Bankor

Might as well get us started.

Overall, Cole seems fairly disenfranchised by the Republic, at least from what I saw. Am I off base, or if this is the case, what was the root of that?

Thanks for all the patching up throughout the game. I always enjoy seeing characters being able to do the thing they're specialized in.

Cole's always been disenfranchised, though it's more with the military than the Republic in general. It didn't come up as much at Nar Shaddaa, but there was a lot more military stuff on Bankor. Cole's dad was military, and forced Cole to follow in his footsteps. It wasn't what Cole wanted, but he likes his work, so he's torn on whether it's the best thing for him or not.

Will Cole ever leave the military and pursue a private practice... like officially this time.

Do you have an idea of what you are going to play for the Sith game next?

Cole’s end game is still a bit up in the air. There are two directions I’m looking at taking him, but getting the Triage was a vital step in breaking Cole’s dependence on the military.

My Ziost character is nearly finished. Once we know the XP available, I can make some final tweaks and write a history.

Thank you for the scenes! Teffa must have seemed pretty nosy about his background.

Not at all! Cole loves talking about his background. I’m just sorry we never got as far as the Brigadier Admiral forcing his son to join the navy.

That's fine! By then, Teffa was contemplating hugging him, getting him to drink more, or both. She didn't know if that would have done any good, however.

Always happy to see Cole. I'm curious. Do you plan on make Cole unaligned for future games?

It is a possibility, and one of the two directions I might take Cole.

Cole isn't coming back. I had wanted to play Cole once or twice more, not just as an advanced character, but as a developed character. I love Cole; his depth, his stories, his build. He turned out pretty much exactly how I wanted; unfortunately, that vision hasn't meshed well with pbp, and trying to shoehorn him into future games is only going to be unsatisfying.

I've posted Cole's end game for approval, so we'll see what we see.

Just wanted to say thanks for engaging with my character. You reached out to be about both Filo and GB, and it was appreciated.

Not as many scenes with Cole this time around as I had on Nar Shaddaa, but it was fun to see him back again for one more go.

Lyseil and Cole seemed to be a clash of personalities though... in the long-run I think Nai'tiri would've gotten along better with him than Lyseil? I think Lyseil was mostly concerned about Cole but didn't know how to approach the topic at all, and a part of her kinda was a little bit scared of him too?

Cole was definitely more closed-off this game. As his character arcs towards Emotional Weakness: Cold, he’s been shutting down more than he did at Nar Shaddaa. Lyseil’s energy exhausted him, and he never felt like he knew what to say to her; they seemed to be on the same page about things in general though.
