Krallet
this was a common name given to male Duros children. The name Krallet referred to a serpent that was once native to the planet Duro. (GCG)

Kram Ayuk
this male Gran was a member of the RavinsBlud syndicate during the years leading up to the Battle of Naboo, and was also a death sticks dealer who worked for Sebolto. A bounty was issued for his capture by the Coruscant police force, in connection with the rise in death stick distribution that occurred on the planet during the years following the Battle of Naboo. The bounty was claimed by Jango Fett, when the bounty hunter traveled to Malastare to meet with Sebolto. (BH)

this Dug was a noted crimelord on his homeworld of Malastare, during the years following the Battle of Naboo. (BH)

Kram, Stiv
this man was the leader of the rebellious miners who worked on Katanos VII during the last years of the Old Republic. He had seen his people grow poorer as their mines dried up, then witnessed the problems that the Republic had in supplying aid to remote worlds while trying to keep the Grand Army of the Republic ready for battle. In a desparate attempt to generate revenues, Kram and his most senior technicians tried to develop cloning activity, but their work only ended in failure. Word of their clandestine cloning activities reach the Jedi Order, which dispatched Master Lunis and his apprentice, Obs Kaj, to investigate. Although Kram initially denied the cloning, Obs discovered the hidden lab and its failures. Kram was forced to protect his people, and severed all communications with the rest of the galaxy. He then forced the Jedi to surrender, in order to turn them in to Count Dooku for the bounty on their heads. Although Lunis was killed, Obs managed to escape to her ship, which was shot down by Dooku's forces in orbit. Because only Lunis' body was recovered, Dooku only paid half the bounty he had promised, leaving Kram and the mining operation without enough credits to survive. Kram ordered the miners to flee Katanos VII and hide out, in order to save their lives. (T19)

Krane
this tough Alliance Commander was known for his ability to think like an Imperial pilot. He demanded only the best from his pilots, and gave them little leeway in their performance reviews. Krane believed that the only way the Alliance would prevail was if it acted as a precision fighting force. He specialized in training Alliance pilots to fly captured TIE Fighters, for special missions as well as to give Alliance pilots a sense of the Imperial pilot's perspective. His team worked hard to capture intact TIE Fighters for their own use. (RA2)

Krann
this planet is located in the four-star Opiteihr System, and is a humid, densely-jungled world. Because the four stars that dominate the system are all red giants, Krann is continually bathed in an eerie, blood-red light. This has led to the evolution of plants which have deep black leaves which soak up all available light, an ebon carpet known as the Black Jungle. The planet is ost famous for its nova crystals, which were harvested for the Empire by the native Kluuzot in order to fund the first Death Star project. The average day on Krann lasts 31 standard hours, though its year lasts only 162 local days. (TSK)

Krann System
located near the Merren Sector, this star system is the next stop on the Harrin Trade Corridor after the Brevost System. (TSK)

Krant
this planet, located at the heart of the Both System, was the homeworld of the Krantian people. During the early stages of the Clone Wars, Krant was the site of a Separatist manufacturing facility that produced the Decimator weapon, until the facility was destroyed by the Grand Army of the Republic. Because there were few natural predators on the planet, Krant was colonized by the Empire shortly before the Battle of Yavin. The trees of Krant were beautiful to behold, having multicolored bark that literally glowed in the sunset. These trees dropped their leaves twice a year, making for wondrous displays of foliage coloration. During the Galactic Civil War, the Bothans used outposts on Krant as nodes along their spy network until Moff Yittreas took command of the planet. (GB, GBC)

Krantian
this alien race, native to the planet Krant, was subjugated by the Empire during the early stages of the Galactic Civil War. They were freed from Imperial control by the combined efforts of Leia Organa and Echuu Shen-Jon. (GB)

this droid control unit was developed by Industrial Automaton for use in the AG9 series of data storage and retrieval droids. The superprocessor allowed the A9G series to perform incredibly fast data collection and collation. Note that this is referred to as a Kraken XI Superprocessor in the Truce at Bakura Sourcebook. (TBSB, SWJ14, FTD)

