New Companions

awe man and jaxo too

as for the threads idea that bioware is going to bring back characters we have met before. I think that is a awesome decision and if it gets done it is going to make the stories feel more connected to the player. its a step in the right direction Bioware Austin. the next would be talking Patrick Weekes into writing some characters for swtor, no offense to hall hood and his team, your doing great but that man could make me fall in love with a rock if he was writing for it

a lot of long time bioware fans know very well the connections you can create with a npc through being able to interact with them, even if they are not companions, the more we see of characters we know in game the more we will create feelings of either love or hate towards them. but that is what makes the interactions with them mean something. I mean who doesn't have a opinion on captain Anderson in mass effect even though he wasn't a companion. [I was going to say Joker but he's crew like Dr Chakwas and Kelly Chambers Anderson was more in the background just poping in here and there] but he was there to interact with and a part of our journey too. hopefully darth marr / supreme chancellor, satele and jace survive long enough that players start to become connected to the characters.

so in short STOP KILLING OFF CHARACTERS!!! ... I'm looking in your direction Hall

I don't think he was in Fatal Alliance? He seemed to survive the battle of Corellia which is after Fatal Alliance.

Edit: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Darth_Chratis ?

He was in Annihilation, and he definitely did die. He is dead, dead. Not video game dead, LS/DS dead or not-dead–he's definitely dead.

I think you mean Darth Gravus. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Darth_Gravus

Guess those Sith are not that good or interesting if people cannot keep them apart from each other, and BioWare seems to like to kill them off anyway, so don't hope for a darth as a companion, they are pretty much just cannon fodder!

Oh, so I do. Charnus, right. Got you now.

Yeah Darths started dropping like flies. I don't consider Darth Charnus to be a possible companion, but he was directly under a Dark Council member, and he's still alive, so he could be back in the future.

Don't want to go back through the entire thread, but who brought Darth Charnus up first? Would Darth Charnus not automatically hate everyone who is Revanite? And I doubt he would be a companion for a republic character, so who could have him as a companion, think there are not many left. So, I am with you, don't think he would be a good companion for anyone.

I had him on my list of not yet dead characters, and apparently he's easily confused with some dead guys.

He's pretty cruel, so I don't think he's a Revanite.

for the SW I personally would've liked to have Lord Rathari as a companion. granted im sure many ppl probly killed him but we warriors have encountered a few ppl who refuse to die... but for those who let him live like me I felt like he should've showed a more useful role. I mean he said he would be there for the last fight (which he was) but he wouldn't even fight with u (which sucks) plus it gives us Warriors another force companion and possible apprentice since the inquisitor gets two. and besides rathari is interesting as a character I think. he's a young naïve sith lord that can be molded into whatever we want. but besides him I too want Lord Cytharat. (ironic they are both lords) another character I thought very well developed and also a force companion. basically as a warrior I don't particularly mind who we get as long as its a force user.

1. Lord Rathari
2. Lord Cytharat
3. Thana Vesh
those be my pics. oh and this is assuming each class gets there own. if not obviously rathari would be exempt from this list. but I think individual comps are better than shared ones.
