Born of Darth Krayt
Instead of going into the war immediately, Krayt planned for the future, and because of Lumiya & Caedus, NJO fails to give an attention to Krayt...
War against Abeloth
Krayt: ''There is only one way to stop Abeloth… Jedi and Sith together.''
Krayt demonstrates very decent Force feats and combat skills in this battle.
Dark side of the Force was strong in Krayt, and that darkness was powerful enough to pull GM Luke...
''I can.'' It was a voice that Luke felt rather than heard, a darkness that pulled at him from behind. ''And I will.''
Luke turned to find the form of a shadow-wrapped human approaching from the shore by which Luke had entered the water, the same shore by which all mortals came to the Lake of Apparitions. The silhouette was tall and broad-shouldered, with a head hooded in darkness and glowing eyes that never seemed to match colors, that went from brown to orange and yellow to blue, that sometimes grew dark as ebony and seemed to be not there at all. As the silhouette drew nearer, it began to resemble a man Luke had seen many years before, a man who had appeared only in his dreams-and always shortly before he awoke feeling uneasy and frightened.''
Source: Fate of the Jedi: Apocalypse (2012)
Battle between GM Luke, Darth Krayt and Abeloth goes on ;
''The tattooed stranger stepped in from the left, then slid to the front and drove his stiffened fingers deep into the pit of Abeloth's stomach. A black spray erupted from the wound, and she writhed in pain as the stranger probed for something to grab.
Abeloth loosed a Force blast, trying to drive the stranger off. He held tight. So did Luke, and all three went tumbling across the lake in a snarled mass of limbs and tentacles.''
Source: Fate of the Jedi: Apocalypse (2012)
FORCE DRAIN
Krayt can use Force drain, he used it against both Abeloth and GM Luke ;
''Luke did not understand until an eternity later, when the stranger rolled up on his feet and jerked them all to a halt. The Sith seemed to be growing stronger as Abeloth grew weaker, and there were wisps of dark fume swirling off his shoulders and head. It did not take a Jedi Grand Master to understand that Luke was being betrayed by a Force-draining technique.''
Source: Fate of the Jedi: Apocalypse (2012)
Battle goes on ;
''The draining seemed to continue for days; then the stranger threw back his head and screamed in anguish, and it suddenly seemed that only a breath had passed. Shiny black Force energy began to pour from the Sith's wounds into the lake, spreading outward around them in an oily slick so hot the water began to steam and hiss. Still, the stranger continued to drain Abeloth, and Luke realized that he was not being betrayed-the Sith was suffering as much damage from the attack as was Luke
Then she was gone, leaving the stranger and Luke with nothing between them but twenty centimeters of space and the stump of the Sith's hand, now pointed at Luke's chest and still drawing Force energy, draining it not from Abeloth now, but directly from Luke.
They stayed like that for an eternity, a void of cold nothingness growing inside Luke as the stranger continued to hang in the air above, draining him. It seemed to Luke that the Sith's betrayal was premature, that they at least ought to make certain Abeloth was truly dead before they turned to fighting each other but that was not the way Sith did things.''

FORCE LIGHTNING
Darth Krayt also possesses powerful a Force lightning, which is powerful enough to threaten even GM Luke ;
''The tattooed man stopped and whirled, and Luke found himself preparing to dodge a fork of Force lightning. But the stranger was in no better shape to fight than Luke. He had a gaping wound in his chest, just like Luke, and Luke could see that his entire form was shuddering. Instead of attacking, the Sith just stood staring at them, one eye shining yellow and the other an empty socket, his right arm a useless ghost of a limb.
Then, after an eternity that might have been a mere second, he said, "You must not be so certain of yourself, Master Skywalker. You may think you have stopped the Sith, but you know nothing of us nothing at all."

SWORD AND FIGHTING SKILLS
''I completed training as both jedi and sith. I honed my skills in the clone wars and I've killed thousands of opponents since then.''
- Darth Krayt
A'Sharad's dueling feats applies to Krayt as well, which were holding his own against Aurra Sing & An'ya Kuro while he was a padawan, and holding his own against RotS Obi-Wan while Jedi master. After joining the dark side, his dueling skills should be even better than that.
