Kol in 2373

Kol was a male Ferengi shuttle pilot.

In 2366, he was among the representatives the Ferengi Alliance led by DaiMon Goss sent to bid to buy the Barzan wormhole. He and Arridor later took a shuttle into the wormhole, accompanying a shuttlepod from the USS Enterprise-D. Despite warnings that the wormhole had taken the two shuttles to the Delta Quadrant instead of the Gamma Quadrant as it was supposed to, the Ferengi refused to follow the Starfleet shuttle back through the wormhole. Moments after the shuttlepod entered the wormhome, its terminus changed, leaving Arridor and Kol stranded in the Delta Quadrant. (TNG: "The Price")

Arridor and Kol eventually made their way to the planet Takar II where they passed themselves off as the Great Sages of Takarian mythology. Under this guise, the Arridor and Kol obtained vast wealth by demanding tribute from the Takarians. In 2373, the planet was visited by the USS Voyager, and the two were exposed as frauds and driven off the planet. Arridor and Kol fled Voyager in their shuttle and attempted to return to Takar but were instead pulled into the Barzan wormhole, making it even more unstable. Their fate is unknown. (VOY: "False Profits")

Kol was played by Leslie Jordan in "False Profits". Another actor, who had no lines and was not credited, played the part in "The Price".
