I think Dorian kept Soolin around to pick her brains while he developed the clipguns. Dorian was smart, but not smart enough to build the teleport by himself, or to realise he was actually building a tele-ergotron. So he consulted the Seska while building the teleport, and he saw Ensor at some stage, possibly when designing Slave (Slave was described as 'advanced' in Rescue, remember).
I don't think Soolin had been around Dorian long enough to have seen any other victims.
There is a slight confusion over dates with Ensor - in 'Deliverance'/'Orac' it is said that he disappeared some forty odd years ago but Avon in 'Rescue' says twenty (though it is implied that the Ensors were in occasional touch with the rest of the galaxy for more than suplies. Servalan says in DEliverance that there had been rumours about Orac for years)