Kras'dohk
this Trandoshan was one of the few members of his race to exhibit a sensitivity to the Force. He was taken as an infant to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant more than 100 years before the onset of the Clone Wars, and was trained as a Jedi Knight. Kras'dohk eventually attained the rank of Jedi Master, but chose to break with the Jedi Order because of what he believed was the stagnation of the Order. While traveling the Outer Rim, Master Kras'dohk discovered the talents of the Kaminoan female Kina Ha, and took her as an apprentice. They traveled the Outer Rim and trained with each other for several decades, until Kras'dohk died of old age. Kina Ha continued his work, and traveled the Outer Rim for nearly 100 years before returning to Kamino. (GORW)

Krasho Salt Rifts
this rocky canyon, denoted by the slat pans and encrustations that cover much of its surface, was located on the planet Sarafur. Although the area appeared flat from orbit, the Krasho Salt Rifts were actually littered with crystalline formations and skeletal fossils that could tear a starship's hull apart. It was believed that the fossils in the Rifts were those of huge sea creatures that died when the planet suddenly became tidelocked to its star, an event that dried out the seas in a matter of months or yeears. It was rumored that a Killik member of the ancient Sith traveled to Sarafur and eventually died there, leaving a tomb behind which was strongly imbued with the Dark Side of the Force. Jilst Bindalin later traveled to Sarafur to locate the tomb, bringing with him the Alsakan Tessent. Both were supposedly lost in the Krasho Salt Rifts. During the early years of the New Republic, the Kintan Gunrunners established their base of operations in the canyons, which were located just on the sun side of the planet's tidelocked surface. (GMR9)

Kras'ka Lo'lar
this Bothan male was a member of the security police force on Bothawui, during the height of the Galactic Civil War. (EGA)

Krasov Hara
this Barabel was a hatchmate of Tesar Sebatyne and Bela Hara, although the two females claimed that they were twins but not sisters. One of the twins shared the same father as Tesar, but it was impossible to tell which one. All three trained with the Wild Knights, under the tutelage of Tesar's mother, Master Saba Sebatyne, before joining Luke Skywalker and his Jedi Knights during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of the galaxy. The three hatchmates shared a deep, jovial bond, and often shared a sissing kind of laughter at one of their many in-jokes. The three students joined the Jedi strike team which was dispatched to Myrkr, in an effort to locate and destroy the voxyn queen. Once aboard the Baanu Rass, Krasov and the Jedi were beset by a number of voxyn, all intent on protecting their queen. One voxyn attacked Krasov and Anakin Solo, spewing Krasov with acidic vomit. Despite the best efforts of the healer Tekli, Krasov died of her wounds. (SBS)

Krass
this Trandoshan bounty hunter was sent by the Hutts to capture Elwis Bontraar, during the last years of the Old Republic. While his primary objective was the capture of the "kidnappers" and the recovery of Jennalyn Bontraar, his Hutt employers implanted a device which would allow Krass to alert them to set a back-up plan in motion in case of failure. Krass attended the Galactic Costume Extravaganza aboard the Bontraar yacht Masquerade, dressed as an Ithorian. He was contacted by the freelance agents who were trying to rescue Jennalyn Bontraar from Zascha, and, having been told that the agents were really the kidnappers, set up an ambush to capture them. His plans failed, however, as the agents were able to locate Jennalyn before they fell into his trap. (WOA22)

Krass, Harper
this former terrorist worked for Black Sun on the planet Coruscant during the final years of the Old Republic, until he was forced to go underground to avoid arrest. He decided to hide out in one of the abandoned cities on Vulpter, hoping to eventually extend Black Sun's influence into the Deep Core. However, Krass was pursued to Vulpter by agents of the Republic Judicial Department who had been alerted to his presence by the Trade Federation. The Federation revealed his location out of fear that he might try to damage their operations on Vulpter. He was eventually brought to justice, but told stories of ghosts and other evil powers lurking in the city. (PH)

