Amon was a Cardassian individual. In the 24th century, Amon was employed as the head waiter at Kurrgo's restaurant on Cardassia Prime.

When Kurrgo was having trouble with Lig withholding a delivery of fresh targ to the restaurant, Amon was dispatched to complete the transaction after Cardassian Union customs agents delayed Lig's starship. Amon was chosen because he was smart enough not to be cheated by Lig, and also because, as a Cardassian, he would know how to deal with paying the Cardassian tariffs to have the delivery released to Kurrgo.
