!!Kress
Kress was a slave girl-turned prostitute appearing during "The Quest for Magic" and "The Hunt" sub-arcs, who worked in a neighboring tribe ruled by Chief Pownetkee's brother when Liska, Pyndan and Rial went to take a rest during the first's vision quest. She is also notable for being the only female outside Liska's harem and immediate family which she had sex with, despite not being married with her. She went to find Liska again during the events of "The Hunt" in order to marry with her. [[spoiler:It turns outs this was a ruse from her, with the help of Indigo, in order to manipulate her, her tribe and the other Native tribes, in order for Indigo to test his new flintlock rifle, and that without going with the fact she helped Indigo to lure the Gomarrin monsters to the Plains region in order to do so. After Liska knew the true, as a retalation she "gave" Kress to Indigo as his wife in order to both saving face within both her tribe and the other Native tribes, especially if they knew Kress' relation with Liska, and also as a revenge. To make the matters worse, it was implied that was Indigo's plan from a beginning. Oddly enough, Kress agreed with her regarding her own "punishment", but that didn't prevented Liska from regreting this later for the rest of her life]].

* PretextForWar: The real reason why Rakon [[spoiler:wanted to settle the score with Liska and her tribe was because, just like them, they were searching for a new place to live after their original one, the Red Canyon, were also suffering from a crippling drought. Since the forest where the Highland tribe was the only one with enough resources for sustaining people on miles away, they only way to his tribe to survive was to exterminate the whole Highland tribe once for all]]. Ironically enough, [[spoiler:after he died at issue 36, his whole tribe was absorbed by the Highland tribe, except for a loyalist force bent to avenge Rakon's death]].

A member from the Red Canyon tribe, Rakon is the closest thing to a recurrent antogonist the comic had. He debuted during the [[TournamentArc tribal games]], when Shaygin, Liska's concubine, brought some food to him, but Rakon, thinking that Shaygin was a SexSlave, gave her a ForcedKiss to her, causing Liska to face him directly. Surprised and disgusted to see a warrior woman, Rakon mocked her to no end, causing Liska to take the matters personally against him during the games, culminating with him on [[spoiler:attempting to rape her in her teepee, but she was saved by her brother Markree and Rial before he could laid a finger on her]]. From there onwards, Leahtrah explains that Rakon became Liska's worst enemy she ever had and they faced on battle each other in many moments of their lives. [[spoiler:[[FinalBattle He had the chance of settle the score with Liska once for all when they became older]], when he and his tribe launched a midnight ambush attack at the Highland tribe, but thanks to Liska's spies, she managed to figure his tactics, and after she and his men managed to kill all his war party, except him. Rakon then faced Quiet Bird in a personal DeathDuel, but the formed killed him with a single blow. Unfortunately for the entire Highland tribe, he already considered his own death in his plans, and his remaining faithful warriors launched another, more successful ambush at midnight, managing to score many casualities. Liska had to sacrifice herself in order to drive his goons out from the tribe, while the reinforcements returned to finish with the rest of the invaders]].

By the time he became an adult, he was taller than ''everyone else''.


Added DiffLines:

* NoNameGiven: The name "Runt" was not his real name, but a nickname given by Magda, the leader of the Amazons to him. If he had a real name, it was lost because his biological mother died a year ago and she didn't bothered to teach him to even speak. Since he rarely speak as a child, much less doing any kind of sound, [[spoiler:Patches renamed him as Quiet Bird, because he sounded like one]].
* ThePigPen: As a result of being neglected by his peers from a very young age, Quiet Bird as a kid not only had never took a bath until [[spoiler:he was adopted by Liska]], but he also had ''fleas'', much for [[spoiler:her personal horror. Also, according with her daughter Linna in the last issue of the sub-arc]] he also wet himself anywhere until he used a loincloth.

** Liska got even worse, as [[spoiler:as being in the receiving end of Pyndan's "curse" wasn't enough for her, the Goddess gave her a SuicidalSadisticChoice in order for Liska to became a warrior: Becoming either a prostitute, the wife of a deadbeat abusive husband, or becoming a warrior, but dying a painful death in combat alone. Liska chose the warrior's path, which, while being the less suckiest of the three options, still caused lots of pains in her life and, in the large scale of the things, was the catalyst of a even bigger disaster that befall planet Katmandu by causing a 200-year long war between the two feline races that dominate the planet]], and, unlike [[spoiler:Pyndan]], [[UngratefulBitch neither she or any of her ancestors had anything that could had wronged the Goddess in the past, considering how Liska was pretty devote to her]].

