Kaorak is a living landmass, created from a powerful magic spell cast by Apocalypse (character) using the ideas of the four elements (earth, air, fire and water). Apocalypse intended to do this ritual with the Four Original Horsemen, but none of them had yet reached the level of enlightenment that he needs for this, so instead, he recruited his familiar dæmon Orc to represent Air, Apocalypse bonded Sunfire (comics) with Redroot to represent Earth, he released Vulcan (Marvel Comics) from his prison to represent Fire and Apocalypse himself representing Water. He then used Storm (Marvel Comics) as a focal point for magic and life itself to give life to the barren land of the Autumn Continent.[9]

Karn is a member of the Inheritors from the Spider-Verse storyline who wanders the Multiverse to slay Spider Totems. He first appeared in The Superior Spider-Man #32 (September 2014),[10] and was created by Dan Slott, Christos N. Gage, and Giuseppe Camuncoli.
During the hunt against Master Weaver, he hesitates to deliver the finishing blow, leading to the death of his mother. As a result, he is condemned to wear a mask by his father Solus, and exiled to hunt Spider Totems to earn his place back in the family.[11]
The time-displaced Superior Spider-Man (Otto Octavius's mind in Peter Parker's body) later discovered Karn. Assembling an army of Spider-Men, the Superior Spider-Man and his team ambushed Karn while hunting the Spider-Man of Earth-2818, but despite Karn continuing to gain the upper hand, the Spider-Men only escaped when two of Karn's estranged siblings showed up and began fighting.[11] Karn later joins the Spider-Men in their fight against the Inheritors.[12]
Karn realizes that Master Weaver is his future self. He establishes a new team of multiversal spider-heroes called the Warriors of the Great Web, consisting of Mayday Parker, Spider-Ham, Spider-Man Noir, Spider-Man India, and Spider-Gwen.
During the "Electroverse saga", an alliance of counterparts of Max Dillon invades Loomworld, damaging the great web while forcing the Web-Warriors to retreat to Earth-803. Karn and an alternate version of Doctor Octopus managed to fix the Web, but tangle it at the same time, causing the Web Warriors to become split between realities. Karn's reconnection of Earth-803 into the web also causes an earthquake that frees the Electros caught by the Web-Warriors.[13]
During the Dead No More: The Clone Conspiracy storyline, Karn welcomes Kaine Parker, but soon realizes that he no longer has the powers of the Other and is now dying from a Carrion virus, and cannot go back to his Earth lest someone catch it. Karn shows Kaine many realities with zombie apocalypses caused by this disease, and Kaine decides to visit these realities to find a way to stop it. Kaine tries to keep himself hidden from the Web Warriors while researching, but is caught by Spider-Gwen.[14]
During the "Spider-Geddon" storyline, each of the Spider-Men and Master Weaver has been keeping an eye on Earth-3145 by sending different Spider-Bots to check on them, discovering that while alive, the Inheritors have gotten malnourished from lack of spider life-forces. Unknown to the Spider-Men and apparently to Master Weaver himself, the Inheritors are collecting the heads of the Spider-Bots with Jennix stating that they now have the resources they need.[15] When Spider-UK and Master Weaver get alerted to an Inheritor Cloning Engine on Earth-616, the two of them figure out what is happening. On Earth-3145, Jennix has put the Spider-Bot heads to good use by harvesting their transmitters. As they are unable to send a kill signal to the Inheritor Cloning Engine, Spider-UK advises Master Weaver to call the Web Warriors. When Master Weaver states that nobody can fight the Inheritors and win, Spider-UK states that they'll die trying to keep another world from being destroyed.[16] Karn is then confronted by Verna for having sided with the Web Warriors as they fight to the death. After Karn stabs Verna, she still feeds on him as he is now a Spider-Totem.[17] When Karn's dead body is found by Spider-Nor-Man, it is devoured by Spiders-Man of Earth-11580.[18]
Karn's Powers and abilities
Like the rest of the Inheritors, Karn can drain the life force from other beings through physical contact. Depending on the power of the individual he drains, his powers and vitality can increase substantially. He also has superhuman strength, speed, reflexes, and durability. He has a staff that emits a unique energy signature capable of vaporizing people.[volume & issue needed]
As Master Weaver, Karn threads the Web of Life and Destiny, gaining dominion over various realities. He can open portals at his command or alter realities.

