Boq

Boq was a Klingon charged with setting up and overseeing a mining operation on the planet Ivex II.

Knowing the Federation had already sunk considerable time and resources into their own mining operation on the neighboring planet of Ivex III, Boq was prepared for the possibility of a tense diplomatic stand off with Federation and Starfleet forces. He was given firm orders by the Klingon High Council to stand firm in any diplomatic confrontation, but to avoid an escalation into armed conflict if at all possible.