* DealWithTheDevil: Inverted: Liska, and very likely anyone who wanted to be a warrior, basically made a deal with the Goddess for her to give them her blessings, at a ''very steep'' price. In Liska's case, she had to, because [[SuicidalSadisticChoice her other choices are even worse]], and while her desire was the least worst of all her choices, it wasn't exactly a nice one either, because, in hindsight [[spoiler:it caused lots of unnecesary pains for her, her mate Rial died, she had to step away from Pyndan, her SecondLove, she had to become a somewhat distant figure for her own children in order to become a good leader, and at the very end of her life, she had to [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifice her life in order to protect her family and tribe]]]], [[DarkAndTroubledPast and that without mention]] losing her parents, and being MadeASlave before all this, which makes you wonder how "benevolent" the goddess really is.

!Red Canyon Tribe
[[folder:Rakon]]
!!Rakon
[[quoteright:230:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kat_rakon.png]]
A member from the Red Canyon tribe, Rakon is the closest thing to a recurrent antogonist the comic had. He debuted during the [[TournamentArc tribal games]], when Shaygin, Liska's concubine, brought some food to him, but Rakon, thinking that Shaygin was a SexSlave, gave her a ForcedKiss to her, causing Liska to face him directly. Surprised and disgusted to see a warrior woman, Rakon mocked her to no end, causing Liska to take the matters personally against him during the games, culminating with him on [[spoiler:attempting to rape her in her teepee, but she was saved by her brother Markree and Rial before he could laid a finger on her]]. From there onwards, Leahtrah explains that Rakon became Liska's worst enemy she ever had and they faced on battle each other in many moments of their lives. [[spoiler:[[FinalBattle He had the chance of settle the score with Liska once for all when they became older]], when he and his tribe launched a midnight ambush attack at the Highland tribe, but thanks to Liska's spies, she managed to figure his tactics, and after she and his men managed to kill all his war party, except him. Rakon then faced Quiet Bird in a personal DeathDuel, but the formed killed him with a single blow. Unfortunately for the entire Highland tribe, he already considered his own death in his plans, and his remaining faithful warriors launched another, more successful ambush at midnight, managing to score many casualities. Liska had to sacrifice herself in order to drive his goons out from the tribe, while the reinforcements returned to finish with the rest of the invaders]].
----
* AttemptedRape: He attempted to rape [[spoiler:Liska at the end of ther tribal games, but both Markree and Rial stop him before he could do anything]].
* BackForTheFinale: [[spoiler:He was the final opponent Liska has to face, when the latter tried to destroy her tribe once for all]].
* BlackSheep: According with the description given by Chief Pownetkee to Liska about Rakon's identity, the Red Canyon people are normally considered peaceful people, but Rakon is the ''exception'' on that rule.[[spoiler: This is subverted like hell in the worst way possible, as they are also as bad as him, especially when they attacked the Highland tribe when their warriors were out to hunt]].
* BigBad: The closest thing ''Katmandu'' has to a recurrent villain, even if he only appears in just three sub-arcs.
* EvilCounterpart: He is basically all the opossite of what Liska really was: Racist, mysogynist, a massive jerkass and also heavily implied to be a serial rapist, [[spoiler:to the grade he also tried to do this on Liska]].
* GenderedInsult: He insulted Liska by calling her a "she-male", because she was a female warrior, and also because she was bisexual.
* GroinAttack: Rakon got his family jewels smashed by Shaygin when he [[ForcedKiss force-kissed her]].
* KilledOffscreen: [[spoiler:We don't see the moment when Quiet Bird killed him, except when the narrator, Master Cheddar, mentioned that the former [[CurbStompBattle didn't had a problem on turning him into mince meat]]]].
* KnightOfCerebus: His debut marks the point when the story became more DarkerAndEdgier, to the grade that [[spoiler:he was the final opponent Liska has to defeat in order to both became the chief of the Highland tribe and also to for her own tribe's survival]].
* HeroKiller: A rather bizarre version of this trope happens during [[spoiler:the final battle between both Liska and him: Liska managed to kill him first with the help of his adopted son Quiet Bird, who was younger, taller and even stronger than him in his prime time. [[DidntSeeThatComing What she didn't expected]] is that he had more warriors who wanted to exact revenge on him and they managed to kill her in his name, but not before she managed to drive them away from the rest of the tribe]].
* ANaziByAnyOtherName: Very likely invoked with his looks and outright stated later on: In the color cover of issue 20, both his hair and his fur has a golden tint, and his buckskin had also both khaki and golden tones, and that without going with the structure of this face, giving him the impression of a stereotypical Nazi officer. What makes his existence quite [[OxymoronicBeing oxymoronical]], however, is the fact he was an lion-cat hybrid, basically the in-universe version of someone of mixed ethnicity, which would quickly disqualify him on the Nazi part in RealLife. And to top it off, [[spoiler:[[FinalSolution he planned to do a full-out mass genocide on the Highland tribe]]]].
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: At first, Rakon was depicted as [[BarbaricBully a massive racist, mysoginist and homophobic bully]] who just want to humiliate Liska, Shaygin and the whole Highland tribe [[ForTheEvulz for his own sake]]. Then, [[spoiler:he tried to rape Liska at the end of the sub-arc after he lose in the tribal games, and decades later, he tried to kill her and her whole tribe. Ironically enough, he technically succeded in the former, but not in the latter, through this was done post-mortem by his own loyal men]].
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Rakon was racist against cats with ''both'' black (Rial) and white (Pyndan) fur, not to mention being [[StayInTheKitchen misogynist]] and also being homophobe, as he named Liska a "she-male", due to her position as a warrior and also because she was bisexual.
* ScarsAreForever: For unexplained reasons, Rakon has many furless patches across his body and his face, meaning he suffered burns on some moment of his life, making him more scarier than he already was.
* ThanatosGambit: [[spoiler:Rakon managed to outsmart Liska from beyond the grave by using the rest of his warriors in a final attack against the Highland tribe in order to both avenge his death at the hands of Quiet Bird and also to kill everyone in the Highland tribe, Liska included, in an surprise attack when she and the other warriors were drunk after defeating Rakon]].
* VillainForgotToLevelGrind: [[spoiler:Rakon didn't expected to face a bigger, stronger opponent during his final duel against Quiet Bird, since the only opponents he had faced before in his life, besides Liska, was smaller, weaker foes, and he never expected that Liska would refuse to fight against him personally, which ended up dooming him]].
* WorldsStrongestMan: He was one of the strongest warriors of his era, along with Hesta, and he was stronger enough to even fight against the Gomorrin with just a mace and managing to even break one of its legs. [[spoiler: Brutally subverted in the most savage way possible, as Quiet Bird, Liska's adopted son, was even stronger than him and he managed to kill him with [[CurbStompBattle a single blow]]]].