Kratas
born on Derilyn, Kratas was accepted into the SAGEducation group at the Calamar University on a full scholarship. He excelled in history and politics, and was chosen for further training on Carida. He eventually was promoted to Navy Commander under Daala's command, captain of the Gorgon. He was in charge of the ground forces which Daala sends to route the Eol Sha colonists relocated to Dantooine. Kratas was one of the few members of Daala's team to survive the series of defeats that the Imperial fleet suffered under Daala, and he accompanied her into the Core to search for the feuding warlords. They tried to get the warlords to unify and creata a huge force against the New Republic, but each of them was too wrapped up in his own power to agree. Kratas was killed while inspecting Harrsk's flagship Star Destroyer, the Shockwave, when the warship was destroyed in an attack from another Imperial warlord, Teradoc. (JS, DA, COTF, DS, JASB)

Krath Holy Battle Suit
this form of body armor was popular among the members of the Krath, during the height of the Great Sith War. The Holy Battle Suit provided protection against temperature extremes as well as sonic blasts, in addition to its ability to absorb or deflect blaster bolts. However, many members of the Krath regarded the wearers of these armor suits as weaklings who needed extra protection for guard duty, which was much less dangerous that actual combat. (KOTOR)

Krax
this elder Troob was the leader of his people, and represented them at the peace and trade negotiations held by the Tion Hegemony. When his son Ket was murdered, apparently by Larka Nimondro, General Krax broke off the negotiations and declared war on the Hobors. Just as he was planning to launch his attack, C-3PO and R2-D2 managed to use Mount Yeroc to communicate to all parties. They exposed Jake Harthan as the killer, and managed to avert a full-scale war. Krax deferred to reason, and agreed to meet with Nimondro on their own terms, to discuss a true peace for Tahlboor before further negotiations with the Tion Hegemony began. (DRPC)

Kraym, Thorne
this man was one of the military leaders who supported the Jabiimi Nationalists, during the Imperial occupation of Jabiim. Years earlier, he was among the military officers who were supporting the Separatist forces during the Clone Wars, and nearly died when Orliss Gillmunn and his guerrillas boxed his detachment into High Rock Canyon. However, Thorne and his forces used a specially-designed virus to wipe out the Loyalists and escape, with Thorne taking Gillmunn's life himself during their escape. Thorne confronted Gillmunn's son, Nolan, some twenty years later, when the Imperial forces on Jabiim raided the Loyalist headquarters. He claimed to have finally ousted the Empire and reclaimed complete mining rights to the planet without firing a single shot, by giving in to two conditions: a large portion of the Jabiimite population was to be shipped off-planet as indentured workers, and Gillmunn had to turn over Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa as prisoners. Gillmunn refused on both counts, and although Leia was allowed to escape, Thorne was more than pleased to learn that Luke was the son of Anakin Skywalker. His pleasure at confronting the son of the man who doomed Jabiim's Loyalists to subjugation by the Empire was short-lived, however, when it was learned that Darth Vader himself was on his way to Jabiim to take Luke into custody. In a final attempt to break the will of the rebels, Thorne tried to execute Nolan and his Loyalist leaders. The exeuction was cut short when Vader ordered the bombardment of Jabiim from space, sending the stormtroopers scurrying for cover. In the ensuing chaos, Thorne tried to kill Luke, but was instead fatally shot by Nolan Gillmunn. With his dying breath, he railed against the Loyalists, but ultimately died from his wounds. (SWESF)

