The Jedi Exile (canonical name unknown; also called General by Bao-Dur) is the main character in the PC/Xbox videogame title Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords. The Exile is a skillful practitioner of the Force and possesses a unique strength. This unique strength is an unusually strong connection to the Force the Exile possessed, through his/her ability to easily form Force Bonds between himself/herself and other people or even places.

Unlike Revan, whose battle yells were provided by Rino Romano, the Exile has no voice actor and is completely silent during battles.

[edit] Behind the scenes

Following the tradition of the first Knights of the Old Republic game, the aforementioned light side story is canonical, even though the official position has not been determined yet [1].

LucasArts traditionally considers the light-side ending of its games to be canon, which is supported by the fact that the New Essential Guide to Droids repeatedly describes the Exile as a Heroine.

The alternate dark side story only differs in the fates of the planets the Exile visits (Onderon is usurped by General Vaklu, Dantooine is captured by Azkul and his mercenaries, and Malachor V remains intact), as well as one party member (Hanharr joins the player's party instead of Mira).

The Jedi Exile is fully customizable by the player, and thus can take several different appearances and either gender. The male and female storylines have minor differences, with the most notable one being one of the player's party members (Brianna, the Last Handmaiden, only joins a male Exile's party, and Mical, the Disciple, only joins a female Exile's party). There is a slight discrepancy if the player is female however as the Handmaiden appears on Dantooine out of nowhere after the Exile meets with the Jedi Masters. If the player has been male the Handmaiden is on the Ebon Hawk as part of the crew and her presence is therefore explained. In addition, there is a scene on Nar Shaddaa, where the Exile meets a Twi'lek named Domo, who is hiring dancers for Vogga the Hutt. If the Exile is male, either the Handmaiden or Mira becomes the dancing girl. However, if the Exile is female, she gets dressed into a red bikini and they bring her to Vogga as a dancing girl instead.