!The Amazons
They were a tribe of [[spoiler:Hoplite saber-tooth tigers]] who many people thought went extinct years ago, but during a mission, both Liska and Hesta found them, and after winning their trust, [[spoiler:they gave their only living son, Quiet Bird, to Liska]].
!!Tropes associated with all of them:
* DyingRace: The [[spoiler:Amazons Liska and Hesta found]] are the only living members of their race, and they are painfully aware of that fact, and that was one of the reasons they [[spoiler:gave their only child to Liska in order to protect him]].
[[folder:Quiet Bird]]
!!Quiet Bird
The last surviving member of the [[spoiler:saber-tooth tiger Amazon race]] and [[spoiler:Liska's last children she had by adoption]]. Despite his fiery looks, he was a quite nice, through quiet, guy, who really loved his parents a lot, especially his [[spoiler:step-mother Liska]]. He played an important role during the [[spoiler:final battle against Rakon as an adult, as he was the one who killed him in a single blow during the first battle against his tribe]] and later [[spoiler:when Rakon's remaining warriors assaulted the village, and he carried Liska's final message to her other warriors who were out for hunting at that time in order to carry a counterattack]].
----
* TheBigGuy: As an adult, he was bigger than [[spoiler:not only his parents and everyone else, but also both Hesta and Rakon, managing to kill the latter with just one strike]].
* CurbStompBattle: [[spoiler:How the battle against Rakon turned out. This is even lampshaded by the narrator]].
-->[[spoiler:'''Master Cheddar''']]: [[{{Understatement}} It really wasn't much of a fight]].
* HappilyMarried: With Dancing Star at issue 36.
* LastOfItsKind: [[spoiler:The last surviving member of the Amazon race]] by the time he became an adult.
* SummonBiggerFish: Liska brought him to [[spoiler:her final duel against Rakon, since as the tribe chief, she could not face Rakon in personal combat anymore, and Quiet Bird was strong enough to [[CurbStompBattle wipe the floor with him]]]].

