Enabran Tain

Star Trek, Cardassian | Character

Something Missing?

Enabran Tain, played by Paul Dooley, was the former head of the Obsidian Order and the biological father of Elim Garak. However, he never admitted this fact publicly, believing that his son was a "weakness he couldn't afford."

Tain was the head of the Obsidian Order for twenty years, and the only head of the Obsidian Order to live long enough to retire. As the head of the Order, Tain trusted no one, with the exception of his housekeeper, Mila. He was known for his ruthlessness, and many said that he lacked a heart. Tain was also Garak's immediate superior, whom he trained and molded into a mirror image of himself. Nevertheless, Tain was directly responsible for exiling Garak after being betrayed by him in some way.
