Jeffery Combs-Weyoun

As one of the Dominion's Vorta, Weyoun is the very essence of his cloned species, the trusted administrators bred by the Founders to handle day-to-day affairs and oversee the Jem'Hadar military. His current clone, acting as field supervisor for all current Alpha Quadrant operations since 2373, is the fifth incarnation; the fourth died a year earlier on the mission to oust renegade Jem'Hadar on Vandros IV.

The Vorta each display different personalities despite their cloned nature, and Weyoun is no exception. He constantly jockeys for position among Dominion allies while serving the Founders, especially the so-called "female shape-shifter" often seen among Solids. Dukat's ego and posturing were tolerated during the former Cardassian leader's regime, but Weyoun has shown far less patience with his first true puppet leader, Dukat's former aide-turned-successor, Damar.