!Other Characters
[[folder:Indigo]]
!!Indigo Weechai
[[quoteright:172:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kat_indigo.png]]
Appears exclusively in "The Hunt" sub-arc. Indigo is a Hoplite lion inventor and explorer from "the land of the setting sun"[[note]]Heavily implied to be either the ''Katmandu'' versions of Europe or Japan.[[/note]] who went to the Plains region in order to warn their inhabitants about the danger of a wandering [[{{Kaiju}} monster]] named "[[RentAZilla Gomorrin]]", which caused that every tribe from the region to bring their best warriors in order to defeat the monster. Indigo was also armed with a flintlock rifle, being the only character during Liska's era armed with a powder-based firearm. [[spoiler:It turns out he manipulated Kress, Liska's former acquaintance from her post-slavery times and a former slave, in order to lure not only the first Gomorrin they killed, but also [[TheresAnother its other mate]], who went into a literal RoaringRampageOfRevenge against both felines and rodents, so he could test his rifle against both beasts. As a result of his actions, he caused a nasty break-up between Liska and Kress, causing the former to retaliate by giving the latter to Indigo, [[TheBadGuyWins something he wanted in first place]]]].
----
* TheBadGuyWins: Well, to call him a "bad guy" would be a very strong word here, but at the end of the day he [[spoiler:manipulated every single Native character of the story, including Liska and even people like Rakon, in order to help him take down both monsters, so he could test his brand-new flintlock rifle on them, at great personal cost for the Plains people, since lots of people died, including a clan leader, and he caused a break-up between Liska and Kress when the latter betrayed the former by helping Indigo on luring both monsters to the Plains region, so all the Natives could help him on his mission. To top it all, taking advantage on Liska's break-up with Kress, he managed to get married with Kress after Liska, in retaliation agaisnt her, decided to give her to Indigo, very likely to avoid making the things worse for everyone else]].
* ChekhovsGun: An almost literal example happens during [[spoiler:the final battle against Rakon, at least during the first duel against him: Thanks to some spies that analyzed the Red Canyon tribe's movements beforehand, Liska predicted what his tactics would be, ann knowing that Rakon would be a tough opponent to handle herself, she asked Hesta to go to Hoplite lands and brought many of his rifles to the tribe in order to kill all the invading warriors, excluding Rakon, who was defeated and KilledOffscreen by Quiet Bird instead in a CurbStombBattle]].
* {{Expy}}: He is technically a composite expy of two characters, one being fictious and another being a real-life one: His role in the story is very similar to Dr. Daisuke Serizawa from the [[Film/{{Gojira}} very first Godzilla film]], as both men are inventors with an unusual weapon for their settings (Flintlock rifle and Oxygen Destroyer respectively) and being also the ''Katmandu'' version of [[spoiler:[[UsefulNotes/{{Pocahontas}} John Smith]], since he married with a Native women as a "gift", while the latter went with the foreigner in order to know other countries other than her own]].
* InSeriesNickname: The Ratkind warriors called him "Old Smokey", after his flintlock rifle.
* MightyWhitey: In a sense, as he is a foreigner from outside the Plains region and he hails from a much advanced culture, compared with the semi-barbarical setting of the comic, and that without going he is a Hoplite lion with blond hair, and with a ''flintlock rifle'', a weapon completely unknown in that place at Liska's era. To make matters worse, [[spoiler:He manipulated '''every single character''', Liska included, for his own personal gain, while the Natives sustained heavy losses, including the death of a clan leader]].
* ObliviouslyEvil: It's heavily implied that, while his intentions are good, he was completely unaware of the effects from his own actions had on the Plains' Natives; through some actions, like [[spoiler:causing a wedge betwen Liska and Kress by using the latter to lure the monsters to the Plains]] were possibly intentional.

