( DS9: " Past Prologue")Īn attempt on Worf's life in 2370 was suspected to have been the work of the Duras sisters, but this proved not to be the case. As they had committed no crime against the Bajorans they were allowed to go about their business and were not apprehended. Lursa and B'Etor surfaced once again on Deep Space 9 in 2369, selling bilitrium to Bajoran Kohn-Ma terrorist Tahna Los in order to fund their continuing efforts to gain control of the Empire. The Duras sisters continued to fight a private war against the Empire. Support immediately fell away and Gowron's forces stood victorious. Picard was able to prove this and block the Romulan supply convoys aiding the Duras' forces. ( TNG: " Redemption")Īlthough Toral was technically its leader, effectively the House was being controlled by Lursa and B'Etor, who were in turn working in collusion with the Romulans. He gave Toral's life to Worf, but Worf chose to spare the boy, who had merely been used as his aunts' pawn. With this, Chancellor Gowron restored Worf's good name and his family honor. The Arbiter of Succession Jean-Luc Picard chose to reject Toral's claim, causing those council members loyal to the House of Duras to withdraw from the council, plunging the Empire into civil war. Though only a boy, Toral was made head of House Duras and inherited his father's claim to leadership of the council. Several months later, Duras' sisters Lursa and B'Etor discovered that Duras had an illegitimate son, Toral.

Duras proved to be no match for Worf, and was killed, leaving House of Duras without a leader as Duras had no legitimate heir, and Gowron free to take his place as Chancellor. When Worf discovered that his mate K'Ehleyr had been murdered by Duras, he immediately transported to Duras' ship and challenged him. With the death of K'mpec in 2367, Ja'rod's son, Duras, sought the leadership of the council, standing against Gowron. Worf challenged this, but when he learned the truth he agreed to accept discommendation, for the good of the Empire.
When evidence of this surfaced in 2366, then-Chancellor K'mpec sought to protect the Empire against a possible civil war by blaming Mogh, the father of Worf. In 2346, Ja'rod had betrayed his people to the Romulans, providing them with the codes to lower the defenses protecting the Klingon colony on Khitomer. In the 24th century, the House of Duras was engaged in a blood feud with Huraga's house. In 2153, he died in battle with Enterprise trying to capture Jonathan Archer at the edge of the Delphic Expanse. The home of the House was located in the First City, adjacent to the Great Hall.Ī forefather in this house was Duras, son of Toral. Outside of the view of the majority of the Klingon population, they often have a reputation for deceit and dishonorable practices. The House of Duras was one of the Great Houses in the Klingon Empire which by 2366 had become highly influential in Klingon politics, so much so that its leader Duras (son of Ja'rod) was considered in 2367 for the position of Chancellor of the Klingon High Council. – Chancellor Gowron, 2367 (" Redemption")
