The Charismatic Fathers of Profit and Loss were a religious order that existed within the Ferengi civilization. They were noted as being a variant of the mainstream Ferengi religious thought and preached faith in miracles of boundless profit without any real work required. In 2371, Olix was dispatched by the order to Deep Space 9 as part of a mission to visit as many Ferengi scattered far from their home planet and bring them the consolation of their religion.
