Bastila Shan was a Human female and Jedi who became one of the key figures involved in the Jedi Civil War and its immediate aftermath. Bastila was a survivor of the Jedi strike team sent to neutralize Darth Revan, forming a Force bond with him when she saved his life. The Jedi Council then reprogrammed Revan's damaged mind and put him under Bastila's care, hoping he could subconsciously lead them to the Star Forge.
