Hahahaha!
@@geetslys I couldn't resist
Thanks for uploading this video dude you're awesome always giving us Star Wars content we don't deserve. I guess it's one of the first times that Jedi showed actual compassion to someone on The Dark Side but Aton Reed was a SAVAGE telling Kreia off like that. I can't wait until the Kenobi series in 2 months that's when I graduate from college because I'm double majoring in Sociology and Anthropology. This has nothing to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college student. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't.
I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict.
Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers.
Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years
ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of but not macro or micro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word.
Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant.

I love that he sassed Kreia. She's a great character, but sometimes you just want you be like, can you not for five minutes? Not every moment is a moment to be mysterious and deep calm down
This
And then she counteracts your bullgunk apathy on this with more of her own bullgunk!
@Michael Andrei Palon shed drive me nuts, because you're totally right, any attempt to get her to just grab a space Mai tai and chill would just be a prompt for more confusing parables about the force
Exactly and she's kinda self righteous or annoyingly a know it all.
she's an amazing character....but there is no chill in that Woman! Lmao
_"I'm as Atton as Atton will ever be!"_
Gets me every time. 😂
It seems like this character was loosely based on the apostle Paul. Attacks Christians, kills them, imprisons them, tortures them, tries to get them to renounce their version of Judaism, etc.; then is literally shown the light, becomes a Christian himself, is avoided by the other Christians because most of them think he still wants to kill them, is eventually excepted, but still spends the rest of his life in trouble with the law and the powers that were.
I was thinking the same! Favorite Saint!
Great minds think alike ahah
Mind blown. That analogy never ever even crossed my mind. Thank you for your perspective. 👏👏👏
Yep yep. Scrolled thru to see if anyone else mentioned this. I remember the first time playing and finding out his past then you help him open to the force and it felt just like Paul’s story
I always saw him being based on Han Solo. He talks just like early original trilogy Han which is a good thing by the way. "Han shot first" style Han Solo is an audience favorite
Captured criminal: U can't torture me, it's against the jedi way

The Jedi exile was actually healed in a pre-Bacta mixture called Kolto.
Good point
Nice to know that a founding member of the re-forged Jedi order was a dark side aligned murderous torturer, and an adult. The Jedi council of the Prequel era probably would've covered up his existence.
They probably did
I mean they denied the dark until Kenobi killed Maul, and refused to train a 9yo cuz he loved his mother
Theyd never let someone like Atton be upheld as an example of redemption and potential for an adult, raised in the world, to be part of the order

Cold-blooded killer: Exists
The Jedi Order: Welcome! Would you consider doing false flag war crimes?
I really like that he is not this "I've some things, man" type of person, like Carth. He is a literal torturer and a murderer. He gunned down the weak just to either draw out or to weaken the much stronger Masters. He feels more unique. Definitely one of my favorite companions, and in my humble. Out of the two Companions who pilot our ship, I definitely prefer Atton. :D
Ironically, I trust Atton way more than I do Carth
What makes Atton more trustworthy is that he doesn't express distrust toward you, and he also puts his trust in you when revealing his past. This is something Carth never affords you, and why him being a romance option is a disgusting joke. Atton can be fallen in love with because he is inherently likeable, and doesn't blame you for his own failings, he recognises them, and seeks to atone for them. It's easy to trust a man when you understand his purpose.
I think Atton is meant to be the anti-thesis to Carth.
Atton Rand’s story echos that of Paul the Apostle.
Paul, in a similar vain to Atton, had started out as a Jewish Pharisee persecuting Christians only to experience an epiphany - a vision of Jesus - that changed his entire outlook on life. Afterwards, he became Christianity’s most prolific supporter, spreading the word to all the churches and beyond.
Paul might have been the most based man alive during his time.
He was a remarkable stylist. 1 Corinthians 15 in NKJ is stunning.
So basically, metra surik defeated 3 of the most powerfull, infamous sith lords ever. Gotta give credit where credit is due. Great vid btw!
