Kuva Lich/Quotes

Each Kuva Lich possesses one of two personality types (logical or jovial) which determine what quotes they use.^{[citation needed]}

Kuva Larvling Spawn

These voice lines are spoken by Kuva Guardians when a Kuva Larvling is about to spawn.

• You are the Queen-chosen, soldier. Greatness awaits you. Greatness... or perhaps death.
• Inform the Queens we have found their sukjekkt.
• Sukjekkt found. In her name.
• Queens will not be pleased. Clone rot has gone too far. Send word.
• Soldier, you have been nominated. Your glory awaits in her fortress.

Killing the Larvling

• Sukjekk secured. Removing from battlefield. Peezporr enkkaagge kraaft!

Birth of Kuva Lich

Jovial

• The poison is in the dose, Friend. Whatever it was, turns out I'm partial to it. FEELING GOOD!
• Do you have any idea what it takes to reattach severed limbs? You will.
• Time for a thermal facelift!
• It isn't that you immolated me. It isn't that I died. No, it's that now, the only thing I can smell is PORK.
• You might have forgotten the first time we met, but I've still got the third degree burns.

Logical

• I have been bisected, dissected, autopsied, upgraded... the line between who I was and what I am erased and redrawn more times than I have bothered to record.
• Flames kill some... forge others.
• I burned. I learned.
• With the addition of your toxin, my body has become a laboratory. In it I develop new miracles. I open gateways... to death.
• Your poison did not kill, I evolved. You are no poisoner. You lie. You are a lie.

After Logging In

Jovial

• Are you ignoring me, Tenno? You bruise my feelings.
• I've been taking time to work on...me.
• You are dead already. I know it. The System knows it. My fifteen friends who are betting on it, know it.
• Yoohoo! Snickety-snack, guess who's back!

Logical

• Think, Adversary. Fathom me. Find me. And die.

In Kuva Lich Profile

Jovial

• You know, as I watched you hack my limbs off, I thought to myself... "I really don't like this person."
• Friend! It's been too long.
• Friend, Friend, Friend. We keep meeting like this.
• You tore me to pieces, Tenno. That wasn't very nice.
• I think they're scared. Comrades, are they scared? I think they're scared.
• The next time you drop someone at death's door? Knock.
• Death... it's overrated, really.
• Naughty, naughty.
• I'm alive. Alive! Oh. Oh, Tenno. You have no idea what you have brought down upon your head.
• You tore me limb from limb. But I've pulled myself together since then. Hah.
• You can't kill me if you keep hitting me in the bits I've had replaced.
• Wakey wakey!
• Do you have any idea what it takes to reattach severed limbs? You will.
• I am the hunter, you are the prey. That's how this works, questions?
• Word of advice: when you kill someone, make sure it takes!
• Nice helmet. I'll use it to serve dip.

Logical

• I am of the old blood. We do not die, foolish Adversary.
• Your dismemberment of me has not resulted in a conventional outcome.
• You can no more resolve a solution for the equation I represent than a kubrow might fathom a card trick.
• My primate ancestors attempted to fell the moon by hurling stones at it. Your attempts to fell me are no different. You have been... out-evolved, Adversary.
• I can wait forever, Adversary. But I won't.
• The dismemberment you subjected me to was not my first.
• I see you, Adversary, and I adapt.
• Your murder of me is now redefined as your attempted murder of me.
• Think, Adversary. Fathom me. Find me. And die.
• Arms. Legs. Organs. There is nothing you can take from that I cannot replace. No Hell you can consign me to from which the blood of the Queens cannot retrieve me.

Navigating controlled sectors in the Star Chart

Jovial

• Mine. Sector's a dump, but it's my dump.

Completing a Mission on an affected Node

Jovial

• Wallet feeling a little light, Friend? Heh heh heh heh.

• Adversary: I have taken my tithe, as is my right as holder of this Sector.
• I take your coin as easily as I take your life, your power, your joy.
• Tithe accepted. You may go.

General

Jovial

• Oh no, you don't. Get back here and take what's coming to you.
