'''To Secrets Forever Bound'''
+
Kahi is a Sphinx, created by [[Seth]] at the dawn of his exhile. As a Sphinx she is prone to issue riddles to those who wish things from her, or even see her true form. Sphinx's are guardians and gate keepers to great power and knowledge, however she is the last of her kind. All those she would call like herself, have fallen into an endless sleep of stone and cold.
  
{''Kahi's Poem''}
+
<div class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;">[[File:KahiSphinx1.png|800px|thumb|center|]]</div>
  
Formless, shapeless, thoughtless; lost.
+
A Sphinx is an immortal being, they remain so until their great secret is told. Until that secret is known and understood by another, they will always be reborn when killed. Kahi can die, but she always comes back from the afterlife no matter the nature of her death.
  
Just a swirling potential, waiting to be.
 
  
Then there he was, wanting me to exist.
+
'''Kahi's ability to shift her form'''
  
Born into the world with force, mind and distinction.
+
She has many abilites including that of altering her form. She was in truth born as she is now without form, as such any form she takes is copied from things in the world. As any know, a Sphinx is an amalgam of different animals. The head of a man, body of a lion and wings of an eagle. Her ability to alter her form is not restricted to ideas of continuity, she can be anything she wishes to be.  
  
 +
Each form has slightly different abilities. Her preferred being lighter, faster and more agile. Able to dodge easily and attack quickly and accurately. Using superior strength in certain forms Kahi is able to overpower many she comes across. With superior defences, Kahi is able to take a great deal of punishment in some of her shapes. In her Anubite forms among others, Kahi gains the time needed to make more use of her ability to control certain energies. Using it to absorb incoming attacks.
  
With his will I am more than just a fiction.
 
  
This shape limits me. I am bound.
+
<div class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;">[[File:KahiAwake4.png|800px|thumb|center|]]</div>
  
Still there is more potential to be found.
 
  
I am released by those words spoken in silence.
+
Kahi is able to take on virtually any shape she wants. Taking aspects of things already in the world. She is able to have multiple aspects in one single form, using the example of her first and perhaps best known form in popular culture; that of the Sphinx. As stated, it is a mixture of different animals. Another example is a certain humanoid form; Kahi still has a soft spot for that form, it is a human shape, and therefore mostly human; though it has aspects of canine and feline characteristics.
  
 +
Kahi is also able to copy and form inorganic materials, usually incorporated into an organic form. For instance, though not a usual thing; Kahi can armour herself. One form in particular is one of an Nubian armoured from head to claw in metal. Not simply clad, but become. In that form her skin is metal, forming a formidable exoskeleton of armour. With eyes of shining metal and an almost impenetrable hide, Kahi has found this form rather useful in certain situations. This does, however make her substantially heavier, making her less agile in general. She 'prefers' being fast.
  
A terrible secret gives me defiance.
 
  
The secret is my life. The secret is my strife.
+
'''Form shifting, living "moonstone"'''
  
To hold forever within my mind.
+
Sometimes, it proves too much for many that get to know of her ability to change herself completely. She has been described as a living "moonstone". Her emotions, should they be felt keenly enough alter her form. Whether she wants them to or not. For example, should she feel afraid, her fear will materialise itself into a darkened, imposing form to burn her own fear into the souls of her enemies. Her anger, Wrath shines brightly in some uncompromising golden form; edged with vicious claws and almost insect like features.
  
Until the day that I do find,
 
  
That one person to let know, just how far madness may go.
+
'''In Battle'''
  
 +
As stated, much of Kahi's ability to fight stems from her ability to alter her shape. She can become more agile, stronger and give herself increased endurance this way. You will hardly ever see her fighting in a humanoid shape, simply because in such a form; she only has the abilities a human would. Reasonable strength for her size, but still only that of a human.
  
Devouring, eating hungry chaos.
+
However, she does have the strength of her 'Ka' and 'Ba'. She has what I can only describe as a very high spirit pressure. This can be seen when she utilizes her 'inner strength' as a strong glowing aura around her upper torso. This improves all of her abilities. From the strength of her 'Ka' and more often than not, her 'Ba'. 'Ba' is another way of saying 'soul of the heart'. It is an energy of feeling and unlike 'Ka' or, 'soul of the mind' it is someones personality; a person's feelings.
  
End making, life turning, torrent that wants us.
+
From her energies, her 'Ka' and 'Ba'; Kahi's aura of energy does change depending upon her feelings at the time. Also, the shape she takes also can have an effect on this energy.
  
Until that time here I stand.
+
That aside, Kahi sights with martial prowess. Forming from energy and using effectively two large Khopesh[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khopesh], vicious curved blades of her home. She has had millennia to practice her martial art, a love of dance and her innate abilities make her formidable in close range; even to a master.
  
