Trivia

• Khora was announced in Devstream 100.
  • Khora was later also mentioned in the Ghoul Fragments.
• Khora's abilities have undergone revision during the development process due to player feedback on Damage 2.5. Initially designed to change between Physical damage types (, , & ), her finalized kit was showcased on Devstream 109 with the dependency on damage types removed.
  • As a result, Venari gained a new behavior mode selection feature.
    • Khora is the first Warframe to ever require Kavat Genetic Codes, due to Venari being a Kavat.
• The inspiration for Khora's name could come from the Greek Goddess Kore, or Persephone, Queen of the Underworld. It is also the modern name for a type of free-standing Ancient Greek sculpture portraying an emotionless maiden symbol of the ideal, transcending above the hardships of the world.
  • Another inspiration could be centered around Plato's term khôra which is neither being nor nonbeing but an interval between in which the "forms" were originally held; it "gives space" and has maternal overtones (a womb, matrix).  Which seems to be the theme of the Ghoul Journal Fragments.
    • This term used with Khora could also be a sort of pun towards Schrödinger's cat, which is a paradox of something being one thing or another (neither being nor nonbeing).
