lukeiamyourdad Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 According to the AIM Icons on the official KotOR, the masked guy appearing here:http://www.lucasarts.com/games/swkotor_sithlords/images/screenshots/PCScreens/14.jpg (the one standing to the left of the PC), is a mandalorian. We never see his face. What if...he's Canderous? A Mandalore, a mask...
Emperor Devon Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 No, he isn't canderous. When they labeled that guy "Mandalore" They were reffering to the leader of the mandalorians, who is naturally called mandalore. He always wears a mask. He looks like a good party member, though. I wonder what did happen to Canderous...

Mandalore is the leader of the Mandalorians, yes. However, you've got to wonder how he -does- join your party...the leader of the mandalorians must be extremely strong...
lukeiamyourdad Posted October 30, 2004 Author Posted October 30, 2004 But it cannot possibly Mandalore...didn't Canderous or somebody said that Revan killed Mandalore?
DarthBuzzard Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 He did, but there must always be a leader of the Mandalorians, so a new mandalorian is made mandalore. So your theory could be right...Canderous is the new Mandalore perhaps?
lukeiamyourdad Posted October 30, 2004 Author Posted October 30, 2004 But then, if the Mandalore we see is in fact leader of the Mandalorians, what the hell is he doing with you instead of his men?
DarthBuzzard Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 Maybe an exile who retains the title to strike fear and awe into opposing peoples hearts? Since there is nothing more for his men to do, and no more wars since the Mandalorians are nearly extinct (the war, and how many i killed in kotor ) he decides he needs some action?
lukeiamyourdad Posted October 30, 2004 Author Posted October 30, 2004 An exile wouldn't be Mandalore anymore and it's quite possible that Mandalorians don't exile people, they execute them. But the second theory does make sense. Maybe he'll call upon some Mandalorians to fight for you That would be sweet:p

If you watch the trailer on TSL's website, then in one scene youll see two mandalorians that are NOT hostile to you...a first the speculation is killing me!
Emperor Devon Posted October 30, 2004 Posted October 30, 2004 Maybe you save Mandalore's life or something... and he decides to pay you back.
BLG Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Since the Sith are in such a greater number than the good guys, perhaps Mandalore reunites his troops and kicks some Sith butt? I think something like that will happen. Like in Ep 2 when the Clone Troopers arive and beats the Seperatists on Kamino.
lukeiamyourdad Posted October 31, 2004 Author Posted October 31, 2004 But Clones are not Mandalorians. They're mindless beings just made for war. Mandalorians have a conscience at least and I have a hard time seeing how they would help the Republic.
DarthBuzzard Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 If you bring Canderous with you to the Mandalorian Mercenary on Manann, he will tell you that he dosen't hold a grudge to either Republic or Sith, and he works for the highest bidder. Perhaps other Mandalorians did this, and the Republic hired them. Maybe when Mandalore saw them flocking to the Republic's cause, he brought them all together to fight for the Republic. Unlikely, but posible. Still, where would the Republic get the money to hire Mandalorians if that is the case...
TemporaryTomato Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 If you talk a lot to Canderous, he tells you that Revan killed Mandalore. He also says that he is the best mandalorian warrior, except for Mandalore himself. AFAIK, when the Mandalore is killed(the mandalore is like the mandalorian king), the strongest warrior then takes his place. That means Candyman! That's my theory, at least. Why not? Canderous was a good character, and he survived the end of the game regardless of your alignment.

Still, where does he say he is the strongest warrior?
TemporaryTomato Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Originally posted by DarthBuzzard Thats a great theory, and it also ties in with the cameo idea. Still, where does he say he is the strongest warrior? I think it is when he tells you about some battle, and if you say the line "Yeah yeah, you were a great warrior Canderous." he replies with "Ha! I was the best! Except for Mandalore himself, of course." Something along those lines, anyway. edit: If anyone is wondering why Canderous would be wearing that weird armor, it's because it's mandalorian armor. The breathing tube stuff are for when the mandalorian warriors fight on their basilisk droids, in space(I read it on the obsidian forums).
LukeKatarn Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Cool. I doubt when tehy say Mandalore they mean Mandalorian. I think the yjust couldn't fit it in at the icon screen and went mandalor instead of Mandalorian so it could be Canderous.

Akari(a programmer working at Obsidian) has confirmed that the silver armour guy is THE Mandalore.
lukeiamyourdad Posted October 31, 2004 Author Posted October 31, 2004 Then again, Canderous did say that he is tired of all the killing.
DarthBuzzard Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Originally posted by lukeiamyourdad Then again, Canderous did say that he is tired of all the killing. So maybe the third best warrior in line is the one to be Mandalore... Speculation is killing me!
TemporaryTomato Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Originally posted by lukeiamyourdad Then again, Canderous did say that he is tired of all the killing. Yeah... Maybe he changed his mind.
Mono_Giganto Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Well if he comes equipped with "Ordo's Repeating Blaster" we'll know then...
*Yoinked* Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Yeah, but then it would be Mandalore's Heavy Repeating Blaster lol... Of topic, what is the official date (day, hour, month, year) of the PC release?? -Yoink
lukeiamyourdad Posted October 31, 2004 Author Posted October 31, 2004 February 2005. That's all we know. And lol It would be nice though if you could find Ordo's repeating blaster somewhere in the game.