In her debut appearance, Karnilla saves Balder the Brave from being assassinated by Loki; justifying this action by saying that, like everything that existed in Asgard (with the exception of mistletoe) she had promised to protect Balder.[23] She then lends magic to Loki using the Norn stones.[24]
Later, she accidentally grants the supernatural power intended for Loki, to the Wrecker.[25] Then allying with Loki, and tricking Sif into animating the Destroyer.[26] During this plan, she becomes romantically attracted to Balder.[27] She declares her love for Balder, but is spurned.[28] Heartbroken, she pits Balder against the ''Legion of the Lost''.[29] She tries to tempt Balder to renounce his service to Odin,[30] and then capture Balder.[31] She then saves Balder and the Warriors Three from the Thermal Man.[32]

After a while, she is rejected again by Balder, who had given up his career as a warrior on returning from the dead.[40] Undaunted, she abducts Balder and his new beloved, Nanna. Karnilla forces Balder to agree to marry her, in order to save Nanna's life.[41] With Loki, she later releases a Snow Giant to battle Thor, but she then betrays Loki and is defeated by him.[42] She then seeks Balder's forgiveness for Nanna's death.[43]
Karnilla reveals the location of the Rose of Purity to the Enchantress.[44] Subsequently, she joins Loki and Tyr in an alliance against Odin.[45] Later, she is petitioned by Balder to join forces with Asgard against Surtur.[46]
Karnilla then schemes to keep Balder with her in Nornheim.[47] However, she eventually comes to regret her actions after realising that she had truly fallen in love with him.[volume & issue needed] She is then captured by Utgard-Loki and the Frost Giants, who torment and humiliate her by cutting her long black hair down to a flat top and forcing her to be their slave.[48] She is returned to Nornheim after being rescued by Balder and Agnar[49]
She later saves Balder from the forces of Seth.[50] Some of her subjects which had been turned to stone are then returned to life, although still stone.[51] Karnilla joins a resistance force against the death-goddess Hela. Her allies include the Warriors Three, the wolf-prince Hrimhari, various troll races and the mortal New Mutants. They accomplish their goal of saving Odin from death at the hands of Hela.[52]
Following the Fear Itself storyline, Karnilla begins to prepare an attack on the now-Earthbound Asgard. Her first assault intends to replace Thor (killed by the Serpent with a wound that created a rift in time and space) with a new thunder god Taranus (really a disguised Ulik), with the memories of all Thor's allies being altered so that they remember Taranus rather than Thor, save for Loki.[53]
Karnilla comes to the defense of Asgard when Hela's armies of the dead threaten it.[54]

