Kivas Fajo
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference
Kivas Fajo was a Zibalian trader in the 24th century. He was educated on the planet Iraatan V.
By 2366, Fajo owned a trade ship called the Jovis and had become known throughout the Stacius Trade Guild for his large collection of rare and precious items. One of his competitors was Palor Toff. Aboard the Jovis, Fajo was assisted with his collection by Varria, who began working for Fajo in 2352.
In 2366, Fajo attempted to add Lieutenant Commander Data to his collection. After disabling Data, Kivas Fajo staged a shuttle explosion making it appear to Starfleet and the crew of the USS Enterprise-D that Data had been destroyed. When Data initially refused to cooperate, Fajo threatened to kill Varria unless Data did as he was told.
When Varria attempted to help Data escape, Fajo killed her with a Varon-T Disruptor. Witnessing the act, Data prepared to kill Fajo with the Disruptor. Fortunately for Fajo, Data was transported to the Enterprise just as he opened fire and Fajo's life was spared. Unfortunately for the trader, however, he was arrested and his collection was confiscated. (TNG: "The Most Toys")

[edit] Background
Fajo was played by Saul Rubinek. David Rappaport, a well known British actor and little person, had originally been cast for the part. Rappaport struggled with depression in his life, and committed suicide in 1990, shortly after having filmed some scenes as Fajo. Saul Rubinek was then asked to take over the role.
