Description: The Sith Holocron of Darth Revan was constructed by this Dark Lord of the Sith during the Jedi Civil War. Contained within the Capstone was the essence of Revan, who acted as the Holocron's gatekeeper, teaching the user about the content held within the respiratory of knowledge that Darth Revan stored when he constructed it. Three millennia after it's construction, this Sith Holocron was rediscovered by Darth Bane, who after extensive study of it's contents, formed a revolutionary philosophy known as the Rule of Two. Using the teachings given to him by Darth Revan, Bane would later deceive Skere Kaan into using the Thought bomb at the end of the Seventh Battle of Ruusan, culminating in the destruction of Lord Hoth's Army of Light and the Brotherhood of Darkness, paving the way for Darth Bane to found the Order of the Sith Lords.
Darth Revan's Sith Holocron was a four sided pyramid that was a miniature replica of the Temple of Ancients. It was adorned with a few Sith symbols, which made it unique to other Sith Holocrons, who were normally built with several. It happened to be hidden inside the same temple for thousands of years, until it's discovery by Darth Bane, who after extensive study of it's contents, destroyed it after the crystal power source within became too unstable for further use. He would later transcribe all that he had learned into the Telos Holocron.
The Order of Revan, otherwise known as the Revanites, was a secret society that was founded by renegade Sith, Jedi and Mandalorians, who adhered to the teachings of Revan, based on his times both as a Jedi Master and the Dark Lord of the Sith. Although this organization was disbanded following Revan's death in 3638 BBY, varying individuals over the centuries continued to adhere to the philosophy of the Revanites right into the 440s ABY, during the calamitous times of the Gulag Plague, which would later form the era known as the Four Hundred Year Darkness. These Revanites, in an effort to find salvation from the disease, began a pilgrimage to Lehon, where it was known Darth Revan once ruled. Believing that they would find a cure to the Gulag Plague there, with thanks to the unknown powers that Revan was said to possess, they ventured into the Temple of Ancients only to discover the remnants of the Sith Holocron destroyed by Darth Bane centuries ago.
Before succumbing to their disease, the last of the Revanites managed to piece together the fragmented pieces of Darth Revan's Sith Holocron, as they continued their efforts to learn it's hidden knowledge, so as to formulate the cure that would save them. In a twisted sense of fate, and rather ironically, the same reasons for the Holocron's destruction became their undoing, for they did not have the power source necessary to reactivate the device, which was left dormant and surrounded by the bodies of those who had repaired it. Cruelly, they died without knowing that Darth Revan never knew the cure to the Gulag Plague, nor did the knowledge that was stored within his Holocron possess the necessary knowledge to build off of to form one.
Following the Four Hundred Year Darkness came the Era of Chaos, a time where varying factions and organizations rose to fulfill the power vacuum left behind in the past four centuries. [member="Circe Savan"], a Sith Knight who served in the Sith Empire, sought new knowledge and power so as to supplement her goals of achieving the status of Sith Lord. During her studies, she rediscovered the philosophy of the Rule of Two during her research into Sith Alchemy. Adapting it, as Darth Plagueis had done before her, Circe sought her own apprentice and took [member="Alicia Drey"] into an Sith apprenticeship, which would culminate in the two becoming Darths Pandeima and Ayra. The latter would later kill her Master, adhering to tenants set forth by Darth Bane and taking her place as the Sith Master.
Building upon the studies set by her former Master, Darth Ayra made a connection between the Order of the Sith Lords and the long lost planet of Lehon. Using the Black Tie Syndicate, a criminal organization that was becoming synonymous in the rediscovery of long lost artifacts that they would later sell on the black market, Darth Ayra was taken to the Lehon system on board the Red Dress. Accompanied by a team of mercenaries, Darth Ayra ventured deep into the alien world and discovered a ruin of an ancient complex, that she would later discover to be the Temple of Ancients. Entering the ruin, she would discover the dormant remnants of Darth Revan's Sith Holocron and complete the repairs that the Revanites had attempted centuries before hand, through her knowledge and expertise of crystals. Using her own synthetic lightsaber crystal, Darth Ayra installed it into the Sith Holocron, reactivating it and gaining access to the gatekeeper of Darth Revan himself, who recognized her as a Sith Lord and begun to instruct her on the respiratory of knowledge that he had stored inside.
