Artim's father and leader
of the Ba'ku village. Sojef and the rest of the Ba'ku left
their homeworld and colonized a planet deep within the Briar
Patch, where they found that the metaphasic radiation in the

had appeared much older in terms of physical appearance
before arriving there. |

Species: Son'a
Ru'afo's best friend and
second in command of the Son'a. Gallatin was in charge of
the Son'a contingent during the Duck Blind mission, but was
captured by Lieutenant Commander Data when the Son'a
officers fired on him, causing his fail safe system to
activate. Gallatin was not in favour of killing the Ba'ku he
once lived with, nor the Starfleet officers aboard Ru'afo's
ship and assisted Captain Picard in thwarting Ru'afo's plan.
Gallatin returned home to the Ba'ku planet where he was
reunited with his mother. |
