==History==
Kul Katura and his sibling, the Serpent of Gallowmere, were once objects of worship. [[Dragons]] of old built the [[Dragon Gate]] in their image.{{Gameref|MED2019}}{{Gameref|MED2019|Book in The Gallows Gauntlet}} The Serpent of Gallowmere was jealous of his brother however, which eventually made him turn on their followers.{{Gameref|MED2019-Bestiary|Serpent of Gallowmere}} King Peregrin hoped to trap the evil Serpent within a magical chest, but managed to trap Kul Katura instead.{{Gameref|MED2019-Bestiary|Kul Katura the Serpent Lord}} Other accounts suggest Zarok himself trapped the mighty lord..{{Gameref|MED2019|Book in Scarecrow Fields}} Regardless, [[Sir Dan]] freed Kul Katura in 1386, who subsequently aided him in battle.
==Gameplay==
Kul Katura serves as a temporary ally for a short amount of time after being released. He will generally try to target enemies near Dan and can follow him into interiors such as the barn in the Scarecrow Fields.

Originally, Kul Katura was supposed to be summoned by picking up the [[Serpent Potion]] rather than opening up a chest.{{Gameref|Rolling-Demo}} This was eventually changed during the game's development.

====''MediEvil: Resurrection''====
An unused book found in file '''00736.LTR''' in [[cambridge:gamedata.bin|gamedata.bin]] suggests Kul Katura was set to appear in the game:
{{Q|Beyond lies Kul Katura, Lord of the Serpents, greatest snake to ever slither across the earth.<br>The humanoid known as Zarok has imprisoned him in a tiny chest.<br>Release him and you will not find him ungrateful.<br>P.S. Hurry, he's getting a cricked neck.}}

In the original ''MediEvil'', Kul Katura is said to have been trapped in a chest by [[Zarok]]. However, this is changed to be King Peregrin's men in the [[MediEvil (2019)|remake]]'s Book of Gallowmere. Despite this, the book in Scarecrow Fields still says it was Zarok who trapped him.
