The Klingons ([[Klingon Language|Klingonese]]: ''tlhIngan'') are a [[humanoid]] warrior species that originates originate from the planet Qo'noS (pronounced ''Kronos''), an [[Planetary Classification Table#M|M-class ]] planet. One of the major powers of the galaxy, the Klingons are a proud, tradition-bound people who value honor and combat. The aggressive '''Klingon ''' culture has made them an interstellar military power to be respected and feared.<br> Klingons believe that they have the instinctive ability to look an opponent in the eye and see the intent to kill.

Klingons are known to be very strong and physically resilient. They can resist diseases and injuries much better than their [[human]] counterparts. This ability is due to a characteristic called "[[Klingon_AnatomyKlingon Anatomy#Redundancies|brak’lul]]." Brak’lul refers to the system of redundancies within the Klingon physiology. The most common perception of this is that Klingons have multiple organs that are redundant to each other, such as 2 hearts, 4 kidneys, 4 lungs, etc. Some geneticists believe the redundancy within the organs, notably the lungs, evolved to give Klingons greater stamina on the battlefield.
Klingon twins are very rare, but could be as random as any species (Unless specific intervention is the cause).
The Klingon female will most likely suffer from behavioral volatility, backaches and nausea during the pregnancy, but their stubbornness does not stop them from attending to their dutiesresponsibilities.
===Medical Equipment===
The following equipment is used by Klingon medics. Please be aware that this is not [[Star Fleet]] equipment.
* [[Biosupport/Monitor System]]
* [[Agonizer]]
Other Klingon rituals include the :* R'uustai, : a bonding ceremony which joins two people together in a relationship similar to brotherhood. * Brek'tal: allows the widow of an honorably slain Klingon, who was the head of his House, to marry his opponent.* Klingon tradition holds that "the son of a Klingon is a man the day he can first hold a blade."
If a Klingon warrior strikes another Klingon with the back of his hand, it is interpreted as a challenge to the death.
