Rao Vantika

Rao Vantika's corpse

Rao Vantika was a Kobliad criminal scientist who evaded the authorities for over twenty years.

He was using life-prolonging substances when captured by Ty Kajada of Kobliad security in 2369. In an attempt to escape, he set fire to Kajada's ship. When Dr. Bashir boarded the ship in a rescue attempt, Vantika transferred his conciousness to Bashir. The transfer was discovered after a series of crimes on Deep Space 9, and Jadzia Dax was able to transfer his consciousness from Bashir to a containment cell, which Kajada destroyed. (DS9: "The Passenger")

Vantika was played by James Harper.
