K'avar (?b - ?d)

Lord K'avar was a Redguard noble of Sentinel in the late Third Era. Along with Lord Vhosek, he commanded the Order of the Candle, a knightly order charged with the protection of Sentinel that replaced the defunct Knights of the Moon.

In the events leading up to the Warp in the West, Lord K'avar allied himself with the Order of the Black Worm and planned to overthrow Queen Akorithi to become King of Sentinel. K'avar went into hiding once the Fighters Guild got involved, although he was later arrested and imprisoned in the dungeons of Sentinel. He then escaped and fled to Castle Wayrest. Akorithi ordered his execution, but it is unknown if this was carried out.

High Craftlord Kagrenac (?b - 1E 700)

Lord Kagrenac was the Dwemeri Chief Tonal Architect during the time of the First Council. The foremost arcane philosopher and magecrafter of the Dwemer, he was a "pioneer" in the field of mythopoeic forces, and devised tools with which to harness them with the intent of transcending the limits of Dwemer mortality. Kagrenac was the primary architect working on the Heart of Lorkhan and was responsible for creating the original Brass God, Anumidium. According to some theories, it may have been his use of his tools on the Heart that caused the Dwemer to disappear from the face of Tamriel in 1E 700.

Count Kantus Jeril (?b - ?d)

Count Kantus Jeril was a First Era Imperial. For heroisms performed at Pale Pass, he was appointed the first Count of Chorrol, a settlement located in the rugged Colovian Highlands. It is unknown if he is a direct ancestor of the Valga family, who ruled Chorrol at the end of the Third Era. The Jerall Mountains bear his name, although the correlation is unknown.

Karrod (?b - ?d)

Karrod was a mysterious Redguard warrior and a lifelong friend and protector of Hlaalu Helseth. He was long perceived as being deaf and dumb due to his refusal to speak to anyone.

Karrod was born in the city of Wayrest in High Rock. As a child, Karrod's father gave him an odd Dwemer longsword, and told him that none would defeat him in battle until the blade's rightful owner came to claim it. Karrod was then seemingly orphaned on the streets of Wayrest, and turned to thievery. After he had the audacity to attempt to rob Princess Elysana, her half-brother Prince Helseth took him into his employ. Karrod grew to be extremely loyal towards Helseth for taking him in. True to his father's prophecy, he also remained undefeated in battle and became a deadly warrior. Helseth proclaimed him his Champion, and Karrod joined the ranks of the Royal Guard when Helseth inherited the Throne of Morrowind and moved to Mournhold.

In 3E 427, the Nerevarine came to Mournhold. In order to earn the King's trust, Karrod and the Nerevarine dueled, and Karrod lost. This also earned the Nerevarine the warrior's respect and friendship, and his admission of defeat was the first time Helseth had ever heard him speak. The goddess Almalexia later ordered the Nerevarine to reforge Trueflame, the Blade of Nerevar. As fate would have it, the three fractured pieces of the blade had come to Mournhold. Karrod's Dwemer weapon was one such piece, and the warrior duly surrendered his blade to the Nerevarine.

Karstaag (?b - 3E 427)

Karstaag was a Frost Giant who lived along the northern coast of Solstheim in the late Third Era. He resided in Castle Karstaag, a giant fortress of ice. He employed a large number of rieklings to guard and maintain his castle. In 3E 427, as part of the Bloodmoon Prophecy, Karstaag was taken from his castle by the Hounds of Hircine to serve as Prey in his Hunt. He was brought to a maze beneath the Mortrag Glacier, which served as the hunting ground. When the Hunt began, Karstaag successfully navigated the werewolf-filled maze and made it to the central chamber, where he would face off against an aspect of Hircine to earn his freedom. However, Karstaag was then killed by the Nerevarine, another participant in the Hunt.

Following the Nerevarine's defeat of the Hunter, the glacier collapsed due to Hircine's rage, and Karstaag's remains were buried in the ice. His castle was taken over by the rieklings and fell into ruin, gradually losing its shape. Through unknown means, the majority of Karstaag's skeletal remains were recovered and placed upon his throne. His skull was discovered in 4E 201 by the Last Dragonborn, embedded in the wall of a glacial cave. The Dragonborn placed the skull on Karstaag's throne, summoning his angry spirit. Karstaag's ghost was defeated, and temporarily gifted the Dragonborn with the power to summon his spirit to aid in battle.