Forever shifting with the red sand.
+
=='''''<div style="color:#000000; background-color: #D4A017">Kahi's Game'''</div>==
  
 +
As a Sphinx, Kahi is forced to ask a question when any one person sees her true self; the form a the Sphinx. Kahi is compelled to ask that person what they truely want, what they 'wish' for. Should a person reply and make a wish, even simply by speaking it. They will have entered into Kahi's game. Kahi will issue the player a riddle. To play for is the players wish and whatever suitable loss against it. The player has twenty four hours to answer Kahi's riddle without help or interference.
  
For I am golden, shining bright.
+
If the player wins, they get their wish; if it is possible for Kahi to grant. Should the player lose, get the riddle wrong. They lose whatever it is they wagered against the wish. Kahi will take whatever it was from them and very little in this world could stop her. It is an oath, you see. Binding and complex, there are very few ways out of Kahi's game. Death being the most popular choice.
  
Wrapped in shadow away from sight.
+
The loss of Kahi's game can range depending upon the wish. As example:
  
 +
Wish for immortality and lose, Kahi will kill the player.
  
'''In the Wake of a Mind'''
+
If you are blind and you wish for your sight back, then lose; Kahi will take one of your other senses.
  
{''Black Furr's Poem''}
+
Wish for wealth above all else, all food and drink you ever touch will turn to gold.
  
A mind sits on a small island of awareness. Broken shards of pain litter the shore.  
+
Wish for strength, for whatever purpose and lose; Kahi will sap your strength until you lay as the weakest being upon the Earth.
  
The open sky of joy arks over the dark sea of sorrow, giving way to the deep abysses of despair.  
+
Her game even holds power over Gods and Demons given the nature of it. There are very few things in creation that can nullify her game. Kahi, however does not like playing her game with anyone. She has lost more friends to it than she cares to remember. Even though she tries, she cannot forget them. Their names, their faces. What they wished for and why.
  
Fear swims here. An ancient beast of crippling jaws and serrated teeth. Prowling forever in the darkness.
+
'''The Greatest Secret of All'''
  
The golden sun shines love down into the depths. Casting shadows in the deep.
+
For someone to ask her of her great secret, they must answer her riddle. Playing their life and exisantance against the power gained from that wisdom. Once entered into, this contract cannot be voided. Some beings may already know of what she holds from the world; [[Seth]] certainly does. When her secret is told, Kahi will cease; she will turn to stone just like the other Sphinx's you can see today.
  
On the horizon, a storm of hate rages. Whipping waves of anger into the sea.
+
=='''''<div style="color:#000000; background-color: #D4A017">Kahi's History'''</div>==
  
Great stones stand resolute in the crashing waves, courageous, determined.
 
  
Evil reaches in. Grasping and cold. Lifting the mind from this existence. Taking thought from it's domain.
+
=='''''<div style="color:#000000; background-color: #D4A017">Friends and Opinions of Kahi'''</div>==
  
What happens to this scape, with no one to watch over it?
+
Kahi has made many friends over the long years of her life; most of which now are long gone and forgotten by all but her. Today, she enjoys the company of many that live in this modern age, a few perhaps like her in some respects and yet more that contrast with her.
  
It continues on. Love shines. Hate and anger rage. Joy uplifts and enraptures. Despair crushes, fear lurks.
+
She isn’t picky about who she speaks to, yet she is careful with who she takes closer to her heart. After millennia of loss, she can be fragile beneath it all yet she always tries to help her friends. She always has hope; despite her feelings on it sometimes.
  
The stones still stand beside the shore. And pain exists forever more.
+
She is an immortal, trying her best to live in the moment to escape the weight of memory; despite all her gifts, despite her abilities and years she is still so very human.
  
''A'nekh djet...''
 
  
 +
'''[[Seth]]'''
  
'''Hope and Despair'''
+
Kahi's relationship with [[Seth]] is needless to say a complex one. Many see them as a couple, this is however a rather incorrect view of them. [[Seth]] is her creator and yet she is made of nothing of [[Seth]] himself. She and [[Seth]] have been very close in the past. Sharing their existance because they were each, all that they had in the world. They love each other.
  
{''Kahi's Despair''}
+
Kahi has made many friends over the long years of her life; most of which now are long gone and forgotten by all but her. Today, she enjoys the company of many that live in this modern age, a few perhaps like her in some respects and yet more that contrast with her.
  
Time and tide do call me. Pride and hope shatter. Just a flutter of blue wings is all I am. Whenever I don't matter.
 
  
A deep feather falls. My wings close around me. Darkness hides within, always to confound me.
+
She isn’t picky about who she speaks to, yet she is careful with who she takes closer to her heart. After millennia of loss, she can be fragile beneath it all yet she always tries to help her friends. She always has hope; despite her feelings on it sometimes.
  
