Changes: Dabo girl

Revision as of 14:55, 1 September 2014

Dabo girls were beautiful females of various species often employed by Ferengi as part of their roulette-style game of chance called Dabo during the 24th century.

During the 2360s and 2370s, Quark hired a variety of Dabo girls to wait and operate the dabo table at his bar on Deep Space 9. One of their main duties was to distract gamblers at the Dabo wheel into losing. (DS9: "The Abandoned")

Quark often included "fringe benefits" in his Dabo girls' contracts (page 21, subsection D, paragraph 12), up to and beyond oo-mox. However, Commander Benjamin Sisko assured him in 2369, after Starfleet took command of the space station, that those provisions were not legally enforceable. (DS9: "Captive Pursuit")

After Quark noticed the arriving of a group of spiritual Bajorans on the station he told Constable Odo he had to double the Dabo girls because these spiritual people loved them so much. (DS9: "In the Hands of the Prophets")

Dabo girls were also known to work on Ferengi casino ships. (VOY: "Inside Man")

Background

In the non-canon DS9 relaunch novels, Quark hired a dabo boy at the suggestion of Treir, an Orion dabo girl.

Several jewelry pieces worn by Dabo girls were sold off on the It's A Wrap! sale and auction on eBay. [1]
