The Red Path, also known as the Cult of Kahless, are the main antagonistic faction of the first arc of the untitled Star Trek comic series. The organisation is a militant pan-species fascist revanchist group and cult that followed the renegade Emperor Kahless ll and his extremist perspective on the Klingon identity. Harbouring a religious worship for their leader, the followers of Kahless venerated him as their messiah with a zealous reverence that adhered to violent atheist sentiments inspired from the legendary exploits of the original founder of the Klingon Empire — the genetic template that their leader had been cloned from — who was credited for slaughtering their gods. Driven with an agenda that had been inspired from such accomplishments, the Path rejected the concepts of godhood and launched a crusade to eliminate all that laid claim to it. Although based on the capital planet Qo'noS, the reach of the Red Path extended past the boundaries of their state and by the time the movement emerged to assist Kahless, it had amassed a significant fleet of warships and hundreds — if not thousands — of members. While their leader and the largest body of his followers were Klingons, the faction recruited individuals from a number of different species, including humans, Cardassians, Orions and Romulans that had deserted their own governments and been converted to the religion. Regardless of their background, however, individuals that had pledged fealty to Kahless by choosing to "walk the Red Path" were equipped with various weapons and clothes that are connected to Klingon traditions, including bat'leth, and most were capable of speaking Klingonese. The name of the organisation itself was derived from a passage in the Sutras of Kahless Reborn, 'Iw Devwol' HartaHghach, which translated to "Faith of the Blood Guide". However, a number of the terrorists were victims to a sacrament that was made from a mixture of potent epinephrine and yridium bicantizine, which triggered heightened negative emotions and a violent physiological response that had qualities resembling drug addiction.