Plunging now, far over the edge.
 
  
Deep I tumble, no bottom to ever dredge.
+
She is an immortal, trying her best to live in the moment to escape the weight of memory; despite all her gifts, despite her abilities and years she is still so very human.
  
Drowning now, within my self. My wings do clasp around my rusted wealth.
+
The following are recorded interviews conducted by an UNTIL operative when the organisation tried to gather some information on the woman known as Kahi.
  
The light does shine upon my wings. Abyssal feathers, don't reflect anything.
 
  
The light is mine, I draw it in; To fill my nothing to the brim. Never full always hiding, void forever within.
+
'''Frank Destrega, owner of the Coffee House 7 in Down-town Millennium City'''
  
In my centre, Right below; Did you see that just glow?
+
"March, or maybe April; that was when she first started coming into my place. Always early morning, just as the sun was hitting the sky. I remember-- she always looked perfect like-- Like, the morning was her time. Like she owned the world and it had to follow her rather than the drag the rest of us have to pull ourselves through.
  
A spark a light, something with which to fight.
+
She'd sit next to the window, just her; she never had anyone with her though this meant-- I mean, I don't have a big place, just a small cafe. So people 'ad come up and speak to her-- only occasionally I mean. This woman had a confidence about her that would make anyone think twice about their chances, despite the-- well, I don't mean to judge a book by its cover but she was beautiful. Rich tanned skin, perfect black hair. She'd have golden highlights in it sometimes; just brought out her eyes.
  
Shining bright, through the never I do bite. Scything fourth with all my care.
+
Yeah-- The eyes. That's probably the thing I remember about her most were her eyes. She'd just look at you and smile and-- ya just can't look away. Like she'd catch you sneaking something too precious to take and you were just... Stuck, staring at her. A shimmering gold you can't believe, almost like she had the metal in 'em.</p>
  
Just to say I'm always there.
+
I'd watch 'er as she sat lookin out of the window. She'd just sit there, drinking her coffee. Black, one sugar... Watching the world go by. I thought about talking to her more than once but I-- just never got up the courage. Always regret I didn't ask her name...She doesn't come around here no more."
  
  
'''Flying Star'''

'''Methari, The Dream Demon and Kahi's adopted Sister'''
  
{''Kahi's loss''}
+
Methari's stance is slightly guarded;
  
Flown from me through infinite space
+
"So let me get this straight, you want me to tell you...about Kahi? How I feel about her? Mmmhmm...next you'll be telling me I have to register...right..yeah not happening. So about Kahi..."
  
Left of her own accord to her own disgrace.
+
The demon crosses her arms and taps her chin in thought.
  
Can't keep up this ragged pace...
+
"I met my sister through other people, as one tends to do. I mean, I was meaning lots of people that day...mom was showing me around and introducing me to her friends. Seth and Kahi stuck out in the crowd. I'll get to more on the old man in a minute, as you asked about her. I'm old...and have seen power. Kahi radiated a presence. It was one that almost demanded your attention, as if to dare you to look away from her. Then she smiled. She was talking to blondie, and he had said something witty to make her smile. Her expression conveyed an emotion that just flowed into the room, almost as if it were infectious. When she smiles, the world seems right. It's one of those...y'know?"
  
Simply falling though infinite space
+
Looks at the agent;
 +
"Hey hey! I said sister, I'm not infatuated....yeesh. It's not a "love at first sight" kind of thing. It's more like I said, "I dare you to look away and not smile too." kind of thing. As for her personality, she is like me...and Seth. We are long lived, and sometimes it shows, but she is patient....fair, kind...and whooo-boy do NOT get on her bad side."
  
All this time we try to keep face
+
"She and I have had our differences." Methari fidgets a bit, "I have upset her on more than one occasion. She, like mom and dad...has been able to look past what my outer appearance says about me. Despite all of the times I've upset her, she's always been kind to me. Patient. Her beauty on the outside is reflected in the soul inside. But why are you asking me about her? Go see for yourself. Her heart has room for those that would not do it harm, and her rage has no end for those that would. She is beauty and class, and a bit of sass all rolled into one very neat package."
  
To all the other stars within infinite space.
+
Methari whispers to the agent, "And she's a hell of a dresser...I'm SOOO jelly."
  
We can't control hearts
+
The demon leans back "As for my feelings? I've grown to love her as a dear sister. There are things that one day I hope we can share. Responsibilities we can handle together. But I'm there for her. I'll be there if she needs her hair brushed. I'll be by her side if she needs a shoulder to cry on. Then I'll have her back when she needs to bury the body. Kahi is within the circle that I trust with my existence, my heart, my soul...and all that is me."
  
No matter the quality of your learned arts.
 
  
From where you stand to there again.
+
'''Cache, Lea. Kahi's adopted Daughter.'''
  
