Lore
Kitava is the Karui god of chaos, hunger, and corruption. According to Karui tradition, Kitava is a cannibal deity with boundless hunger. Like the other gods of Wraeclast, Kitava's abilities are restricted by the Beast (which was destroyed by the player in Act 4).
According to Utula, Kitava is also known as The Black Spirit, The Cannibal King, The Ravenous One or The Tormented One. His official deity title is the Father of Corruption.
- Upon entering The Aqueduct, the Marauder says, "'Follow a dead river to the foot of Kitava's kingdom.' Just how the elders at home told it."
- Upon entering The Mines Level 1, the Marauder says, "I walk in your kingdom, Kitava, and I am coming for you."
- Upon entering The Mines Level 2, the Marauder says "Kitava's belly rumbles. He is hungry for me."
- Upon entering The Belly of the Beast, the Marauder says, "The way to a god's heart is through his guts."
- Upon killing Malachai, The Nightmare, the Marauder says, "Do you hear me, Kitava?! Your champion is dead, and your kingdom dies with him!"
- Navali's "Karui Gods" dialogue option concludes, "And in the final days of this world, Kitava, whose hunger know no bounds, will take it all away."
- Haku's "The Karui Way" dialogue option says in part, "Yet the Ancestors cannot tell me how Kitava's tyranny might end. Only that it will, if we who still can, stand against Him. It is in this hope that I choose to live. Hope is my fortress, and from it I wage war against Kitava's slaves."
- Haku's "Kaom" dialogue option says in part, "Kitava, God of Corruption, consumed Kaom from heart to skin. Kaom became the greatest of Kitava's slaves when he abandoned his people to serve himself."
- Haku's "Kitava" dialogue option says, "It is Kitava who rules this place. His Black Spirit is everywhere, in the claws that draw our blood, in the minds of those men and women who... would eat of our flesh. At first I thought it was Kaom who led the God of Corruption to this land. No. Kitava was already here, and he remains here still. A cannibal, feasting on the corpse of Wraeclast. He awaits us all, growing fat in the darkness of Wraeclast's blackened heart."
- Haku's "The Karui and Wraeclast" dialogue option says in part, "Though the signs led me to believe that it was the Eternals who invited Kitava into Wraeclast, we Karui had a hand in humanity's downfall here. ... So we must right the wrongs of our past, and wake this land from Kitava's nightmare. Only then will the debt be repaid."
- Haku's "Catarina, Master of the Dead" dialogue option says, "Catarina is Kitava's slave, preparing pretty feasts for a cannibal God."
- When Haku reaches level 5, he says in part, "Had I the tools at hand, I would carve the mark of Kitava, Father of Chaos, into your flesh."
Environmental Lore
- A Weathered Carving in Kaom's Dream, says in part, "We crushed the servants of Kitava beneath our heels as we marched across the land."
- A Weathered Carving in Kaom's Stronghold says in part, "The Eternals opened the gate and invited Kitava into this land. The Karui paid the price. Kitava cut us off from the Ancestors, raised the remembed as His children, tortured our dreams. Kitava murdered the Karui Way. I will found a new Way, for I have been chosen. I gather my forces so that I might wage war on Kitava."
- Another carving in Kaom's Stronghold says in part, "Kitava has soaked this land in his filth.... Your spirits will fight by my side when we march against Kitava."
- In The Reliquary (Act 5), there is environmental lore to further explain Kitava's boundless hunger.
- In The Chamber of Innocence, "Triumph of Innocence" claims Innocence drove Kitava away, but the author of the Triumph, High Templar Avarius is the vessel of Innocence himself.