No. They were weak in the lineage of Sith and Sith from Vitius empire were FAR more powerful

Kyp Durron: Whoa
12:54: I do like the Redemption Equals Death trope too, but mostly for characters who've done so much wrong that them living is still wrong for me.
But making people die for redemption would render redemption useless. Redemption is the breaking point of a buildup of questioning one's actions and beliefs, showing glimpses of a new self in words and actions through time, and acceptance of one's regrets and past. Many die in the name of redemption, which is fine because maybe redemption in media tends to happen when the character has a breaking point during a life-or-death situation (themselves or of someone else), but this doesn't always have to be the case. Real life redemption can happen in many ways, and it doesn't have to end in the person dying after one good act.
I believe most people are redeemable. People only think redemption is tied to death because of weird customs of martyrdom, and the only reason we think people should die is because we're trained to hate people who have committed crime (and most prisoners in the most populated prison systems aren't even murderers nor violent). I really like the rehab system Finland has which pretty much deconstructs the virulent unjustifiable draconian prison (torture) culture of places like America. They've managed to even have murderers become productive members of society, and the crime recurrance (recidivism) in Finland is extremely low.
Redemption doesn't have to be tied to death, even if it's very understandable to be angry at a person who killed your family member, for example. A culmination of these instinctually-common draconian values ultimately leads to unjustifiable prison systems where we even hate prisoners we don't know personally (and as mentioned before, most not even being violent criminals).
@@Agent_A_Graham have u seen shawshank redemption?
Like Moash/Vyre. But for me even his death wouldn't be redemptive. It'd just be the death of an irredeemable shithead
@@minkeyandzomble6206 Who's Moash/Vyre again? (Also, where's your comment all of a sudden?)
What I love about Atton was that at first he seemed like your typical Star Wars scoundrel character, but then your learn he was much more than that.
0:01 welp. I like how they called out a movie quote
More on The Lost Jedi, please.
4:51 Frieza: "Oh my God. You can grind meat on those abs."
So basically a villain lived long enough they turned into a hero, and probably quite a good or perhaps even BETTER hero then villain too. But then again, thats the origin trope of most villains turned hero
Last time I was this early, Legends was the only continuity
Gotta love sassy and witty side characters with a surprisingly dark hidden side that will make you think twice all of a sudden.
Same goes for really, really nice, charitable, and expressive characters who have a darker side of actually hurting if not killing people who threatened their friends, loved ones, and other preferred and innocent peoples even in the slightest offense with cold, calculating, and suddenly emotionless brutality.
Yep, it’s crazy to think that all Jedi have that side to them. But they have to hold it in!
...I wasn't actually referring to Jedi here, but I guess this interpretation works.

Just your friendly neighbourhood serial killers
Aton Rand: The Biggest 180 Degree Turn For A Great Jedi.
I would greatly appreciate the rest of the companions Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2
This guy was basically a Sith style Han Solo.
Personally my favorite Redemption story Star Wars
My favorite Psychopathic Jedi
Anakin was 9 when he said the Angel line, so y'all should cut him some slack.
Plus, Jake Lloyd's personal life got screwed because of it. Sadly reminds me of Kelly Marie Tran's trolls and harassers.
@@michaelandreipalon359 her character was and is awful, but she didn't deserved to be harassed
Hard to believe without this guy yoda wouldn’t exist.
Bet he still uses his torture methods to get important information from criminals he hunts down.
Old habits die hard.
He uses his torture methods in the bed chambers with mama meetra, gotta keep the spirit pure and all that
Whether or not you're a cold-blooded killer depends greatly on your point of view.
When you say that in context to this, it actually makes me think about that Lego adaptation of Episode 3 done in the Droid Tales story:
Obi-Wan: Anakin, you destroyed the Republic!
Anakin: I say it was the Jedi that were destroying the Republic and the Chancellor and I saved it.
