Kivat-Bat the 2nd (キバットバットⅡ世, Kibattobatto Nisei)[note 1] is the 2nd generation of the Kivat-Bat Family, and Kivat's father.
History[]
As the King's partner, he infuses him with the power of Kiva. However, unlike his son, Kivat-Bat the 2nd controls a lot more Demonic Power that enables Kamen Rider Dark Kiva to fight at his utmost limit. Eventually, disgusted with his partner's methods, Kivat-Bat the 2nd offers Otoya Kurenai his power to become Dark Kiva.
Kivat-Bat the 2nd later appears in present day to forge a pact with Taiga Nobori, making him the new Dark Kiva.
Kamen Rider Gotchard[]
Kivat the 2nd's powers were copied by Saigetsu, allowing him to transform into Kamen Rider Dark Kiva.
Personality[]
Unlike his son who is generally kind, friendly and goodhearted towards others, Kivat-Bat the 2nd is often calm, quiet, merciless and arrogant like his former partner. He is also somewhat bloodthirsty as he revealed during Jiro, Ramon and Riki's confrontation with the Fangire King. He even questioned why his partner didn't kill Ramon. Even when he switched sides, Kivat-Bat the 2nd was the one who suggested for Otoya to use his power when it would surely kill him. He does however, have a sense of honor as shown to his reaction when Otoya referred to him as the servant of the Fangire King. He also seemed to have an attachment to Maya which eventually led him to helping Otoya. He also easily accepted Kivat-Bat the 3rd as his son from the future. When about 22 years had passed, Kivat-Bat the 2nd decided to help Taiga when he saw how much sadness and sorrow Taiga had at the time, although it should be noted that he may have done it out of twisted reasons rather than pity.
His favorite quote is "Thank you!" (ありがたく思え！, Arigataku omoe!) and his catchphrase is "Extinction time!" (絶滅タイムだ！, Zetsumetsu taimuda!).
