Danilo Odell was the leader of the Bringloidi, descendants of a group of early-22nd century Human Irish Neo-transcendentalist colonists, living on the Bringloid V colony. His daughter, Brenna, was the real leader of the colony. While his colony was being transported by the USS Enterprise-D, Odell offered some major complaints such as when they tried to start a fire for cooking, only to trigger the ship's fire suppression system. In addition, he found the synthehol whiskey produced by the replicators lacking, although he was impressed with the potency of the Klingon beverage, Chech'tluth.