Obi-Wan: Nuun.
Anakin: Yeahun.
Obi-Wan: Nuun.
Anakin: What I said is true, from a certain point of view.
Obi-Wan: Anakin, that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
What a good series, that.
May the VA for Anakin there rest in peace though (he's also the VA for Cole from the LEGO Ninjago series).
@@michaelandreipalon359 Yes that was sad to hear.
On a happier note. I love you're new pfp. That was my favorite moment from the episode.
Why must some people die young and before their olden days?
Mine's actually either the Willow and Amity moment (can't believe Willow actually does work out... she looked sad afterwards though, the poor soul) or the phone explanation on the docks (Poor Communication Kills trope successfully averted, great job), but both seemed a bit sad to be worth a PFP... poor Raeda though.
Will be planning to use a Star Wars: Republic comic book cover so to celebrate the month of May when it comes out... if only I could get Republic #67's cover art with high resolution and no fonts. Anakin looked awesome and ragged there.
Say, Zexal, did you also enjoy the Rogue One and lightsaber play moments in Amphibia?
No mention on how much he loved Pazaak? or how that technique of concealing his thoughts was based around playing it
Another really cool topic to go into since you're on jedi history would the history of the Barsen'thor title.
Bao Dur was one of my favourite characters, soft spoken and a complete badass with tech.
Just when I wanted a Video about Atton I got it, this was perfectly timed.
What is better? To be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?
Also, is this KOTR?
Second one the sith lords
Yeah KOTOR 2 The Sith Lords. If you're going to play it, maybe forget you saw this video since it describes the entirety of what happens in the game
I was playing KOTOR2 literally last night and thought "Geetsley should do a video on Atton" cause I had little knowledge of his story
In Buddhism, Angulimala is a ruthless serial killer who collects the fingers of his victims on a necklace as trophies. He murders entire villages and is hunted by kings. At his darkest moment when he goes to kill his own mother, Buddha intervenes and uses his supernatural wisdom to show Angulimala the error of his ways. After a mind boggling waking nightmare, Angulimala declares he wants to be a monk to redeem himself no matter how many lifetimes it takes. He becomes one of Buddha’s pupils and closest companions
Did he send his victim's families fruit baskets with their loved ones' fingers in them as recompense?
Yyeeeeees! Atton Rand rooocks!!!
Awesome video!
Yes please, I'd love more stories in the rest of the crew too!
Surik: Maybe the Jedi Order was the friends we met along the way.
I like to imagine The Exile’s former party now left behind just sort of standing around with fidgeting with their lightsabers wondering “Ok, now what?”
Literally lmao
At first I thought he was just KOTORS 2 version of Carth and I was gonna hate him always moping and pouting about not trusting anyone, but it was the contrary I actually enjoyed having him around and learning more about him because he was actually willing to talk
“UhM AcTuALlY iT’s a KolTo tAnK!”
So if Atton was a Sith Lord, I guess most Jedi will show no hesitation to cut him down, right? But since he is a Sith's associate, they forgiven him easily. Why is this? Why do Jedi showed no mercy to the Sith but are willing to show compassion to those who willingly and voluntarily associated themselves with the Sith?
Also, none of these problems will ever happened if the Jedi Order simply do not attached itself to the Republic but merely maintaining good relations with it while secretly fighting against slavery on their own. By playing politics on Coruscant, the Jedi Order became corrupted in the end.
He thought he was making the scary boogey men who didn't help them when they needed it die and feel what he felt literally afraid of the force
Atton was Force-Sensitive and it showed in his talents and skills, but he was not corrupted by the Darkside like so many Sith - and the Dark-Jedi he broke - because he was not aware of its pull on him, even as he acted in kind with those who were. He did what he did for reasons, and continued for those reasons. He could be saved because he was still able to want to be saved.
I'm not sure, but perhaps the Jedi who disturbed his walk did so because they sensed the Darkside had not swallowed him - that he was merely a shallow and wounded soul. Surik could more easily forgive and show mercy - he had turned away from the Darkside already.
