Kralos/History

Kralos is the Grandmaster of the Wither Knights. He was the right-hand man of General Naeus and helped him rise to become the Nether King in the Nether Civil War. As commander of the Wither Clan, Kralos fought in the conquest of New Dragonspire and the Battle of the Far Plains. While the pigmen fight in the Overworld, King Naeus kept the wither soldiers in the safety of the Nether and the End. In New Dragonspire, Kralos runs an ender pearl farm and is working on taming the resurrected Ender Dragon (now known as the Nether Dragon), becoming known as Dragonlord Kralos.
== Grandmaster ==
Kralos, like all wither skeletons, was a former human who fell victim to the Wither Heart. He became the military advisor of an undead warlord, Naeus, who rose to lead the Wither Clan and become a general. Kralos commanded wither skeleton retinues for the Horde. He later stated that he is the Grandmaster of the Wither Knights, the clan's elite warriors.

==== Hard Pill to Swallow ====
After the death of the Nether King and his only heir, Naeus' protégé Abigail Crysteffor, the throne was usurped by the False Pig King. His advocacy for pigman supremacy and Wither genocide sparked the Nether Civil War between the two groups.
When Kralos asked Naeus how they should retaliate, Naeus declared he would absorb Abigail's Royal Star and unite the Nether. Kralos watched as Naeus disposes of Abigail's body in lava, gaining the Star in the process, and leads the Skeletons in bowing to Naeus. They then headed to the Wither Camp to retrieve Herobrine's head. Pigmen forces got there first, but the skeletons wiped out all of them but Hogsworth, their commander, and took the head. After Naeus absorbed Herobrine's powers, the Withers stormed the fortress with Kralos in the lead, acting as a distraction whilst Naeus took on the False Pig King. ("Hard Pill to Swallow")

=== Fall of New Dragonspire ===
Naeus became the new Nether King. ("Hard Pill to Swallow") He unified the wither skeletons and the pigmen as one kingdom, one army, and appointed Kralos and Hogsworth to respectively lead them. Following Naeus, Kralos fought in the Nether's conquest of New Dragonspire, which marked the beginning of the . They also made history as the first non-Ender nation to even attack the End. ("Ender Wish") Afterwards, Kralos supervised the endermen bound to watch Naeus' execution of their ruler, Ceris. ("Cold as Ice: The Remake")
=== Battle of the Far Plains ===
After that, the Nether Empire conquered the Mystic Forest and the Far Plains in the Overworld. To stop the Nether from unearthing a buried Nether Portal, so massive it could transport an entire army, the attacked. Midway through the battle, the portal was fully raised. Reinforcements spearheaded by Naeus and Kralos flooded in, forcing the overwhelmed humans to retreat. ("Cold as Ice: The Remake")
Despite his success, Naeus was crushed by a downed airship and reduced to a talking head. After the battle, Kralos and Hogsworth performed a ritual on Naeus. Bowing to his head, they vowed to continue his Overworld campaign while he healed.https://twitter.com/Rainolaguer/status/1377487346220867585 ("The Last Ender Watcher" epilogue).
=== Service in New Dragonspire ===
Emperor Naeus ordered Hogsworth to push into Frostbourne Territory with his pigmen, but kept the Wither Clan back in New Dragonspire and the Nether, perhaps out of lingering bias for his own people. Kralos managed New Dragonspire and its endermen slaves.https://twitter.com/Rainolaguer/status/1470200381732913152 The city had become an ender pearl farm. The slaves were put to work carrying Netherrack to terraform their home. Kralos sent Hogsworth ender pearls, which helped Hogsworth gain an upper hand against the Frostbourne in "Gotta Get Outta Here".https://twitter.com/Rainolaguer/status/1469624345148346370
From New Dragonspire, Kralos tracked the Overworld war and mutated the Ender Dragon into "the Nether Dragon". ("Back into Darkness") He got new armour with an Eye of Ender embedded into the centre of the chestplate. As the first person from the Nether to tame a dragon, he also earned a new title, "Dragonlord Kralos". When the Nether Dragon awakened, Kralos began his attempts to tame this volatile creature with the Eye of Ender. ("You Can Do Better") The dragon is now in the middle of training to join the Nether Empire.