Fictional character biography
Karthon is a member of the scaly-skinned subspecies of Homo mermanus called Lemurians. He served Naga as the foremost of his "Questers", searching on behalf of the undersea kingdom of Lemuria to retrieve the legendary Serpent Crown, which had been lost beneath the sea by Paul Destine. Namor found the Crown at the same time as Karthon.[66] The two fought over the Serpent Crown. Karthon told Namor that the Crown would allow the Lemurians to conquer the world, but Namor revealed to Karthon that the Crown was actually a vessel empowered by the demonic Elder God Set. As the two fought, Captain Barracuda and his crew inadvertently captured them in an electrified net. Namor broke free and fought Barracuda's forces, while Karthon took the Serpent Crown and fled back towards Lemuria.[67]
Namor managed to catch up with Karthon and the two continued to fight over it until Karthon subdued Namor and subverted his will. The two traveled to Lemuria, where Karthon returned the Serpent Crown to Naga. Naga ordered Namor's death, and when Karthon refused to murder him, Naga struck Karthon down using the Serpent Crown and sent the other Questers to attack Namor. Namor collapsed the royal chamber over Naga's throne.[68] Karthon tried to hold back the vengeful Namor, who tossed both Karthon and the other Questers aside. Karthon asked Naga to stay his hand against Namor, and Naga instead obliterated the other Questers. The despondent Karthon asked Naga to destroy him as well, but Naga wished to keep Karthon as his enforcer. When Naga caused the death of Karthon's sister Llyna, Karthon became enraged by this final betrayal and slew Naga from behind with his sword. Karthon nearly fell to the evil call of the Serpent Crown, but Namor placed the Crown on Naga's corpse, which was then pulled into a great fissure which opened in the ocean floor.[69] The Lemurians proclaimed Karthon their new king, and he accepted, vowing to end Lemuria's history of despotic rulers. Karthon's rule is wise and just, and the Lemurians became allies of the Atlanteans.[69] Llyra, the High Priestess of Set, managed to subdue Karthon and usurp the leadership of Lemuria for herself. When Namor tried to recruit Karthon and his nation as allies of Atlantis, he found Llyra ruling the city. Namor defeated Llyra and returned Karthon to the throne.[70]
Karthon attended the wedding of Namor and Dorma, and assisted Namor and the Atlanteans against Attuma's attacking forces.[71]

Millions of years ago, after the Celestials had created the Skrull Eternals, Deviants and Prime, the Deviant Skrulls wiped out the other two branches believing that they themselves were the superior branch, leaving only one member of each wiped branch. Kly'bn was the last Skrull Eternal, who convinced the Deviant Skrulls and their Queen Sl'gur't that killing him would be killing themselves, as he was the embodiment of the idea of the Skrull and it was his destiny to lead the Skrulls into changing the other worlds with their truth. Sl'gur't embraced his ideas and became lovers with the two becoming gods of the Skrull Pantheon. Since Kly'bn was unable to shapeshift, Sl'gur't vowed to never keep her form for too long in contrast to her husband.[103] The couple together wrote the Book of World Skrull, where there was written three prophesies. These prophesies told about the eventual destruction of the Skrull homeworld and about Earth being the new home for the Skrulls. These prophesies were the main reason of the events of "Secret Invasion", being a holy war for the Skrulls.[103][104] When the God Squad arrived at their fortress via Nightmare's realm, Kly'bn and Sl'gur't were forced into battling them. Sl'gur't was eaten by the Demogorge, but since she represented multiple different deities, the Demogorge exploded due for being too much. Sl'gur't then started a shapeshifting battle against Amatsu-Mikaboshi, with them copying each other. Eventually, Mikaboshi in Sl'gur't form killed Sl'gur't who was in Mikaboshi's form, allowing him to replace her. After Kly'bn killed Ajak, Hercules started battling Kly'bn. Hercules was able to defeat Kly'bn, after Snowbird impaled him with the spine of the Demogorge.[103]

Kobik is a physical manifestation of a Cosmic Cube in the Marvel Comics universe.
The character, created by Chris Bachalo, first appeared in Marvel NOW! Point One #1 (June 2015).
Within the context of the stories, Kobik originated from a S.H.I.E.L.D. project using fragments of Cosmic Cubes. The pieces merge into a single being that adopts the form of a child. Kobik becomes a member of the Thunderbolts.[109]
During her time affiliated with S.H.I.E.L.D., Kobik is involved in the Pleasant Hill project, where supervillains are taken to a pre-created town and brainwashed to act as normal civilians. At the same time, Kobik comes into contact with the Red Skull, the Cube's past experience with the Skull giving her a certain attachment to him. Using his influence on her, the Skull is able to convince her of Hydra being a noble organization. Kobik later makes contact with the elderly Steve Rogers during a stand-off where his life is in danger, and as a consequence of the Skull's manipulation, she not only reverts him to his youthful state but also rewrites his history so that he has been a Hydra sleeper agent since childhood. As Hydra's "Secret Empire" rises to power in the United States, Kobik begins to regretfully rewrite Rogers' mind, but it is revealed that the memory of his original, good conscious has remained hidden in her mind. The original Steve Rogers tries to convince Kobik to undo her mistakes, but she believes it is too late and is frightened of Hydra Rogers. Making things worse, in the real world Arnim Zola implants a Cosmic Cube into Rogers' physical body during the Resistance's hopeful raid on Hydra's main base, led by Sam Wilson. However, the good Rogers manages to get through to her, and eventually, they are both saved by Bucky Barnes and Scott Lang, who takes away Hydra Rogers’ ability to use both the Cosmic Cube and Mjolnir, allowing the real Captain America to defeat his mind-altered self.

Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter featuring Robert E. Howard's hero Conan the Barbarian.

Another version of the Kraken (four-armed and reptilian in appearance) debuted in Marvel Comics Presents #121 (January 1993). It returned in Marvel Action Hour featuring the Fantastic Four #2–4 (December 1994 – February 1995) and in the one shot title Namora #1 (August 2010); it would later be featured in the video game Marvel Ultimate Alliance.[137] A Kraken (a horned squid creature) appeared in the 2009 one-shot comic Sub-Mariner Comics: 70th Anniversary Special.,[138] while another (a house sized crab/octopus hybrid) appeared in Fantomex Max issues #2 and #3.[139] This Kraken was modified into a remote controlled cyborg to protect an underwater base of a brilliant scientist.

Daniel Whitehall
Daniel Whitehall is a British intelligence agent also known as the Kraken.[143]
An elite assassin and member of the terrorist organization Hydra, he also used the name and debuted in Secret Warriors #2 (March 2009). Writer/artist Jonathan Hickman stated in an interview with Comic Book Resources that "Kraken" is a new character. The other Hydra character with that name [Commander Kraken] was "a real b-list character and pretty lame. Our Kraken... has a long and elaborate history and we're going to be delving into that in a major way".[144] Kraken is a legendary Hydra agent, whose existence had been unverifiable, until recently. Any S.H.I.E.L.D. agents that tried to find documented proof all disappeared. The Kraken preferred to work behind the scenes, seeing it as his mission to help people become what they are meant to be, usually with dangerous results. For decades, he was responsible for developing Hydra's best assets, training their best talent. This involved a lot of human trafficking, theft, and murder. He was the head of the school that trained orphaned girls (including Ophelia Sarkissian) into human weapons. The original Kraken is Whitehall, but a second version stole his equipment and read his journals.[145]
Jake Fury
It is revealed that this second version is actually Jake Fury having infiltrated Hydra's highest rungs to help Nick Fury bring about its destruction.[146]
Unnamed
A new Kraken is seen when the new Madame Hydra is collecting members for the HYDRA High Council to assist Captain America, whose history had been altered by the Red Skull's clone using the powers of Kobik to include him always being a member of HYDRA. It is implied this person is someone Steve Rogers knows and believes to be dead.[147]

