It was his destiny to serve the Klingon warrior as such. No one in the family ever had the mental capacity serve as an officer; a long line of warriors. When not learning basic educational skills in school, Mok'Rogak learned the ways of the Warrior. He excelled at the Bat'leth, hand to hand combat and enjoyed target practice with the rifle. When Mok'Rogak was old enough, he enlisted in the Klingon Defense Force as a Marine. Upon completion of Basic Combat Training (BCT) and Advanced Combat Training as a Marine, he was assigned to the IKS [i]Pagh[/i] serving under Captain Kargon. He saw his first human when Commander William Riker entered an exchange program, serving as First Officer briefly in 2365. This experience with Commander Riker taught Mok'Rogak respect for the humans. He knew much of the rumors circulating about Federation crew and officers were false. They were competent warriors. Respect. In 2368 during the Klingon Civil War, the IKS [i]Pagh[/i] saw action at the Battle of Mempa. During a boarding operation, Mok'Rogak killed a Duras supporter, which he celebrated as his first kill in battle. It was a glorious moment for the 20-year old Klingon Bekk Warrior. This event strengthened his confidence, pride and arrogance. He had finally become a true Warrior. His mother and father were proud of him. Between 2369 and 2372, Mok'Rogak made an annual pilgrimage to the Bat'Leth competitions. This was a weapon he had been training with for all of his childhood and he carried this training into his adulthood. In two of those four years, he won first place, receiving the coveted [i]Standing Champion[/i] award. He displays these in his quarters on every assignment, inlcuding today in Starfleet. Most non-Klingons have no idea what they are. They appear as artful decorations. It was during this time, the [i]Pagh[/i] spent time at Deep Space: 9, Bekk Mok'Rogak learned earth language. [hider=Batleth competition] [list]2369 Competed in Bat'Leth competition and walked away with Standing Champion award. 2370 Competed in Bat'Leth competition and received severe laceration to chest and was knocked unconscious. 2371 Competed in Bat'Leth competition and walked away with Standing Champion award. 2372 Competed in Bat'Leth competition and received lacerations to both thighs, lost a finder from his left hand, a contusion to the skull and consciousness.[/list][/hider] While assigned to the IKS [i]Pagh[/i] Mok'Rogak saw action on Torros III. He participated in several boarding party operations with the Jem'Hadar. Mok'Rogak increased his body count severely during these campaigns. He even had the opportunity to participate in several small unit actions on the surface. During the Monac Shipyard raids, Mok'Rogak's Marine squad came under heavy fire. They were seriously outnumbered, overwhelmed by the Jem'Hadar. The enemy laid siege to the Klingon position for 37 hours. When the fighting had ended, only three of the original 35 Klingons remained alive. Mok'Rogak was one of them. No fewer than 350 Jem'Hadar bodies were scattered about the Klingon position. Mok'Rogak was revered as a Hero of the Empire and promoted to Sergeant. He was badly injured, spending a few months recovering in a hospital. When he recovered from his injuries, he was assigned to the IKS [i]Kov'el[/i], a Vor'cha class warship. This is where met Bekk Korvel, a young newly minted Marine. He had no impression of her yet, but would remember her years later. Mok'Rogak was with the [i]Kov'el[/i] only a brief time, when it was destroyed during combat actions near Cardassia prime. He was re-assigned to the Negh'Var-class Starship [i]Navik[/i] and saw limited action on the surface of Cardassia. The conflict was concluded prior to their engagement with the enemy. Mok'Rogak's unit was returned to the [i]Navik[/i] unbloodied and frustrated. Sergeant Mok'Rogak's temper got the better of him after not fighting on Cardassia and he was involuntarily discharged from the KDF with a loss of honor. Not long after this and remembering his encounters with Starfleet, he sought out enlistment there. Since he understood the language, he recalled his experience with Commander Riker aboard the [i]Pagh[/i]. He assumed all humans were equally warriors. He was in for a rude awakening. In 2376 while in Star Fleet training he resolved to restrain his normal Klingon impulses and observe the human way of doing things. He adapted, learning their customs quickly. He even learned patience and understanding, which were contrary to his more aggressive emotional impulses. In 2382, when Chief Mok'Rogak was assigned as Security Chief aboard the USS Artemis and met Ensign Korvel, it wouldn't be until after they'd had a conversation they recalled their earlier encounter aboard the IKS [i]Kov'el[/i]. Mok'Rogak would not recognize her until after she brought the subject up. It was seven years ago and far from the Klingon Chief's memory.
