Kaldra

An avatar created from the Kaldra artifacts (the Helm, Shield, and Sword of Kaldra) Glissa collected on her travels through the plane. She took the sword from Tel-Jilad early in her quest and was given the Helm when she returned there later. The Shield was found in Ish Sah, fortress of Geth, and the three parts came together to create the massive blue energy being. Kaldra helped Glissa's party fight their way out of Ish Sah and down into Mirrodin's Core. Memnarch took control of it, ordering it to get rid of Glissa and her companions, Bosh and Slobad. Bosh sacrifices itself to give Glissa and Slobad enough time to escape to the Tangle. Glissa cast a spell to bury the avatar in vines and brush, once it gets to the surface, but the spell barely helps. At that moment, the fifth sun (the green one) completes its gestation in the Core and bursts through the surface of the plane, obliterating the avatar in the process. (Mirrodin). Helm of Kaldra, Sword of Kaldra, Shield of Kaldra

Kamahl

The protagonist of the Odyssey and Onslaught blocks.

A barbarian from the Pardic Mountains, he came to the Cabal City pits looking for worthy opponents. While there, he befriended the cabal dementia summoner, Chainer, and the Krosan centaur Seton. He fought alongside Seton for the Mirari and, when it was awarded to Lieutenant Kirtar, chased it all over Otaria. In the process, he witnessed the deaths of all those who laid claim to it. He finally received it himself after it overcame Chainer, but by now realised its true menace. None-the-less, he came under its thrall on the way back to the Pardics, and it fed his deepest desires to unite the barbarian tribes under the strongest ruler. His gigantic sword, which was fabled to have been forged from Urza's power staff, gained tremendous powers after merging with the Mirari. The struggle to lead the Pardic tribes led Kamahl to committing atypically brutal acts in the Arena as the Mirari's effect took hold. Finally, after being told that she had killed his mentor Balthor, he stabbed his sister Jeska, leaving her in a permanent coma. Kamahl now renounced the Mirari and swore to destroy it. (Odyssey block)Kamahl, Pit Fighter)

Kamahl later became the Fist of Krosa, a druid acolyte. This was a way of washing his hands of his guilt from fatally wounding Jeska. He left his sword in the heart of Krosa forest and picked up a staff. However, he discovers that the Cabal has captured Jeska and transformed her into Phage. Whilst trying to bring her back, he and Phage are attacked by the angel Akroma, sent by Ixidor to destroy her. Seeing the need to deal with Ixidor first, Kamahl brings the forces of Krosa to bear against him, alongside a Cabal army under the command of Phage. The battle turns to chaos, and the war between Phage and Akroma soon threatens to overcome all of Otaria. Faced with no choice, Kamahl strikes down both Phage and Akroma, and inadvertently creates the demigod Karona. Kamahl is forced to retrieve the Mirari Sword from the heart of Krosa to destroy Karona. (Onslaught block)Kamahl, Fist of Krosa)

In the centuries that follow these events, an order of Druids calling themselves the "Kamahlites" comes to be formed in Krosa. The leaders of the order continue to use the title, "Fist of Krosa." (Card: Baru, Fist of Krosa)

Kamau

Author of Proper Passage (Card: Unseen Walker)

Kangee

Karel Volnikov

Marshal of Vodalia who travelled with his empress Galina to Atlantis (Fallen Empires)

Karli

Desert Mage (Card: Giant Badger)

Karlov, Uncle

‘Uncle’ Karlov was an Orzhov patriarch. He is succeeded by his niece Teysa Karlov. He ascended to the Obzedat (the Orzhov's leading Ghost Council) by tricking Teysa into murdering him, as suicide would have rendered him ineligible. He continued to manipulate Teysa in her dealings in the Utvara District until she discovered what he had made her do and rejected him.(Ravnica)

Karn

When Urza decided to travel back in time to meet the Thran and learn their secrets, he founded the Tolarian Academy. He guided all manner of time-travel experiments, and constructed a mechanical being who became his primary tool for gathering data. He incorporated Xantcha's personality matrix into this sentient silver golem, named Karn, so that it would learn and mature. As part of Gerrard’s Legacy, Karn was charged with protecting the child Gerrard from harm. When he was tricked into killing an innocent man, Karn vowed never to take another life, no matter what the circumstances. A large number of the Legacy’s treasure were contained within the chest of Karn, waiting for Gerrard to come of age and use them. Unfortunately, Karn was deactivated by Vuel (Volrath) with the Touchstone. Consequently the treasures were stolen and dispersed. After spending years deactivated, Gerrard rediscovered Karn, who had been found by Sisay, in the hold of the Weatherlight. With help of the Thran Tome, Karn was brought back to life. As the Weatherlight arrived in Rath to rescue Sisay, they were immediately attacked by Volrath’s own ship, the Predator. In moments the Weatherlight was overtaken by the moggs, searching for the Legacy artifacts, including Karn. Maintaining his vow to never harm another living being, Karn offered no resistance and was hauled to the Predator. Volrath imprisoned and tortured him by forcing him to break his vow never to injure or kill other beings. His cell was filled with moggs and its floor continuously undulated, causing him to stumble and roll about, crushing the creatures with his mass.

