Klingons are recurring antagonists in the 1960s television series Star Trek: The Original Series, and have appeared in all five spin-off series, along with eight of the feature films.
The Klingons were created by screenwriter Gene L. Coon, and first appeared in the 1967 episode "Errand of Mercy".
In the original television series, Klingons were typically portrayed with bronze skin and facial hair suggestive of Asian peoples, and possessed physical abilities similar to humans.
The overall look of the aliens, played by white actors, suggested orientalism, at a time when memories of Japanese actions during World War II were still fresh.
Costume designer Robert Fletcher created new uniforms for the Klingons, reminiscent of feudal Japanese armor.
