AT: "xx" Forcas III was the inhabited third planet in the Forcas system. This was a Klingon system.

Worf entered a bat'leth competition here in 2370, and won Champion Standing.

In another quantum reality, Worf only achieved Ninth Place, due the judges ignoring his opponent's use of an illegal T'Gha maneuver. In another, he could not attend the competition and his younger brother Kurn went in his place. (TNG: "Parallels")

Forcas III was the origin of a drink that Guinan served in Ten Forward on the USS Enterprise-D. When Data tried this drink, during one of his first experiences with his emotion chip, he described the Forcas III drink as "revolting" (and immediately agrees to an offer for more) (Star Trek Generations)