However, Karn was later rescued by the Weatherlight crew, escaping from Volrath's Stronghold. He would later go on to become an integral part of the resistance during the invasion of Dominaria, providing wisdom for the Weatherlight crew. In the end, Karn sacrifices himself, fulfilling his piece of the Legacy Weapon and, along with Gerrard and Urza, destroys Yawgmoth. However, while Gerrard and Urza were slain in the explosion, Karn ascends to Planeswalker status, absorbing the personalities of the many beings involved in the Legacy (Urza, Gerrard, Ramos, Glacien, etc), which became voices in his head. He is the only artificial being to ever achieve this feat.

Karn, as a planeswalker, created the plane of Argentum and the artifact wizard Memnarch, who later modified and renamed the plane into Mirrodin, though his presence is a mysterious one. It is known that he sent the Mirari to Dominaria as a probe, which he then uses to create Memnarch.

In the Planar Chaos novel Karn appears both as an image conjured up by the Weaver King and as the actual Golem himself. As his skills are needed to shut the planar rifts, he is summoned by Jhoira using Venser's modified ambulator. He travels back in time to just before Barrin destroys Tolaria and attempts to close the rift there. During the process some unknown evil gains control of him and he flees, warning no one to follow.

In the Mirrodin Besieged set, Karn reappears, infected by the Phyrexian ichor, as the new "father of machines," leader of the Phyrexians. His body has fused to a throne at Mirrodin's core, and his mind has fractured, making him vulnerable to the machinations of his supposed underlings.

(Card: Karn, Silver Golem, Karn Liberated)

Karona

Dubbed a "False God", Karona is a manifestation of all Dominaria's magic who rose from the fusion of the demonic queen Phage, the angelic crusader Akroma and old Zagorka.

Possessed of near-unlimited power, she was initially naive of her surroundings, constantly fleeing the hordes of the sentient beings who seemed to crave her awesome presence. Her nature as the embodiment of the plane's magic meant that, at times, it seemed she could only do things that were thought of by others.

In an attempt to find her godly kin, Karona opened up five portals, one for each color of magic, and summoned from them five important representatives of Dominaria's past (see below). Later, an attempt by the three Numena to capture her power convinced her to flee the plane entirely. While she was away, Dominaria lost all magical capabilities. She eventually stumbled upon the metal plane of Argentum, where she conversed with Karn, who advised her that she needed Dominaria just as much as it needed her. Though the magic was restored with her when she returned (though still concentrated in her), it was later found to be subtly different, setting the scene for Time Spiral.

After being weakened through the efforts of Kamahl and the Numena, she was slain by two unlikely heroes, Ixidor's rebellious shadow servants Sash and Waistcoat, with Kamahl's Mirari Sword. Upon her death, Karona was visited by Karn. He took her again to the plane of Argentum, where she was unmade and returned to her true form: Jeska, Kamahl's sister, who had previously transformed into Phage. There was no sign of either Akroma or Zagorka. Karn revealed to Jeska that she was a planeswalker, with her planeswalker spark having been ignited by her trials as Karona.

The five representatives summoned by Karona were Ixidor (white), Teferi (blue), Yawgmoth (black), Fiers (red) and Multani (green). Two hundred years later, in Time Spiral, Teferi claims no knowledge of either this event or of Karona herself, insisting that "If she says she met me, it was in a dream she had." Later, in Planar Chaos, after several trips through the space-time continuum, he does glimpse Karona, at the same time she "summoned" him.

She hid him from the Academy authorities because of their strict and final procedures for dealing with just such an incursion. He was later discovered by Karn during an experimental time/space travel and this gave the golem the information he needed to go back and undo Kerrick's eventual devastating attack on the Academy. This caused the time machine to explode. Kerrick survived, but was caught in a valley encased in an extreme-fast time bubble. Unable to escape, Kerrick used his considerable time advantage to transform the valley into a Phyrexian microcosm and was eventually able to launch a second full attack on the island.

Though he became nearly invincible and gained many supernatural abilities, his action brought about the Kami War, the spirit world's revenge for his theft. Even up to the last battle, in which O-Kagachi itself came to Konda's walls, he believed in the righteousness of his actions and had nearly the full support of his people.

She resurrected Ravidel after his death at the hands of Leshrac and Tevesh Szat, earning his eternal wrath. 1200 years after the Brother’s War she met Taysir who became her mentor.
