Adelai Niska is one of the more dangerous enemies of Malcolm Reynolds and his crew. He is the leader of a criminal syndicate that deals in murder, extortion, robbery, drug dealing, and who knows what else.
Niska is an old man, grandfatherly in appearance, with an indeterminate Eastern European accent; he has an antique Tiffany lamp on his desk (which is worth a fortune if an authentic relic of Earth-That-Was).
He had a henchman named Crow, until Malcolm kicked him into the ship's engine intake.
His center of business seems to be a satellite known as Skyplex, in orbit around the world of Ezra.
In the episode War Stories, he captures and tortures Mal and Wash; the rest of the crew invades the Skyplex and kills many of Niska's top people in the process of rescuing their comrades.
