Changes: Macet

Revision as of 16:26, 6 May 2006

Macet was a Cardassian Gul in the Central Command, and commander of the warship Trager. In response to the destruction of a Cardassian outpost by the Federation starship USS Phoenix in 2367, Macet ordered his ship to attack the USS Enterprise-D. However, his ship proved no match for the Galaxy-class Enterprise, and he agreed to a truce after his ship was disabled.

Macet cooperated with Enterprise Captain Jean-Luc Picard in tracking down the Phoenix, which was believed to have gone rogue under orders from Captain Benjamin Maxwell. Macet brought two officers with him, Glinns Daro and Telle. In the interests of peaceful cooperation following the recently signed treaty ending the Federation-Cardassian War, Macet punished Telle when the latter was caught attempting to access secured systems aboard the Enterprise.

Ultimately, the Phoenix was located and returned to Federation space. However, Picard relayed Maxwell's allegations of a renewed Cardassian buildup to Macet, warning him, "we'll be watching." (TNG: "The Wounded")

Macet was the first Cardassian seen in the Star Trek saga. He was played by Trek veteran Marc Alaimo, who would later play a much more famous Cardassian, Gul Dukat.

Apocrypha

Macet appeared in several of the Deep Space Nine relaunch novels, specifically "Unity" and "Worlds of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Volume 1." The similarities between Macet and Dukat were explained as being due to the fact that they were cousins. He joined Damar's Cardassian Rebellion and fought against the Dominion.

In the Deep Space Nine relaunch novel Unity, a neural parasite from TNG: "Conspiracy" tried to bond with him, but was unable to, because of a Cardassian immunity to such parasites.