Krayn
this huge T'surr was one of the most despicable slave traders of the Old Republic's last decades. He regularly raided the slave hovels of places like Mos Espa, on Tatooine, taking what he wanted without fear of being stopped. Krayn was a near-human, appearing more like an immense creature with his rough clothing and unkempt hair. He wore a number of trinkets and items dangling from his belt, reminders of beings he had killed in the course of his life. Four years after the Battle of Naboo, Krayn was discovered to be raiding Colicoid shipping convoys, and Supreme Chancellor Palpatine asked the Jedi Knights to intervene. Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker were dispatched to protect the Colicoids. Obi-Wan later discovered that Krayn had managed to obtain control of the spice processing facilities on Nar Shaddaa, and had been the target of Colicoid negotiations for the rights to the facilities. In return for access to the facilities, Krayn demanded that he be made the sole provider of slaves to the Spice Mines of Kessel. Unfortunately, Krayn never lived to see his plans reach fruition. Shortly after he captured Anakin Skywalker, Krayn found himself facing a slave revolt at the spice facility on Nar Shaddaa. Led by Anakin, the slaves quickly took over, especially since the Nar Shaddaa guards had been ordered to ignore the raid by Aga Culpa. Anakin chased down Krayn and fought him, eventually disarming the larger man. Despite Obi-Wan's cries to keep Krayn alive, Anakin drove his lightsaber through Krayn's chest and killed him. (SWDB, JQ, JQC)

Krayt Dragon
a large, fearsome beast native to Tatooine, the krayt dragon continued to grow larger throughout its lifespan. There were two distinct subspecies of krayt dragon. The smaller was known as the canyon krayt, and was yellowish-brown in color, a camouflage used to blend in with the desert's rocky caves and fissures. The head of the dragon was heavily armored, and four or more large horns grew from its crown. The dragon walked low to the ground on four heavy legs, and its tail was studded with long spikes. The larger of the two subspecies was known as the greater krayt dragon, and was an incredibly huge monster. Measuring 100 meters or more in length, the greater krayt moved about on ten stout legs, and could literally swim through the sand as it moved. Many believed that the canyon krayt was an offspring of the greater krayt, but this has never been proven. The Tusken Raiders on Tatooine had a maturity ritual in which young males were left in the desert to confront and kill a krayt dragon in order to prove their adulthood. The only sure way to kill the krayt was to penetrate their central sinus cavity and puncture the brain which lay behind it. The krayt, like many reptiles, had fearsome teeth which are used to capture its prey, but are ineffective for grinding and chewing. So, like many reptiles, the kray dragon ingests stones and boulders and holds them in a series of gizzards. The muscles of the gizzard chambers roll food around among the stones, crushing it into digestible pulp. The last gizzard chamber contains the smoothest stones, which are expelled in favor ot newer, rougher stones. These smooth stones are known throughout the galaxy as dragon pearls, and are extremely valuable. It has been reported that the krayt dragon has recently been domesticated. They are often raised for their milk and eggs. The Sandpeople and Jawas have said that the bones of the krayt dragon hold mystical powers. There are some scholars who believe that the krayt dragon is really the descendant of the wild offspring of a Duinuogwuin, although this has never been proven. (SW, DE2, TJP, ISU, GG7, CCG, GG4, WSW)

Kreegon
this legendary beast was believed to have lived on the Forest Moon of Endor, preying on Ewoks and other creatures. The Kreegon was a large, four-legged reptile with red scales and a single eye. Atop its head was a heavy spike, which it drove into its victims. It was eventually defeated by the Ewoks who worked with Chief Chirpa's father, and its remains were buried deep beneath the moon's surface. Only its mystical eyeball, known as the Crystal Eye, was kept by the Ewoks, as a way to prevent the Kreegon from being resurrected. Morag later stole the Crystal Eye, during the early years of the New Order, and restored the Kreegon to life, but Chirpa tricked her into using her magic to destroy the Eye. The Kreegon was killed, once and for all. (MECAR)

Kreet'ah
this Kian'thar was one of Prince Xizor's vigo's, or one of his closest lieutenants. He had learned the criminal trade from his biological mother, who was herself one of Xizor's vigos during her own lifetime. Kreet'ah's professional assets impressed the Falleen prince, who rewarded Kreet'ah by allowing him to inherit his mother's position. Among his assets, Kreet'ah had developed a wide-ranging information network, and developed a wealth on corporate contacts and spies. Given Xizor's desire to control information, this made Kreet'ah quite valuable to the Falleen prince. (SE, SLS)

