Political and military information

Title:

Prince[3]

 

Krith was a notorious Kig-Yar pirate prince. He maintained personal vaults that contained various weapons, including a personalized Type-27 beam rifle known as Krith's Left Hand.[4] Considered to be a heretic by the Covenant, Krith's reign was ended by Ripa 'Moramee, a Sangheili warlord serving the Ministry of Preservation.[3] 'Moramee led a legion of Sangheili on Malurok against Krith's own forces,[3] butchering the infamous pirate and his allies.[1]

This conflict reduced 'Moramee's legion to a handful of hardened killers, but cemented his reputation for ruthlessness.[1] After Krith's defeat, 'Moramee raided the pirate prince's personal vaults, retrieving Krith's Left Hand.[4] Years later, 'Moramee's success in overthrowing Krith would influence the Hierarchs' decision to grant him the rank of Arbiter.[3]

Behind the scenes

Krith is mistakenly referred to as a pirate king in Halo 5: Guardians,[4] while he has also been described as a lord.[1]
