Kor, son of Rynar, was a male Klingon from the Duyi'zu Universe, he was a military officer and ambassador to the Alliance of Nations following the later part of the First Great War and the Multiversial Federation. In the United Federation of Planets, he was known chiefly as being partly responsible for the institution of the Treaty of Organia that ended the Beta Quadrant war with the UFP and for being an adversary of Starfleet Captain James T. Kirk and Chancellor Gowron and a friend of Kang, Koloth, Curzon, and later Jadzia Dax, Anakin Skywalker, as well as Worf, son of Mogh. He was the last son of the House of Kor and descendant of the Klingon Imperial Family, was among the most influential warriors and respected military leaders of the Klingon Empire during the First War. He also had a son. He was descended from Klingons affected with the augment virus created in 2154 (1321 NE), a product of 22nd century Klingon genetic engineering. By the 24th century, he was cosmetically indistinguishable from an average Klingon.
Kor was descended from Klingons affected with the augment virus created, a product of 22nd century Klingon genetic engineering. By the 24th century, he was cosmetically indistinguishable from an average Klingon. Kor had thought in many wars and battles from the days of the Klingon Empire as well as served as councillor of the Multiversial Federation, until the era of civil conflict rose, realising the Federation was run by corrupt Confederalists who once affiliated with the long defunct Nationalist Alliance and decided to give his final moments of fighting in a glorious battle.
Biography[]
Early Life[]
Kor, son of Rynar, was the head of the House of Kor, and was descended from the Klingon Imperial Family.
Military Career[]
In 2267 (1414 NE), following the breakdown of peace talks between the Federation and the Klingon Empire, a Federation-Klingon War broke out. When the Klingon Empire joined forces with the Axis of Empires, he fought in many military conflicts with not just the Federation but their new allies of the Alliance of Nations: The Galactic Republic, the Human-Vortigaunt Federation
The neutral planet of Organia, located in a strategic position between the two major powers in the Alpha and Beta Quadrants, became a political hot spot between the Klingon Empire and the Federation.
In (XXXX NE) Commander Kor led a battalion of five hundred Klingon soldiers in an invasion and occupation of Organia, where he briefly became their military governor. As governor, Kor ruthlessly maintained order on the planet, ruling with an iron fist by maintaining a stringent list of rules, any violation of which was punishable by death. Unknown to Kor at the time, Admiral Kirk, posing as an Organian, and Lieutenant Commander Spock, posing as a dealer in kevas and trillium, were among the subjugated. The two Starfleet officers mounted vain guerrilla attacks against Kor and his army. Meanwhile, in orbit around Organia, the Klingon and Federation fleets faced each other in battle.
Once the hostilities between the two began to reach its climax, all ships suddenly and mysteriously became paralyzed and all weapons became superheated and temporarily rendered useless. Unknown to both sides at the time, the Organians were, in fact, an advanced non-corporeal species, despite their primitive way of life. As quickly as it started, the Organians effectively ended the occupation, the war, and Kor's governorship. The Organians continued to promote peace between the two powers by imposing the Organian Peace Treaty.
Within two years, Kor became the commanding officer of the IKS Klothos. In 2XXX (1XX NE), Kor again faced his enemy, Kirk in battle, when the Klothos engaged the USS Enterprise in the Delta Triangle region. During the battle, the two starships became entangled in a "time trap," a phenomenon unique to that region, pulling the ships into an alternate universe known as Elysia.
Kor attempted to escape, but the Klothos was unable to break free from the region, partly due to its unusual properties, including draining dilithium crystals of their energy. Through cooperation, the crews of the Enterprise and Klothos were able to formulate a strategy by combining their warp power in an effort to overcome both ships' individual power deficiencies.
Prior to their attempt, however, Kor had one of his officers, Kali, plant a bomb-like device in the computer room of the Enterprise, set to explode once the starship cleared the phenomenon and reached warp eight. Both ships were able to escape the region, and the destruction of the Enterprise was averted moments before the ship reached warp eight. Nevertheless, Kor claimed responsibility for formulating their combined escape and returned to Klingon space none the worse for wear.
Kor's ship, the Klothos, was one of the first Klingon vessels equipped with a cloaking device. Kor was said to have spent three days in the engine room taking it apart and studying it before their first mission. This proved critical when he later commanded one of the two Klingon divisions aboard the Klothos, along with Kang, in an attack against the Federation outpost at Caleb IV. During the attack, Kor successfully tricked his opponent by launching a small initial attack, and then striking with the bulk of his forces when the Federation began repair efforts.

Quotes[]
- "I remember the day your father and I fought one another for the first time. He was unlike any other Starfleet, he had a true warrior spirit! Even as an enemy, he earned our respect. And after hearing tales of his reputation among the Seperatists and the hnorless Nazis, I almost suspect he was a Klingon in the past life."
- — Kor to Leia Skywalker.
