## Summary

**Ky Kiske** (カイ＝キスク, *Kai Kisuku*) is a playable character in the *Guilty Gear* franchise. As one of the two leading characters (the other being his rival Sol Badguy), he is one of the most well-known characters and has been an integral part of the series since the first Guilty Gear. He is one of the Three High Kings of Illyria and a former commander of the Sacred Order of Holy Knights, as well as a man with a powerful sense of justice and devotion to God. He once had the goal of eradicating all Gears, as he believed them to be evil after fighting against them in the Crusades, but after meeting and eventually marrying the commander Gear Dizzy, he changed his stance, instead fighting for the future of all people, humans or Gears. He has a son, named Sin Kiske.

**Classification:** Human with Gear Cells, Father of Sin Kiske, Former Member of the Sacred Order of Holy Knights, King of Illyria, Christian

**Alignment:** **Neutral Good** (Ky is a religious man, the adjective describing both his devotion to God, as well as his commitment to the ideals of justice, order, and honor. Of a straightforward and serious personality, Ky is kind-hearted, charismatic, honest, diligent, polite, and believes in fair play. He is also chivalrous, being known to hold back against female opponents, and is utterly dedicated to protecting the weak. On the other hand, Ky can be notoriously inflexible and is easily disgusted by those who disturb the peace, having a complex about freedom even if he doesn't realize it. While others may mock Ky for his idealism, he has the determination to live life according to what he believes in. His dogged pursuit for justice and fairness has upset more than a few in power, as he is willing to confront his superiors if he believes them to be corrupt. Ky himself knows that his idealistic dreams can never come true, but he will try regardless. Although Ky's strong beliefs once tended to color his moral world black and white, realizing that his 'justice' was limited to human convenience and that no single truth governed everything was a significant blow to his identity. Becoming king prior to Overture also made him lose some of his zeal—his view has since broadened significantly, and has learned to see the world from the perspective of others. Initially conflicted by the appointment, the throne made Ky lose the old shine he had as a youth, but he has since increasingly defied conventions. Ky is firmly committed to the public good and to bringing hope to others, and treasures peace above all)

**Arsenal**:

* **Thunderseal:** The sword Ky currently owns. One of the Eight Sacred Treasures, weapons designed by Sol Badguy as part of Outrage, the ultimate anti-Gear weapon. It acts as a conduit for thunder magic, allowing the user to charge up energy inside the blade for release at an opportune time. By breaking it, the user can generate a localized temporal stasis field, stopping time in a short range for everyone except the user. This field can only be dismantled from the outside by powerful magic users.
* **Aquila:** A modified ceremonial sword Ky used in GG2 after breaking Thunderseal to freeze Dizzy in time. It seems to have capabilities similar to those of Thunderseal, although less powerful.
* **Magnolia Éclair:** A custom-made Illyrian sword Ky used in Xrd, replacing Aquila. It seems to have capabilities similar to those of Thunderseal, although less powerful.

**Intelligence**: One of the most powerful magicians the world over, renowned for his mastery of lightning magic, the most difficult type to learn. Extremely skilled swordsman and tactician, considered a prodigy at only age 15 and growing since that time. Very effective leader, standing at a 92% approval rating among the citizens of Illyria.

**Weaknesses**: He can be tricked due to his great honesty, kindness, and sense of justice. He also refuses to fight disarmed people and children. Dragon Install's activation seems to be conditional on stress, and the transformation lasts for a limited time and then vanishes, leaving him worn out and in pain afterwards

**Stamina**: **Infinite** (Gears provide infinite magical energy)

**Endurance**: **Average**

**Range**: Extended melee range normally, thousands of kilometers with attacks.
