An Angosian government official who serves beside Prime Minister Nayrok while Angosia III seeks Federation membership and tries to keep its imprisoned war veterans out of sight.
Zayner is a senior Angosian official who appears in the third-season episode The Hunted, set in 2366. He works closely with Prime Minister Nayrok during the Enterprise's visit to assess Angosia III for membership of the Federation.
When a prisoner named Roga Danar escapes from the penal colony on Lunar V, Zayner helps present the matter to Picard as the flight of a dangerous criminal. Only later does the crew learn that Danar is one of the soldiers chemically and psychologically altered for the Tarsian War and then shut away by the government that made them.
Zayner is with Nayrok at the end, when the veterans storm the capital and Picard declines to intervene, leaving the Angosian leadership to face the men they created.
