Kate with Axa

Kate the Black fights Axa, the god of death. Axa is a kindred like Kate, one who has been driven mad by his own immortality and increasing inhumanity. They meet in a cave burrowed by Axa himself, in which he hides and recovers from injuries sustained during battle.  His body form is altered to suit his inner psyche, and to meet self defense / survival needs. Kate, like Axa, can (either subtly or drastically) alter her own bodytype to meet certain combat criteria, like increasing muscle mass, bulk or blood flow to certain areas, hardening her skin and increasing bone density, or slimming down her frame, streamlining her body for speed or flexibility. This does not explain her poorly rendered/overly foreshortened left leg, which is both freakish and regrettable.
