Presumably, accusative, since it's the object of "give". Whether you really
need a special set of possessive pronouns (like Engl. mine, yours,...ours,
theirs etc.) is another matter; though you'd obviously need some way to form
sentences like that.
Kash just uses the genitive forms of the personal pronouns, with various
complications.
