Kalina

Kalina is named by Sklonda as the partner of her late husband Pok in a photograph S2E2b·01:05:50. Sklonda explains that she does not mean a romantic partner, but a colleague from his deep undercover work in the foreign service S2E2b·01:05:58. Most of the party cannot see anybody in the photo, but Sandra Lynn sees a tabaxi woman in a dress S2E2b·01:06:05 S2E2b·01:06:40.

Kalina is a black-furred tabaxi woman, the partner of Riz's father Pok, whom Riz guesses you have to have seen before to see her S2E2b·01:05:50 S2E7·00:10:14 S2E7·00:10:19. In the photo of Pok she is invisible to most of the party, but Riz, Tracker, Sandra Lynn and Ragh can see her S2E7·01:27:49. Adaine asks Garthy about the name next to the Shadow Cat, and he does not know it S2E5·01:24:53.

She works for the Nightmare King as the Shadow Cat and warns the party off, S2E6·02:03:09. She tells them, "Don't keep looking for the crown or we are going to kill every last one of you." S2E6·02:18:42. She tells Aelwyn in a memory that her mother is working for her and has brought the crown to Sylvaire S2E11·00:42:12. She threatens the party at the threshold, saying "I want you to stay out of that fucking forest." S2E12·02:00:50 S2E12·01:59:03 She later appears in a mirror and in Riz's mind, telling him "You were born with me" and that she is like his godmother S2E14·01:09:53 S2E14·00:29:10. She is also described as an illusion curse, the familiar that was turned into plague S2E17·02:22:52.

She attacks Kristen and offers a deal, and says Kristen's crystals were smashed and the kid's photo left ripped on the forest floor S2E17·00:21:05 S2E17·00:21:32. In the finale she is the main enemy, with many illusion abilities, and she knocks Ayda out S2E20·02:31:29 S2E20·02:34:34. Her last words to Riz are "Kid, it doesn't have to be this way." and Riz kills her S2E20·03:31:43 S2E20·03:31:51.

She works for the Nightmare King as the Shadow Cat and warns the party to stop looking for the crown or she will kill every last one of them S2E6·02:03:09 S2E6·02:18:42. She threatens the party at the forest threshold S2E12·02:00:50, tells Riz "You were born with me" S2E14·01:09:53, and attacks Kristen with illusions S2E17·00:21:05. In the season 2 finale she is the main enemy and knocks Ayda out S2E20·02:31:29 S2E20·02:34:34. Her last words to Riz are "Kid, it doesn't have to be this way." and Riz kills her S2E20·03:31:43 S2E20·03:31:51.

In season 3 a black cat fades into view and says "Hi, Kristen." S3E3·02:01:03. Kalina is back in cat form on Cassandra's lap, telling Kristen Applebees she is not bad anymore, while Cassandra says Kalina is bound to serve her as her familiar S3E4·00:07:06 S3E4·00:07:21 S3E4·00:07:52. She tells Kristen that only two people would need to die for her and her goddess to stop existing, Kristen and Craig, and points out the new mall in the Synod of Spyre as a place to find mortals S3E4·00:10:21 S3E4·00:18:06. She takes humanoid form at the mall and is horrified when Cassandra collapses with red crystal shards in her chest S3E4·02:33:08 S3E4·02:38:24. In a preview clip she tells Riz "Sticking up for me, just like your old man." S3E4·02:42:11.

At the mall fight a shatter-star's smoke and light go into her mouth and she chokes out "Ragh Barkrock!" S3E5·01:08:37, and then, with her yellow eyes gone red, she tells Cassandra "I liked you better as the Nightmare King" and slits her throat S3E5·01:15:20. Riz later puzzles over why Kalina said Ragh's name S3E6·00:02:00 S3E7·02:00:03. Riz has a photo of his dad and Kalina, and Aelwyn says Kalina needed a curse at the end of freshman year to work with some contacts S3E11·00:18:00 S3E11·01:43:03 S3E11·01:43:07. In Baron's Game, green slitted eyes and cat fangs eat Fig's illusory double, and Brennan says it looked like Kalina S3E12·00:17:19 S3E12·00:17:47. After Fig reaches out to Cassandra, Kalina has a moment of clarity and breaks her own neck, saying "It's the only name I can say", and vanishes S3E12·01:27:40 S3E12·01:27:54.
