Krag was a captain of the Zorbian space pirates. During the Imperial Period, he sought a valuable Gemwood tree. Knowing that such a plant was owned by the Ewoks of Bright Tree Village, he led an expedition to the forest moon of Endor. There, after assailing and capturing the Ewok Teebo, Krag and his men were able to capture not only the village's leader, Chief Chirpa, but the entirety of its fighting force.

Taking Chirpa hostage, Krag and his men marched into Bright Tree Village unopposed. Negotiations were briefly carried out by Chirpa's daughter, Princess Kneesaa a Jari Kintaka, but turned sour when Krag made advances towards her. The princess had been prepared for the pirates, however: she and her fellow Ewoks had devised an elaborate series of traps with which to incapacitate Krag and his men. Beaten by a group of Ewok women and children, Krag and his men opted for a hasty retreat.
