KOTORFanactic Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Right, so I'm playing through KOTOR2 for third time straight since I got it, early last month. I'm playing as LS with LS Revan, so I think this only applies if you play it like this, not sure. Just before leaving for Malachor V, we meet Bastila. Well, we see her actually, the Exile doesn't meet her. So my question is, how did Bastila avoid being found? Vrook, Zez-Kai-Ell (don't think that is spelt right) and Kavar all hid on worlds abundant in the force, making them hard to find. Where did Bastila hide. I don't think she hid on Telos all this time, since Atris would have found her, and because it was a dead world, with little life on it, I think she would have been rather easy to find. I think, either she hid somewhere else, then moved to Telos, or she was a bit of a nomad and eventually came to Telos. Maybe she was travelling with Carth all this time. What do you all think? I would just like to here your thoughts.
Darth_Radnor Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 She was probably travelling with Carth and the Republic Fleet like you mentioned.
Drakron Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 There are a lot of places. If she gone to the wookie planet (that only few people knew about) she had a entire planet fill with live that would make her hard to detect.
The Great Phantom Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Force Bonds. She is bonded w/ the Heart of the Force, plus she personally has the whole Republic army at her back. That could have helped. Plus, she probably has spent most of her time in the Outer Rim searching for her beloved Revan... Battle Meditation would also help if attacked by thugs or puny Sith spies... Just an idea, of course Geekified Star Wars Geek Heart of the Force, Arm of the Force "Only a Sith deals in absolutes!" -Obi-wan to Anakin (NOT advocating Grey-Jedidom) "The Force doesn't control people, Kreia controls people."
jaguars4ever Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 *adds further speculation* Following her romantic engagement with Revan, she may have left the Jedi Order.
Bulgaroctonus Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 I'd imagine she can't be found because of her force bond with a LS Male Revan, who we will note, cannot be found either by the Sith Lords. What ever is protecting Bastila or Revan is probably shared between them.....

The Great Phantom Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Well, the order did oddly collapse soon after Revan dissappeared. Naturally, the two would have wanted to spend as much time together as possible. I do think that she would have left the Order around the time Revan quit, maybe a little bit before hand, too. The Order was already collapsing, and we all know that Bastila is no optimist.

Jad'en Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 It was explained sometime during the game that Bastilla left the Jedi Order (LS) so that would explain why Nihilis could not sense her, if she doesnt use her connection to the force, it weakens (Kyle Katarn) Nice guess Phantom =/
The Great Phantom Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 That's true, I almost forgot... However, I personally believe that she did use her powers, but only through her bond w/ Revan. She probably sent out 'pulses' after him, to try and locate him. However, Revan being the shear genius that he is, could easily have hid himself. I like the idea about whatever masking them was shared between the two.

Jad'en Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Only person that has been able to disguise themself on such a scale is Palpatine
The Great Phantom Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Palpatine is "New Age." The older the Jedi get (in the Star Wars timeline), the more powerful they seem to become. Edit: Plus, as Kreia said: "Power has blinded (them) long ago."

DSLuke Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Palpatine is "New Age." The older the Jedi get (in the Star Wars timeline), the more powerful they seem to become. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Who said that crap? Yoda, Anakin, Luke and Sidious look pretty powerful to me. I really hate how much superpowerful SW comics have made some characters. Anakin is supposed to be a child of the Force, so not even the Force users of the old could be as powerful as he. And by the light of the moon He prays for their beauty not doom
The Great Phantom Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 I was referring to abilities. It is a FACT that abilities have been lost through the ages, for many reasons. The ability to strip the Force was not even mentioned in the OT/NT. I was referring to 'forbidden techniques', not inherent power.

The Great Phantom Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Why? If they're untrained in it, then they would leave no signatures. Besides, Vader feels Luke anyway. Besides, once stripped by the Force, it requires a paradox (like the Exile) to reforge a connection.

The Great Phantom Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Then he would already have his connection, meaning Yoda had not stripped it. Have you read Ulic's 'stripping' in TOTJ? He never feels the Force again, so neither would Luke/Leia if Yoda took it away from them.

DSLuke Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 Yoda did that to protect them and not to punis them. And by the light of the moon He prays for their beauty not doom
The Great Phantom Posted March 7, 2005 Posted March 7, 2005 The reasons don't matter. If you're stripped of the Force by a Jedi Master, you're never going to feel it again. End of the line. As that one Jedi Master in TOTJ said, it brings a wall of light around them, and it's as permanent as Death. There's no going back. Ever.

DSLuke Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 But how can one he cut off the force?? The force connects all living things. And by the light of the moon He prays for their beauty not doom
The Great Phantom Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 Not the Force, but their ability to touch it, feel it, and manipulate it. It makes a Jedi a shell, but not as extreme as the Exile. They still have it, they just can't feel it. EVER. AGAIN. AT. ALL.

The Great Phantom Posted March 8, 2005 Posted March 8, 2005 Nope. The Will has its limits. Look at the Exile. But that is a discussion for a different time.
