Krypton http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krypton is an element. Krypton is made of the group names neutrons protons plus the quasiitems known as electrons. I call those group names as each of those things has parts. This will sound funky but there's more to the electron than a particulate noun can say, perhaps.
one use of krypton is as a chemically neutral filler to light bulbs. The chemical neutrality makes it so that a skinnier filament with higher electrical resistance can be used. higher electrical resistance at a given wire diameter causes brighter light.
a niftier use of krypton is as a global standard wikipedia says
Metric role
In 1960 an international agreement defined the metre in terms of light emitted from a krypton isotope
Yahoo search says: A radioactive isotope of krypton, Kr85, is widely used in the medical field in heart shunt studies
Radioactive krypton-85 is useful for detecting leaks in sealed containers, with the escaping atoms detected by means of their radiation.

you can tell how long various items have been around by measuring their krypton isotope ratios.
If you were like, peculiar, you could breathe a blend of krypton n air then speak with a deeper tone.
a bizarre godlike creature could "store" Bromine or Rubidium kryptons periodic table neighbors as krypton, then just aim a beam of radiation to produce the bromine or rubidium then do reactions. It'd be more effective though to create a giant structured cloud of neon or argon gas such that a radiation source at one of the vertices or center could transmute the Ne or Ar to highly combining elements such that a purpose was structured across space rather like a computer program

Krypton is a noble gas. I guess a gas cloud of krypton is made out of krypton. Because it is a noble gas it will not react with anything to make a crystal, but you can freeze it or precipitate it if you get the temperature low enough. Its also a heavy gas, so if you breathe it in, it might make your voice deeper. Do not try breathing it, it will suffocate you.
ADD:
Xenon Tetraflouride was created due to the low electronegativity of Xenon and the high electronegativity of Fluoride. It is still highly unstable.

Not much. Krypton is a noble gas, so I don't think it bonds with much. The only noble gas molecule I can think of right now is XeF3. Maybe krypton bonds with fluorine too?

as a noble gas, krypton can not bond with any thing, unless an act of fission causes fusion with another noble, i.e XeF4, which would release an insane amount of energy..... I suppose if you need an answer, the only true possibilities are high-tech experimental lasers, or top-secret fusion bombs.

Previous responder is correct; krypton doesn't like to bond with much of anything. I believe that a dichloride has been prepared, but it isn't very stable.
