9 Video Game Good Guys You Knew Were Villains All Along - Commenter Edition

1. Kreia - Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords

This is a commenter edition so it’s only suitable that we pick an entry that you guys told us we missed out on including last time especially as you described it by saying, “The old Jedi Lady in KOTOR II might as well have been wearing a sign.” The old Jedi lady in this case, of course, being none other than Kreia, the very mysterious veiled woman you meet very early in in Knights of the Old Republic 2 who turns out to be an ex Sith lord.

Which is an interesting piece of information but since nothing about her doesn’t scream ex-Sith lord it’s hard to be too surprised.

KOTOR has already trained us to look for enemies in our friends since the first instalment so when the enrobed old lady starts reading our mind, cryptically prattling on about the force, being cagey about her past, and giving us lectures for being too altruistic, most of us could smell a tricky final face-off with her as Darth Traya coming a mile away.

If you go down the right dialogue path with you she’ll even tell you pretty straight up that she used to be a Sith, so, that added a big piece to the ‘probably going to have to fight her at some point’ puzzle.
