Darek was a citizen of Kelemane's planet who owned a residential building in the Central Protectorate. The Doctor stayed in this building when he was sent to the planet to gather information in 2376. Because of a space-time displacement, The Doctor was on the planet for a little more than three years, while he was only gone for approximately twenty minutes from the perspective of the rest of the USS Voyager's crew. During that time, the building was destroyed when a short war erupted between the Central Protecorate and a neighboring state. This character was only mentioned in dialogue.
