Irikah Krios

Irikah Krios was a female drell and was the wife of Thane Krios and the mother of Kolyat Krios.

Irikah met her husband through his scope when she threw herself between Thane and his target. Her action was so memorable; Thane made it his mission to meet her. When Thane finally met Irikah, he fell to his knees, apologized for his actions, and begged for her forgiveness. She introduced Thane to the world outside of work, forgave Thane for this actions, and eventually loved him. After a period of time, Thane and Irikah married and Thane was allowed to leave the hanar's service in order to raise a family. Eventually, Thane and Irikah had a son, whom they named Kolyat.

Thane, however, knew only how to use his talents for destruction, so he freelanced while he and Irikah were married. Thane tried his best to keep his work and personal life separate, but Thane became complacent and, consequently, it caught up with him. After staying away too long and killing the leaders of a batarian slaver ring, their associates paid the Shadow Broker to learn who Thane was. However, they went after his family because they were too afraid to go after Thane himself, and killed Irikah in the process.

Thane returned home to Kahje for Irikah's funeral, then after leaving Kolyat in the care of his aunts and uncles, Thane returned to his 'battle sleep' and hunted down the people who had murdered Irikah. Even though Thane was trained to take life quickly, he let the people who killed Irikah linger.