All through this infinite plane
+
“Well... I don't know if I can top the demon... She cheats.”
 +
The young woman crosses her arms, her targeted technological eyes scan.
  
We stand alone, forgotten masked by scars
+
“But she is right. Ever so graceful; beautiful, weak and strong, and she loves me. I love her as well...”
 +
Cache raises a hand to adjust her hair.
  
Aimless in a sea of stars.
+
“I.. I.. yes me.. even was inspired by her to write a poem... it’s not good. but I made it.. because of her. I know technically shes supposed to be a sister; especially if you try to draw out the tree... but my birth mother died, long before I had the ability to remember her face.” Pauses, as if her words had a great deal of meaning behind them.
  
One bright star flew from me of her own accord
+
“So as far as I am concerned… Kahi is-- and always will be; mum.”
 +
She smiles faintly, watching the UNTIL operative as they watch her unique eyes.
  
Through the  endless board.
+
“My eyes are soulless, but hers are so golden, that when I look into them… I forget they are. Even if her appearance changes; she always remains.. Kahi.” Smirks then,
  
=='''''<div style="color:#000000; background-color: #D4A017">About Kahi'''</div>==

“But with great beauty and grace comes great slice-ability… Be wary, very wary...”
  
Kahi is a Sphinx, created by [[Seth]] at the dawn of his exhile. As a Sphinx she is prone to issue riddles to those who wish things from her, or even see her true form. Sphinx's are guardians and gate keepers to great power and knowledge, however she is the last of her kind.

'''Dominick, Kahi's adopted Brother'''
  
A Sphinx is an immortal being, they remain so until their great secret is told. Until that secret is known and understood by another, they will always be reborn when killed. Kahi can die, but she always comes back from the afterlife no matter the nature of her death. For someone to ask her of her great secret, they must answer her riddle. Playing their life and exisantance against the power gained from that wisdom. Once entered into, this contract cannot be voided. Some beings may already know of what she holds from the world her creator [[Seth]] certainly does. When her secret is told, Kahi will cease; she will turn to stone just like the other Sphinx's you can see.
+
"Well... what, do you expect me to say something bad of her?" He chuckled, rubbing the back of his head in a signature fashion.
  
 +
"Kahi is what you call a full package. Err... well... not like that of course! I mean... well... she is absurdly beautiful to a high level, there is no doubt about it. But she's also so powerful. It truly... amazes me to witness at how dynamic she's grown over the last few years I've known her," he smiles in thought, as if pondering about his dear friend.
  
'''Kahi's ability to shift her form'''
+
"She is my sister... or, well... like a sister to me, if you know what I mean. We've been through so much together; a lot of bad, a lot of good. She means so much to me, I don't know what I'd do if anything was to happen to her."  
 
+
She has many abilites including that of altering her form. She was in truth born as she is now without form, as such any form she takes is copied from things in the world. As any know, a Sphinx is an amalgam of different animals. The head of a man, body of a lion and wings of an eagle.

She is able to have multiple aspects in one single form, using the example of her first and perhaps best known form in popular culture; that of the Sphinx. As stated, it is a mixture of different animals. Another example is a certain humanoid form Black Furr created to try to fit in.

This does, however make her substantially heavier, making her less agile in general. She 'prefers' being fast.

+
'''Form shifting, living "moodstone"'''
+
 
+
Sometimes, it proves too much for many that get to know of her ability to change herself completely. She has been described as a living "moodstone". Her emotions, should they be felt keenly enough alter her form. Whether she wants them to or not. For example, should she feel afraid, her fear will materialise itself into a darkened, imposing form.
+
 
+
Her balance has changed. With the growth and evolution that Black Furr achieved while out in the world, Kahi has become something more than she was. Taking on emotions more keenly. She is comeplete, gaining great strength from the reunion of 'ib' and 'akh'. However, the being known as Black Furr is effectively no more. Taken into the whole and made heart again. Kahi is a new animal, however similar she is.
+
 
+
'''In Battle'''
+
 
+
As stated, much of Kahi's ability to fight stems from her ability to alter her shape. She can become more agile, stronger and give herself increased endurance this way. You will hardly ever see her fighting in a humanoid shape, simply because in such a form; she only has the abilities a human would. Reasonable strength for her size, but still only that of a human.
+
 
+
However, she does have the strength of her 'Ka' and 'Ba'. She has what I can only describe as a very high spirit pressure. This can be seen when she utilizes her 'inner strength' as a strong glowing aura around her upper torso. This improves all of her abilities. From the strength of her 'Ka' and more often than not, her 'Ba'. 'Ba' is another way of saying 'soul of the heart'. It is an energy of feeling and unlike 'Ka' or, 'soul of the mind' it is someones personality; a person's feelings.
+
 
