Krith

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. Considered to be a heretic by the Covenant, Krith's reign was ended by Ripa 'Moramee, a Sangheili warlord serving the Ministry of Preservation. 'Moramee led a legion of Sangheili on Malurok against Krith's own forces, butchering the infamous pirate and his allies.

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