In Star Trek Online the Klingon Empire faction are currently mostly a PvP only faction and have very little in the way of PvE content. Cryptic has stated numerous times that if the demand is high enough they may well introduce full PvE content for the Klingon Empire after the game has entered a retail state.
Klingons are not playable when players first start the game. They are unlocked once the player has a Federation character that has reached Lieutenant grade 5 rank. When unlocked the player can create a Klingon Empire faction character from the list of characters window when logging into the game.
