A great Klingon warlord, Kruge will stop at nothing to meet his goals.  He could be compared to Earth’s Ghenghis Khan or Atilla the Hun.  While temporarily in command of the Potemkin, and en route to a priority mission, CAPT Carter fought against Kruge in a space battle. Kruge lost the battle and was forced to retreat.  Temporarily adrift in space, a humiliated Kruge was left with his warrior crew to repair their damaged vessel and return to the Klingon homeworld.  Because of his political connections and family heritage within the Klingon Empire, he was able to maintain command of his vessel.  Ever since that incident, Kruge has vowed to get revenge against the Federation, having never known of or met Captain Carter until their encounter on Diotoma III.