Kreetch Eel
this large eel was native to the planet Naboo. It was known for its ability to conduct electricity, which it used for both defense and for obtaining its prey. Kreeth eels often fed on the electrical devices of the Gungans. (GMR4)

Kreetle
this large, parasitic insect was found on several planets, including Tatooine and Naboo. Kreetles were omnivorous, feeding on many varieties of plants and small animals. They had large, mandibular jaws which could be used to capture and crush its prey. Trained kreetles found on the planet Naboo were used by the Gungans to open containers and clams, and farm-raised kreetles were considered a crunchy snack. Wild kreetles fed on a variety of foods, and those that lived in urban areas could be found feeding in garbage piles. (GF, WSW)

Kreia
this woman was a Jedi Master during the years following the Great Sith War. She had an uncanny knack for tapping into the Force, and could teach students new ways to communicate with the Force. Although she was loyal to the Jedi Order, Kreia wielded a double-bladed lightsaber, which employed green crystals. About five years after the defeat of Darth Malak, Kreia discovered The Exile onboard the damaged starship Ebon Hawk and brought it to Peragus II. After making sure that The Exile was able to escape, Kreia found herself confronting Darth Sion, in order to ensure The Exile's escape. She barely managed to survive the encounter, in which she lost the use of one hand, and made her way back to the Ebon Hawk just as The Exile and Atton Rand were blasting off. She kept to herself during the initial part of their flight, nursing the stump where her hand used to be, until The Exile questioned her about a blinding pain in his hand. Kreia realized that a Force Chain had formed between them, although the reason for the link was unclear. Kreia was also surprised to find that The Exile's connection to the Force had begun to return, and vowed to train him in order to help restore the Jedi Order. It was during this training that Kreia revealed she was one of the many Jedi who abandoned the Order to confront the growing power of the Sith, in the wake of the destruction of the Star Forge. She also revealed that she had been Revan's teacher, both during his early training and again after he returned to the Light Side of the Force. However, after The Exile managed to regroup the surviving Jedi Masters on Dantooine, Kreia revealed that she had fallen to the Dark Side of the Force. Having re-taken the title of Darth Traya, she fled to Telos with Atris and set out to destroy the planet. In the wake of her death on Malachor V, the surviving Jedi were able to piece together enough of Kreia's history to realize that she had been behind a large number of defections - among them, Revan and The Exile - during the years following the Great Sith War. Because of this, she was exiled by the Jedi Order. In her guilt, Kreia chose to abandon the Jedi and seek out Revan on Malachor V. It was there that she began her training at the Trayus Academy, and led to her ultimate fall to the Dark Side and her transformation to Darth Traya. (KOTOR2, LAWS)

When Twolz and the rest of his crew were killed on Niian, Krell and Dannen Lifehold went into business for themselves. Krell ended up on Alderaan, shortly before the Battle of Yavin. Lifehold believed it was Krell who set the homing beacon on the Lifeline, shortly before it traveled to the planet Rafft, but could find no real evidence linking Krell to the beacon. (SWJ1, SWJ3)

Krell, Damon
this Imperial Admiral devised several modifications to the standard Viper probe droid, making his own droids larger and better armed than their originals. Admiral Krell was a hulking, well-muscled man who was distinguished by a ragged scar across his left cheek. He launched his probe droids shortly after the Battle of Hoth, in an effort to locate possible Alliance fleets. Whenever the droids encountered Alliance starships, they were programmed to attack and kill all beings aboard, then assume control of the ship. Using information stored in the ship's navigational computers, the probe droid would then head toward the nearest Alliance fleet, intent on infiltrating the fleet and turning their own weapons against them. If firepower wasn;t sufficient, the probe droids were also programmed to overload the ships' main reactor cores, causing massive explosions. One particular probe droid, designated 13-K, captured an Alliance corvette, but the ship was infiltrated by Luke Skywalker. Its programming caused it to break off its pursuit of the Alliance fleet and return to Krell with Skywalker as its prisoner. 13-K reached Admiral Krell's vessel just as the main reactor in the corvette reached critical levels and exploded, destroying 13-K, the corvette, Krell's ship and all hands aboard. (MC45)

this was a name that was common among the Sanyassan race. (UANT)

