Unresolved story issues

Unresolved story issues <spoiler>

I just finished beating KOTOR 2 and had some questions regarding the story line

1. Why do they keep saying the handmaiden has her mothers face? Who is she?

2. I take it at the ending the exile follows Revan into the unknown.

3. I was not able to make anycharacters a jedi (not enough influence). Does their future change if you do make them one?

4. Depending on who your love interest is, does that change anything?

Thanks!

SPOILERS

1. She has a different face from her sisters (this is significant in that all the other sisters look identical). They apparently all share a father, but Handmaiden had a different mother. Her mother, in fact, was a jedi. You'll find this out if you take the steps and gain the influence to train Handmaiden as a jedi.

2. Yes. The exile goes off in search of Revan in the ending.

3. I don't believe their future actually changes. Bao-Dur, Mira, Handmaiden, and Atton can all be converted to Jedi. You might check some other threads on this board or some walkthroughs for directions as to how. If you play the game again, this is something worth doing.

4. No, sadly, it doesn't really make much difference at all.

5. It's hard to say. If you're DS (or take that path) you can kill her, obviously. Otherwise, you can chose to try and redeem her. It's unclear what her fate is after Telos if you do save her. The game doesn't seem to resolve that.

So, it's possible that the sisters could be children of Atris and the exile. Thereby if you romance the handmaiden it is incest?

um..no. I'm fairly certain that no physical intimacy ever happened between the exile and Atris. More importantly, that couldn't logically follow. The Handmaiden's (birth name: Brianna) mother was an unnamed jedi who was killed in the Mandalorian Wars. The mother was not Atris. More importantly, Handmaiden's father is the father of all the handmaidens present in the Academy of Telos. The girl's father was not a jedi. He was instead an Echani fighter who fell in love with the Jedi Knight.

Handmaiden's mother is Master Kae, who also trained Revan, her father was Yusani of Echani. If you gain enough influence with Kriea she will tell you this.

If you choose to play the DS...then the part with the exile going of to find Revan will not happen. He will stay on Malachor instead of blowing it up.


Atris, I am unsure of. I know she lives, if you did not kill her. She repents if you save her from the darkside. dont know what happens if you try to convince her that the DS is the way to go though. :)

So, her mother is the same one that trained Revan. I thought Kreia did that. Or is Kreia the handmaidens mother?

I believe that revan had many teachers, yet some believe that it was Kreia who taught him what lead him to the dark side.
