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]).

Disheveled-appearing Bajoran with a history of minor criminal offenses, who was being held at Deep Space 9 station security for drunkenness when the Cardassian Aamin Marritza was held in 2369 on suspicion of having committed war crimes. 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.

Kajada was thought to be the only survivor from her ship, but a series of strange events convinced her that Vantika was still alive, and it was later learned her nemesis had transferred his consciousness to Dr. Julian Bashir. Vantika was eventually subdued and his consciousness was transferred to an energy-containment cell, where Kajada ended her twenty-year pursuit with one blast from her weapon. (“The Passenger” [DS9]).

This defense system killed several Enterprise crew members when the ship surveyed the planetoid in 2268. (“That Which Survives” [TOS]).

There are no known instances of anyone not involved with that mining accident contracting the disease, so a positive diagnosis makes it virtually certain that an individual has been at that infamous death camp. Cardassian citizen Aamin Marritza was diagnosed with Kalla-Nohra at Deep Space 9 in 2369, and was subsequently suspected of having been Gallitep commander Gul Darhe'el. It was later found that Darhe'el was not at Gallitep at the time of the accident, so he could not have contracted Kalla-Nohra, and therefore Marritza could not have been Darhe'el. Marritza had been impersonating Darhe'el because he had hoped that a trial would have forced his people to admit the atrocities committed at Gallitep. (“Duet” [DS9]).

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 extremely alluring. When she came aboard the Enterprise -D, Kamala was in the final stages of the Finiis'ral stage of sexual maturity. This caused some disruptions aboard the ship. Kamala was 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]).

Library computer analysis indicated that nearly every surviving eyewitness to Kodos's crimes had been murdered, and that each murder had taken place when the Karidian Company of Players was nearby.

Keeler was an idealistic believer in humanity who worked to help those in her care survive for the future that she foresaw. Keeler, who died in an automobile accident in 1931, was a focal point in the flow of time. When Dr. McCoy, accidentally in Earth's past, prevented her death, he unknowingly changed the course of Earth history. Keeler became a strong advocate for peace, delaying the United State's entry into World War II long enough for Nazi Germany to develop weapons that permitted Hitler to conquer the world. In this altered future, the Starship Enterprise did not explore the cosmos in the 23rd century. Kirk and Spock, who followed McCoy into the past, were forced to allow Keeler's death to restore the shape of time. This task was made infinitely more difficult when Kirk fell in love with Keeler.

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]). K'Ehleyr served as a Federation ambassador to the K'mpec government, and helped orchestrate K'mpec's scheme to appoint an outsider as his Arbiter of Succession. Worf remained unaware that he was a father until K'Ehleyr returned to the Enterprise -D in 2367. She was at the time accompanying K'mpec for the meeting in which he asked Jean-Luc Picard, an outsider, to serve 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.
