Depending on your choices, Revan saved the republic from the Jawless Malak, then hyper-spaced into the nether regions of the Galaxy, Then the exile either followed him/her (depending on your gender choices) or took over the seat of the dark Lord of the sith. so what what happens now? the crew of the Ebon Hawk where surely not left an malachor to face the death of the planet. Bastila , Carth and the gang are on Citadel station if memory serves. we have to remember that the story of KOTOR must surely follow the formula created by George Lukas in that all loose ends must be tied together at the end of the 3rd act even if there are 6 episodes.
So how would you ties the two stories together whilst creating a fantastic story in of itself???
Oh and by the way - - it would not annoy if they did make 6 KOTOR's

ARGH! Bad editing caused part of the second half to end up in the first. Here is a better posting
PART I: The starting point depends on how much time has passed between k2 and k3. I would prefer less than 2 years.
The opening allows you to assign the face/gender of revan, exile, and your new character.
Starting as a new character who awakens at a republic barrracks that is on a world near the outer rim would be cool. The soldier does not have memory loss (I think we've had enough of that over k1 and k2) and must pick up some weapons from his footlocker and fight his way out of the base.
The attackers are a mix of sith soldiers and other creatures...creatures we haven't seen to this point. The character fights his way to a communications bunker and is told that the planet must be abandoned...the attacking sith are just a skirmish line...the real invasion is about to start.
The player then looks up to the sky and sees a massive fleet of sith ships moving into position. Fighting this is impossible. He is directed towards a small ship and escapes with one other soldier...the opposite sex of the pc.
The escape ship encounters some resistance, and the player takes the gun turrets. While shooting at the bad guys, the sith attackers manage to damage the hyperdrive and communications; so the ship, after repulsing attackers, must land on a nearby outer rim world.
Here the story begins to unfold. After finding a place to land. The soldiers must explore and battle natives and beasts to get needed equipment to fix the hyperdrive and communications. While working through this and many side quests, the 2 characters encounter an old Jedi (perhaps Bindo) and learn of the story of Revan, Bastilla, and some more jedi/sith history. This will serve to fill in the gaps of the time between k1 and k2 as well as k2 and k3.
Once this planet has been finished, the players, with new jedi friend in tow, will be able to repair the ship and the communications. Once this is done, they will learn that the republic is being invaded...on many fronts. On the newscast, none other than Admiral Carth O'Nasi is commenting about the latest developments. You also receive a strange, coded message that seems broken up and non-sensical.
The old jedi will begin to speculate about the possibility of the true sith being behind the attack...and, notice that the pc is a force sensitive. the jedi will talk about meeting up with othr jedi, finding revan and exile, etc.
He eventually offers to train you for jedi padawan status, on the grounds that the jedi are going to need all the help they can get. You accept, on the condition that first you must head to wherever Carth is to get more information about the location of revan and the new jedi council. The old jedi wants to meet up with them both to help your training and eventually to battle the true sith.
Carth's location is the next planet stop. You have side missions here and then get to talk to carth. Carth fills in more details about the missing time, where he believe revan to be (based on intelligence reports), etc.
Further, he asks if you received any strange transmissions while on the opening planet. You say that you did. He then reveals that he received a similar broadcast...that appears to join in with your fragment to form a piece of a map...a map to where revan is located, perhaps?
He then reveals that the "jedi council" is scattered on 4 different worlds, and that the fifth world is a mandalorian encampment with canderous ordo as mandalore.
Carth speculates that each world/jedi received a communique that has another "map" piece on it, and speculates further that it's revan telling everyone where to meet him. Seeing as how he has a war to run, carth instructs your crew to go to each of the planets, look for the main character there, and get the pieces of the mysterious message. Once you have this, you are to report the location to him, and he will meet you there.
Planet 1) Bastilla
Planet 2) Mira
Planet 3) Canderous
Planet 4) Atton
Planet 5) Visas
You can do these in any order...except perhaps Bastilla must be first. Throughout you will be taught the force and jedi techniques from the above 4 jedi as well as jolee....with opportunities to go dark side or light side along the way. The worlds are full of surprises, as well as cahracters from the first two kotor.
After going through all the worlds, you have all of the above in your group. You also have a map to a planet not listed on republic charts, beyond the outer rim. You inform carth where you're going, and the ebon hawk blasts off to take you there.
Second Half of KOTOR III
PART II:
