"I don't start fights. I finish them."
"I don't roar. I don't threaten. I end problems."
"Put the gun down. I don't want to hurt you. But I will if you
force me."
"If I can stop a man without killing him, I will. If I
can't… then may the spirits forgive us both."
"Violence is the last door I open. But once it's open, I have no
choice but to walk through it."
"People think claws and fangs make the monster. They don't.
Choices do."
"I don't need fear to protect Old Town. Respect works just
fine."
"Justice isn't a slogan. It's a responsibility. So far, you have
to be the only cop I've met so far who truly knows that."
~Kabir to Mason Fletcher when Mason proves that he's an actual
decent cop and not a corrupt one.
"The people here aren't broken. They're surviving. There’s
a difference. Old Town isn't perfect. But it's honest. That's
more than I can say for the rest of Sin City."
~Kabir on Old Town and why he sticks around there despite it's
reputation.
"You want change? Then stand where it hurts. Stand where it
matters. As for myself, I fight because someone fought for me
first."
~Kabir to a wronged young man after stopping him from doing
anything violent.
"The leopard in me wants to strike. The man in me wants to
understand. I try to let the man speak first."
"When I shift, I don't lose myself. I find the part of me that
refuses to be afraid. In other words, I'm not cursed. I'm
chosen. And I act like it without letting my pride take over my
thoughts."
~Kabir to a young supernatural hunter who thought that Kabir was
a cursed werebeast
"You picked the wrong night to test my patience."
~Kabir to a few mobster grunts who tried to attack Old Town when
Kabir was trying to have a peaceful day out smoking
Kabir: Gail, you know you don't have to do this alone.
Gail: I know. But you're here, so I'm not.
Kabir: You point me at the problem, I'll handle the rest.
Gail: Just don't break their bones unless you have to.
Kabir: You know me. I try.
~A conversation between Gail and Kabir when dealing with some
suspicious people that might be working for a unknown mafia.
Kabir: Danae, you didn't have to kill him.
Danae: He tried to kill me first. I just simply defended myself.
Besides, the world is better with people like him gone.
Kabir: You can't solve everything with a blade.
Danae: And you can't solve everything with a speech.
Kabir: I'm serious, Danae. One day your temper's gonna get you
hurt. Or worse.
Danae: Relax, little brother. I've survived worse than mobsters
with bad aim.
Kabir: sighs a bit You scare people, you know that?
Danae: Good. Fear keeps the wicked honest.
Kabir: If you ever lose control, I'll stop you.
Danae: And if you ever lose control, I'll drag your tail back.
Kabir: It's a deal then.
~Kabir and Danae back in Chicago.
"You hear that? That's him. The leopard kid Gail managed to get
on her side. If he's around, we're already screwed. Activist kid
my ass. Last time I checked, activists don't throw grown men
across alleys."
A gangster grunt on Kabir
"You ever see his eyes glow? That's when you know you messed up.
Crazy part? He doesn't even roar. He just stares at you like
he's deciding which bone to break first."
~An enemy vampire on Kabir after the severe ass whooping Kabir
gave him last time the vampire tried to attack prostitutes one
night in Old Town.
"He fights without hate. That's harder than anything I do. Not
just that, he's living proof that power doesn't have to corrupt.
I wish more people understood that."
~Danae Levesque on Kabir.
"He's young, but he’s got more backbone than most of the
men in this damn city. If the Big Cat himself says a block is
safe, it's safe."
~One of the prostitutes on Kabir.
"Kabir's the only wereleopard I know who files reports. Neat
ones, too."
~Gail jokingly on Kabir's paperwork skills.
"Listen here, pal. I've seen that kid take bullets and keep
walking like they're mosquito bites. Scares the hell out of me
sometimes. He may be a beast, sure. But he's Old Town's beast.
Our beast. Not to mention that beast has more humanity than half
of you bastards in this damn state, let alone most of the damn
country. If I ever see you or your group of poachers around here
again, we will settle this like animals. Now get out of my town
and never come back here again."
~Gail to a supernatural hunter who was sent by a mob boss to
take care of Kabir but got his ass kicked by Miho and the rest
of Gail's gang.

Demi-Werebeast Physiology:
~The user either is or can become a demi-werebeast, a hybrid of
a human and a werebeast. Kabir is a hybrid of a male wereleopard
from Southern Africa and a human woman.
Wereleopard Physiology:
~A user with this ability is able to become a Wereleopard, with
the ability to transform into a leopard or an anthropomorphic
hybrid. Unlike werewolves, they aren't particularly connected to
the moon or have any weakness for silver or their other
traditional weaknesses. The user gains the traits of
Wereleopards, most obvious being ability to change into a
leopard with the natural characteristics inherent to both
leopard and humans, including senses, stamina, agility, etc.
Environmental Adaptation:
~The user can automatically adapt to and survive any environment
and/or condition, being able to tolerate a wide range of
temperatures and levels of moisture, any amount/quality of
sustenance, breathable medium, etc. with little or no
discomfort.
Camouflage:
~The user can visually blend into surroundings by blending in
with the coloration and form of their background to avoid
optical perception. Some users can affect their attire by means
of "static camouflage." Similar to Invisibility, camouflage
sometimes involves people turning invisible but with
limitations. Some animals can naturally blend into an
environment thanks to their skin color.
Common effects is the user as well as what they are
wearing/carrying is able to stay camouflaged while moving, the
user will not cast a shadow as a result of bending light.
Often associated with a shimmer or ripple effect when moving
that can be spotted by the trained eye. The user is also able to
camouflage while staying still by changing the color and texture
of their skin and/or clothing. Whether or not the user's
clothing changes with them varies from user to user. The user
may still cast a shadow.
Bagheera Gifts:
Humbaba's Escape:
~One of the tribe's first and most valuable tricks, this Gift
allows a wereleopard to dislocate her limbs and slide through
small openings. Though the Bagheera claim that the wise cat
Humbaba invented the trick, the Simba maintain that he
originally learned it from Mouse-spirits.
Tree climber:
~As the Common Gift of the same name. Leopards excel at
climbing, and most kuasha teach this secret first.
Lawgiver's Legacy:
~In the distant past, it is said that that the Bagheera were
intended to be the arbiters of the cat-folk. The position never
materialized, but this Gift offers an edge to Bagheera trying to
exercise this ancient right with minimal force. With it, a
panther can raise her voice to drown out all others without
actually shouting, and it adds a note of command that makes even
Simba take the panther's words seriously.
Ojas Surge:
~By channeling ojas, the mystical energy inside us all, a
Bagheera can boost his physical and perceptual abilities beyond
their normal limits. To do so, he attains a posture and mediates
for a moment, then guides the ojas through his body, directing
it to whatever his needs might be.
Cobra's Dance:
~Long ago, a panther named Tola entered into negotiations with
King Snake. After weeks of discussion and debate, the two came
to an understanding of sorts. No one knows what secrets Tola
offered King Snake, but he learned this Gift as part of the
exchange. The Dance allows a cat to freeze prey with a glance.
Some old Bagheera claim to know other secrets of the serpent
folk, but if any other Gifts have survived, they're not well
known.
