jadzia
Series name: Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Canon notes: Jadzia is lifted from the end of Deep Space 9 season 3 (S3, E25, "Facets"), shortly after her Zhian'tara.
Species: Trill
Age: 31 (Jadzia, born 2341) or over 300 (Dax symbiont, born 2018).
Arrival Condition: Upon arrival, Jadzia is in perfect physical health. However, it is worth noting that the venom contained in the bites of various insects can be dangerous for her, as it can potentially block the neurotransmitters that link her with her symbiont, leading to death.
History: Memory Alpha: Jadzia Dax
Personality:
In order to fully understand Jadzia’s personality, one must first know that she is not human, and it is not only her unique personality that they’re meeting. Jadzia is a Trill: a symbiotic race of aliens from the planet of the same name. Humanoid Trill appear almost entirely human save for a pattern of rosette-shaped markings (which originate at their temples and travel down the entire length of their bodies) and a distinct pouch under their ribs. Trill symbionts, however, are small, wormlike creatures that live in pools found in subterranean caves. When ‘joined’ with their vermiform counterparts, the personalities and memories of both the symbiont and the host blend to form an entirely new entity. In this manner, a symbiont can be passed from host to host, accumulating knowledge and experience through many lifetimes, as they can live to be hundreds, if not thousands of years old.
Jadzia is the eighth host of the Dax symbiont. She has inherited memories of being both male and female, husband and wife, father and mother. She has been a legislator, engineer, gymnast, musician, scientist, and ambassador. As such, Jadzia Dax is open-minded and accepting, with versatile skills and talents, as well as tastes for cuisine and music.
Before being joined, Jadzia was extremely shy, quiet, and reserved, yet still brilliant and determined. Even after the disheartening blow of losing her place in the initiate program, she gathered her courage and reapplied.
As the joined Jadzia Dax, she became a much more confident individual, with over three hundred years of life experience to guide her. Jadzia Dax reveals many facets to her personality: the old, wise, experienced soul, and the quirky, vivacious young woman who is out to make the most of experiencing life.
She can be very unorthodox and, at times, even uncouth. Jadzia has no qualms with asking personal or inappropriate questions, stating at one point that impersonal questions were boring after seven lifetimes, and that she hates to be appropriate. This makes her a great drinking buddy, and that, plus a fearsome poker face, makes her a formidable gambler.
Despite the more rambunctious or mercurial aspects of her personality, Jadzia is also a reliable, loyal friend. Her lifetimes of experience make her an excellent advisor, one who never pulls punches for the sake of spared feelings. She is also a genuinely kind and caring individual who will take youngsters under her wings and help guide them when they need a hand to hold. Her ingenuity and creativity balances high ambition with a down-to-earth pragmatism that helps her get the job done.
Her curiosity, zeal, and dedication to duty make her an ideal Starfleet officer, while her sassy attitude and charming personality make her a great friend to keep around. Jadzia will always stand for what she believes in and never sway from the pursuit of her goals. If you can’t keep up with her, you ought to step out of her way.
Abilities:
Symbiont - The symbiont isn’t exactly what one would consider an ability. Rather, it is a life form that coexists with her, bringing with it seven lifetimes of memories and knowledge which have become a part of Jadzia’s being.
Intelligence - Even before joining with the Dax symbiont, Jadzia was a bright student who earned academic distinctions at Starfleet Academy, where she studied astrophysics, exoarchaeology, exobiology, and zoology.
Martial arts - Jadzia is a skilled fighter, expertly wielding the Klingon bat’leth. She also enjoys wrestling, and is competent in the use of phasers.
Personal Item: A Klingon bat'leth.