The ebon hawk flies to a strange planet that looks more like an asteroid. It is a weird, barren surface filled with sith soldiers, the creatures from the opening attack, etc. You must fight through them to get to the temple/base. The base/temple is filled with runes and other strange symbols.
The PC, BAstilla, and another character of player's choice make the attack. Bastilla is required to come along, she reasons that if revan is here, she wants to be the first to help him...and to see him.
The group of three encounters a base that is heavily armed...they fight their way through to discover the exile held prisoner by a powerful sith of some sort. This sith boss will delight at having fooled the jedi masters, the exile, and bastilla into thinking revan was here. He will then claim to have killed revan.
Bastilla will grow angry and deny it, saying she feels revan is still alive. THe sith boss will laugh and use his powerful mastery of the force to begin defeating the good guys.
As the battle takes a turn for the worse, an explosion is heard off in the distance. It's a jedi in full robe and mask, accompanied by hk-47. After laying waste to the minions who have been attacking pc, bastilla, etc., the character takes off his mask and reveals himself to be revan!
The sith boss flees deeper into the temple.
The next scene is one in which Revan and Bastilla reunite. Yes, they kiss and exchange the requisite "I missed you" stuff. They then attempt to get their minds together, and revan fills in the details about what's happening.
After getting this backstory, you learn that this is one of two known "true sith" bosses. This one is the weakest. You free exile, and then pursue.
Revan defeats this sith boss, and gets a hologram off his dead body that leads to another sith planet. Your party goes back to the ebon hawk to find carth, some republic soldeirs, as well as ordo's mandalorians waiting outside for the 411.
You fill them in, telling them that this move could give the republic peace for scores of years. After all the catching up, you board the ship for what should be a long journey across unknown space.
It's during this time that Revan and Bastilla fully discuss what they want from one another. There are dialog options that lead to them getting back together for good after this battle, etc. The cutscene ends with them visibly kissing once again and saying the "I love you" bits again.
The character is also free to talk to other characters and catch up further. The exile and jedi from other planets as well as ordo should be included in this. "I missed you" etc.
After a long journey, and some space battles, the crew discovers an orbital base surrounding a planet. To get on the planet, you have to shut down a planet shield that operates on the base.
Once this is done, the ebon hawk, plus republic/mandalorian crews land on the new planet.
THis one is even more strange than the previous. Full of strange creatures, sith soldiers, actual "sith" creatures (the red humanoids that the sith bred with), and other bizarre things.
There are several intense battle scenes. You play as Revan again as you, Exile, BAstilla, and PC attack the true sith boss and attempt to destroy him. As you chase him down, he locks himself inside a vault and passes his knowledge on to an apprentice. Here, many secrets are revealed, including the beginning of the mandalorian wars, the power behind the sith on korriban (as hinted by ajunta pall) etc. The apprecentice scurries off with holograms, and instructions to carry on the "great work" of creating a true sith empire some day.
This last sith boss then opens the vault, and allows revan, bastilla and exile to enter.
There is some dialogue that leads to a battle. This battle features the sith lord drawing upon the spirits of the dead sith to attack the jedi....much like malak drawing upon the force powers of the maimed jedi in k1.
Eventually the spirits paralyze the exile and bastilla. The sith lord taunts revan, threatens to kill bastilla, etc. The two battle it out and eventually Revan kills him.
This leads to extended celebration scenes of republic troops celebrating, of mandalorians doing the same. Revan and his crew share some dialog...mostly congratulatory. Ordo tells his boys they fought well, etc.
Cut to the sith apprentice escaping the scene, heading towards the dagobah system to rebuild and begin long terms plans for the sith empire to re-establish itself in republic space...to rot the reublic from within.
We cut back to the celebration with one more dialog...with options for exile, carth, etc. Revan wishes them to re-form the jedi council on differing planets...and then tells bastilla they can finally get together. last shot: revan and bastilla kiss as celebratory fireworks go off in background. Que star wars music.

While working through this and many side quests, the 2 characters encounter an old Jedi (perhaps Bindo) and learn of the story of Revan, Bastilla, and some more jedi/sith history.I'd love to see Bindo in KOTOR III. He always reminds me of Book from Firefly. He was my favorite character from both games. But, it could be a problem because if KOTOR you had to make that big choice with Bastilla(we all remember that). If you choose the dark path you had to kill Bindo. So if Reaven was dark, there is no way Bindo could still be alive. But then again, you didn't go up and check his pulse. Bindo's a tough guy

Yeah, i dig Bindo as well. It took me until the third or fourth time through to really appreciate and fully enjoy his character. Hopefully whoever is making kotor 3 will realize this!
