The original Krath was formed in 3998 BBY by Aleema and Satal Keto after finding the tomb of Freedon Nadd where they were given a talisman to read ancient sith and sith spell books and additional knowledge. The Krath name came from mythological God of the same name a god of Evil and forbidden Magick which they had gotten there hands on. After a while the Keto's began to bring other Tetan nobles into there cult creating a secret society that ruled over the worlds of the Tetan empire. Eventually they got in contact with the Brotherhood of the sith and the Mandalorians and together they launched a Holy Crusade to take the Galaxy. Though over time they were eventually defeated and the groups seemingly turned on each other as they began to dissolve.

Then it would seem after the death of Aleema and Satal the Krath largely vanished or so the story goes in truth they continued to practice in the shadows but didn't strive for the glory they once had. Thousands of Years past and Dyans Keto 's aunt held the throne of Empress Teta and was widely despised by the populace. Tegan Starfall who had recently been exiled from Dathomir by the Dark Coven for certain crimes she committed set out on her next plan to gain power and influence. She knew the stories of the ancient Krath and she was intrigued but soon realized she couldn't control Dyans Aunt on throne like she hoped to help her make the Krath Great again. So Tegan found out Dyans was set to inherit the throne as Dyans aunt had no known children. Tegan found Dyans easier to manipulate a humble soul who only wanted to see the Tetan Empire stay strong and survive. So Tegan up and assassinated Dyans aunt and got her on the throne around 100 ABY.

Tegan manipulated Dyans into reforming the Krath into her vision of what they should be and from there the slow corruption of Dyans Began much like with her ancestors Aleema and Satal. She slowly over time became more of dictator like her aunt and less of the savior she set out to be. For a long time she held Throne an Territory the Tetan Empire with an iron fist attacking neighboring governments and even claiming more territory for the Tetan empire. Yet in a battle with Jedi on Tython as her empire looked to take control of it and pilfer it's treasures and knowledge for the Krath, Tegan Starfall turned her back on the Krath. Tegan had grown bored with the project and Dyans was becoming to uncontrollable for Tegan as Dyans gained self assurance and even was standing up to Tegan's demanding nature. So in the Battle Tegan pulled her forces and with a deal she made with the sorcerers of Rhand attacked the Planet Empress Teta while the Tetans were off fighting on Tython.

Decimated her people angry with her Dyans Keto was ousted and the Krath made up of nobles turned on her the Organizations nearly collapsing completely. Yet Dyans was able to save a small loyalist portion of it the ghost network (Spy network). As she fled her home world to Dathomri where her husband and kids lived a secret even kept from the Krath that she was married and had children. There she began to run in criminal organization under several false names as an information broker. The Krath on Empress Teta lived on even though Dyans influence was gone other Leaders of the Tetan Empire revived it from time to time. Every iteration gaining some level of success in the Galaxy.

Until much later when around 865 ABY when she was called to Exegol by her frenemy Tegan Starfall where she was introduced to Darth Solipsis. Together they forged a plan to rebuild Dyans version of The Krath and restart it's ancient crusade and retake the core.. Steps where made with the various tribes and organizations that they were to hand over so many members of there tribes as tribute tot he crusade. Now the Crusade is building up for the Maw strike on the Core to free the worlds from the Galactic alliances grasp.
