So it is simply which version of 'canon' you want to use. FASA Romulans was pretty awesome too, come to think of it. Much better than the crap you saw later in TNG...

Re: [Star Trek] Klingon Template
I just now found this thread.
You guys have perked my attention. Unfortunately, I am at work for the next three hours , then I have an all day get together with my old GURPS group that might go to midnight. As to "FASA" version of Klingons? - pretty much non-canon and out of date now. For new players its much better to go with the version of things that they are most familiar with - that means the televised/on available DVDs/ recent movie versions of the STAR TREK universe. - Ed C.

Re: [Star Trek] Klingon Template
...and again I re-discover this thread.
Whats it been six to seven months? In my current campaign the crew of the Cochise have been 'loaned' 18 Klingon Warriors to help out the ranks of their MACOs and Security forces. Those templates will help quite a bit. By-the-way, anyone have a suggestion for a negative reaction roll number for Klingons when they meet or bump into an average Federation citizen? Keep in mind, my campaign is set right before the classic show era and about 11 months after the events of the 2009 movie. - Ed C.

Re: [Star Trek] Klingon Template
How about a -3 and call it [-10 pts] Intolerance (nonWarriors)? You think this is ubiquitous enough to add it to the Klingon Warrior Lens?

Your template is the closest I've seen to a mostly canon Klingon template - and thats the kind of game that I'm running - 'mostly canon' - but up to a point. That point is the year 2258 -the year the recent was set. After that point in the timeline everything is now a CLEAN SLATE in the timeline. In many ways its very liberating to run Star Trek this way. - Ed C.

Re: [Star Trek] Klingon Template
So, Captain, does this mean you're going to start asking your "voice acting" cast to deliver lines in Klingonese?
(The Captain and I used to play in the same face-to-face group before he moved a few thousand miles away... but he occasionally gets the old gang to cobble together log entries for his new players, by recording and emailing sound files.) -- Proteus, of former Virgilius fame |

And, I must say, they are awesome. Current adventure designers should really consider adding audio and/or multimedia "hand-outs" as a matter of course.

Re: [Star Trek] Klingon Template
Worf didn't look down on every single non warrior of any race. He did however consider the warrior calling the very flower of Klingon existence.

Re: [Star Trek] Klingon Template
Worf if a very special case, and truthfully I wouldn't consider him a Klingon Warrior. He is a Starfleet officer who considers himself a Klingon Warrior (and has a very idealised view of what that is). Many Klingons viewed him as an outsider. Much of his Code of Honour and respect of a broader class of people comes from his human upbringing and Starfleet training, rather than his Klingon heritage.
