A Cardassian Soldier on Empok Nor in 2373

These two Cardassian Soldiers were members of the First Order, Third Battalion. In the 2370s they were assigned to Empok Nor to served as test subjects for psychotropic drugs to enhance the Cardassians' natural xenophobia, and presumably further motivate Cardassian troops. The test was apparently a failure as the soldiers soon became far too aggressive to control. When the Cardassians abandoned Empok Nor in early 2373, the two soldiers, along with another test subject, were left behind in stasis tubes, though the third soldier died at some point in the following months when his stasis tube failed.

When a Starfleet salvage team from Deep Space 9 arrived at Empok Nor late that same year, a security program revived the soldiers, who proceeded to kill officers Pechetti, Stolzoff, and Boq'ta before they were killed by Elim Garak. (DS9: "Empok Nor")

The two Cardassian soldiers were played by regular stunt actors Christopher Doyle and Tom Morga, both received no on-screen credit for their appearance.
The non-canon Star Trek Customizable Card Game gives the character played by Tom Morga the name Jerax.
