Federation special emissary who supervised the return of the Klingon sleeper ship T’Ong to Klingon space in 2365. K’Ehleyr was responsible for averting a potential crisis, since the crew of the T’Ong believed the Klingon Empire was still at war with the Federation. K’Ehleyr’s mother was human, and her father was Klingon. She said that she had inherited her mother’s sense of humor, but her father’s Klingon temper. K’Ehleyr had been romantically involved with Worf in 2359, but the relationship remained unresolved until 2365, when K’Ehleyr was assigned to the Enterprise -D to deal with the T’Ong crisis. K’Ehleyr and Worf nearly took the Klingon marriage oath at the time, when, unbeknownst to Worf, their liaison resulted in the conception of a child, Alexander Rozhenko. (“The Emissary” [TNG]). Worf remained unaware that he was a father until K’Ehleyr returned to the Enterprise -D in 2367. K’Ehleyr also served as a Federation ambassador to the K’mpec government. When K’mpec learned he was dying of slow poison in 2367, K’Ehleyr helped orchestrate his scheme to appoint Jean-Luc Picard, an outsider, as his Arbiter of Succession. K’Ehleyr was murdered by Duras during the rite of succession, after K’Ehleyr began to uncover evidence of Duras’s wrongdoings. Worf subsequently claimed the right of vengence under Klingon law and killed Duras. Worf also accepted custody of his son, Alexander, who remained with him aboard the Enterprise -D. (“Reunion” [TNG]). Suzie Plakson had previously played the Vulcan Dr. Selar in “The Schizoid Man” (TNG) and the Q female in “The Q and the Grey” (VGR).

Chancellor of the Klingon High Council who presided over that body longer than anyone else in history, using an iron hand to maintain peace within the council and the empire itself. One of K’mpec’s greatest political challenges came in 2366, when evidence emerged implicating the late Ja’rod, father of council member Duras, of having committed treason. The politically powerful Duras attempted to suppress the fact that his father had betrayed his people to the Romulans at Khitomer. K’mpec feared that exposing Duras would plunge the empire into civil war, so he gave tacit support to a plan whereby the late Mogh would be blamed for the massacre. K’mpec did not realize that Mogh’s sons, Worf and Kurn, would return to the homeworld to challenge this injustice, an appeal that K’mpec was not willing to hear in open council. K’mpec eventually agreed to allow Worf to accept discommendation, sparing both of Mogh’s sons from death, while retaining some semblance of peace in the High Council. (“Sins of the Father” [TNG]). K’mpec was murdered in 2367, apparently poisoned with Veridium Six by Duras, who sought to succeed K’mpec as council leader. Under Klingon custom, such a killing was without honor because the killer did not show his face to the victim. Seeking to protect his empire from leadership by such a dishonorable person, K’mpec took the highly unorthodox step of appointing a non-Klingon, Jean-Luc Picard, as his Arbiter of Succession. K’mpec was succeeded by Gowron, a political newcomer. (“Reunion” [TNG]). Charles Cooper also played General Korrd in Star Trek V.

K’mtar posed as the gin’tak to the House of Mogh and claimed he was sent to protect against an attack on the family. In reality, he was there to train his younger self to be a warrior. In this Alexander’s future, Alexander had grown up to become a diplomat and peacemaker. This Alexander tried to end the feuding between the great houses by publicly announcing that the House of Mogh would no longer seek retribution. The future Worf had warned this Alexander not to show such weakness, but Alexander called him “a relic from an earlier time” and said that a new era of peace was at hand. His enemies moved against him, killing Worf on the floor of the High Council chamber. Filled with remorse, this Alexander journeyed back in time, calling himself K’mtar, to try to cause his younger self to become a Klingon warrior. (“Firstborn” [TNG]). It is not known what influence the future Alexander had on his younger self, and therefore it is not known if Worf will be killed on the floor of the High Council.

It tells of how Kahless the Unforgettable stood heroically with the Lady Lukara against 500 warriors at the Great Hall of Qam-Chee. Kahless and Lukara were the only survivors of that battle, after which she agreed to become his wife. Worf, who had been oblivious to the romantic attentions of Jadzia Dax, realized his passion for her in 2373 after sharing with her a holosuite opera version of this classic story.