Krennel, Delak
this man, a native of the planet Corulag, graduated from the Imperial Academy on Prefsbelt IV, where he was the intramural unarmed-combat champion. Upon graduation, Krennel served the Empire until the Battle of Endor. He was dispatched to the Unknown Regions to serve under Admiral Thrawn, though he detested the fact that he was serving an alien. After Krennel bombarded a world instead of following Thrawn's more "passifistic" orders, Krennel was sent back to Imperial Center for punishment from the Emperor himself. Luckily for Krennel, Emperor Palpatine was killed at Endor before he could pass judgement on Krennel. Krennel then fled Imperial service, striking out on his own and establishing himself at the same time as other renegade Imperial warlords like Zsinj and Teradoc. In a battle, he lost the use of his right forearm from the elbow down, and the limb had to be replaced with a cybernetic implant. The mechanical device glowed red whenever he exerted force with it, evoking fear in his subordinates and enemies. During the initial struggle for control of the Empire, Krennel aligned himself with General Paltr Carvin and, on orders from Ysanne Isard, set out to capture Leia Organa at Axxila. He was thrown off his plan by an AT3 directive from Soontir Fel, a directive reinforced by Sate Pestage. Krennel backed off, but later learned of Pestage's deception in moving him away from Axxila. When Isard approached him about working directly for her instead of Carvin, he was initially suspicious. However, she helped augment his forces in an attempt to retrieve Pestage from Ciutric, and his allegiance changed. After the New Republic thought they had recovered Pestage, Pestage slipped away and presented himself to Krennel for asylum. Krennel, however, cared nothing for Pestage but desired the control of Pestage's holding. Krennel personally executed Sate Pestage by strangling him with his cybernetic hand, then usurped control of the Ciutric Hegemony for himself and paid lip-service to Thrawn's call for support during his rise to power. After Thrawn's death at Bilbringi, the Republic targeted Krennel and the Ciutric Hegemony for removal. They began raiding Ciutric space, unaware that Krennel had allied himself with the activated clone of Ysanne Isard. Together, they began a disinformation campaign aimed at opening a rift between the human and non-human races of the New Republic. Krennel claimed the Hegemony to be a haven for Alderaanian refugees who were tired of the Republic's pro-alien politics. However, they efforts were undermined by the real Ysanne Isard, who managed to capture Rogue Squadron and convince them to help her defeat Krennel. As soon as Krennel learned that the Rogues were destroyed at Corvis Minor, he and the clone began plotting their conquest of Coruscant. They waylayed Republic supply convoys to Liinade III, hoping to draw off much of the starship security around Coruscant. Just as they were about to launch their attack, the Republic - on a tip from Wedge Antilles, who was working with the real Isard - attacked Ciutric. Before his forces could leave the system, Krennel found himself on the brink of disaster. His fleet was decimated by the effectiveness of the Thrawn Pincer, Ciutric had been infiltrated and her planetary shields dropped, and he had no firepower to bring to bear on the Republic ships. The combined fire of the Selonian Fire and the Corusca Fire destroyed Krennel's flagship, the Reckoning, and Krennel was killed in the explosion. (XWMR, IR)

The creature's scary appearance was used as a deterrent by Belsavian parents. They often told their children that the kretch would catch them and eat them if they did something bad. Nichos Marr's caretaker Margolis used to warn Nichos and his friends that the kretch would catch them if they found Plett's Well. Note that Boba Fett: Maze of Deception indicates that the kretch measures more than a half-meter in length, with a jointed body and many jointed legs. (COJ, EGP, BF3)

As infants, Krevaaki use all eight of their tentacles in a variety of ways, including locomotion and manipulation. As adults, however, Krevaaki move about on six tentacles, using the other two for manipulation.
