it "Keanu reeves" casted as Revan

I'm so glad that you went and watched the Unreal video of Revan vs Malak. That was so well done!!!

he didnt want to leave the order til after the mando war where he had done such horrible things and when he was out he found something that even the jedi couldnt stand against so he becomes a dark lord of the sith so he could defend the galaxy

I don't think that this video did revan justice. Nux should find a more in depth vid. Also he should look into starkiller lore.

I re-downloaded KOTOR a few days ago. Revan is truly the GOAT, and I love how they made his relationship with Bastila canon in that part of the lore. The fact that Satele, his Jedi decendent in TOR, worked with the Sith to fight HIM, and ended up with Jace (the trooper who helped her fight Malgus on Alderaan) brings me joy. Love isn't a hinderance the Jedi think it is, it can be a source of strength. Obsession is what the Jedi should really dislike. I side with the Grey Jedi 💯.

Nux, something else to consider that highlights how badass Revan is. The mask was made for a mandalorian, and originally mandalorians were an alien race. So he's fighting with a mask that wasnt precisely made with human anatomy or eyes in mind.

I DROPPED MY JAW WHEN I SAW YOU UPLOADED THIS VIDEO! 😱

'In the warp a giant stirred; an image flickered through a mind larger than a nebula. The sleep of Gork was troubled. In his dreams he wore a metal body and led his children to victory. The dream lasted a brief instant of long eternity, something about it caused Gork to smile but not to rouse. In the warp Mork too was disturbed. He dreamed of war spreading like a green stain across the galaxy. He saw billions of his children following giant warmachines built in his crude image on a great crusade. He found the dream good. And slowly his vast mind moved towards wakefulness. Gork and Mork stirred. Their dreams reached out and touched the dreams of their people. A billion Orks turned in their sleep; suddenly, inexplicably infected by scenes of slaughter and reaving, plunder and the taking of worlds. When they awoke they looked on their surroundings and found them dull. Gork struggled towards awareness. After centuries of dormancy it was a long process. He sensed other Powers in the warp trying to interfere. He blocked a subtle tendril from Slaanesh, ignored a baleful warning from the Emperor, discounted the triumphant cry of Khorne. He reached out with his millennia-old mind and gathered the strength of his people. Soon he would be awake and active. A body of steel had been prepared for him. A time of blood and iron was approaching. As Mork gathered strength many a Warboss found himself afflicted with thoughts of power. Ancient ambitions were re-kindled. Long vanished thoughts of conquest stirred in the recesses of slow minds. They planned raids on nearby Humans and toyed with thoughts of alliances with old rivals. Not even great soul-searching could explain why this was so. The Ancient Powers knew what was happening, though. The Waa-Ork was coming. Gork and Mork stirred and a wave of fear passed through the warp. Suicide and incidence of violent crime climbed steeply. On Icolbar an Astropath screamed and threw himself from the balcony of a starscraper apartment, yelling that his people were doomed. On the craft-world Hope of Other Days, an Eldar philosopher stopped listening to the atonal music of his water-chimes and began composing his death-haiku, feeling his life had been justified. On distant Earth, a living corpse in a golden throne opened eyes that held fear for the first time in centuries. Gork felt his attention being tugged towards one tiny world on the edge of Orkdom. A strange attraction drew him to it. He leaned down from warpspace and looked upon it. His breath brought storms in the Ash Desert. His gaze caused machines to break down. His lightest tread brought earthquakes. Seeing the disruption he was causing among his people he withdrew. He knew the time was not yet right for his return. He withdrew but he left a message. Mork moved on the face of the warp, brushing aside Daemons and ignoring ancient barriers set by long dead Gods. He moved from world to world and placed in the heart of every Ork the desire to be restless, to move, to follow the siren call of adventure when it came. He sensed other Powers subtly striving to oppose him and laughed as their attempts to restrain his crude, irresistible purpose. The Emperor knew that he must save his people. If Gork and Mork unleashed their hordes then any unprepared worlds would be swept aside by a green tide of death The Emperor bent his thoughts to the task. Across Human space, within the range of the Astronomicon, Imperial Tarot began to foretell disaster. Commanders consulting them found all the signs of impending catastrophe on a cosmic scale. In the Segmentum Obscura, Battlefleets were recalled and prepared for war. On the homeworlds of the Adeptus Astartes, Space Marines reached for their weapons, knowing their time of destiny was near. On the edges of the Eye Of Terror, the Orders of the Adeptus Titanicus roused their ancient war-machines. Having surveyed his Empire and seen it was ready the dying immortal within the Golden Throne prepared himself for the conflict to come. Gork and Mork knew that they were ready. Their people were agitated and prepared for battle The Emperor, their chosen enemy, had deployed his forces. The first skirmishes had been fought, now war was about to be joined. Beyond them they sensed the Chaos Powers watching, waiting to see what advantage the God-brothers' actions might bring them. In the darkest pits of creation twisted creatures prepared to follow the Orks' advance. Gork and Mork did not care. They knew they were strong enough to resist Chaos. The time was right. The time was now. It was time for Gork and Mork to have some fun. In the Warp Gork and Mork waited, well pleased. Across the face of a million worlds their children were on the move, a green tide that would topple empires and re-shape the Universe. The Waa-Ork was on the move.' I will post this on all of your videos until you watch Baldemort's: The Secret History of the Orks.