Emperor Kastav (?b - 1E 2806)

Kastav was an Emperor of the Reman Dynasty. In 1E 2801, he ordered the Dragonguard of Sky Haven Temple to seize Nordic hostages to coerce the satisfaction of conscription quotas. He then cut off supplies to the Temple when they refused to help suppress the resulting Winterhold Rebellion. His poor handling of this and other issues branded him as incompetent, and Kastav was deposed in 1E 2805 or 2806, succeeded by Reman II. In the Fourth Era, a military fort in the Winterhold region of Skyrim bore his name.

Empress Katariah (?b - 3E 200)

Empress Katariah, born Katariah Ra'athim, was part of a prominent Ebonheart family, and she had been Duchess of Vvardenfell before she was married in 3E 141 to Pelagius Septim III, who was then ruler of Solitude (though they would go on to become Emperor and Empress). The unusual union was thought to have occurred both to cement Imperial relations with Ebonheart and because Emperor Magnus hoped Katariah, who was known for her shrewdness, could help conceal the eccentricities of his son Pelagius. Katariah was awarded the regency of Tamriel in 3E 147. The Empress Regent of Tamriel was proclaimed Empress Katariah I upon the death of her husband in 3E 153, and her almost fifty-year reign is remembered as a happy one.

Kathutet (?b - ?d)

Kathutet is a Dremora whose clan is based at Ganonah, a region of the Deadlands. His kin include Amkaos, Ranyu and Orthe. The Xivilai Anaxes serves him as one of his agents.

Along with Amkaos and Ranyu, Kathutet once served Molag Bal as a torturer. In 2E 582, the three Dremora was sent to Tamriel by Bal to defend a Dark Anchor. However, they were swiftly banished by the Fighters Guild and the Anchor was released. Some time after this, all three came into the service of Mehrunes Dagon. In 3E 433, the Sigil Tower at Ganonah was used during the sacking of Kvatch, and a single Oblivion Gate linking the region to Tamriel was left open following the attack. Kathutet's clan subsequently suffered swift retribution from the Hero of Kvatch, who entered the portal and destroyed the tower. This earned the hero great respect among clanmembers, Kathutet included.

Kathuetet himself was not present at Ganonah at the time, as he had been ordered by Dagon to serve Mankar Camoran in Gaiar Alata. He was charged with keeping order in the Savage Garden, where the souls of "unmortal" Mythic Dawn members took part in ceaseless combat to prove themselves. Kathutet despised their cowardice, and was humiliated when Anaxes was trapped in a cave by the cultists. When the Hero of Kvatch entered Gaiar Alata in search of the Amulet of Kings, Kathutet offered to take the hero into his service out of respect for the deeds at Ganonah. In return for freeing Anaxes, Kathutet would grant passage into the Forbidden Grotto, where Amkaos, Ranyu and Orthe tortured dissenting unmortals. It is unknown if the hero served Kathutet or defeated him in combat, or both.

Khosey (?b - ?d)

Author of the Tamrilean Tractates, in which he transcribes a first hand account of the discovery of the Bretons by a Nordic hunting party.

Empress Kintyra (?b - 3E 48)

First cousin of Emperor Pelagius Septim and daughter of Tiber Septim's brother Agnorith, Empress Kintyra was crowned the third Emperor of Tamriel after Pelagius' assassination in 3E 41, as Pelagius had no living children. The former Queen of Silvenar was blessed with a time of prosperity and good harvests, and was an avid patroness of art, music, and dance. Kintyra was mother to Uriel Septim I, successor to her rule of Tamriel when she died in 3E 48. The most famous burglar in Elsweyr's history, Rajhin, is said to have stolen a tattoo from the neck of Empress Kintyra as she slept. The Wolf Queen, v1, quoting a sage, implies that Kintyra was still Empress in 3E 63, though she died fifteen years before.

Empress Kintyra II (3E 104 - 3E 123)

Inherited the throne at the age of fifteen when her father, King Antiochus died after twenty-one years of ruling in 3E 119. Her story is considered one of the saddest tales of the Third Era. Her aunt Queen Potema of Solitude, on behalf of her son Uriel III, accused Kintyra of being a bastard, alluding to the famous decadence of the Imperial City during her father's reign. When this accusation failed to stop her coronation, Uriel bought the support of several disgruntled kings of High Rock, Skyrim, and Morrowind, and, with Queen Potema's assistance, coordinated three attacks on the Septim Empire. The first attack occurred in the Iliac Bay that separates High Rock and Hammerfell. Kintyra's entourage was destroyed and the Empress was taken captive. The Empress died in captivity at Glenpoint. She was a prominent character in the historical fiction The Wolf Queen. Despite her short life, she managed to garner a reputation as an accomplished mystic and sorceress.

