History

 * ''Main article: w:c:soulcalibur:Kilik/New Timeline'

An orphaned monk raised at the Ling-Sheng Su temple. He becomes a victim of the Evil Seed, but his adoptive sister Xianglian sacrifices herself to save him from the fate of insanity at the cost of her own. Because Xianglian removed her Dvapara-Yuga mirror from herself, she was Malfested and driven to insanity by the seed and Kilik was forced to kill her in self-defense. After being trained by the Edge Master, Kilik sets out alongside Xianghua and Maxi to find and destroy Soul Edge.

Family

 * Xianglian - adopted sister, deceased

Weapons

 * Kali-yuga (Rod)

Weakness

 * Evil Seed: Kilik can turn into a Malfested. Edge Master explains that, should Kilik ever succumb to despair and lose his will to live, he would become a slave to Soul Edge; and trains him to control the darkness within him.
 * Kali-Yuga: Kilik is overwhelmed by bloodlust if he holds the Kali-Yuga staff without the mirror belt on his shoulder at the same time (the Dvapara-Yuga), as the Kali-Yuga is infested with the Malfested energy of the Evil Seed and would turn into a second Soul Edge unless suppressed. However, thanks to training with Edge Master for three years — he can turn into his Malfested form at will without succumbing to madness.

Portrayal
Kilik is voiced by Soichiro Hoshi (Hoshi Soichiro).
