Kang is a known traditionalist who laments the passing of the old ways. His ship was destroyed by the Beta XII-A entity which fed on hatred, but not before being beamed with his crew onto the U.S.S. Enterprise. The entity continued to feed there until a truce was formed between Kang and Captain James T. Kirk with the help of Spock. In 237o he rejoined forces with Kor, Koloth and Dax to seek revenge on The Albino who killed all their first-born. After striking the fatal blow Kang succumbed to his massive injuries, dying on the battle field.
