The age of the exile (spoilers)

Post by Lord Revan »

I've thinking and this what we do of history of The Exile (aka KOTOR2 PC) (I'll refer to the said character as he, since currect character is male)

He was a Jedi General in the invasion of Dxun at the start of the Mandalorian war (I think this would make him at least 18 at that time).
KOTOR happens 2,5 years into the Sith War (aka the Jedi Civil War).
KOTOR2 Happens 5 years after KOTOR

so Age of Exile during KOTOR2 is x+2,5+5 (where x is time from the start of Mandalorian war to the start of the Sith War)

could anybody help me and tell me what x is (as what is missing value) and what is final age (if assume he was 20 at the start of the Mandalorian War).
I may be an idiot, but I'm a tolerated idiot

the end of the Mandalorian War and the start of the Sith War, as far as I can tell, didn't have much gap. under a year, but we can call it 1 year. Revan and Malak immediately set out for the Star Forge on the conclusion of the Mandalorian War.

probably, X=1

that mean that Whole Mandalorian war would last less then year (remember that the lower limit for age comes from the fact that he was an General at start of Mandalorian war.)

I think there was a 5-10 year gap between the Mandalorian War and the Jedi Civil War. That's based a comment from one of the games that's only half-remembered. I'm planning to replay the games so I'll check up on that. According to the KOTOR website, Saul Karath was pivotal figure in the defeat of the Mandalorians five years previous.

Edit: I just remembered that in KOTOR II, it's mentioned repeatedly that the exile and Bao-Dur fought in the Wars a decade before, though that's more of a general statement.

This I used 5 years from the start of the Mandalorian War, 2,5 years for the Jedi civil war and 5 years To KOTOR2 (12,5 years in Total) making the Exile between 30- 43 years in age during KOTOR2 (the way he looked it's unlikely he's any older then that.)

FWIW, it was stated frequently in the game that the 'battle' of Malachor V took place ten years before KotOR II.

so that would make 5+2,5+x=10
2,5+x=5
x=2,5 (assuming that battle of Dxun and Battle of Malachor V happen in the same year)
so unless somebody finds out how long the Mandalorian war was we got nothing but a lower limit.