HELLO nux

The mandalorians were manipulated into attacking the republic by the sith under one pretense: "The Jedi will give you the best battle in ALL of Mandalorian history!" They burnt planets to glass from orbit, with civilians, just to attract the Jedi into combat with them. They never recovered their population, even unto the Clone Wars era. But to this day they look at the Jedi and say"Good Game bro"n"We lost, but that shit was TIGHT".

To clarify: Revan was pretty fucked up after Malak shot him up to the point that Bastila was only keeping him alive. The only way Revan's life could be saved, including the trauma to his brain, was with the council promoting his inevitable amnesia and placing a new identity wiyhin Revan. They also actually healed his other wounds, too, of course. Edit: Revan was captured by The Sith and tortured for 300 YEARS. Vitiate kept him alive for that purpose. Revan also convinced Vitiate to sign a peace treaty with the Republic 20-50 years before The Old Republic MMO takes place.

Waiting for the day Nux realizes the Jedi are the bad guys, The Acolyte just went about it in the worst way possible.

The video also missed that Darth Revan basically made Darth Nihlus when he destroyed a whole planet to wipe out the mando fleet

I am loving watching Nux learn some deep lore of Star Wars "Legends," and personally I would love to see more. From the Rakata, the Pius Deia era, and Valkorium/Vitiate, to Luke's Jedi Order, the Yuuzahn Vong and Abeloth.

It should be noted that in the lore Malak attempted to kill Revan by firing the canons from one of their massive empire ships at the command bridge of the flagship where Revan was fighting off several jedi and Revan still survived and I’m not just talking one ship but dozens as Malak ordered all ships under his command to fire on the flagships bridge

The ability to be too angry to die is well established in Legends. There was Naga Sadows master (whose name I can't recall), who lived for years as a severed head, Darth Sion, whose body was in pieces, but he held it together and stayed alive through anger, Darth Nihilus, the Lord of Hunger, who consumed the life force of others, because he couldn't stay alive otherwise, Emperor Tenebrae/Vitiate/Valkorion, who siphoned the energy of everyone dieing in a galaxy wide war and ruled over the Sith for a thousand years as well as being a wellspring of such badass quotes as: "There is no Death, there is only the Force. And I am its Master" "My life spans millennia. Legions have risen to test me… My ascendance is inevitable." "I hold the patience of stone and the will of stars" “Destiny is merely the conduit for our will.” "Life is as empty without terror as without love. But while chaos can be beautiful... it cannot last." "You demand a simple answer, refusing to look for it within. That is the essence of your failure." "Your striving is insignificant, let your death be the same" "A god has no family"

The sad story behind the mask is, that that mandalorian fighter was a woman who couldnt bear anymore seeing how fellow mandalorians chased civilian cathar into the sea and stepped between victims and opressors. Revan saw this and her getting killed in the vision and swore by her blood he would revenge her and the cathar. Step one to the dark side: done.

For the mask, there is also the version where he took the mask of a mandalorian who was executed... because she protested against the civilian massacre. also there mandalorian survivbor at the end of the war and canderous Ordo followed and teamed up with revan when he lost his memories and restored the mandalorian after quitting revan as mandalorian the restorer.

Actually the mask wasn’t just from a random mandalorian. The force vision showed the jedi how the mandalorians committed genozide and only one mandalorian tried to protect the civilian victims and was killed with them. The mask is from the one just mandalorian, Revan wanted to continue her fight for the innocent.
