Chak Krist, a male Human Imperial Officer, existed during the Galactic Civil War era. Subsequent to the Battle of Yavin, Krist was stationed on the world of Dathomir, where an incident occurred at the Imperial Research and Prison Facility. Krist contracted the Blackwing virus, transforming him into an undead being. Eventually, his reanimated form met its end at the hands of a spacer located in the Quarantine Zone.
Within the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, Chak Krist appeared as a non-player character. This massively multiplayer online roleplaying game was created by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts; the game was shut down on December 15, 2011. Krist was introduced to the game with "Game Update 14," which launched on October 12, 2009. He functioned as one of the Undead boss enemies within the Quarantine Zone, whom players needed to defeat to fulfill a collection.