+
From her energies, her 'Ka' and 'Ba'; Kahi's aura of energy does change depending upon her feelings at the time. Also, the shape she takes also can have an effect on this energy.
+
 
+
That aside, Kahi sights with martial prowess. Forming from energy and using effectively two large Khopesh[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khopesh], vicious curved blades of her home. She has had millennia to practice her martial art, a love of dance and her innate abilities make her formidable in close range; even to a master.
+
 
+
=='''''<div style="color:#000000; background-color: #D4A017">Kahi's Game'''</div>==

Kahi will take whatever it was from them and very little in this world could stop her. It is an oath, you see. Binding and complex, there are very few ways out of Kahi's game. Death being the most popular choice.
+
 
+
The loss of Kahi's game can range depending upon the wish. As example:
+
 
+
Wish for immortality and lose, Kahi will kill the player.
+
 
+
If you are blind and you wish for your sight back, then lose; Kahi will take one of your other senses.
+
 
+
Wish for wealth above all else, all food and drink you ever touch will turn to gold.
+
 
+
Wish for strength, for whatever purpose and lose; Kahi will sap your strength until you lay as the weakest being upon the Earth.
+
 
+
Her game even holds power over Gods and Demons given the nature of it. There are very few things in creation that can nullify her game. Kahi, however does not like playing her game with anyone. She has lost more friends to it than she cares to remember. Even though she tries, she cannot forget them. Their names, their faces. What they wished for and why.
+
 
+
=='''''<div style="color:#000000; background-color: #D4A017">Kahi's History'''</div>==
+
 
+
Kahi has not always been as she is now. For the longest time the sphinx was broken, into two distinct halves. There was her, Black Furr and there was him, White Furr.
+
 
+
She was "ib", the heart of the being that once was. Her emotions ruled her. Given the fluidity of her body, she was found to be an emo-morph at times of high emotion when she couldn’t control the storm anymore. She had however, evolved a great deal from the day of her birth. She had a mind of her own, as such she always strove to better herself.
+
 
+
He was "akh", the mind from which feeling was stolen. He was cold and logical, he never stopped. He had the same potential as Black Furr. However, given his nature he was extremely close minded in his abilities. He also had the power to change his form. However he only ever did to achieve a goal. His goal was to reunite with Black Furr and become whole again. He remembered what they used to be, he remembered feelings; above all else wanted them back. Despite his pretensions, all his logic and thought. He had evolved to a certain extent. He had his own feelings, wants and needs.
+
 
+
Black Furr was the heart of Kahi. She was simply fire and shadow, held in existence by [[Seth]]’s will alone. She was tasked by her Master in many ways; the destruction of evil and the protection of the good.
+
 
+
<div class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;">[[File:KahiAwake4.png|800px|thumb|center|]]</div>
+
 
+
The title Black Furr was simply something the imaginative masses dubbed her. At that time, she rarely gave out her real name. An immortal through lack of choice, she had become despondent at always being forgotten. Over the years, all those that knew her and once loved her had gone. Her name fades from the world everytime.
+
 
+
 
+
 
+
 
+
=='''''<div style="color:#000000; background-color: #D4A017">Existence and Friends'''</div>==
+
 
+
She has made friends in the mortal realm. People that mean a great deal to her. Being a creature of heart and feeling, she cares deeply for all of them. She had become so close to two people in particular, that she has given her heart to them and they to eachother. It's a rather complex affair. To say the least it's more than simple marriage. When Kahi's heart decides, it offers itself to that person. Should they decide to take it, they become bound to her and she to them. This is the power of her love. As with everyone else, it is possible to love more than one person at once. A re-occurring problem for Kahi with her friends is when they find out what she is- and what she is capable of. They are often in need... Though Kahi does what ever she can for them, more often than not they end up playing her little game. Making a wish and gambling whatever the price. Kahi has lost more then a few friends to her 'gift'.
+
 
+
 
+
''[[Seth]]''
+

Kahi's relationship with [[Seth]] is needless to say a complex one. Many see them as a couple, this is however a rather incorrect view of them. [[Seth]] is her creator and yet she is made of nothing of [[Seth]] himself. She and [[Seth]] have been very close in the past. Sharing their existance because they were each, all that they had in the world. They love each other.

''Friends''

He tilts his head at the UNTIL officer interviewing him, raising an eyebrow as a thought occurs to him. "I actually haven't seen her in a while, it feels. I just hope she's doing okay."
  
She is always kind to those who are kind to her. She makes very strong bonds with those she is around. To take note at this point would be wise. Even though she is kind, loving and affectionate she is capable of immense cruelty. Rage and anger run through her and are hard to control. So a word to those thinking of treating her badly. Know that, the physical manifestation of her anger, her fear, and her pain are forces to be noted. They are quite often in the flow of feeling, unthinking, mindless things.