Klingon mythic-historic figure, a great warrior who united the Klingon Empire (“The Savage Curtain” [TOS]) some 1,500 years ago. The story of Kahless is a cornerstone of Klingon mythology and religion. (“Birthright, Part II” [TNG]). Legend has it that the messianic Kahless fought the tyrant Molor, whom he killed with the first bat’leth or sword of honor. Another of the epic tales of Kahless relates how he fought his brother, Morath, for 12 days and 12 nights because Morath had lied and brought shame to his family (“New Ground” [TNG]). Worf had a statue in his quarters depicting that heroic struggle (“Reunion” [TNG]). Legend also states that Kahless used his bat’leth to conquer the Fek’Ihri and skin the serpent of Xol. Kahless also once used his sword to harvest his father’s field and carve a statue of his beloved. (“The Sword of Kahless” [DS9]). He is reputed to have fought off an entire army single-handedly at Three Turn Bridge. (“Let He Who Is Without Sin…” [DS9]).
Kahless was not only known as a great warrior. His courtship of Lady Lukara, who agreed to be his wife after they together withstood the attack of 500 warriors at the Great Hall at Qam-Chee. The story of Kahless and Lukara is considered to be the greatest romance in Klingon history. (“Looking for par’Mach in All the Wrong Places” [DS9]). Kahless once said: “Destroying an empire to win a war is no victory. And ending a battle to save an empire is no defeat.” (“The Way of the Warrior” [DS9]). Klingon warriors would often pray to Kahless for guidance before going into battle. (“Blood Oath” [DS9]). They believe that warriors who die honorably join Kahless, who awaits them in Sto-Vo-Kor, the afterlife. Just before his death, Kahless pointed to a star in the sky and promised that he would one day return there. Klingon clerics established a monastery on Boreth, a planet orbiting that star, where they waited for centuries for Kahless to return. SEE: Quin’lat; Story of the Promise, The.
In the 24th century, the clerics of Boreth devised an elaborate scheme whereby preserved cellular material from Kahless was cloned to produce a replica of the original Kahless. The replica was programmed with all the ancient teachings and parables, and actually believed he was the real Kahless. The deception was quickly discovered, but Worf, son of Mogh, pointed out that the new Kahless could be considered the rightful heir to the throne. With the support of High Council leader Gowron, the new Kahless was installed in 2369 as ceremonial emperor of the Klingon people. (“Rightful Heir” [TNG]). When Worf was a boy, a vision of Kahless appeared to him and told him that he would do something no other Klingon had ever done. (“The Sword of Kahless” [DS9]). Another (presumably less accurate) copy of Kahless was created by the Excalbians in 2269, when they were attempting to study the human concepts of “good” and “evil” (“The Savage Curtain” [TOS]). Several episodes, notably “Birthright, Part II” (TNG) and “Rightful Heir” (TNG), have revealed fragments of the legend of Kahless, but the entire story still remains to be told. Kahless, as seen in “The Savage Curtain” (TOS), when he was played by Robert Herron, appeared very different from Kahless as seen in “Rightful Heir” (TNG), when he was played by Kevin Conway. One might rationalize that this might have been because the image of Kahless created by Yarnek was drawn from the mind of James Kirk, who may not have known what the “real” Kahless looked like. Of course, in truth “The Savage Curtain” was filmed many years before “Rightful Heir,” prior to the introduction of the more elaborate Klingon makeup designs first used in Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

Ghojmok or nursemaid to young Worf, while his family was living on Khitomer, at the time of the Khitomer massacre of 2346. She was rescued, along with Worf, by the crew of the U.S.S. Intrepid. Kahlest was taken to Starbase 24 for treatment, and she later returned to the Klingon Homeworld and took up residence in seclusion in the old city. Captain Picard visited her there in 2366 when Worf’s family was facing dishonor because of falsified evidence that Worf’s father, Mogh, had betrayed the empire at Khitomer. Kahlest knew nothing of Mogh’s activities, but the existence of an eyewitness to the events at Khitomer was enough to force High Council leader K’mpec to accept a compromise. Kahlest had known K’mpec in their younger days, and K’mpec had been attracted to her, but according to Kahlest, “He was too fat.” (“Sins of the Father” [TNG]).

Lenara Kahn developed a theory for creating artificial wormholes. In 2372 she led a team of scientists to conduct field tests to demonstrate her theories. The team used the U.S.S. Defiant and were successful in creating a stable wormhole that was open for 23.4 seconds, making it the first artificially created wormhole in Federation history. Lenara was a Trill who was joined with the Kahn symbiont. During the stable wormhole tests of 2372, Lenara worked with Jadzia Dax, a Trill who had (in a previous joining) been Torias Dax. Years ago, Nilani Kahn (a previous Kahn host) and Torias Dax had been married. Jadzia and Lenara felt a great desire to continue their relationship, despite the fact that Trill social mores prohibited their reassociation. Though Jadzia felt strong enough to go against Trill taboo, Lenara didn’t wish to risk exile for reassociating with Dax. Lenara Kahn returned to Trill to continue her work. (“Rejoined” [DS9]). In 2373, Kahn devised a method to permanently close the Bajoran wormhole without damaging it or harming the wormhole aliens within. (“In Purgatory’s Shadow” [DS9]).

Kainon was very vocal about his desire not to share the same prison with any Cardassian citizen. When Marritza was found to be innocent of the charges and set free, Kainon took justice into his own hands, killing the Cardassian, not for any crime, but just because he was Cardassian.

Raised from childhood to fulfill her role as an instrument of peace, Kamala was fated to wed Chancellor Alrik of Valt Minor. Kamala was a beautiful woman, and her ability to change into whatever a potential mate desired made her irresistable to men. When she came on-board the Enterprise -D, Kamala was in the final stages of the Finiis’ral stage of sexual maturity, causing disruptions aboard the ship. Kamala had been intended to bond to Alrik, but when circumstances put her in close contact with Captain Picard, she bonded to him. Kamala said she liked the way she was when she was with Picard, and added that there was no greater joy for a metamorph. But Kamala had learned a sense of duty from her bonding with Picard, and chose to go through with the ceremony, to seal the peace for her people. (“The Perfect Mate” [TNG]).

Kamin was known as the best ironweaver in the community of Ressik, but he preferred to play his tin flute. Kamin was the husband of Eline and the father of two children, Meribor and Batai. Kamin’s life was recorded and sent out on an interstellar probe, launched as a final memory of the people of Kataan, when they discovered their sun was to go nova. When the Enterprise -D encountered the probe in 2368, Captain Picard was rendered unconscious by the probe and experienced Kamin’s entire adult life in the span of 25 minutes.
