Bwa'lass, a Selkath male, resided in Ahto City amidst the Jedi Civil War. In his role as an Arbiter, he was selected by the Ahto High Court to preside over different legal proceedings.
Following Revan's assault on the Sith Embassy during the search for the concealed Star Map of Manaan, Bwa'lass was chosen to act as Revan's legal representative. However, perceiving Bwa'lass's inadequacy in conducting the interrogation, Revan opted to act as his own counsel.
Should Revan permit Bwa'lass to conduct the defense without intervention, Bwa'lass, in a desperate move after his other tactics prove fruitless, will resort to an insanity plea. This will result in the player's conviction and subsequent execution.
If the player uncovers the datapad outlining the Sith's scheme to taint the youth of Manaan and disseminate the dark side of the Force among Selkath susceptible to the Force, presenting it to Bwa'lass is possible. He possesses the necessary competence to grasp the significance of this evidence. Despite this, Bwa'lass does not go with Revan to the trial; it then seems the player is acting as their own lawyer.
