The Rite of Forced Conscription was a Klingon ritual that allowed an individual to forcibly conscript another into their forces by defeating them in single combat. The invocation of the rite required the presence of witnesses.
In the 21st century, Captain Jokor lost his command when he was involuntarily added to another crew via the Rite, but was able to regain it through the Ritual of J'ethurgh.
In 2382, Ma'ah invoked the Rite of Forced Conscription on Bargh and defeated him, thus conscripting him into his quv beq. This allowed him to name Bargh as the sacrifice required for the final part of the Ritual of J'ethurgh. (LD: "A Farewell To Farms")
