Nog, played by Aron Eisenberg, is a recurring character on the science fiction television series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. He becomes the first Ferengi to join Starfleet. He is Rom's son and Quark's nephew.

The five-foot Eisenberg was cast as Nog because the producers needed an adult actor (for the long makeup process) who would not look too tall next to the young Cirroc Lofton (who was cast before his unexpected growth spurt mid-series put him above the rest of the cast).

Nog was born to Rom and Prinadora on Ferenginar in 2353. Later, he moved with his father to Deep Space Nine and worked at his uncle Quark's bar. During this time, Nog was very mischievous, and a slight delinquent. With new best friend Jake Sisko, he is, though reluctantly, one of the first students in Keiko O'Brien's school. When Rom, under pressure from Quark and Grand Nagus Zek, pulls Nog out of school, Jake tutors him behind Rom's back ("The Nagus").

Recognizing his father's failure to capitalize on his proficiency with mechanics and electronics, and not wanting to follow in those footsteps, Nog resolves to go into a career where he can make something of himself. After going through the Ferengi coming of age rite, he requests an apprenticeship under Captain (Commander at the time) Benjamin Sisko in order to attend Starfleet Academy ("Heart of Stone"). Nog is admitted and becomes the first Ferengi in Starfleet ("Facets").

Nog has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
