Krith (Earth-5875)

Krith was an infamous Ibie'shan Kig-Yar pirate prince who broke away from the Covenant in an attempt to lead his criminal empire. He had a personal vault where he encased many valuables and weapons, including a customized Type-27 beam rifle known among his followers as "Krith's Left Hand".

Biography
After breaking away from the Covenant upon deeming the Path and the Great Journey a lie, Krith was deemed a heretic by the Hierarchs. While his uprising was partially succesful in the beginning, Krith's rebellion was put to an end by the sangheili Ripa 'Moramee, a warlord employed by the Ministry of Preservation. In 2524, 'Moramee led a legion of his best warriors against Krith's incursion, killing the pirate prince and all of his allies.

The conflict saw the death of most of 'Moramee's warriors, but quickly spread his image as a ruthless killer. Ripa had his men raid Krith's vault, retrieving all of his stolen weapons, including Krith's Left Hand. 'Moramee's victory against the heretics was later an influence for the Hierarchs to name him an Arbiter three years later.
