  • Enabran Tain was a male Cardassian of the Cardassian Union in the 24th century. He gained notoriety as the leader of the Obsidian Order, which he maintained tight control of. He was married and the father of Elim Garak – a fact he never admitted publicly, though. His son would later recall that Tain never grew tired of repeating to him "I should have killed your mother before you were born. You have always been a weakness I can't afford." (DS9: "In Purgatory's Shadow") Tain would also discipline his son, who had a strong case of claustrophobia, by locking him in a closet. In contrast to this, Tain spent a day in the country with his son when he was four, their "only day" as Garak would later recall. Garak impressed his father by mounting a riding hound despite falling off numerous times. As he limped home, his father held Garak's hand and would later recall that he was very proud of him that day. (DS9: "In Purgatory's Shadow", "Afterimage") Tain became head of the Obsidian Order in 2348, and held the position for twenty years. Tain trusted no one, with the exception of his housekeeper, Mila. He was known for ruthlessness, and many said that he lacked a heart. Tain was also Garak's immediate superior, whom he trained and molded into a mirror image of himself. Nevertheless, Tain was directly responsible for exiling Garak after being betrayed by him in some way. Tain retired from the Order in 2368 and moved to the Arawath Colony. He was the only head of the Order to live long enough to do so. During this time, in 2370, he was visited by Julian Bashir, who was seeking information on Garak's cranial implant so that it could be removed. Tain claimed to be only helping Bashir so that Garak could live a long, miserable life. (DS9: "The Wire") Ira Steven Behr said, "You meet his [Garak's] mentor and best friend, who says, 'I hope he dies, but tell him I miss him.' That's perfect." (Captains' Logs Supplemental - The Unauthorized Guide to the New Trek Voyages, p. 73) Behr explained that the reason the scene featuring Tain became a favorite of his (and the writing staff of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) was "because we wanted to find out more about that guy!" (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion, p. 141) The following year, Tain attempted to stage a comeback by destroying the Founders' homeworld with a combined fleet of Obsidian Order and Tal Shiar ships. His plan was compromised by a changeling infiltrator, and the resulting Battle of the Omarion Nebula was a complete failure. The entire combined fleet was destroyed by the Jem'Hadar. Tain was assumed to have perished when his warbird exploded, however he was actually captured by the Dominion and detained at Internment Camp 371. (DS9: "Improbable Cause", "The Die is Cast") In 2373, Tain managed to modify the camp barracks' redundant life support system to send a subspace signal to Garak, indicating he was alive. By the time Garak reached him though, he was dying of unspecified heart trouble. On his deathbed, Tain asked Garak to escape, so that he could seek vengeance on the Dominion for what it had done to him. Garak agreed, but only if Tain asked him as his father. Tain died in the presence of Garak and Bashir after acknowledging that Garak was his son, his last words were to Garak, "I was very proud of you – that day." (DS9: "In Purgatory's Shadow") Damar discovered that Tain was Garak's father in 2375, when Garak and he, with Commander Kira Nerys, sought refuge in Tain's old house. (DS9: "The Dogs of War")
