Kya Curtis

Kya Curtis is one of the major characters of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Metal Saga anime series. She is a legendary duelist and talented martial artist living in California, USA where she runs a butcher shop with her husband, Ben.

She is also the former Dueling teacher of Evan Hatake, Miles Rogers, Cazz McKnight, and Shark Unabara, giving them guidence when they needed it the most.

Physical Appearance
Kya is a rather attractive and deceptively young-looking woman despite being middle-aged. She is fairly tall and fair-skinned with dark-eyes, a slender frame with a curvaceous yet well-toned figure, and upperback-length black hair worn in box braids. On the left side of her collarbone is a black cross tattoo. She normally wears a long white collared-blouse with a flowing backside, form-fitting grey pants reaching her ankles, and opened-toed sandals that have the letters "W.C." on them.

Personality
Although Kya takes apparent pride in being a simple housewife and introduces herself as such to anyone who asks, her attractive and humble exterior belies a fearsome and deadly disposition such that Evan, Miles, Cazz and Shark become terrified at the mere thought of aggravating her. She is prone to swift acts of violence and is often seen dealing out physical harm, but despite her frequently aggressive nature, Kya is a remarkably caring, wise and perceptive individual always willing to help those in need, especially children. That being said, she is also a great advocate of helping people to make their own way and will usually only intervene on behalf of those with the will-but not the means-to help themselves. Additionally, Kya appears to greatly enjoy travel (a trait she may have passed on to Evan), as many of her appearances in the series find her journeying outside her hometown.
