'''Lore''' is a recurring character in ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'', played by [[Brent Spiner]]. He is a prototype [[android]] brother of Starfleet's Lieutenant Commander [[Data]] (who serves as second officer cum science officer aboard the ''USS Enterprise'').
==In Canon==
Lore was created by [[Mad Scientist]], Dr. [[Noonien Soong]]. Lore's emotional programming was very advanced. However, he began displaying signs of emotional instability and malevolence, leading Lore to see himself as superior to the human colonists. He frightened the other colonists, who demanded that Soong deactivate him. Lore later claimed that they saw him as "too perfect", and were envious. Found in Soong's lab in pieces, Data and [[Geordi LaForge]] reconstruct Lore and reawaken him. After an attempt to dupe Data's colleagues, Lore was transported into space and drifted alone for months, until recovered the Pakleds. Lore stole an emotion chip intended for Data and eventually subverted a small collective of [[Borg]]. He was again defeated by the Enterprise crew and deactivated by Data.
In the movie ''[[Star Trek: Nemesis]]'', another Soong-type android prototype is discovered, known as [[B-4]].
==In Fanfiction==
===Fanzines===
The members of [[Astrex]], a ''Star Trek'' club in Australia, were amused when a major character in the then-new ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'' was coincidentally named for their long-running newsletter ''[[Data (Star Trek zine)|Data]]''. A few years later, members voted to title their new club fiction [[sister zine|fanzine]]... ''[[Lore (Star Trek zine)|Lore]]''.
Fanzines focusing on the character include:
* ''[[Kiron_III#Issue_2|Sons of Kiron III]]'' (1991) - contains the story ''A Lore Unto Himself''.
* ''[[Kiron_III#Issue_3|Klingons over Kiron III]]'' (1991) - The poem by [[Ian McLean]], ''[http://therinofandor.blogspot.com/2007/03/lore-and-order-by-ian-mclean.html Lore and Order]'', has since been reprinted online on the author's blog.

Other similar newsletters include ''[[Electronic Male]]'', with 10 issues.
