B'Etor
[guest appearance]

About the character:
B'Etor is more seductive and has more temper than her big sister Lursa. The Duras family has for several generations been powerful in the klingon home world, as they have succeeded in hiding their corrupt working methods. Worf makes his acquaintance with the Duras, when he wants to clear his fathers name for accusations of treachery, which in fact is commited by the father of the Duras sisters.

The sisters get away when their opponent Gowron wins the civil war, and they do not show until a year after on the space station Deep Space Nine ("Past Prologue" (3)), where they try to finance an army, that can put them back into power. Their last attempt in that connection is fatal and greed their misfortune (Star Trek: Generations).
