As a Ferengi Commerce Authority
agent more meticulous than usual, Brunt has become obsessed with
ruining Quark ever since he investigated his mother's illegal
profit-making in 2371, and a year later tried to end up the
illegal strike at Quark's bar by any means necessary including
the assault of Quark, winding up in Odo's security cell. After
those run-ins Brunt became convinced the barkeeper was a soft, 'hewman'-addled
menace to Ferengi society and tried to break him later in the
year by snapping up Quark's contract for his own desiccated
remains, even though he realized Quark was not really dying.
When Quark broke his contract, Brunt gleefully slapped on a
Ferengi writ that revoked his business permit, confiscated his
assets, and forbade any business or employment association with
other Ferengi. Quark later won a revocation of the writ from
Nagus Zek in 2373, who foiled Brunt's overreaching plot to
become Nagus himself by exposing Zek's reliance on Ishka for
business advice.
Even though he loaned Quark's
team a ship to rescue Ishka from Dominion kidnappers the next
year, Brunt returned to his true colors. In 2374 he manipulated
his way to a brief tenure as Acting Grand Nagus after all, when
Zek was temporarily removed from office during the uproar over
the Ishka-inspired feminist reforms. That reign too was cut
brief after some furious politicking by Zek's camp with one of
the influential FCA directors, Nilva.
