    Nooo, she must have a swahili name.

    I can offer one if you tell me her personality and background.

    Uhmmm...

    She's the kind of person that'll go into a situation without thinking it through. Other than that she keeps to herself... claiming trophys from people she has personally defeated.

    As for her background....

    *Born on Cait
    *Fascinated by the Ferasan culture (hence the warrior markings)
    *Considered an outcast by her fellow Caitains.
    *Survivor of the Undine attack on ESD
    *Survivor of the Herald attack on Starbase 234

    The S prefix stands for curious in caitian culture. Kiwa means outcast in swahili. Being an outcast seemed to be her dominant trait.

    There's nothing russian about Caitians and Ferasans. Swahili is probably the closest to the kind of language they would speak, not Russian.

    Ash, I'm curious as to where you're getting your Caitian language/culture information from. I'd love a link, if there is one. :D

    This is one site. There are a myriad of others. Remember, this is all fan-made and there is no canon source of Caitian culture.

    There is nothing Swahili about them either. You keep forgetting that cats exist all around the world, such as Siberian tigers (Russia), Indochinese Tigers (Indonesia), Cougars (America), and all the various species all through the Amazon. And verbally, Russian sounds like the closest thing to a cat-like accent.

    which is probably why the producers of beast wars gave ravage a russian accent, or at least what most think a russian accent is supposed to sound like

    Well if you want to know what it REALLY sounds like...

    or maybe this one.

    or maybe this one Hehe, this third one isn't a trailer for the movie, but a commentary on errors in the movie(among other things). It's kinda funny. :D

    the only russian accents i've ever actually heard are various ones from games like C&C red alert, red alert 2 and red alert 3, world in conflict, call of duty world at war and various others

    and the only ones i can recall offhand on TV is chekov's accent, which i understand wasn't a proper russian accent

    The first two videos don't seem to want to load, but the third one is a Russian guy speaking in Russian as he talks about the movie. Night Watch and Day Watch were good movies.

    Anyways though. Yeah Chekov's accent was way overblown. Just compare it to the guy in the video...

    of course, that was old chekov...i don't know about nu-chekov's accent, though it certainly seems a little less over-the-top

    There ain't nothing that sounds russian from any of the cats I have seen speak in this game or series.

    well, that would be because there are very few cases of caitians speaking at all...the only ones i can think of would be m'ress, whatever the one that sounds like she swallowed helium's name is, and nin yan (who isn't a caitian, but still)

    You forget the caitian private in the tutorial and the Undine mission where they destroy ESD.
    Also, Kyona's voice is different and not the helium one anymore.
