The Albino - Notes

Universe :	Prime Timeline
Name :	The Albino [1]
Species :	Klingons

A Klingon and cousin of Kor. Whilst in the womb his mother attempted to generically engineer him to remove the augment virus which had afflicted the Klingon race in the 22nd century; the results of this caused him to suffer from albinism. Disgusted, his mother named him Qagh - the Klingon word for 'mistake'. He was more commonly known by the descriptive nickname "The Albino". [2]

Disgusted with his 'flaw', the Albino's mother sent him to be killed as an infant. Instead he was found by Orion pirates, who raised him in their culture. [2] As an adult, the Albino was an inafmous rogue who launched raids against Klingon colonies in the late 2200s. In 2290 three Klingon battlecruisers under the command of Kang, Koloth and Kor, were sent to apprehend the Albino. Although he escaped, the three officers were able to destroy most of his power base. In revenge for the the Albino infected each of the three men's firstborn sons with a virus that killed them. All three swore a Klingon Blood oath to gain revenge on him, as did their close friend and godfather of Kang's son, Curzon Dax. [1]

The Albino was almost tracked down by Kang on the planet Galdonterre, but was able to escape and go into fiding, building a fortified compound on Secarus IV in 2345. Kang learned of his location in 2370; the Albino subsequently contacted him and, tired of the long pursuit, offered Kand a glorious battle in which the four pursuers would face forty warriors in a battle to the death. Kang accepted, but the Albino reneged on the deal and planned to kill the aprty with a gravitic mine. [1]

The four avoided this trap and assaulted the compound, overcoming it successfully. Kang and Koloth were mortally wounded in the battle before Dax finally cornered the Albino. She hesitated to kill him, and Kang took the final death blow before dying. [1]
