Captain Nog joins the Star Trek Online cast

In the first episodes of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Commander Sisko tells Jake not to hang around with that Ferengi boy Nog. He’s worried the boy will be a bad influence on his son, you see. Here we are in that same timeline many years later, and Captain Nog is joining the fight against the Iconians in Star Trek Online after a long and distinguished career in Starfleet.

That isn’t relevant to his appearance in the game, of course. It’s just funny.

Actor Aron Eisenberg is the latest Star Trek actor to join the cast of the game, returning to the role of the first Ferengi to join Starfleet. No word yet on what Nog’s exact role will be within the game, but as captain of the USS Chimera it’s safe to say that his impact will be felt.
