Authored by David Shotton

Character Biography

K’vorth, Son of House Duroc
Parents: Unknown
Siblings: One of Triplets - Q’ragh (Brother, First Born); Urg’tohn (Brother, Third Born)

Education:
No formal schooling on record, being carried out by foster homes and personal tuition. K’vorth is known to be a somewhat accomplished pilot and warrior in his own right, and has spent time in his early years with an order of Klingon Monks who revere the worship of Kahless the Unforgettable. In this fashion he learned the intricacies of the Klingon belief system and was noted as a dedicated follower. However, his penchant to cause general chaos at every other time and opportunity while away from his Brothers led to him being removed from the Order and returned to the foster facility to rejoin his siblings, each of them also having caused general chaos where they were placed.

Physical Description:
K’vorth is slightly above average in height and weight for his species. He is extremely muscular, and carries the scars of many violent encounters on his body. Unlike his Brother Urg’tohn, K’vorth is shaven bald and wears a metal eye patch stapled over his left eye. Whether he has actually lost the eye or not is known to only his brothers, and it is not spoken of unless they are prepared to enter physical combat. On his bald head he sports a tattoo on the right side of his ridge line, that of the sign of his God showing his loyalty and obedience. He wears a beard braided into many sections, each with beads that he explains are enemies slain in the service of Kvaar’ton.

Medical History:
Multiple fractures, lacerations, contusions, residual scarring from burns in some places – all indicative of a life of battle and conflict.

Psychological Profile:
(Excerpt from requested mental health record, Klingon Medical Archives):
K’vorth was once considered emotionally unstable by Human, and even Klingon standards. He is hyper-protective of his siblings and of the House of Duroc. K’vorth is deemed to be a potentially dangerous individual although his penchant for honor, loyalty and worship in the traditional Klingon fashion was recognized early by his tutors. He is a Monk considered the foremost Religious leader of the Worship of the reinstated Klingon God Kvaar’ton.

Biography:
Born to unknown parents, the three ‘Sons of the House of Duroc’ (as they call themselves) were raised in an orphanage on Qo’noS. It became quickly apparent that the three were problematic, lashing out and aggressively confronting all who tried to work with them. Once they had grown to a size they could no longer be handled safely, they were bounced between different foster families and facilities. They were only split up once, and the damage each caused on their own was so great it was deemed unsafe to have them apart. It was determined by authorities that they suffered undiagnosed mental health issues, a diagnosis that each brother vehemently denied, and the separation of the brothers exacerbated these issues exponentially. It was also determined that they would be placed in a secure school where they were ‘educated’.
It was here that auditory hallucinations began. All three believed a ‘deity’ named Kvaar’ton was speaking to them, telling them they were ‘Sons of the House of Duroc’ and that they needed to go forth on a holy quest to restore the honor of their fallen House and that of the God Kvaar’ton. Without hesitation, the three broke out of the facility and began their ‘quest’.

Their lives have been a continuous conglomeration of seemingly aimless wandering, fighting, preaching, and fighting; all in the pursuit of the ‘Lost D’k tahg of Lord Marshall Pr’Kenth’ a (according all known Klingon archaeology experts) wholly fictitious ‘relic’ that would supposedly restore their House and the Kvaar’ton to their rightful place in Klingon society. They made a living as mercenaries, enforcers, and even colonial guards at one point. But their dedication to their God and their quest always meant that any position or residence they found themselves in was to be temporary and short-lived.

They found this relic on the Federation colony of OEDV, and after presenting the proof found to the Klingon High Council had both their God and their House reinstated.

Favored Weapons:
K’vorth trained with all traditional Klingon weapons, finding himself highly capable in hand to hand combat and with the Bat’leth, of which he treasures a unique specimen that he looks after carefully. At his side however, he wears a standard Disruptor Pistol and a Mevak blade, using this as a weapon as much as ritualistically.

Personal Property: K’vorth owns land on Quo’n’os as part of his House Duroc holdings, and has a small personal ship named The Blackjack. He has refrained from taking Command of a Kvaar’ton Class Battlecruiser as would be his right as a ranking member of his House.
