I have never ever recruited Mical...

[Visas]

I've completed the normal version of The Sith Lords twice and on each of those times I've visited Dantooine. I've seen Mical and had a chat with him in the library place, but I've never recruited him or even got close to doing so. Yet I see in other peoples games that people have recruited him and joined their parties.

Why is it that I've never had Mical join my party, I'm very confused on this matter?

[Rtas Vadum]

Do you always play as a male exile? If so, you'd only chat with him, either at the Enclave or Khoonda. If you play a female exile, then you can still chat with him, but eventually he mentions joining the party.

I see, so basically he only joins you if your exile is female?

That's exactly the trigger for it. He is the female exile's equivalent of Brianna, really - at least, in terms of the most basic character set-up. (Soldier class with a concealed real name that Kreia seems inordinately concerned over.)

Do you never get to know his real name in the game? If he's with you and you're a female.

Not that I recall - I think the name is only mentioned during the communication with the Republic Admiral during the male Exile's story. Maybe it was in cut content for the female exile's story - it does seem odd that it was never (that I remember) mentioned.
