Kortar [1] |
| Species : |
Klingons |
In Klingon mythology, Kortar was the first Klingon. His heart was created by the gods from fire and steel, and was the strongest heart in the heavens. When his heart weakened from loneliness the gods created a female for companionship. Her heart was even stronger, and Kortar was jealous of her power. Fortunately the female heart also posessed wisdom, and she suggested that the two could join together to become an unstoppable force. The gods attempted to flee this powerful combination, but the joined hearts destroyed them. [2] As punishment Kortar was condemned to Captain the Barge of the Dead, ferrying the souls of the dishonored to Gre'thor. B'Elanna Torres met Kortar in a near death experience in 2376. [1]
