Shakaar Edon, First Minister of Bajor

File:Bajoran farm, Shakaar.jpg

Shakaar's farm on Bajor.

Shakaar Edon was a member of the Bajoran Resistance and leader of the eponymous Shakaar cell during the Cardassian Occupation. Kira Nerys was in his resistance cell, and he sent her on her first raid when she was age thirteen. After twenty-five years of fighting the Cardassian occupiers, the Occupation ended, and he became a farmer. Later he would become First Minister of Bajor.

In 2371, Shakaar refused to return soil reclamators that he had waited for three years to Kai Winn who had become acting first minister of Bajor. He was promised the use of the machinery for one year, and had waited three years to receive the reclamators. Winn sent the militia to arrest him, but they joined Shakaar. He became Bajoran First Minister in late 2371 after Kai Winn Adami withdrew from the race, after he and Kira Nerys threatened to reveal that she was willing to plunge Bajor into civil war over the soil reclamators. (DS9: "Shakaar")

In 2372, Shakaar arrived at Deep Space 9 to negotiate Bajor's admittance into the Federation. Shakaar had pushed to cut in half the time Bajor had to wait to join the Federation. He was threatened by the Cardassian terrorist movement called the True Way. A True Way operative nearly killed him twice during the conference by sabotaging his turbolift car, and depressurizing his quarters. He was saved both times by the crew of Deep Space 9. It was at this time that he realized he has fallen in love with Kira and he began a romance with her. (DS9: "Crossfire")

He was at Major Kira Nerys' bedside when she gave birth to Miles O'Brien and Keiko O'Brien's baby Kirayoshi O'Brien in 2373. Kira and Shakaar ended their relationship later that year, after a visit to the Kenda shrine on Bajor revealed that they were not meant to walk the same path, although the pair remained friends. (DS9: "The Begotten", "Children of Time")

After Bajor signed a nonaggression pact with the Dominion later that year, Shakaar ordered all Bajorans to leave Deep Space 9. (DS9: "Call to Arms")

Shakaar Edon was played by Duncan Regehr. Shakaar was to have had more appearances in Deep Space Nine, but Duncan Regehr's schedule and the fact that he lived in Canada led to Shakaar being written out of many episodes.
