Didn't pick up Handmaiden

Hi. I just realised 2-3 planets after Telos that I could have picked up a Handmaiden as a party member. I don't want to replay those tedious planets again, so is there a cheat for me to get her in my party?

No, there is not, at least officially. Besides, how can you not get Handmaiden (unless you are female, of course)? She comes on your ship automatically when you leave Telos.

Yes, my PC is female. She never came aboard my ship. I am assuming I need to talk to her or something...but after all of them looking the same, I just thought there was no one to pick up (I actually thought the NPC we were to pick up was that Jedi lady, but seeing how the dialog ended so abruptly I didn't get a chance to do so).

She appears onboard your ship automatically when you get ready to leave a certain planet. Depending upon the order in which you visit the planets, she could appear right several planets beyond Telos--or the next one.

Erm, so you mean she could also appear on your ship after finishing another planet besides Telos? Didn't know that...

(and to be honest, I think you're mistaking there)

MILD SPOILERS


I think he's referring to Visas. Though, it was my understand that Visas appears on the Ebon Hawk when your alignment is strong toward either the light or dark, not on any particular planet.

Handmaiden will appear automatically if you are a male PC as you are preparing to leave the Secret Academy on Telos. You cannot miss her. If you're a female you will never acquire Handmaiden; you get Disciple instead a bit later on.
