From ATS Wiki

Physical description

Prominent brow ridges sweep back gracefully from above this Ferengi's quick dark gold-pressed-latinum-ightlighted eyes to merge into the whirls of a pair of gigantic ears. The ears have the classic "Ears for Business" look. THey also have the shape (and nearly the size) of the Krios Nebula.

His conical teeth have fine bright points and glisten in sharp contract to a bulky nose that has more canyons and valleys than the famous Lost Gulch of Ramacal-6. To complete the picture, a bulbous forehead and skull rise up like the burial mounds of Sol-3's Plains Indians.

The little Ferengi walks with a slight limp (which he never talks about or even acknowledges). He's shorter than the average Ferengi - a mere 4' 11" - but makes up for his diminutive size with a quick wit and very alert mind (plus the 3 inch "elevator heels" in his stylish Krabask leather boots don't hurt...).

Oolon's Personal History

Oolon is a fourth generation restaurateur/hotelier from a proud and prosperous Ferengi family. His young years were spent as a laborer in the family restaurant/hotel. He was “given” (at a considerable cost) a restaurant of his own (Oolon's Omnivorium) on the planet Ferenganor by then Grand Nagus Ra’V. Oolon also was the proprietor of the now defunct Latinum Lounge on Fenalgar, and of the also now equally defunct QI'tu' on the Klingon homeworld.

Grand Nagus Ra’V presented Oolon with a Special Commendation Badge and appointed him to the post of Personal Advisor to the Grand Nagus. Unfortunately, this was a short lived appointment due to the tragic death of Grand Nagus Ra’V when he fell under a shuttle craft (alcohol and dabo girls can be a lethal mixture…) just a few weeks later. Oolon then acted as an unofficial advisor for the new Grand Nagus Fiddle.

While the food service industry was Oolon's family tradition – his great love in life was delivering cargo, seeing the galaxy, and making large profits - which, at least temporarily, turned his head from the family tradition of restaurant management.

Oolon was founder of the now defunct "Friends of the Ferengi" - a supposedly non-profit organization that purportedly aided homeless Ferengi widows and children. He was later exonerated in Sector Court of malfeasance and embezzlement charges related to some missing gold-pressed latinum and various accounting irregularities discovered during a surprise audit of the organization's books. Oolon's cousin Gaak was not as lucky - he's currently serving time on the prison planet Bakker-2 after a call from an anonymous informant led to the discovery of a quarter-bar of the missing gold-pressed latinum hidden under a cushion in Gaak's quarters. Rumors have it that Gaak blames Oolon (who often visited Gaak's residence - and usually sat on the same cushion) for his bad luck. The remainder of the missing 4,518,723 bars of gold-pressed latinum was never discovered.

Oolon is a past DaiMon of the Ferengal Alliance freighter, FMV Latinum. He has an ear for profits and consistently seems to be in the right place at the right time when windfall profits are available.

A mysterious 11 year absence culminated in the recent surprise re-appearance of Oolon. Rumors related to debtor’s prison, dabo girls, lost treasure, a death contract paid for by his cousin Gaak, Klingon enemies, and drunken debauchery have all circulated. Oolon has neither confirmed nor denied any of these rumors.
