Jivatma (ジヴァートマ) is the main antagonist and final boss of KOF: Maximum Impact 2.
He is voiced by Kyouzou Kudou and Kevin Cummings.
Development
His normal model was designed to evoke the impression of a cockroach, while his Another model became a moth to contrast the butterfly for Luise Meyrink. When asked about Jivatma's female Another design, Falcoon states that it was created near the end of Jivatma's development. The design was made partially due to the gender ambiguity of Jivatma's Japanese vocal performance and an off-hand comment by Ureshino about the character's overall design. He nicknamed her "Hermes".
Story
Known to some by his epithet, "the Dark Talon", Jivatma is the leader of Kusiel, a sub-syndicate of Addes, and one of the Children of Kokaviel, Addes' top leaders. Other than this, his origins and history are veiled in mystery. He was Duke's boss until Duke became leader of his own sub-syndicate of Addes, Mephistopheles. He has frightening abilities, using a fighting style he boasts as punishment to the weak.
Jivatma is also connected to Alba, Soiree, Duke, Nagase, Lien, and Luise. He calls Alba and Soiree Meira, "Judeim", a being who is currently unknown and shrouded in mystery, and can activate "Eudaim's/Judeim's" presence in the two Meira brothers. He is responsible for Soiree's disappearance, although it is believed that Soiree may return in the third game, possibly as a villain. He refers to Duke and Nagase as Type "D" and Type "N" respectively, recognizing them as humans who have been modified by Jalange, Addes' surgeon. Jivatma ordered the death of Lien's parents and family because her father would not join Addes.
