I am Korr, son of T'Wor

This is the story of how I came to join the Lost Lot...

Years ago as I lay upon some drift-wood, floating in the middle of ocean, I was picked up by two pirates as they sailed their lonely sloop through the waters. At first I could not speak their language, or understand their words. But they were kind to me. Strange for pirates, I know. But they were honorable men, and I worked hard to repay them for rescuing me.
I eventually came to learn that the two men were called Tealbeard and Joshdan, and that Tealbeard was the Captain of their crew. Their crew grew, and still no one new what to call me. Some of the newer mates nick-named me “Tweedledumm” due to the multi-colored rags I wore. I never knew the significance of this name. I also eventually picked up a command of their language, this eeenglish. Once I had learned their language, I discovered I was on Terra, or Earth as the Terrans like to call their home planet. What a primitive place it was. But then again, I had come fifteen-hundred years into the past. Back before even the days of when Kahless united the empire.
I owe Captain Tealbeard and Joshdan my life for saving me, so I trusted them with the story of my past as soon as I was able. But now I share it with the crew that serves under us.
Know now that I am Korr, son of T’Wor, and I am a Klingon warrior. I was once Commander Korr, Captain of the d’whar class attack cruiser “Jeh’vort”. My vessel was on a mission to Terra when a warp-drive malfunction caused us to somehow jump backwards through time. We crash-landed into the ocean, most of my crew died in the crash. Those of us still living struggled to get free of the wreckage before she sank to the bottom of the ocean. A few of us made it out before the fire that was raging inside the ship reached the armory. The blast of flame killed instantly my first officer T’kesh as he was trying to lift petty-officer Tokoth out of the hatch. Gunner Martev was thrown back against the starboard disruptor cannon and his neck snapped. Shrapnel from the exploding vessel pierced and killed Engineer second-class Karn and Navigator third-class Gh’hek. After their deaths, I was the only survivor. I called out a warning to those in Stovokor that many fine warriors would be coming to them. Then I passed out. I did not awake again until I was on the deck of the Reserved Alewife.
I have come to accept my new home. There is no way that I could return to my time and my people. But I owe my life to Captain Tealbeard and Joshdan. I have dedicated that life to serving the Lost Lot and the Captain’s flag, the Light Brigade. I have learned many terran customs, including one called “politeness”—a very foreign concept to me. I have found that as a pirate there are many opportunities for battle and glory, and to bring honor to myself and my crew. I also learned to brew blood-wine. It is the best drink for toasting a great victory. But terran rum will do in a pinch.
