Michael Dorn portrays Lieutenant Commander Worf, the first Klingon warrior to serve in the Federation Starfleet. After serving seven years on the U.S.S. Enterprise on Star Trek: The Next Generation, Worf was brought to Deep Space Nine by Captain Benjamin Sisko to act as a diplomatic liaison with the Klingons.

No matter where his career might take him in the future, Dorn will always boast one of the most unique accomplishments in Star Trek history. As Worf, he has appeared on-screen in more Star Trek episodes and movies as the same character than anyone, having been a regular in two Trek casts. The character's impact on both TNG and DS9 is undeniable — over the years, he became a vital, integral part of each series.

Indeed, Worf's own personal saga was often interwoven with the epic drama of the Klingon Empire, making for a multi-layered storyline that was both character-driven and focused on a larger canvas. On TNG, Worf often took center stage, perhaps most memorably in the grand-scale two-parter "Redemption." Here, Worf's ideals as a Klingon warrior were somewhat at odds with his duty as a Starfleet officer — we were able to view the sweeping story of the Klingon civil war through his eyes, making it more personal. On DS9, Worf found himself romantically involved with Jadzia Dax (Terry Farrell), resulting in one of the most popular pairings in Trek history. The duo shared a very memorable wedding episode (it was a traditional Klingon wedding, naturally) and their combined chemistry and charisma made Jadzia's death in Season 6 all the more heart-wrenching. On both series, Dorn's considerable magnetism and talent gave Worf's story even more depth and meaning. He also contributed behind the scenes, directing several episodes of DS9.
