STARSHIP
IKS Wo'bortas
Class:	B'rel
Affiliation:	Klingon Defense Force
Status:	Unknown

The IKS Wo'bortas was a B'rel-class Klingon starship in service in the 24th century.

In 2328, shortly after being put under the command of Captain Qaolin, the Wo'bortas was placed at the disposal of Imperial Intelligence and detailed to shadow a Cardassian cruiser on survey duty, the Sontok. After the Sontok discovered the wreckage of one of the legendary Ch'gran ships on Raknal V, the Wo'bortas led a Klingon task force in the initial skirmishes with the Cardassian Third Order, and, in fact, was the sole surviving Klingon ship of those battles.

The fate of the Wo'bortas after Qaolin was made governor of the Klingon colony on Raknal V is unknown. (TLE novel: The Art of the Impossible).

No specific translation of the ship's name is given, but "wo'" is Klingonese for "Empire", and "bortaS" means "vengeance" or "revenge". A simple translation would be something like "Empire's Revenge" or "Vengeance of the Empire", and with more interpretive license other variants on the theme (e.g., "Realm's Wrath") are possible.
