Manathas

Romulan agent. Considered himself lucky never to have joined the Tal Shiar. Present at the wedding of Starfleet officers Beverly Howard and Jack Crusher. Managed to acquire genetic material from Picard and three other Starfleet captains. This was part of Praetor Narviat's program of clandestine infiltration of the Federation -- the same program that led to the capture and examination of the Soong-type android known as B-4. A germaphobe, he was infected with a local disease on Krevratas while working for Praetor Tal'Aura. Accomplished at hand to hand combat (TNG novel:Death in Winter, and TNG short story: "Twilight's Wrath").
