Kiba Inuzuka

Kiba Inuzuka is a werewolf in Valhalla.

## Appearance

Kiba is short and stocky with dark brown hair and small yellow eyes. He often dresses in black and gray leather and enjoys wearing coats and furs.

In his wolf form, Kiba is about as large as a direwolf with brown fur and yellow eyes.

## Personality

Kiba is very crass and abrasive, and generally very blunt about what he's thinking about and pouring tons of foul language into his sentences. He's stubborn and hot-headed, and tends to jump into a fight without a plan, which sometimes causes friction with his teammates. He is fearless and loves fighting, in practice battles or for real. He can fight with his cutting words and sharp claws with equal efficiency. Kiba is also shown to carry grudges that sometimes only get worse with time. He also pursues some borderline hedonistic pursuits and is not afraid to engage in excessive PDA with David, especially if it also makes rival einherjar uncomfortable.

Despite his general abrasiveness, Kiba has a softer, more vulnerable side, particularly concerning his friends David and Victoria. He is also fiercely loyal to his friends on Floor 18, as well as the Godhunters. Because of this, many of his friends do not mind his hardened, sardonic exterior.

Kiba smokes cigars. He is also very mistrustful of monster hunters, unless its proven to him that they are trustworthy.

## Biography

### Mortal Life

Kiba was bitten by a werewolf at an early age, and the same werewolf killed his father and also turned his mother. His mother raised Kiba by herself until she was killed by crazed bloodhunters, leading Kiba is mistrust most monster hunters unless they proved themselves trustworthy.

As he grew older, Kiba learned to control his werewolf transformations and sought to use them to right the world's wrongs. He wandered across midnight, killing deranged killers, serial rapists, and otherworldly monsters he'd encounter. On one particular night, Kiba came across a coven of vampires trying to drain a woman's blood. He attacked them and fought them off so she could escape. He was killed by the vampires, but he was chosen by Victoria Weiss to be an einerhji.

### Pre Godhunter

Kiba, along with his boyfriend David Aldertree, often accompanied their Valkyrie and friend Victoria on her missions to Midgard as backup. When the mission was completed, they made a camp for the night, planning to travel back to Valhalla in the morning. However, during the night, David was captured by Loki, who left ridiculously convoluted clues for Kiba and Victoria that eventually led them to a cave, where they rescued David.

In the month following the mission, Kiba noticed that David wasn't acting like himself and pulling away from the rest of their group. While he initially gave him space, one night Kiba found David crying, and David confessed that Loki had raped him when he was captured. This pushed Kiba's hatred for Loki over the edge.
