To what species does Kitche belongs ? It comes from GW2, doesn't it ? I saw a doodle of her (i remember you calling her a daughter, so i assume her is good) on Mahva's head, so i guess it is :>

Well she’s not a species from GW2 per se, but she is canonically in that universe!

She’s one of Skena’s minions, and she was made of a variety of dead things. Mahva was the one who designed her, when Skena offered to make a minion for him; 

He started with a few small random sketches of whatever came to mind, winged creatures for the most part, before moving on to a larger sketch of a more finalized design. 

The creature had the skull of a fox with some gleaming light coming from the empty sockets. The skull itself had designs painted on it, intricate and detailed markings. It had a fluffy ruff of feathers around its neck, and a sleek furred body that stood upright on a set of raptor-like legs. A smaller diagram showed the raised talons to have venom glands like those of platypus spurs. Its arms were large feathered wings that folded upon its back, with gripping thumbs similar to a bat’s. It had a long, ridiculously fluffy tail as thick as the creature’s body, which his notes showed to be fully prehensile. Other notes described things he wanted it capable of: Speech, flight, and mimicry, along with the intelligence and problem-solving capabilities crows have been shown to possess.

Mahva isn’t a necromancer and so he does not control nor maintain Kitche, but she acts as some weird variation between a companion animal and a daughter. In theory, she’s built to be capable of useful things like flying packages from A to B or assisting somewhat in combat, but so far she’s lived the life of a spoiled brat instead.

Skena: “Do you want me to make you a minion?”
Mahva: “Oh that would be very useful, thank you. Let me think of a design for it that will incorporate the uses I have in mind…”
Skena: “Here it is.”
Mahva: *Instantly falls in love and never uses her for anything useful*

No seriously, he paints her talons and tells her how pretty she is and she eats it up.

fuck yeah she eats it up she is the embodiment of skena’s affection for mahva and here she is, getting her nails did by The Man Himself, she’s in heaven
