Depiction

Kor acts as an antagonist to James T. Kirk on Organia in "Errand of Mercy", in which the Klingons and United Federation of Planets are on the verge of open warfare. The Organians reveal themselves as beings of pure energy and force the Federation and Klingons to sign a peace treaty.

Kirk and Kor, who commands the IKS "Klothos", work together to escape the Delta Triangle in "".

Kor, along with original series Klingons Kang and Koloth, appear in the "Star Trek" spin-off "Deep Space Nine". Each of the trio's firstborn sons had been killed by a genetic virus unleashed by an Albino Klingon on whom the Klingons and Curzon Dax, godfather to Kang's murdered child, swore a to exact revenge. Having tracked him down, the three Klingons and Jadzia Dax attack his compound. Only Kor and Dax survive.

Kor, Dax, and Worf find the legendary "Sword of Kahless" in the episode by the same name. Realizing that its reintroduction into Klingon society would cause division rather than unity, they beam the relic into space.

Final appareance

"Once More Unto the Breach" is Kor's final appearance. Here he meets Dax in yet another form, commenting upon how Ezri Dax is so similar yet so different from Curzon Dax. Otherwise uninvolved in the Dominion War, Worf secures Kor a berth as third officer aboard General Martok's vessel. Suffering from senility and flashing back to his youth mid-battle, however, Kor is mocked by Martok and the crew. When Worf volunteers to lead a suicide mission to save Martok's birds-of-prey, Kor incapacitates Worf and takes his place. The episode ends with Kor's ship leaving sensor range, and Martok toasting Kor as a great warrior.
