So just to add on to the mystery
Spoiler!
Beyond the whole no parents thing with Tyler and the "You fight like a Klingon line leading to the suspicion that Voq is Tyler.
The actor listed as playing Voq is a guy named Javid Iqbal
There are no pictures of him without Klingon makup, he's only had one role and that's the first three episodes of Discovery. He has no social media presence at all, no twitter, instagram or facebook which is unusual for an actor. He never took part in any promotional work for Discovery, and when Shazad Latif who plays Taylor and has been credited for all episodes including the first three was asked about him, he said he's never met him.
So the theory is that CBS made up a name, which is fine, but still had to credit Latif so they made him a series regular and planted him in the credits for the first three episodes.