[[folder:Gomorrin]]
!!Gomorrin
[[quoteright:143:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kat_gomorrin.png]]
[[caption-width-right:143:Any similarity to a certain [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} Japanese giant lizard]] who loves [[TheTokyoFireball to wreck havok on its capital city]] is [[BlatantLies just a coincidence]].]]
A giant T-Rex-like monster wandering the Plains region, killing and destroying anything in its path and the main antagonist of ''The Hunt'' sub-arc. The presence of that monster caused that all the warriors of the region, including the ones from the Highland tribe, to join forces in order to kill it before it could rampage their homes. [[spoiler:The things went south when it turns out [[ThereIsAnother another, more dangerous relative of the first slain Gomorrin]] appeared in order to exact revenge against the Natives]]. At very end of the sub-arc, [[spoiler:it turns out both monsters were lured by Kress by orders of Indigo to the Plains region in order to test his flintlock rifle, at the expense of the lives of many people]].
----
* EyeScream: [[spoiler:The first Gomorrin was defeated this way when Indigo blinded her by shooting in her eyes. Unfortunately for him, the same tactic didn't work for her rampaging, avenging mate, since his skin was much resiliant to anything, including bullets]].
* {{Expy}}: Of [[Franchise/{{Godzilla}} The King of the Monsters itself]], except this one has a horn in its head, and lacks Godzilla's Atomic Breath, or anything supernatural, for that matter. It doesn't stop it from still being dangerous, however.
* FromBadToWorse: After the Natives [[spoiler:managed to kill the first Gomorrin, which turned to be female, her mate went into a literal RoaringRampageOfRevenge over the entire cast, and this one was much ''tougher'' to defeat than the female]].
* MoreDeadlyThanTheMale:[[spoiler: Inverted, the second, male Gomorrin the Natives face after they killed the female one was much tougher and dangerous than his female mate]].
* OutsideContextVillain: ''Big time'': Until this point, all the foes Liska and her tribe has faced had being either wild beasts or humanoid-sized enemies (like Willoem, Rakon and [[spoiler:the Amazons]]), which she normally faced them using either diplomacy or brute force. The Gomorrin is the first foe she had to use both her wits and her skill as a warrior in order to defeat [[spoiler:the first Gomorrin and her avenging mate]].
* RentAZilla: In a comic book that deals mostly with either romance, slice-of-life or tribal warfare, you wouldn't expect Liska and her tribe to face one of these, don't you?
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: A very literal example, as [[spoiler:the second Gomorrin does this on the whole cast after they killed his female mate]].
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Flint]]
!!Flint
[[quoteright:117:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kat_flint.jpg]]
A slave trader and also Liska's antagonist of sorts, on the grounds of his job, considering how the latter really hated slavery with a passion, this guy was a pain in Liska's rear for many reasons, as he always wanted to find a way to screw her over, as she tricked him into selling [[spoiler:Rial]] for a loss, a fact her never managed to get over with.
----
* TheCorrupter: During the two first issues of the "Curse of the Blood" sub-arc, Flint manipulated Willoem, another warrior who wanted to marry with Panka, Pyndan's younger sister and was rejected by her in order to marry Gareth instead, to fight Liska, the head warchief and [[spoiler:Panka's mother by kinship]] in a death duel.
* EnemyMine: Just like anyone else, he joined forces with Liska in order to defeat the Gomorrin in "The Hunt" sub-arc, something that is even lampshaded by both.
* HateSink: No one liked this guy, due to his job as a slave trader, especially Liska and her tribe, and he didn't tried to hide that he was a disgusting, manipulative douchebag.

[[folder:Patches]]
!!Pajalis aka Patches
[[quoteright:106:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kat_patches.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:106:Patches, as designed by Ursula Husted.]]
She makes her debut in the "Wicked Ways" sub-arc; Pajalis, also known as Patches by everyone else, including her family, was the younger member of a family of people who roamed in the Highlands with the intention of leeching as much as food as they could from their hosts, taking advantage from their SacredHospitality traditions. While trying to do the same with Liska's Highland tribe, she was captured by Hesta and she became Liska's virtual hostage in order to figure out Patches and her family's intentions. [[spoiler:When her father and her elder sisters kidnapped Thea in order to force Liska to bring back Patches with her, the former decided to marry Patches in order to keep her in the Highland tribe and also to rescue Thea from Patches' family]].
----
* AbsurdlyYouthfulMother: As a result of [[spoiler:being Liska's wife, she become the mother of her children by kinship, something that shocked Thea after Liska rescued her, and [[TakeThat Patches scold her afterwards.]] Keep in mind both Patches and Thea were both ''18 years old'' when the former debuted.]]
* ArrangedMarriage: With [[spoiler:Liska, in order to force Patches' father to let Patches to stay in the tribe]].
* IChooseToStay: Since Patches [[spoiler:married with Liska, she choose to stay in her tribe rather than continue being her family's personal slave, much for her father and sister's disgust]].
* InformedSpecies: She is supposed to be a feline like everyone else, but she looks more like a lemur or a raccoon with cat ears instead.
* InSeriesNickname: Her real name was Pajalis, but everyone in-universe called her "Patches", due to her black patches of fur in her otherwise white coat.
* ItsAllMyFault: During the final issue of the "Wicked Ways" sub-arc, Patches cries since [[spoiler:she blames herself for the whole situation when Thea was kidnapped by her family, and Liska, Giles and Hesta where planning to rescue her, even if that meant having to kill Patches' father and her sisters. It took both her and Shaygin to make Liska change her mind on trying to kill her family]].
* MayDecemberRomance: [[spoiler:Despite being basically forced to marry with Liska, who at that point she was in her later 30s-earlier 40s, while Patches was at most 18, in order to rescue her daughter Thea, she really loved her and Liska reciprocated her love too]].
* TheUnfavorite: Her father and her sisters basically used her as a glorified slave in order to get free food for them

