Kruge
Kruge was a main character of
Star Trek III: The Search for Spock. The
romanized Klingon spelling of Kruge is
Qugh, which is also the word for
disaster.
Fittingly, he was commander of a Klingon
Bird of Prey on an ill-fated mission to collect all available information on the Federation's secret weapon known as
The Genesis Device. Serving this mission, he lost his mate, his pet, all but one of his crew,
Maltz, who was captured, and his ship, which had also been captured by
Kirk. He was defeated while bravely fist-fighting the infamous Kirk on the Genesis Planet.
Kruge was the first
Klingon speaking character after the creation of the
Klingon language and therefore represents one of the best resources for
pronunciation.
