A Klingon commander on Gowron's side in the civil war who blames the chancellor for their defeats, challenges him for the leadership and is killed in the duel that follows.
Kulge is a Klingon officer in Gowron's forces during the Klingon Civil War, seen in the episode Redemption II and played by Jordan Lund.
As the Duras fleets, secretly supplied by the Romulans, win battle after battle, Kulge loses faith in his leader. In the council chamber he openly accuses Gowron of leading them to ruin and demands the right to challenge him. Gowron accepts at once, and the two fight with blades while their enemies advance. Gowron kills him.
Worf watches the duel with dismay, protesting that the chancellor's captains are wasting their strength on each other while the war is being lost. Kurn tells him that this is simply the Klingon way. Kulge's challenge shows how fragile Gowron's hold on power is before the Federation blockade exposes the Romulan supply line.