[[folder:Patches' Father]]
!!Patches' father
The [[NoNameGiven nameless father]] of Patches; he, along with his daughters, are land roamers trying to leech as much food as they can from their hosts. The things went for worst for them and his other two daughters when [[spoiler:they kidnapped Thea in order to force Liska to bring back Patches to them (see above for more details)]]
----
* DomesticAbuse: He treated Patches as a glorified slave in order to get food for him and his sisters. This is one of the reasons why Patches choose to stay in the Highland tribe and later [[spoiler:to marry with Liska]].
* FatBastard: It's more than obvious he was the one who eat the most, compared with his daughters.
* NoNameGiven: For some reason, we never knew his real name, in stark contrast with his daughters, since all of them are named.

[[folder:Sheel and Kethlyn]]
!!Sheel and Kethlyn
Patches' elder sisters, [[BigSisterBully for any value of sisters anyway]]; they, along with their father, are part of their family's schemes on getting food for free [[HoneyTrap by using their charms on all the male warriors of the Highland tribe]] including Pyndan and even Giles, much for the disgust of Thea.
----
* BigSisterBully: They don't care personally about their sister Patches and, just like their father, both girls are using her as their personal slave and also their bait in order to get food for them.
* HoneyTrap: Both girls flirt with all the male warriors of the tribe, including people with established couples like Pyndan and Giles, causing a outroar in the whole village due to their behavior.

[[folder:The Goddess]]
!!The Goddess
[[quoteright:299:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kat_goddess.jpg]]
The [[NoNameGiven unnamed]] monotheistic goddess worshipped in the planet Katmandu. Despite only appearing physically in two story arcs and being mentioned continously by almost everyone else, she plays a big role in the lives of many characters, mainly [[spoiler:Liska and Pyndan]], in a negative way.
----
* AmbiguouslyEvil:
** Many of her actions done in the comic, in hindsight, could be portrayed as pointlessly mean, and in some cases, outright evil, like [[spoiler:cursing the entire Pyndan's family just because one of his ancestors did a selfish act against a child, while it turned out the Goddess herself was impersonating an old woman following that child [[ForTheEvulz in order to lure Pyndan's ancestor]]; the only reason this part falls in the ambiguous part is because the real reason why Pyndan's, and by default, Liska and Leah's families were also affected by the same "curse", was because their families had a nasty case of Rh-incompatibility in their blood, something explained by Leah and WordOfGod in and out-universe respectively]].
** Liska got even worse, as [[spoiler:as being in the receiving end of Pyndan's "curse" wasn't enough for her, the Goddess gave her a SuicidalSadisticChoice in order for Liska to became a warrior: Becoming either a prostitute, the wife of a deadbeat abusive husband, or becoming a warrior, but dying a painful death in combat alone. Liska chose the warrior's path, which, while being the less suckiest of the three options, still caused lots of pains in her life and, in the large scale of the things, was the catalyst of a even bigger disaster that befall planet Katmandu by causing a 200-year long war between the two feline races that dominate the planet]], and, unlike [[spoiler:Pyndan]], [[UngratefulBitch neither she or any of her ancestors had anything that could had wronged the Goddess in the past, considering how Liska was pretty devote to her]].
* CrystalDragonJesus: She is basically the Abrahamic {{God}}, except being female, and having many shapes, depending of the species of the person worshipping her.
* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: According with WordOfGod, the Goddess can take the shape of any of the species that dwells the planet Katmandu.
