Torg

Torg was a male Klingon officer in the 23rd century Klingon Empire. In 2285, he served on a Klingon Bird-of-Prey, later known as the HMS Bounty, under Commander Kruge.

Torg supported Kruge in 2285 in his attempt to obtain and exploit the Federation's Genesis technology. Kruge showed him the stolen summary of the device, and was impressed and sworn to secrecy. When they arrived at Genesis, the gunner destroyed the USS Grissom (NCC-638), but Torg identified the away team on the planet. Torg was in command while Kruge located the scientists, and ordered the ship to cloak when the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) arrived, also in search of those on the planet. Kruge returned to the ship to demand more information on Genesis from the Enterprise. When James T. Kirk was forced to surrender and allowed them to board, Torg led the boarding party, but was surprised to find that there was no one on the ship. Arriving on the bridge, Torg contacted Kruge to inform him that the Enterprise was deserted, and transmitted the information being spoken by the ship's computer. Listening to the computer, Kruge realized too late that it was, in fact, the countdown of the ship's auto-destruct, and was unable to warn Torg and the rest of the boarding party before they were all killed in the subsequent explosion.
