FERENGIS
Ferengis are a race of negotiators. Negotiate for what, you ask? Well, gold-pressed latinum, of course. Physically speakng, Ferengis are by nature short with big heads. Perhaps it is the head that gives them their enormous ego. Their approach to life is very business-like. They always seek a way to make a profit, thus they have developed the Rules of Aquisition. These serve as the guidelines in dealing not only other Ferengi, but any other races as well. Although the Ferengi possess a good amount of technology and arms, they can be easily bluffed or bought off.
NOTABLE FERENGI
Quark is one of the most known Ferengi due to his bar located on the Promanade in Deep Space 9. He is constantly attempting to make a profit from gambling tables to rented holosuites, and all the while trying to stay out of Security Chief Odo's jail.
Rom is Quark's brother who runs the bar with him as well as performing needed engineering assistance on Deep Space 9.
Nog, who is Rom's son, was the first Ferengi to attend Starfleet Academy. He has served on the front lines of the ongoing war with he Dominion. Nog hopes one day to become the first Ferengi captain of a Federation starship.
