Der Orden des Kahless (The Order of Kahless), often abbreviated as ODK, is a German-speaking Star Trek roleplaying community and clan. Named after the legendary messianic figure of Klingon history, the community focuses on in-game roleplaying using the RPG-X modification for Star Trek: Voyager - Elite Force. It is one of the few remaining active German RPG-X communities dedicated to keeping the classic roleplaying mod alive today.
Activities
The community operates primarily as a virtual Starfleet organization, transforming the classic 2000s arena shooter into a platform for collaborative storytelling.
- RPG-X (Elite Force): Players gather on custom Star Trek map servers to act out episodic stories and missions in real-time. By utilizing the RPG-X mod, combat mechanics are disabled or heavily modified to allow players to holster weapons, sit at consoles and use functional tricorders to advance the plot.
- Active Plots: The community organizes specific ongoing storylines, known internally as "Plots." They historically manage multiple active ship units at once, such as the crew of the USS Phoenix. Following a live session, players meticulously log their in-character mission reports (Logbücher) and combat records on the forums.
- The Workshop (Werkstatt): Recognizing that custom maps are the lifeblood of RPG-X, the clan maintains a dedicated section for community mappers and modders to discuss, troubleshoot, and create new virtual environments for their roleplay sessions.
Structure
- Communication: ODK manages its operations via its central forum and coordinates live, out-of-character (OOC) discussions and session planning via a dedicated TeamSpeak server (ts.der-orden-des-kahless.de) and an official Discord server.
- In-Game Ranks: The structure follows traditional Starfleet hierarchies, with players taking on specific departmental roles (e.g., Captain, Tactical Officer, Science Officer) aboard their assigned starships, answering to the game masters who drive the overarching narrative.
Legacy
While many of the massive early-2000s Elite Force clans and modding hubs have vanished many years ago, Der Orden des Kahless remained active. Despite a relatively small, tight-knit member count, they continue to host regular missions, post detailed in-character logbooks (with logs continuing well into late 2024) and still maintain their live game servers and TeamSpeak infrastructure for the modern era.
