Garak is a changeling Bard, was born and raised in the grim confines of Outcast Island, a place where all changelings were exiled to hundreds of years ago. It was a prison of its own, an isolated sanctuary for those deemed untrustworthy and dangerous by the rest of the world. For the past several hundred years, Changelings have been subjected to endless oppression, prejudice, and mistrust, confined to their island without any hope of leaving.
