{{DEFAULTSORT:Worf (Colonel)}}
'''Colonel Worf''' is an [[attorney at law|attorney]]/[[Judge Advocate General's Corps|Judge Advocate General]] to the [[Klingon|Klingon Empire]] in the fictional [[Star Trek]] universe. He was the father of [[Mogh]], and the grandfather of [[Worf]] and [[Kurn]]. Colonel Worf was portrayed by [[Michael Dorn]], the same actor who portrayed the character's grandson, Worf in the various Trek television series and movies.

He was seen in the film ''[[Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country]]'' as the defense attorney who was appointed to defend Captain [[James T. Kirk]] and Doctor [[Leonard McCoy]] against charges of [[assassin]]ating Chancellor [[Gorkon]]. Despite giving his best efforts, Colonel Worf was unsuccessful, and Kirk and McCoy were convicted of the charges. Worf was able to convince the judge that the evidence was not strong enough to support the [[death penalty]] however, and Kirk and McCoy were afforded the "lesser" penalty of a lifetime's exile to [[Rura Penthe (Star Trek)|Rura Penthe]].

Colonel Worf also participated in the conference at Khitomer. When examining the assassin who tried to kill the [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]] President, he realized "this is not Klingon blood." The Starfleet Admiral pulled off the mask, revealing the assassin to be Colonel West.

Colonel Worf made no further appearances in any further movies or television series episodes, although he did have a prominent role in the (non-canon) Trek novel "The Art of the Impossible" in which he had been promoted to the rank of General. According to the novel, General Worf was on a transport that collided with a [[Cardassian]] ship due to sabotage, killing everyone on board. The colonel's brother (voiced by [[Michael Dorn]]) appears in the computer game [[Klingon Academy]] where he mentions his sibling in a cutscene.