Kurse is the name of two fictional characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
Algrim
Kurse was originally the most powerful of a race of Dark Elves and known as Algrim the Strong[173] He is coerced by the Dark Elf ruler Malekith the Accursed to fight the Asgardian God of Thunder and superhero, Thor. Malekith, however, betrays Algrim while he is fighting Thor, and in a bid to destroy the Thunder God orders that a pitfall beneath the two be opened. Thor saves himself courtesy of his mystical hammer Mjolnir, while Algrim falls into lava. Algrim's enchanted armor saves his life, but he is critically injured and develops amnesia from the shock, and is left with an obsessive desire for revenge.[174]
Algrim is later healed by the cosmic entity the Beyonder, who transforms him into the much more powerful being called Kurse. The Beyonder transports Kurse to Earth to battle Thor, but Kurse mistakes Thor's ally Beta Ray Bill for Thor and battles him.[175] Kurse then battles the juvenile superhero team Power Pack.[176] Thor dons his magical belt of strength to double his strength and confronts Kurse, but the Beyonder doubles Kurse's strength as well. With the assistance of Power Pack, Thor and Bill are able to overcome Kurse, and Thor helps him remember that it was Malekith, not Thor, who is to blame for his suffering.[177] The Beyonder then transports Kurse to Hel at Thor's suggestion, to frustrate Hela, the Goddess of Death.[178]
Kurse later confronts and severely beats Loki, who had been disguised as Malekith. Drawing off, he leaves Loki injured and finds someone who seems to be Balder the Brave, surrounded by legions of Asgardians. He barrels through them and slays his target, who turns out to be the true Malekith. After repenting, he is granted citizenship among the Asgardians.[179]
He is designated as the guardian of the children of Asgard after helping to protect Volstagg's daughter and adopted sons during a plague,[180] and loyally serves Asgard until the time of Ragnarok. At the time of Ragnarok, all the Asgardians apparently perish, with the exception of Thor.[181]
Kurse is later captured by Malekith, who strips him of the armor. Algrim is sent to Nastrond Prison where he is forced to serve out the rest of the sentence of Wazaria, a former member of the League of Realms. Malekith forces Wazaria to don the armor, transforming her into the new Kurse. Before he is imprisoned, Algrim encourages his successor to kill herself the first chance she gets.[182]
Waziria
Waziria is a Dark Elf witch of the Dove Gut Tribe in Svartalfheim.[183]
When Malekith escaped from his imprisonment and attacked his village, he cut off Waziria's left arm when using her as a hostage when Thor and his fellow Asgardians arrived.[184] After recuperating, Waziria joined up with the League of Realms to hunt down Malekith.[185]
When the League of Realms split, only Waziria remained with Thor. During a meeting with the Dark Elf ruling council called the Council of the Unhallowed, Thor accused Waziria of being the traitor and that she gave Malekith the information to stay one step ahead of him, only for both to learn that it was Thor himself who had been bugged. Malekith then makes himself known.[183] Before Malekith can kill Thor, the League of Realms showed up to help fight Malekith. The Council of the Unhallowed made the decision to side with Malekith. When the Congress of the Worlds planned to have Malekith rule Svartalfheim after he is done with his life sentence in Nastrond Prison, Malekith made Waziria his proxy while Malekith named Scumtongue his senator for the Congress of the Worlds.[186]
After stripping Algrim of his armor, Malekith transformed Waziria into the new Kurse while Algrim takes Waziria's place in Nastrond Prison.[182]
During the "War of the Realms" storyline, Kurse was present with Malekith as he begins his invasion on Midgard.[187] She and Enchantress fight She-Hulk and Ghost Rider until Jane Foster slams Skidbladnir into Enchantress.[188] After the Queen of Angels has no knowledge on why her soldier Fernande sided with Spider-Man and the League of Realms, Malekith states that he is leaving Kurse to assist her.[189] In London, Volstagg controls the Destroyer Armor to defeat Kurse.[190]

K'ythri is a fictional deity created by Warren Ellis and Carlos Pacheco and first appeared as a depiction along with his wife Sharra in Starjammers #1.
According to the Shi'ar mythology, the two chief deities, K'ythri and Sharra, were the creators of the universe. At first, they were enemies to each other, but were then forced into marriage, in which they found love. At their day of marriage, K'ythri presented her the M'Kraan Crystal as their sign of love.[198][199]
They were worshipped by the Shi'ar for millennia, until they were killed by Amatsu-Mikaboshi,[200] but it seems that they had come back to life.[201]
They were then convinced by Loki that they needed to force the new Thor to take part on their Challenge of Gods in order to prove their superiority. Even though they outscored Thor, thanks to their disposition to cause mass suffering in order complete certain tasks, the challenge's officiate Shadrak declared Thor as the winner, since she inspired the Asgardians gods to help her in defense.[201] Infuriated, they called upon "their sister" the Phoenix Force to destroy all reality, but with the help of Quentin Quire, Thor and the Asgardians appeased the Phoenix Force. Sharra and K'ythri were then imprisoned in Omnipotence City, since they had broken the divine law.[201]