"When you're within her presence, you just know everything will be alright... hehe, as silly as it sounds coming from me, it's the truth." A small blush formed onto his cheeks as he continued, though he quickly shakes his head to brush off the flush "But yeah! Don't ever get her angry though. Its official from me; believe what I say, because what I say is all true. Kahi can be the nicest and yet deadliest being on the planet depending on her mood, and I plan to continue doing anything it takes to stay on her bright side."
  
She was, in her Masters exile. Created for one reason. One purpose. Company, Friendship. Just someone to love.

Dominick shifts his footing to a more comfortable stance, speaking with pure warmth behind his tone of voice. "She is the reason I stay motivated... to become stronger with my abilities and potential. I want to compete at her level, show her how much I've changed as an individual because of what she taught me. If I hadn't ever met Kahi when I did, my life would not be where its at right now. I can only feel so grateful at the position where I stand; I've reached so many altitudes I never even dreamed of reaching! Haha!"
  
 +
"Because of her, I now serve Seth as his Avatar, his son. I wouldn't change my past for the world, I've loved every minute of it. But now? I must continue to make her proud, show her why I am her brother..."
  
 +
Dominick glanced up to the sky, his expression pausing in a daze. "She will always hold a special place in my heart, as I hope the same for her. She's one of the best people I've ever met."

The Riddle of Kahi

With potent, flowery words speak I,

Of something common, vulgar, dry;

I weave webs of pedantic prose,

In effort to befuddle those,

Who think I wile time away,

In lofty things, above all day

The common kind that linger where

Monadic beings live and fare;

Practical I may not be,

But life, it seems, is full of me!


About Kahi-- Spoilers~

Kahi is a Sphinx, created by Seth at the dawn of his exhile. As a Sphinx she is prone to issue riddles to those who wish things from her, or even see her true form. Sphinx's are guardians and gate keepers to great power and knowledge, however she is the last of her kind. All those she would call like herself, have fallen into an endless sleep of stone and cold.

KahiSphinx1.png

A Sphinx is an immortal being, they remain so until their great secret is told. Until that secret is known and understood by another, they will always be reborn when killed. Kahi can die, but she always comes back from the afterlife no matter the nature of her death.


Kahi's ability to shift her form

She has many abilites including that of altering her form. She was in truth born as she is now without form, as such any form she takes is copied from things in the world. As any know, a Sphinx is an amalgam of different animals. The head of a man, body of a lion and wings of an eagle. Her ability to alter her form is not restricted to ideas of continuity, she can be anything she wishes to be.

Each form has slightly different abilities. Her preferred being lighter, faster and more agile. Able to dodge easily and attack quickly and accurately. Using superior strength in certain forms Kahi is able to overpower many she comes across. With superior defences, Kahi is able to take a great deal of punishment in some of her shapes. In her Anubite forms among others, Kahi gains the time needed to make more use of her ability to control certain energies. Using it to absorb incoming attacks.



Kahi is able to take on virtually any shape she wants. Taking aspects of things already in the world. She is able to have multiple aspects in one single form, using the example of her first and perhaps best known form in popular culture; that of the Sphinx. As stated, it is a mixture of different animals. Another example is a certain humanoid form; Kahi still has a soft spot for that form, it is a human shape, and therefore mostly human; though it has aspects of canine and feline characteristics.

Kahi is also able to copy and form inorganic materials, usually incorporated into an organic form. For instance, though not a usual thing; Kahi can armour herself. One form in particular is one of an Nubian armoured from head to claw in metal. Not simply clad, but become. In that form her skin is metal, forming a formidable exoskeleton of armour. With eyes of shining metal and an almost impenetrable hide, Kahi has found this form rather useful in certain situations. This does, however make her substantially heavier, making her less agile in general. She 'prefers' being fast.


Form shifting, living "moonstone"

Sometimes, it proves too much for many that get to know of her ability to change herself completely. She has been described as a living "moonstone". Her emotions, should they be felt keenly enough alter her form. Whether she wants them to or not. For example, should she feel afraid, her fear will materialise itself into a darkened, imposing form to burn her own fear into the souls of her enemies. Her anger, Wrath shines brightly in some uncompromising golden form; edged with vicious claws and almost insect like features.


In Battle

As stated, much of Kahi's ability to fight stems from her ability to alter her shape. She can become more agile, stronger and give herself increased endurance this way. You will hardly ever see her fighting in a humanoid shape, simply because in such a form; she only has the abilities a human would. Reasonable strength for her size, but still only that of a human.

However, she does have the strength of her 'Ka' and 'Ba'. She has what I can only describe as a very high spirit pressure. This can be seen when she utilizes her 'inner strength' as a strong glowing aura around her upper torso. This improves all of her abilities. From the strength of her 'Ka' and more often than not, her 'Ba'. 'Ba' is another way of saying 'soul of the heart'. It is an energy of feeling and unlike 'Ka' or, 'soul of the mind' it is someones personality; a person's feelings.

