  List of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine characters - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ishka is a rather unorthodox female of the ultra-capitalist Ferengi race, flouting Ferengi law by wearing clothes and earning profit.
In 2373, Ishka began a relationship with Grand Nagus Zek, leader of the Ferengi, and through him exerted considerable influence on Ferengi politics and economic policy.
With the help of her other son Rom, she is eventually rescued through a prisoner exchange during which Ishka is traded for the Vorta captive Keevan, who was captured earlier.