For the record, it is possible to have compassion yet withhold mercy. A deranged Sith may be a pitiful slave of the ever corrupting Darkside, you can wish that it were not so for their sake and the sake of their victims, and you can strike them down with extreme predudice because of what they will do in service to the Darkside.
... or perhaps that is itself mercy... interesting to think about.
They probably think Sith “underlings” aren’t beyond saving...or not as far gone
And, also to be a sith lord, you are committing yourself to conquering the dark side and to bend it and all life to your will.
Bit different than a hired gun who was lost in his desire for vengeance and force sensitivity.
But they do. There are quite a few examples of Jedi showing compassion and forgiveness to the Sith, bringing them into the Order and showing them their ways of Peace and healing.
Can you please do a clone alignment chart?
Something tells me he would’ve showed up in Kotor three. Along with reinforcements there was a lot of stuff planned for the third game.
So basically the real jedi were the friends we made along the way
🤔 . . . Yes. I’d also like to hear the history from the end of _Knights of the Old Republic 2_ to the beginning of _Old Republic, The_ , i.e. the cinematic intro to that MMORPG (I know there was about 50 years between that intro & the beginning of the players’ journey; only relevant information to how the galaxy rebuilt itself within that time gap & such)…
THANK YOU for making this video he is my own favorite character in the entire KOTOR universe? He’s like Han Solo turned Jedi. One of the greatest written characters in the franchise.
5:31 Yet couldn't use it for some reason when Kreia read his mind.
ingame she shreds his defences after she becomes suspicious of his fear of jedi. Kreia also had the capability of seeing shatterpoints which meant it was only a matter of time until she did.
Kreia did mentioned that his mind was difficult to read, it was later using his fear of the Jedi that Kreia manage to use this to read his mind
Please do Meetra Surik's other companions.
Redemption arc of the year
"Hope some poor kid doesn't start using it."
Oh, that was golden!
0:10 Wow, that lady is hot.
Atton's entire character arc to me not only reads as a shining example of redemption, but also a blueprint for what Lucasfilm could have done with characters such as Ben Solo in the Sequel Trilogy. Or, they could have done the exact opposite and have Ben fall further and further until he became worse than Atton was back when he was a Jedi killer and torturer. I like a good redemption story, but I love me a well written, pure evil, sociopathic villain too.
Atton Rand : Tell me I'm not going to jail again.
I think meetra is the epitome of a Jedi
Kotor2 encapsulated the star wars galaxy in the best way to date
Pure pazaak.
Atton "pour pazaak"
12:20 my man really said “maybe the lost Jedi were the friends we made along the way.”
If you beat the game three times, when you first meet Atton of Peragus, he'll say "I wasn't meant to be in this game but they put me in last second". This is the kind of character that's put in last second, and he's a masterwork of storytelling.
Were there any high council members or jedi masters alive after the events of kotor 2? Because if the fate of the jedi was to be determined by Meetra Surik, surely she would've been the grand master of the order at that time. I've always wondered what the lost jedi did to restore the order between the events of kotor 2 and swtor. They would've eventually been masters and had apprentices. Hmmm... Master Atton Rand... LOL.
If you mean from the high council that exiled the exile, only atris was alive because Vash died on Korriban and Kreia killed Kavar, Vrook and Zez-kai ell. All of the other dantooine council members died on Katarr
@@sukitron5415 I mean apart from the council members that were present during Surik's exile. I'm guessing there were none that were off world. That just leaves Surik, her lost jedi companions, Bastila and the redeemed Revan, minus Atris of course. I would love to see how the jedi order rebuild from that era of the purge. The lack of mention of Surik and her companions who helped rebuilt the order is kinda strange to be honest. I really expected swtor to give a some massive nods to the events of kotor2, it was my favourite game.
