Looks like I'll have to write a review and Q&A on it if I ever feel like it/have time for it.

Aha! But will he turn to the dark side if I bring his significant other to his volcano planet when he's really stressed out and has been manipulated by a dark lord and then she tries to talk him out of it but he misunderstands her so just as she's about to win him over I come out of hiding and he thinks I'm here to kill him so he chokes her and then attacks me and we have a really epic fight until I get the high ground and chop him up and leave him to burn and then later in he kills me when I just stand there and dissolve?

 

Or is he a different "one", and he has super powers he doesn't know about and can reprogram the Matrix and beat agents and dodge bullets and do cool slo-mo kung fu?

@Zando Bob from his perspective it's the Jedi who are wrong. 

 

After all the Jedi abandon their code to arrest the chancellor without trial.

Well, they were always jerks to him, and treated him like a kid, even though he was insanely powerful, a caring Jedi (see how terrible he felt after he killed the Sand People), and a great general. Practically the hero of the Clone Wars. Not to mention, the Jedi Council though they were so smart and wise, but didn't see the dark lord until he found out, by himself, and told them, and then they just dumped him and went off to kill the dark lord themselves, instead of sensing his frustration and confusion and bringing him along so he wouldn't surprise them and be tricked/guilted into being evil. Not to mention, on the lava planet he still wanted to be good and use his power to kill the dark lord, but the Jedi guy cut him up so he wasn't powerful enough, so basically the Jedi created the Empire.

@Zando Bob, I felt it was more of an implication that the council was scared of his power. If @revsilverspine became a master then he'd likely take over the Jedi council. 

The council was selfish. They didn't want any chance at losing their power. 

 

In a way it was the council's emotions that created the galactic empire. It was even a master that ordered the Clone Army. The council is everything it doesn't want Jedi to be.

Yup. it's also why the Sith were destroyed, because the dark lord wanted to live forever and didn't submit to his fate of being killed by his apprentice, who would then train a second Sith Lord, and so on. So all the boss guys were dumb and were always mean to poor Revsilverspine.

It's usually the apprentice that obsesses with power that chooses to destroy his master. 

Starkiller was an apprentice to become the next Sith Lord after palpatine, and Revsilverspine. 

 

Revsilverspine didnt care for direct rulership. He wanted his family to be with him. A life of suffering such as what was brought upon him is the fault of the council.

Yup. They got too lazy, thus why Dooku left (he was the best at Form 2 fighting, lightsaber vs lightsaber, but they were so cocky in thinking the Sith were dead that they stopped teaching it, so that was the last straw for him) and his padawan Qui-Gon and later Obi-Wan didn't always listen, they listened to the Force. Qui-Gon was the only one who could've trained Revsilverspine properly, but he was killed, because the council didn't believe him that he saw and was attacked by a Sith, and set him out to fight it himself (Hmm.. he uses a red lightsaber and knows the Jedi arts? I doubt he's a Sith. Anyways, they've only stayed hidden for 1000 years, so I doubt they're very powerful, so if you do see him just take yourself and your padawan in the middle of a delicate operation and try and kill him).

@Zando Bob, Obi Wan was the most patient, and intelligent Jedi. 

In many cases at the level or better than Master Yoda. 

He was the only one capable of stopping Darth Maul, as well as his own apprentice.

Yup, all thanks to Qui Gon, who trained him and was a master of the Force as well as his own emotions. Qui Gone, Obi Wan, and Yoda were pretty much the 3 wise Jedi, just Yoda didn't do much and ran away, instead of teaming up with Obi Wan and rescuing Revsilverspine, turning him back to the light side with the help of his kids (he thought they were dead, and he would've abandoned Palpatine to care for them), then training them and eventually confronting Palpatine and killing him, returning the Jedi to the galaxy, but ending the Jed order as we know it and fixing all their stuffy no attachments rules and such.
