Making a new thread for this as it might become a discussion. just some thoughts i have on the matter from the "What content would you like added?" thread.
to be fair, (and I'm not saying anyone is wrong here), My own character who is a Pure champion has -25.0 Holy resistance himself, gained from the Tirian Paladin Chestplate which grants -50 Holy resistance.
I think the idea is that Holy armor doesn't need to be protected against Holy weapons, because the only people who would USE Holy weapons would be other paladins / light users, meaning they would (ideally) be on the same side. Plus if your gear is designed to resist one specific type of energy (E.G.) Blight), then it might make sense to trim down the defense on an energy you're much less likely to need to deal with (E.G. Holy). For example a Fly would want to spend all it's time avoiding Frogs. Because Frogs are it's primary opponent. But that same Fly would have no reason to spend any amount of time or energy avoiding other Flies. Because they're both flies, they'd be on the same "team" in most situations.
As for the level 10, the stab, and the "Ma-", i feel like the stab and the level 10 could be explained as just her being a very powerful Paladin, and the "Ma-" could have been a lot of things. a noise of pain frustration on the same vein as "Oof" or "Urgh", an uttering of a different word like "Mother" for "Mother fucker", or maybe she IS from the world of CoC1 and is just a different character who got out a different way. Her interactions with the Minotaurs in Khor'Minos seem to suggest she's been there awhile. so I'm not sure if there's been enough time between Kas' escape from the portal and the events of Khor'Minos to establish this whole identity, even if we assume she went there immediately after being brought into the Marches, which i kind of doubt as she was pretty present up until the events of Winter City. Plus she seems to have a pretty close connection with the king, a representative of whom even comes to see her while she's being treated for the poisoned stab wound.
Under the "Her story" option of her "Talk" menu, it DOES suggest that she might have been around for the Godswar, so it's possible she's got a completely different origin, she does mention Demons attacking her city, suggesting either the Godwar, a "Mages never learn" like the Champion things, or possibly a "The Demons of Mareth attacked a Mareth city" situation.
Really the only think i can think of being suspect is Calise going after the same ring Kasyrra was apparently after for the same reason: To give to the Champion , possibly as a proposal (According to the Demon Cowgirl), which is joked about when Calise gives the champion the ring at the end of the quest. Seems sus, but it could be a coincidence or a red-herring, no idea.
Unless it's already been stated somewhere by word of god that Calise is 100% Kas and i just don't know that, in which case you can ignore the above. Just thought I'd throw in some alternate possibilities.
