Revan encountered a Krayt dragon on Tatooine in his search for the Star Forge. A Twi'lek hunter was waiting outside the lair, deliberating on the best way to tempt the dragon out when the former Dark Lord came along. The Twi'lek told Revan of his plan on drawing the dragon out into the open, where he had mines set up. Revan brought several Banthas to tempt the dragon, who left its lair and walked through the mine field, which killed it after several blasts. Krayt dragons are also hunted on Tatooine in Star Wars: Galaxies.

- Krayt dragons were giant carnivorous lizards that lived on Tatooine. Their diet consisted of banthas, Sand People, ill-prepared or impatient hunters, or unsuspecting tourists. They were believed to have been descended from a pet alligator that was flushed down a toilet and mutated in the sewers. Darth Krayt named himself after the krayt dragon, as did Puff the Magic Dragon.
- The krayt dragon was a large carnivorous reptile native to Tatooine.
- Durring Operation Stalking the Dragon it carried two Vindicator Interceptors modified for stealth operations (weapons pod removed, ion cannons placed in the original Eta-2 location). Durring the Mission of 100 ABY she carried the Ivory Dagger and a Tera-class Recon Drone.
- Krayt dragons are large carnivorous reptiles native to the deserts of Tatooine. Several species and subspecies are known to exist. They grow continuously throughout their lives, and do not weaken appreciably with age. Average individuals can grow up to 45 meters long and weigh up to 200 tonnes. Some could even live to be a century old.
- One of the most fabled beasts of Tatooine, the Krayt Dragon is said to keep growing larger throughout its lifetime. The head of the dragon is heavily armored, and five large horns grow from its crown. Like some reptiles, the krayt dragon ingests stones and boulders and holds them in a series of gizzards. The smoothest of these stones are known throughout the galaxy as Dragon Pearls, and are extremely valuable.

abstract
| - Revan encountered a Krayt dragon on Tatooine in his search for the Star Forge. A Twi'lek hunter was waiting outside the lair, deliberating on the best way to tempt the dragon out when the former Dark Lord came along. The Twi'lek told Revan of his plan on drawing the dragon out into the open, where he had mines set up. Revan brought several Banthas to tempt the dragon, who left its lair and walked through the mine field, which killed it after several blasts. Krayt dragons are also hunted on Tatooine in Star Wars: Galaxies.
- Krayt dragons are large carnivorous reptiles native to the deserts of Tatooine. Several species and subspecies are known to exist. They grow continuously throughout their lives, and do not weaken appreciably with age. Average individuals can grow up to 45 meters long and weigh up to 200 tonnes. Some could even live to be a century old. A fierce hunter, the krayt dragon became an important part of indigenous cultures on Tatooine.The Sandpeople of Tatooine revered the krayt dragon as a powerful hunter and centered their primary maturity ritual on it. Adolescent males were abandoned in the Tatooine dune and only accepted back into their tribes as adults when they had slain a krayt dragon. Both the Sandpeople and Jawas placed the krayt dragon in the position of a powerful spirit, and believed that their bones possessed magic. Jawas brave enough to risk the acquisition of krayt dragon bones were held in high regard among their people. Even the Jedi were impressed by the strength and ferocity of these beasts, naming the Shien and Djem So form of lightsaber combat "The Way of the Krayt Dragon." The krayt dragon had a set of sharp teeth used for capturing prey, but relied on ingesting stones to grind the food through a series of gizzards into a digestible state. Food would be crushed by the stones tumbled in the gizzards by stomach muscles, grinding food into pulp and turning boulders into smooth stones. The resulting stones, known as dragon pearls, were a valuable commodity among jewelers. The pearls could also be shaped and tuned by Jedi to be used as focusing crystals in their lightsabers. Krayt dragons instinctively go to the Krayt Graveyard when they are about to die. Gardulla the Hutt had a Krayt dragon in her palace, to whom she would feed with her enemies or those who failed her. However, she did not have control over the dragon and just used it as - as shown when Jango Fett pushed her towards her dragon, which swallowed her. In the battle that followed, Jango fought against Gardulla's guards as well as the Dragon. Due to its enormous size, the creature's movement was restricted - allowing Jango to easily dodge its attacks and hit it with volleys of laser fire from his blasters as well as hitting it with thermal grenades and missiles from his jetpack. Gardulla's guards, in their attempts to kill Jango, also ended up unitentionally hitting the dragon as they fired their own missile launchers. Eventually, the fatally wounded dragon left off a final roar before falling to the ground, dead - Jango leaving its corpse behind. Sometime afterward, Gardulla narrowly managed to escape from the inside of her dead dragon after crawling out of the creature's mouth, although the lack of oxygen inside the dead beast had caused her voice to become higher pitched.
- One of the most fabled beasts of Tatooine, the Krayt Dragon is said to keep growing larger throughout its lifetime. The head of the dragon is heavily armored, and five large horns grow from its crown. Like some reptiles, the krayt dragon ingests stones and boulders and holds them in a series of gizzards. The smoothest of these stones are known throughout the galaxy as Dragon Pearls, and are extremely valuable. The thrill of the hunt is not the only thing that drives the brave members of a Krayt Dragon Hunt. The experience as well as the lucrative Pearls play a part in seducing a hunter into risking his life to kill such a beast. The pearls, as above mentioned, are the gullet stones of the Krayt, and are seldom found. When they are found, they are rated. Few are perfect, but some are close by. One thing about Krayt hunting is for sure; hunters skilled enough to succeed will earn prestige from their fellows.
