Princess Kiya ( File:KiyaHiero.png ) is a major protagonist and Dan's love interest in MediEvil 2.
Story
Background
At the age of 19, Kiya was selected by the Pharaoh Ramesses to be one of his 200 wives. Fortunately for her, he was very old and died before he was able to consummate the marriage. Unfortunately, she was selected to "accompany" him on his journey to the afterlife as his bride through eternity. In 1817, many of Ramesses' possessions, including the contents of Kiya's tomb, were recovered from a tomb at Abu Simbel and brought to Europe, where they were eventually placed in the Great Museum.
MediEvil 2
Daniel saves Kiya from her tomb in The Museum while looking for clues in Kensington. When she awakens, she's a little startled to discover that she's dead. She falls out of her coffin and is caught by Daniel as she falls. He then takes her to the Professor's lab.
During the Dankenstein level, Kiya helps the professor build a monster to fight in a match against the Iron Slugger. The main prize of the match was to be Kiya herself. Daniel manages to win the battle and she remains with Dan and the professor.
Later in the game, she insists on investigating Whitechapel, but Dan tells her not to since he thought it was too dangerous for her. Kiya decides to go anyway, and doesn't return. The professor sends Dan to search for her. When Daniel finally finds her, he sees Jack the Ripper attack her and kill her. Saddened and enraged by the sudden turn of events, Daniel finds a way to travel back through time and manages to fight the killer in order to save her. After Jack's defeat, Kiya and Dan share a passionate kiss. After Palethorn is defeated, Dan and Kiya board the Time Machine and leave London behind.
MediEvil: Fate's Arrow
During their journey through time, Dan and Kiya are separated. With the help of the fairy Noreen, Dan gets to see Kiya one last time in her tomb. Kiya left behind a letter for Dan where she details her fight against a warlock bent on summoning Anubis to the mortal world. She also leaves Dan a gift in the form of an eye prosthetic.
