I had taken some time to take a look at some of the pages about Captain Ozlo & the Skylark & noticed some of the information has been outdated, so I updated it to reflect the game's lore seen in the game & it's intro sequence. I hope you don't mind.

Plus, I have this feeling that Captain Ozlo may be alive after the Skylark's attack before it crash-landed to Cradle. Everyone got out after he ordered an immediate evacuation before it exploded, & I would think he left the ship, too. Perhaps one day, he will be found and rescued. One day. We can all hope for his survival, can we?

going down with the ship?

Yes, it's possible that Captain Ozlo is alive. On the other hand, there is a long-standing notion of the "captain going down with the ship". So I wouldn't be surprised if he was the last to exit or didn't exit at all.

Is he mentioned at all after the intro sequence? In which missions? Specifics would help us flesh out the page without resorting to speculation.

@bopp

Well, from what I've read, he is mentioned by speaking to Feron, Vaelyn & Greta... by far, so, I can say that he's still alive. I can imagine that he's doing his best to survive the dangers until he would be found by us knights. I forget which missions Ozlo's mentioned in. I may take some time to scour through some past missions, so, I'll see if I remember. Nevertheless, he's still around, & he may be found... one day. Can't leave the good captain behind, you know.

I would not think he would be the one to go with the old-fashioned notion you mentioned, so I think he did not go down with the ship. I would think that he escaped & crash-landed before the last minute, like all others.

hmm

I'm wary of conjecture edits. I prefer to use direct quotes from npcs (even using images so fewer mistakes might be made). It's a wiki - so this stuff is a little iffy to put on there.

If you do go through the missions, get screen caps of the dialogue boxes and use those. Examples of dialogue boxes are on the Nature Sprite and Tenzhill's page.

Personally...

I'm going to say what we're all thinking: "I hope Ozlo is dead."
Yes, feel free to gasp in indignation if you'd prefer to be hypocrites, but we all remember what Ozlo was *really* like.

That man would never replace the paper towels in the break room when he used the last one.

He would steal other peoples' lunches from the fridge and claim "captain's prerogative" when confronted.

He took "Casual Friday" WAAAYYYYY too far.

And the men know--you did NOT use the rest room near the bridge on Taco Tuesday.

Yes, he has a very captain-y beard. Escaped the Morai. Nobly went down with the ship. That's all well and good.
The damn idjit also got us stranded on an alien world full of hostile natives, fire pits, desolate frozen peaks, and SPIKES IN THE FLOOR. Who installs spikes instead of carpeting? In the middle of a room? Who? Why!?
"Well honey, we should really redecorate the dining room this year. I'm thinking a cherrywood table and some death traps--just to keep our dinner parties interesting."
Let's also consider the planet is full of native species who want to exterminate us OR steal our souls OR eat us OR take our money. The only benevolent beings on this mudball are the Snipes and they don't exactly do us any favors.
AND don't forget there's some kind of alien intelligence living in the center of the planet who wants us to fend off some other alien intelligence trying to move into the center of the planet. Everything we know about these two beings could be written on a post-it note. For all we know the white one is evil and likes to eat puppies. I don't even know why we're helping it, except that the white one gives us fancy armors and the black one doesn't. It's like we're fighting and dying to decide which tenant gets to rent an apartment.

This is what we're dealing with, people! If our glorious ex-captain pointed the ship 2 degrees to the left when we started running from the Morai we probably would have missed this giant stellar deathtrap. And you all hope he's still alive.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Now instead of wasting my time beating up the Vanaduke pinata for his candy-like radiant filling, I'm going to go slap some of the nerd knights until they build us a rocket off this dump.