From her energies, her 'Ka' and 'Ba'; Kahi's aura of energy does change depending upon her feelings at the time. Also, the shape she takes also can have an effect on this energy.

That aside, Kahi sights with martial prowess. Forming from energy and using effectively two large Khopesh[1], vicious curved blades of her home. She has had millennia to practice her martial art, a love of dance and her innate abilities make her formidable in close range; even to a master.

Kahi's Game

As a Sphinx, Kahi is forced to ask a question when any one person sees her true self; the form a the Sphinx. Kahi is compelled to ask that person what they truely want, what they 'wish' for. Should a person reply and make a wish, even simply by speaking it. They will have entered into Kahi's game. Kahi will issue the player a riddle. To play for is the players wish and whatever suitable loss against it. The player has twenty four hours to answer Kahi's riddle without help or interference.

If the player wins, they get their wish; if it is possible for Kahi to grant. Should the player lose, get the riddle wrong. They lose whatever it is they wagered against the wish. Kahi will take whatever it was from them and very little in this world could stop her. It is an oath, you see. Binding and complex, there are very few ways out of Kahi's game. Death being the most popular choice.

The loss of Kahi's game can range depending upon the wish. As example:

Wish for immortality and lose, Kahi will kill the player.

If you are blind and you wish for your sight back, then lose; Kahi will take one of your other senses.

Wish for wealth above all else, all food and drink you ever touch will turn to gold.

Wish for strength, for whatever purpose and lose; Kahi will sap your strength until you lay as the weakest being upon the Earth.

Her game even holds power over Gods and Demons given the nature of it. There are very few things in creation that can nullify her game. Kahi, however does not like playing her game with anyone. She has lost more friends to it than she cares to remember. Even though she tries, she cannot forget them. Their names, their faces. What they wished for and why.

The Greatest Secret of All

For someone to ask her of her great secret, they must answer her riddle. Playing their life and exisantance against the power gained from that wisdom. Once entered into, this contract cannot be voided. Some beings may already know of what she holds from the world; Seth certainly does. When her secret is told, Kahi will cease; she will turn to stone just like the other Sphinx's you can see today.

Kahi's History

Friends and Opinions of Kahi

Kahi has made many friends over the long years of her life; most of which now are long gone and forgotten by all but her. Today, she enjoys the company of many that live in this modern age, a few perhaps like her in some respects and yet more that contrast with her.

She isn’t picky about who she speaks to, yet she is careful with who she takes closer to her heart. After millennia of loss, she can be fragile beneath it all yet she always tries to help her friends. She always has hope; despite her feelings on it sometimes.

She is an immortal, trying her best to live in the moment to escape the weight of memory; despite all her gifts, despite her abilities and years she is still so very human.


Seth

Kahi's relationship with Seth is needless to say a complex one. Many see them as a couple, this is however a rather incorrect view of them. Seth is her creator and yet she is made of nothing of Seth himself. She and Seth have been very close in the past. Sharing their existance because they were each, all that they had in the world. They love each other.

The following are recorded interviews conducted by an UNTIL operative when the organisation tried to gather some information on the woman known as Kahi.


Frank Destrega, owner of the Coffee House 7 in Down-town Millennium City

"March, or maybe April; that was when she first started coming into my place. Always early morning, just as the sun was hitting the sky. I remember-- she always looked perfect like-- Like, the morning was her time. Like she owned the world and it had to follow her rather than the drag the rest of us have to pull ourselves through.

She'd sit next to the window, just her; she never had anyone with her though this meant-- I mean, I don't have a big place, just a small cafe. So people 'ad come up and speak to her-- only occasionally I mean. This woman had a confidence about her that would make anyone think twice about their chances, despite the-- well, I don't mean to judge a book by its cover but she was beautiful. Rich tanned skin, perfect black hair. She'd have golden highlights in it sometimes; just brought out her eyes.

Yeah-- The eyes. That's probably the thing I remember about her most were her eyes. She'd just look at you and smile and-- ya just can't look away. Like she'd catch you sneaking something too precious to take and you were just... Stuck, staring at her. A shimmering gold you can't believe, almost like she had the metal in 'em.</p>

I'd watch 'er as she sat lookin out of the window. She'd just sit there, drinking her coffee. Black, one sugar... Watching the world go by. I thought about talking to her more than once but I-- just never got up the courage. Always regret I didn't ask her name...She doesn't come around here no more."


Methari, The Dream Demon and Kahi's adopted Sister

Methari's stance is slightly guarded;

"So let me get this straight, you want me to tell you...about Kahi? How I feel about her? Mmmhmm...next you'll be telling me I have to register...right..yeah not happening. So about Kahi..."

