Long Live the Confederation!
Here's a piece of fan art I never expected to see: a chibi version of the Kilrathi priestess from Secret Missions 2 by DeKreteOne on DeviantArt!





This is one that is a little less than usual, but I still wanted to try. I've enjoyed the Wing Commander series since my dad showed me the games when I was a kid. The Kilrathi always stuck in my mind as such a neat villain race, and the Priestess of Sivar, one of the only female Kilrathi ever to be seen (in a cutscene in Secret Missions 2 for the first game), has remained in my mind since I first saw her.

I drew this a while back, and just got around to wrapping up the colors/shading. Even though it is a little obscure of a concept, and not everyone enjoys the idea of more than one pair of breasts, I will probably draw some more art of her when I come up with some new concepts. I liked drawing her, and exploring what she would look like under the (admittedly skimpy) outfit.

I also posted this up on my X/Twitter page, with a screenshot of the original pixel art I based this on. Go check it out if you want. Also, go play Wing Commander, it is really fun.

I have more fanart and more chibis coming soon, I'll have to make a separate fanart folder on her soon enough.

More of this kind of fun, please! Here's her original appearance from 1991:

IIRC, the only other female Kilrathi you ever see is Zu'kara (Thrakhath's sister) in the cartoons, who has pink fur for some reason...

The only other Kilrathi female I can think of anywhere in the cannon is Hassa, the Sivaran priestess in Freedom Flight. (Head canon is that she's the same priestess doing the Sivar on Firekka that gets vaporized by the marines - i.e. the one depicted earlier in this thread - though that's speculative at best and ties into the notion that Ralgha was a sleeper agent all along.)
 
Two others we see:

- The priestess from the "Sivar's Glory" TCG card - https://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/images/WCTCG_Luck_Sivar's_Blessing.png
- The nude Kilrathi female from the temple carvings in the Prophecy intro - the art is out there but it isn't safe for work!

There are a few other female Kilrathi at least mentioned! I know there are more than this but:

- The Emperor's mother (whose castle on Vukar Tag is the start of End Run)
- Thrakhath's sickly daughter mentioned in Fleet Action
- Blair sees several Kilrathi females on Melek's ship in the Wing Commander IV novelization. He notes that they're the first time he has seen Kilrathi women that aren't "on the autopsy table"... which isn't true since he met Zu'kara... (And then of course there's the concubine...)
- The ICIS manual mentions females captured in the raid on the Bloodeye pirates were turned back over to Kilrathi authorities
- Mangkrah bids his wife farewell at the party for the Shiraak crew in Voices of War
- Mar'buk writes to his mate M’rathka in the same manual (a parody of the Sullivan Ballou letter)

At the very least it's not Ellen Guon's intent since the last time we see Hassa she's preparing to fight Imperial soldiers. It could be Zukara, though--it would make sense for her to be in charge of the ceremony at Firekka.
