The '''Free Trader''' is a "pawn shop" or "second hand store" located down in the "Dungeon" of [[StarBase 118 Ops|Starbase 118]]. The shop is named after "non-aligned" ships that ply their trade in open space. Free Traders traditionally have allegiance to no one. The shop is run by a female Betazoid, named, Dayna Qessari (35). She is a striking beauty 5' 7" (170 cm), reddish brown hair and forest green eyes ... but almost NEVER smiles. She is whispered to have the blackest heart of anyone living on the station.
