Biography

Kif, Leela, and Amy's children.

Lieutenant Kif L Kroker is a proud officer of the Democratic Order of Planets. His race holds a position of significance in DOOP; in fact one is DOOP President. Kif serves aboard the Nimbus as first officer to Zapp Brannigan. Zapp is generally abusive towards Kif, forcing him to do a variety of demeaning tasks, such as shaving Zapp's armpits. Kif meekly tolerates this abuse, as he apparently lacks the confidence to defend himself. However sometimes Kif seeks out advice from Zapp and is called Zapp's most loyal officer and best friend.

Kif has fought in wars against the Spheroids of Spheron 1, the Spiderians of Tarantulon 6, the Decapodian's Army in their invasion of Earth and the Omicronians in the defence of Earth.

Kif seems like the ideal candidate for General of the DOOP Army, however, he often gets the blame when Zapp makes a mistake and has the credit taken from him by Zapp when he suceeds. Kif was at one point discharged from the DOOP when Zapp blamed most of his mistake on Kif.


Since they met on the Titanic (1ACV10), Kif has been in love with Amy Wong, of the Mars Wongs, though it was much longer before he got the nerve to speak to her. They have been together since their first date (3ACV01). Amy's parents seem to hate Kif although this doesn't stop Amy loving him. Ironically it was them who set them up when Zapp forced the captainship upon him after the vessel crashed.

Kif's parents are unknown, but he has hundreds of children, of whom Leela is the mother and Amy the smizmar. They are currently living in the swamps of Amphibios 9 in an immature, "tadpole" form, and will grow legs and emerge from the water in 20 years.

Family

  • Hundreds of unnamed children, of whom Leela is the mother, and Amy is the smizmar
  • It is assumed that he has around the same number of siblings, one of these sisters was briefly seen in US#014, unless Kif was lieing to Amy.

Additional Info

Trivia

  • Although Kif is some sort of amphibian, he is apparently capable of growing stubble, as seen in Brannigan, Begin Again.
  • Has no bones - is supported by a system of fluid filled bladders.
  • Can walk on walls and ceilings.
  • Has a camouflage reflex which turns him almost transparent.
  • Is actually a highly competent crewman, as evidenced during his brief stint with Planet Express.

  • Kif: It is not uncharted, you lost the chart!
