An enemy in the hit Xbox 360 game Gears of War. They do not appear until later
in the game, and resemble small bat-like creatures that deal a massive amount of damage if
the main character, Marcus Fenix, strays out of direct light. These creatures also guard the game's final boss, General RAAM. They very much resemble
the creatures in the film Pitch Black staring Vin Deisel.
"I
accidently ran out of the light of the
propane tank I had just shot, and got pwnd by the Kryll!"
"RAAM wouldn't be so
freaking hard if the f****** Kryll weren't surrounding him."
