Kro

"I understand now. I can see what she saw. So many planets. So much life destroyed every time a Celestial is born. Arishem used us, and left us to die with each Emergence. We just wanted to survive."

- Kro to Thena

Kro was the leader of the Deviants and enemy of the Eternals. Kro came to Earth thousands of years ago, but was trapped in ice for millennia. Due to glacial melting, he and a legion of Deviants were set free. Kro then killed Ajak and gained her powers of regeneration. He then traveled to London, fighting several of his foes and surviving due to his new powers. After killing Gilgamesh during the Ambush at Druig's Compound in the, Kro gained a sentience never before experienced by a Deviant. Kro came to realize how both Eternals and Deviants were being used, motivating him further to kill all Eternals. He followed them as they tried to stop the Emergence, but was ultimately killed by Thena after failing to absorb her powers.

Creation
Kro was a Deviant, created by the Celestial, Arishem the Judge. Kro and a pack of Deviants were sent to Earth in ancient times, but ended up trapped and frozen in ice in Alaska.

Regaining Consciousness
In 2023, as a result of the Blip, glacial melting caused Kro and his pack to defrost, and they roamed the ice sheets hunting for prey. Not long after waking up, Kro and his pack found and slaughtered a group of oil workers. They were discovered by the Eternal Ikaris, who brought Ajak to Alaska, betraying her and throwing her down onto the ice sheet. Kro was waiting at the entrance to his cave, and ambushed Ajak as she fought back against the pack of Deviants. Kro used his ability of power absorption to first murder, then steal the powers of Ajak, before dumping her corpse on the ice and vanishing into his cave.

Within the cave, the hound-like Kro underwent his first metamorphis, a result of taking the powers of an Eternal. It changed his biology and appearance, and as he rallied his pack to him with a roar, he transformed them too, giving them more fearsome forms. Kro and his pack then set out to hunt down the other Eternals.

Invading London
"It knows where we are!" "How?" "I don't know!"

- Sprite to Sersi

Kro emerged from the lake in London and started to chase Eternals Sersi, Sprite and human Dane Whitman. In order to trick the Deviant, Sprite used her powers to create multiple illusions of her and Sersi, but Kro was able to identify the real ones. Kro almost succeeded in killing Sprite, but was stopped by Ikaris and his optical beams. Despite being harmed, he healed himself due to absorbing Ajak's healing powers. Even though Kro was stronger, he still was no match for Ikaris and probably only survived because of Ajak's regeneration, so he escaped without leaving a trace.

Attack On Druig's Compound
Kro later ordered Deviants to attack Druig’s Compound in the Amazons, creating an ambush. While the others were fighting ther rest of the Eternals, Kro attacked Ikaris from behind, but before he could absorb Ikaris’ powers and life, Gilgamesh, thus saving Ikaris’ life and started to fight him.

Killing Gilgamesh
Even though Gilgamesh was winning due to his super strength, Kro noticed Thena, Gilgamesh's Eternal partner who was said by him to stay still due to her mental instability because of a disease known as Mahd Wy'ry, that was destroying her mind. Before Kro could get to Thena, Gilgamesh sacrificed his life to save Thena, as Kro started absorbing Gilgamesh’s powers, thus killing him.

Gaining Sentience
"I will kill you all for what you have done to my kind."

- Kro

Now with the absorbed energy of two Eternals, Kro evolved into a humanoid and intelligent version of himself, contemplating himself and his existence, and now understanding the true purpose Arishem gave to him. He now seeks vengeance for his kind being brutally butchered and killed, proclaiming the Eternals as "murderers”, right after escaping from Ikaris’ optical beams.

Fight Against Thena
"Give me your hand... Ah it's a shame. You and I, we're just tools of a god, built to kill. Thena, remember." "I remember."

- Kro to Thena

Kro later followed where Tiamut the Communicator is about to emerge and attacked Ikaris, and tried to absorb his energy, but was prevented from doing so by Phastos, who despite being fighting Ikaris, knew that Kro would become more powerfull if he absorbed one more Eternal energy. Kro showed the powers he took from Gilgamesh, goading Thena, but Makkari tried to stop him, running in circles arround the Deviant, but he was able to stop her, and even tried to absorb her powers, being stop by Phastos, who shooted him into a cave.

Thena followed him, wanting to avenge Gilgamesh’s death. They started to duel, but Thena started to be affected by Mahd Wy'ry, allowing Kro to lure her by imitating GIlgamesh's voice. He then rolls up Thena in his tentacles and tries to absorb her energy too, but fails due to her remembering Gilgamesh's advice from not forgetting. She then frees herself and wields two cosmic blades to dismember Kro, killing him instantly.

Personality
"I will kill you all for what you have done to my kind. You are not saviors, Eternals. You are murderers."

- Kro to Thena and Gilgamesh

Prior to gaining sentience, Kro was little more than a monstrous beast, violent and destructive. After killing the Eternal Ajak and taking her power, Kro gained a desire of self preservation, healing himself during fights. When he gained full sentience after killing another Eternal, Gilgamesh, Kro became bitter, cold and furious at the Eternals for allowing the cycle of Celestial destruction to continue. He was cunning and manipulative towards Thena, taking advantage of her mental condition in an attempt to convince her that he was Gilgamesh. Kro despised the Celestials too, and wanted to destroy the Eternals to sabotage Arishem the Judge.
