Kratyn vuv Enerkerraz was a Covallon Jedi Shadow trained by Djinn Altis following Order 66 and the collapse of the old Jedi Order under the Galactic Empire. At that time, he was a companion of the Rodian Jedi Kiuwo, although Kiuwo later did not remember Kratyn. At some point after leaving the Altisian Jedi, Kratyn became the pupil of an unknown liege lord, presumably a Sith. This Sith opposed a group called the Varanian Brethren, though little is known about either of them. As the student, Kratyn became crucial to the liege lord's plans to stop the Varanian Brethren.
