W'Kabi

W'Kabi is the leader of the Border Tribe, a member of the Taifa Ngao, and a close friend of King T'Challa.

His parents were killed by Ulysses Klaue during his theft of Wakandan Vibranium.

Over time, W'Kabi became disolusioned with T'Chaka and later T'Challa's rule, due to their failure to capture Klaue.

When Eric Killmonger approached the Wakandan border with Klaue's body, as proof that he had killed him, W'Kabi allowed him into Wakanda, and became one of this loyalest supporters when N'Jadaka challenged T'Challa for the throne and defeated him, becoming the new Black Panther. He shared N'Jadaka's vision of Wakanda fighting to protect and empower black people around the world.

When T'Challa returned to stop N'Jadaka from sending weapons to the Hatut Zeraze agents around the world, W'Kabi lead the Border Tribe against T'Challa and his allies, the Jibari.

He eventually choose to surrender when he found himself facing off against his wife, Okoye, the leader of the Dora Milaje.
