/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

This is actually explicitly canon to the point that some of the (admittedly less than canon) books have other klingons calling him basically a tryhard.

Also, Klingon culture had become quite corrupted by that point whilst he was raised outside it with the idea of what a real Klingon is supposed to be. I forgot the exact episode, deep space nine for sure, but he got called the last true Klingon because of this.

This is from memory, I might be off somewhere.

It's an interesting take on being driven by ideals and insisting on them.

I wonder of the Klingon empire would never have stopped expanding if instead of fracturing into minor squabbles they all stayed true to the spirit as he did.