There is some controversy over Empress Kintyra's exact date of death, as some sources list it as 3E 114, and others list it as 3E 121-125, with nobody being sure of the exact date. Also, according to The Third Era Timeline and the fictional work Broken Diamonds, Kintyra II was murdered on the morning of the 23rd of Frost Fall, in the year 3E 123. Regardless of when it happened, the death of Kintyra II was considered by some to be the end of the pure strain of Septim blood in the imperial family.

High King Kjoric the White (?b - 1E 477-78)

A High King (or "High Chieftain") of Skyrim who rebelled against Emperor Gorieus and was killed in the Battle of Sungard in 1E 477 or 478. He was a member of the Moot before he became High King by defeating Asurn Ice-Breaker in combat and wearing the Crown of Verity. It is unclear exactly when Kjoric's reign started, but it is known that he attended Gorieus' coronation in 1E 461 as Skyrim's High King. High King Olaf One-Eye's reign had ended only nine years before Gorieus's coronation, though it's possible there was a different High King during some of that time. The Moot ultimately chose Kjoric's son, Hoag Merkiller, to replace him as High King.

Harbinger Kodlak Whitemane (?b - 4E 201)

Kodlak Whitemane was a Nord warrior and a well-respected Harbinger of the Companions. He avoided politics, and maintained the Companions' long-standing tradition of abstaining from political conflicts during the Stormcloak Rebellion (although he did worship Talos). He was also something of a philosopher, prone to pondering on the meaning of honor and nobility. He lost his family at a young age, when he was little more than a boy. His predecessor, the Harbinger Askar, found him working as a bodyguard in Hammerfell, and recruited him. The Companions quickly became his new family. As Harbinger, he maintained that family and honor are the most important things to the Companions, and that they should deal with problems head-on, finding honor in life through glory in battle. Legends of the Companions speak of Kodlak's many great feats, such as Kodlak and another Companion fighting off one hundred and one Orc berserkers.

Jarl Korir (?b - ?d)

The Nord Jarl of Winterhold in 4E 201. Like most of his subjects, Korir held hatred and suspicion for the College of Winterhold, and vowed to have them banned. He supported the Stormcloaks during the Stormcloak Rebellion, and had a son named Assur.

Krahjotdaan

Krahjotdaan is a high dragon whose name means "Cold Maw Doom" in the Dragon Language.

Krahjotdaan was slain by the Dragonguard in 1E 2871, in the southern Jerall Mountains of Cyrodiil. The dragon's name was supposedly confirmed to the Dragonguard by his own account. A fang was taken from his corpse and inscribed to depict his defeat. His death was later documented by the Blades in 2E 373.

Due to the nature of dragons, Krahjotdaan may not be truly dead and therefore could rise again. However, he was not returned to life by Alduin in 4E 201, which could imply that his soul was devoured by a member of the Dragonguard.

King Kurog gro-Bagrakh (?b - ?d)

King of the Orcs of the Wrothgar Mountains during the Interregnum. Also known as Kurog gro-Orsinium. He aided King Emeric during Ranser's War in exchange for the return of Orsinium, and afterward joined the Daggerfall Covenant.

Kvenel the Tongue (?b - ?d)

Kvenel the Tongue was an ancient Nord hero, and master of the thu'um. It is said his favored weapons to carry into battle were a hand-axe and sword, named Okin and Eduj respectively. According to legend, Kvenel commissioned master blacksmith Haman Forgefire to forge Okin for him, to match his beloved sword, Eduj.

Upon his death, Kvenel was entombed in Volunruud, Skyrim. His burial chamber was sealed with a special lock that could only be opened with two ceremonial replicas of Okin and Eduj, which were then were put on display and guarded in other parts of the tomb. Memory of his life faded as the eras passed and he was largely forgotten, save for old hymns and mythic accounts. In 4E 201 the Last Dragonborn explored Volunruud and encountered the ghost of Kvenel. After defeating the spirit, Kvenel's legendary weapons were retrieved from his remains.

Kyanka (?b - 2E?)

Second Era Altmer weaponsmith and enchanter. Creator of the Mace of Slurring.