@@VerdantJedi The legends book "Revan" showed told nothing about the rebuilding of the order. BUT it did tell what happened to Revan, Surik, and Bastila after kotor ll. Revan and Surik traveled to the unknown regions to try to fight the sith empire before they returned (failed as you should know). And Bastila lived out the rest of her life on couruscant with her son having had force sensitive kids.
@@minir3x729 The Revan novel destroyed what KOTOR 1 and 2 had been building up to. The True sith were not as they should have been
@@VerdantJedi there were some scattered Jedi but they were mostly padawans, for example Kaevee who you meet in the Enclave in TSLRCM. I think the Exile gathers these padawans and maybe some scattered knights and masters
Yes do the rest of them. Mical, Brianna, Bao-Dur, and Mira.
And to think that this was a character that was added at the last minute.
had no idea he could become a jedi in my first playthrough , i did know about him fighting jedi though
He’s as Atton as Atton will ever be!
That intro killed me, like hiding "I dont like sand" in random media XD
WOW! These guys sound like a Companion Party from DragonAge!
In some ways, they are literally precursors to just that.
Obsidian made kotor 2, but kotor 1 was made by bioware and along with original Baldurs Gate games, was BioWare’s foundational games, and where they first drummed up the entire “trope” as it is now.
Atton to me was like the game's comedian.
3:07 Meetra looks just like Ana De Armas. Lol
Atton rand gotta be one of the best side characters ever in any game
Some times those who have the brightest souls, know nothing but darkness, and only need to be shown the light!
God I forgot how good the plot of that game was….
oh my god how did this whole video go without you mentioning what game this is
@Wookie hunter 69 THANK YOU!! I thought I had played this before, but did not recognize about 30% of the scenes... Was the Xbox version that different from PC??
@@earlware4322 Haven't watched the full video yet, but the video might showcase cutscenes from the Restored Content mod on PC.
@@Nufhtetsit does (binging them, mention it in the newer by now kotor 2 story vid). Otherwise can say for sure the two retail versions are identical
Still waiting on Disney making a game/movie as good as KOTOR2. KOTOR2 was such a paragon of Star Wars lore and story.
One of my favorite Kotor characters next to Jolee, Canderous, and HK-47.
Is Attons duel with Sion not in the original game? Is it just in the restored content mod?
Yes unfortunately
Great story, I thoroughly enjoyed it
Kinda like a Star Wars version of St. Paul
Awesome vid brah! Yes, plz more vids on the other companions
Take that Vader, this is the best redemption arc.
This seems to be based off the murderer monk story from Buddhism, he would kill and remove a finger from his victim because it would give him a fleeting sense of fulfillment. One day he happens upon a monk who doesn't fear him he says "if you think killing me will fulfill you then go ahead its my job to help people to fulfillment but I will say that it will not and you will never be fulfilled" the murderer ponders this and realizes the monk is right they talk some more and he becomes a monk, the victims family's attack him everyday but luckily for them he keeps on the path to true fulfillment.
I really wish there was a mod where you and Atton gang up on Kreia and force crush her. Would be so satisfying
I know a lot of people are going to be annoyed by this, so first of all I really like the channel and enjoy the videos.
Second it's the ebon hawk not the eeeebon hawk, also please stop saying nucular, it's nuclear.
I demand comments of the day
Other lost Jedi please! Mira next.
Watching/listening to this has made me wanna restart KOTOR 2. Aton was one of my favorite characters. Just like Carth was in KOTOR :P
Funny this came up. I was just picturing me and "Atton's" wedding.
Hell Yea! Kotor content is always approved by me baby!
Easily one of the best Star Wars games ever (after installing the Restored Content Mod). I think my favorite part of the game is arguing with Atris or the battle with Darth Nihilus' invasion force.
My favorite character from that game! He deserves his own kotor of you asks me!
That start lmao
It would be nice to hear about that other lost Jedi. So please tell us about them.
Def gives me saul and paul vibes
