Burly warrior []

Ty'Gokor burly warrior 1

A burly Klingon

This burly warrior was selected to join the Order of the Bat'leth.

He was boasting, near a barrel of bloodwine in the Hall of Warriors, about a recent confrontation with a Federation starship. Captain Benjamin Sisko, disguised as Jodmos, knocked him down, apparently to get to the barrel. In reality, however, Sisko struck the Klingon because he was bragging about killing several Starfleet officers, after boarding the same ship, namely the ship's Tellarite helmsman and the ship's Benzenite captain, Laporin, who was one of Sisko's classmates at the Academy. (DS9: "Apocalypse Rising")

The "Burly Klingon", as he was credited, was played by Robert Budaska.

The Star Trek Customizable Card Game gives his name as Wo'Din.

Drummer []

Klingon drummer

Klingon drummer

This warrior struck a large drum to announce the entrance of Gowron into the Hall of Warriors. (DS9: "Apocalypse Rising")

This drummer was portrayed by an unknown performer.

The script gives a notable description his performance, describing:
"Just then, the sound of massive bass drumming fills the air. It's the Klingon equivalent of "Hail to the Chief" [...] as the drumming reaches a crescendo and... Gowron enters."

Drunken warrior []

Ty'Gokor drunken warrior 1

A drunken Klingon

This drunken warrior was selected to join the Order of the Bat'leth.

He bumped into Odo causing him to drop the polaron emitter he was carrying. (DS9: "Apocalypse Rising")

The "Drunken Klingon", as he was credited, was played by stunt actor Tony Epper.

Head and second guard []

This head guard, a Yan-Isleth, accompanied Martok as he visited the Federation prisoners in the holding cell. They hesitantly left Martok's side when he dismissed them, so to speak with the prisoners along.

Outside the holding area this guard was under strict instructions from Chancellor Gowron that the Federation prisoners were not to leave their cell. When Martok attempted to lead the prisoners out of the holding area for "further interrogation", the guard would not allow them to leave, and in response, Martok vaporized him with a disruptor.

The second guard was also dispatched in the assault, allowing the prisoners to leave the holding area. (DS9: "Apocalypse Rising")

The "Head Guard", as he was credited, was played by actor Robert Zachar. The second guard was played by the uncredited Ken Lesco.

Hulking warrior []

Ty'Gokor hulking warrior 1

A hulking Klingon who headbutted O'Brien

This hulking warrior was selected to join the Order of the Bat'leth.

While celebrating in the Hall of Warriors, he bumped in then headbutted O'Brien, who was in disguise as a Klingon, and had just arrived at Ty'Gokor. The Klingon laughed the incident off, then slapped O'Brien on the back before going on his.

Following the assault, Odo asked O'Brien if he was all right, to which O'Brien claimed to be fine, but joked that he wished that "they'd stop ringing that bill", while looking up towards the ceiling. (DS9: "Apocalypse Rising")

The "Hulking Warrior", as he was scripted, was played by an unknown actor.

Guards []

These guards were Yan-Isleth who served at Ty'Gokor when the Order of the Bat'leth ceremony was held there.

They stood guard in the corridor over a side entrance to the Hall of Warriors. They were both stabbed by Martok as he lead the Federation prisoners through to confront Gowron. (DS9: "Apocalypse Rising")

The Klingon guards were played by stunt performers, who received no on-screen credits for their appearances.

Scarred veteran []

Ty'Gokor scarred veteran 1

A scarred veteran

This scarred veteran was selected to join the Order of the Bat'leth.

He wrestled with Benjamin Sisko in the Hall of Warriors during the celebration/endurance test that took place the night before the ceremony. He had the better of Sisko for a time, before Sisko was able to turn the tables and knock the veteran to the floor with a hip throw. O'Brien congratulated Sisko on the victory, which Sisko credited to his time as captain of the Academy wrestling team.

Later he joined the towering warrior following the his discovery of the polaron emitter Odo had dropped, after being bumped into by a drunken warrior, joining in the suspicion that the device was possibly a weapon. (DS9: "Apocalypse Rising")

The "Scarred Klingon Veteran", as he was described in the script, was played by stunt icon Gene LeBell, who received no credit for his appearance. The same character was later described as being "a nearby friend" of the "Towering Klingon" in a later scene.

Ty'Gokor towering warrior 1

The towering Klingon

The towering warrior was one who was selected to join the Order of the Bat'leth.

During the preceding festivities, he picked up the polaron emitter that Odo, who was in disguise as a Klingon, had dropped. After he and [[#Warrior accusing Odo that it might be a weapon, Worf interjected and told him that it was a tinghamut, a Vulcan toy he had plundered, and the warrior handed over, wishing not to be seen holding a toy. (DS9: "Apocalypse Rising")
