the daughter of the mercenary Gregor Uth Matar and Rosamun of Solace. She idolised her father, and was devastated when he left for a campaign and never returned. In her teens she raised her half-brothers Caramon and Raistlin and left to find some trace of her father. Her adventures led her into the midst of a mercenary band where she developed a taste for fighting and the mercenary life. On returning she journeyed with the Companions for several years and had various misadventures. During this time, she also fell in love with Tanis Half-Elven and had a tempestuous relationship with him. She departed Solace with Sturm Brightblade upon which adventure she seduced him and had a child, Steel Brightblade, by him. She never let Sturm know of the child and left the babe in the care of a nursemaid, Sara Dunstan. Kit met up with Ariakas and with dreams of power and conquest in her head, joined the warlord and his great army. Kitiara excelled as a warrior in his army and was soon the head of the Blue Dragonarmy. Her mount was a fierce blue dragon called Skie who was wholly loyal to her. During the war years, Kit was known as the 'Blue Lady', and distinguished herself as a brilliant tactician and one of the most powerful Dragon Highlords, second only to Ariakas. With powerful allies, like Skie and Lord Soth at her side, she was also practically invincible. When the dragonarmies were shattered by the Whitestone forces at the temple of Neraka, Kitiara was the only Dragon Highlord to retain control of her army and fight free of the chaos. She then strengthened her army over the next couple of years and led them in a conquest known as the 'Blue Lady's War' against Palanthas. Her forces beseiged Palanthas and she entered the Tower of Palanthas, with the intent of aiding her brother Raistlin defeat Takhisis. During the final battle in the Tower, Dalamar cut down Kitiara, and Soth briefly claimed her soul. However her soul was released and escaped into the Gray. Skie searched long for his beloved Kitiara but as yet has not found her, nor has the equally infatuated Lord Soth. Both hope to claim their Dark Lady, whose soul is currently lost in the mists.
