Commander Kang was a legendary Klingon warrior and Dahar Master whose exploits assured him a place in the Hall of Heroes, as told in G'Trok's poem "The Fall of Kang", an epic so important it is required reading at Starfleet Academy. Commander Kang once faced James Kirk in 2269, but later joined him to defeat their true enemy, an energy life form living off their shared hatred when trapped aboard the Enterprise as undying fodder. Captain Kang later squared off against Captain Sulu's USS Excelsior during the tensions preceding the Khitomer Conference in 2293. Kang had already met Curzon Dax by then on the Klingon colony Korvat, when Dax intentionally angered Kang to foster a bond—a calculated risk as he walked out during a long diatribe by the shocked Klingon. The Trill envoy became such a trusted family friend that Kang's firstborn, a boy, was made his godson and named "Dax" in his honor. The boy, of course, was among those later killed in revenge by the marauding Albino and fostered a blood oath of revenge in turn among Kor, Koloth, and Dax that was finally carried out in 2370 and led to Dahar Master Kang's death as he struck the death blow on his enemy. He also had defeated T'nag and his army with only colleagues Kor and Koloth, according to Kor's tale in 2372, and later feasted on the leader's heart.

Captain Kirk responds to a distress call from planet Beta XII-A only to discover the Federation colony there destroyed and a band of Klingons as the only suspects. Klingon commander Kang, however, accuses Kirk of disabling his own ship and attempts to take control of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701. The culprit actually turns out to be an unknown energy being which thrives on the destruction and conflict. The energy being sends the Enterprise warping out of control as the confrontation with the Klingons intensifies. Kirk ultimately convinces Kang that they must set aside their differences in order to drive the alien being from the ship, and the two defeat their common enemy.

Famed character actor Michael Ansara played the Klingon warrior Kang, who would again appear on Star Trek Deep Space Nine nearly 30 years later in the episode "Blood Oath." Ansara appeared in that later episode along with William Campbell and John Colicos, who played the Klingons Koloth and Kor in the original Star Trek series. Although they were largely considered the Federation's greatest foes in the original Star Trek, the Klingons only appeared in five of the show's 79 episodes. The Klingons first appeared in "Errand of Mercy," followed by "Friday's Child," "The Trouble With Tribbles," "Day of the Dove" and "The Savage Curtain."
