In Star Trek, Kortar is a figure in Klingon mythology. He and his wife, the first Klingons, were supposedly made by the gods, but then turned against them and killed them; for this crime Kortar was condemned to be the carrier on the Barge of the Dead to the infernal afterlife of Gre'Thor. (His wife's fate is unknown.)
Episode 603, Barge of the Dead of Star Trek: Voyager has B'Elanna Torres fall into a state of near-death and finding herself on the passage to Gre'Thor, or as B'Elanna puts it, Klingon Hell. She meets Kortar, and it is from her that we know his story.
Kortar was portrayed by Eric Pierpoint.
