Revision as of 01:42, 4 April 2016
Cortan "Corey" Zweller was a Human Starfleet officer who served during the 24th century.
Like most Starfleet officers, Zweller attended Starfleet Academy, graduating in 2327. As an ensign, Zweller's first assignment was the USS Ajax, due to begin a deep space mission under the command of Captain Narth.
Prior to his arrival on the Ajax, Zweller spent several days at Starbase Earhart along with his friends, Jean-Luc Picard and Marta Batanides. During his stay there, he spent a lot of time socializing and playing dom-jot at the Bonestell Recreation Facility. On one such occasion, Zweller was challenged to a game by a group of Nausicaans, a game in which they won, much to his displeasure.
Believing the Nausicaans had cheated by using some sort of magnetic device, Zweller returned to the bar late one night and rigged the table himself, before challenging the Nausicaans to a rematch. He won the game, but it didn't take the Nausicaans long to determine that he, too, had cheated. After a brief exchange of words, a bar fight broke out in which Batanides was knocked unconscious and Picard stabbed through the heart, requiring him to undergo surgery.
Despite the whole incident, Picard chose to remain friends with Zweller for many years afterwards. (TNG: "Tapestry")
