Revision as of 01:53, 18 June 2020

For the mirror universe counterpart, see Kesh (mirror).

Kesh was the Chancellor of the High Council of the Klingon Empire from at least early 2270, possibly up through 2279, and into the 2280s. He was succeeded by Chancellor Gorkon. (TOS novel: Agents of Influence; TOS novel: In the Name of Honor; TOS - Mere Anarchy eBook: The Blood-Dimmed Tide)

Prior to ascending to the position of Chancellor, Kesh served on the Klingon High Council as a Councillor under the reign of Chancellor Sturka, and was involved in the discrediting of fellow council-member Duras, with whom he was previously allied, at the hands of Gorkon, by way of leaked intelligence to the Federation News Service in 2268. (VAN novel: Storming Heaven)

Chancellor Kesh was established in the TOS novel: In the Name of Honor, which also established that he was removed in a coup d'etat in 2287. However, the TOS - Mere Anarchy eBook: The Blood-Dimmed Tide had Kesh still in power in 2291.
