I was looking for a YouTube clip for the ship used to deliver the Genesis plans to Commander Kruge (the rank of Commander was a leftover from the original version of the script where the main antagonists for the movie were Romulans, who were replaced by Klingons), and Valkris reminded me that Klingons do have options for female Klingons that STO has been lacking.
Such as her 'forehead detail', 'eyebrow(s)', 'hairstyle' (would the headdress/neck covering be considered part of her hairstyle in STO terms, or would it be part of a separate option?), and 'collar' (the large metal neckless/choker). Her outfit looks like a cross between military and civilian (Klingon Intelligence outfit?), kind of like a Samurai's robes made with material may be something like a chainmail mesh.

PS, please make the freighter, it's small enough to be a shuttle, available to players. Maybe the shuttle for a possible neutral/Trader faction?

Well, if they ever do open it up for Klingons, hopefully they'll also look into Klingon Consul Korrd's outfit (even without the cloak, it'd be worth adding it to STO).
And the Romulan representive, Caithlin Dar, definitely has an outfit looking into, if the Devs get the chance

Having just watched ST II - IV, I'm reminded of the fact that Valkriss was something like a consort? An important person (at least in the book, iirc) whoms brother had brough ill-repute upon her house and ultimately doomed it.
Even though elements of the Klingon Military are portrayed as barbaric overlords for most of Star Trek. The people themselves actually have a lot in common with the Keshians of Raymond Fiests' Riftwar Saga (if you're familiar with it?). Theres a cultured side and a militant side, with every shade inbetween, all part of an internal political treadmill.
All in all though. Similarities to Earth cultures would be something with strong Russian / North East Asian influences. Perhaps classic Mongolian? -- There's a lot of that, sorta, "asians of the steppes" armour types among various species in Star Trek. The Klingons have a tonne of source material and it would be good to see some of that flair made available. -- it needs to be said, though; that what already exists has been very useful. It's certainly a lot more work building up options for Klingons, than any bar the most recently available species. Which seems counter-intuitive to me. Klingons are perhaps the most prominent faction in Star Trek, besides Starfleet.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

I'd make Ruby Rose in about a flat minute
Well... I was able to do season 1 Ruby pretty well. And season 1 Yang. Weiss and Blake... not so much.
I think it would be an IDEAL way to use Latinum.
