The Khak'ma was an intelligence agency created by the Klingon race following the conquest of their homeworld of Qo'noS by the Terran Empire. Prior to that point, the Klingon people despised the use of assassination, sabotage and similar such operations. However, their war with the Terran people forced them to adopt new techniques which saw they hire instructors from the Orion Cabal in order to train among the best covert operatives in the quadrant with it surpassing the Tal Shiar. Among its heads was a ferocious warrior known as the Albino who headed its operations.