The demon crosses her arms and taps her chin in thought.

"I met my sister through other people, as one tends to do. I mean, I was meaning lots of people that day...mom was showing me around and introducing me to her friends. Seth and Kahi stuck out in the crowd. I'll get to more on the old man in a minute, as you asked about her. I'm old...and have seen power. Kahi radiated a presence. It was one that almost demanded your attention, as if to dare you to look away from her. Then she smiled. She was talking to blondie, and he had said something witty to make her smile. Her expression conveyed an emotion that just flowed into the room, almost as if it were infectious. When she smiles, the world seems right. It's one of those...y'know?"

Looks at the agent; "Hey hey! I said sister, I'm not infatuated....yeesh. It's not a "love at first sight" kind of thing. It's more like I said, "I dare you to look away and not smile too." kind of thing. As for her personality, she is like me...and Seth. We are long lived, and sometimes it shows, but she is patient....fair, kind...and whooo-boy do NOT get on her bad side."

"She and I have had our differences." Methari fidgets a bit, "I have upset her on more than one occasion. She, like mom and dad...has been able to look past what my outer appearance says about me. Despite all of the times I've upset her, she's always been kind to me. Patient. Her beauty on the outside is reflected in the soul inside. But why are you asking me about her? Go see for yourself. Her heart has room for those that would not do it harm, and her rage has no end for those that would. She is beauty and class, and a bit of sass all rolled into one very neat package."

Methari whispers to the agent, "And she's a hell of a dresser...I'm SOOO jelly."

The demon leans back "As for my feelings? I've grown to love her as a dear sister. There are things that one day I hope we can share. Responsibilities we can handle together. But I'm there for her. I'll be there if she needs her hair brushed. I'll be by her side if she needs a shoulder to cry on. Then I'll have her back when she needs to bury the body. Kahi is within the circle that I trust with my existence, my heart, my soul...and all that is me."


Cache, Lea. Kahi's adopted Daughter.

“Well... I don't know if I can top the demon... She cheats.” The young woman crosses her arms, her targeted technological eyes scan.

“But she is right. Ever so graceful; beautiful, weak and strong, and she loves me. I love her as well...” Cache raises a hand to adjust her hair.

“I.. I.. yes me.. even was inspired by her to write a poem... it’s not good. but I made it.. because of her. I know technically shes supposed to be a sister; especially if you try to draw out the tree... but my birth mother died, long before I had the ability to remember her face.” Pauses, as if her words had a great deal of meaning behind them.

“So as far as I am concerned… Kahi is-- and always will be; mum.” She smiles faintly, watching the UNTIL operative as they watch her unique eyes.

“My eyes are soulless, but hers are so golden, that when I look into them… I forget they are. Even if her appearance changes; she always remains.. Kahi.” Smirks then,

“But with great beauty and grace comes great slice-ability… Be wary, very wary...”


Dominick, Kahi's adopted Brother

"Well... what, do you expect me to say something bad of her?" He chuckled, rubbing the back of his head in a signature fashion.

"Kahi is what you call a full package. Err... well... not like that of course! I mean... well... she is absurdly beautiful to a high level, there is no doubt about it. But she's also so powerful. It truly... amazes me to witness at how dynamic she's grown over the last few years I've known her," he smiles in thought, as if pondering about his dear friend.

"She is my sister... or, well... like a sister to me, if you know what I mean. We've been through so much together; a lot of bad, a lot of good. She means so much to me, I don't know what I'd do if anything was to happen to her."

He tilts his head at the UNTIL officer interviewing him, raising an eyebrow as a thought occurs to him. "I actually haven't seen her in a while, it feels. I just hope she's doing okay."

"When you're within her presence, you just know everything will be alright... hehe, as silly as it sounds coming from me, it's the truth." A small blush formed onto his cheeks as he continued, though he quickly shakes his head to brush off the flush "But yeah! Don't ever get her angry though. Its official from me; believe what I say, because what I say is all true. Kahi can be the nicest and yet deadliest being on the planet depending on her mood, and I plan to continue doing anything it takes to stay on her bright side."

Dominick shifts his footing to a more comfortable stance, speaking with pure warmth behind his tone of voice. "She is the reason I stay motivated... to become stronger with my abilities and potential. I want to compete at her level, show her how much I've changed as an individual because of what she taught me. If I hadn't ever met Kahi when I did, my life would not be where its at right now. I can only feel so grateful at the position where I stand; I've reached so many altitudes I never even dreamed of reaching! Haha!"

"Because of her, I now serve Seth as his Avatar, his son. I wouldn't change my past for the world, I've loved every minute of it. But now? I must continue to make her proud, show her why I am her brother..."

Dominick glanced up to the sky, his expression pausing in a daze. "She will always hold a special place in my heart, as I hope the same for her. She's one of the best people I've ever met."
