Destitution Rock was an area of Ferenginar which had numerous cliffs and was referenced in the first draft script of the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine fourth season episode "Body Parts".

In the teleplay, FCA Liquidator Brunt stated that, due to laws prohibiting how he could dispose of Quark's corpse, he would probably have to "settle" for throwing disks of desiccated Quark off the highest cliff on Destitution Rock. Commented Brunt, "Should be fun to watch them shatter onto the rocks below."
