Jania Personal History


Jania is the youngest of three. Only she and her mother have symbionts. Although her father is content without one, her brothers are jealous of her. When she was younger she rubbed it in their faces a bit since they picked on her as a little girl, but these days she just ignores it. She’s still closer to her mom and dad than to her brothers though.

Jania and Nis bonded in an unconventional way: Jania’s mentor in naturalism and geology Yisrah Nis was fatally injured in a rockfall during a hiking trip. Because they were isolated, Yisrah’s symbiont’s only option for survival was to bond with Jania, who was only seventeen. This was psychologically difficult for both of them and caused consternation among the Symbiosis Commission, though they’ve since gone through Zhian'tara to bond properly. Yisrah’s death and a chance encounter with a Starfleet recruiting agent led Jania to join Starfleet as a medic, as she became more interested in helping people than studying rocks.

Although Jania has an adventurous side and loves nature, she can be clumsy. That said, as a medic, she’s quite skilled with her hands. In the academy, she was known for her calming bedside manner, and she was often called to deal with patients who were panicking.

In many cases, she's as fast at accurate diagnoses of injuries without a tricorder as she is with one. She’s by no means a luddite, but if she’s got the time, she prefers to default to low-tech methods of first aid.

Nis Personal History


Nis has had a number of hosts for a symbiont, many of whom lived long lives. This leads Jania to joke that it is a crusty old man. While it has had a variety of hosts, it tends to prefer science-minded hosts. Here is a list of its previous hosts:

Yirin - Host 1 – female – government official/teacher (late 1800s to early 1900s) – This host was a populist firebrand who eventually mellowed out and became a teacher after an embarrassing political defeat.

Kona - Host 2 – m to f trans – government official (1900s) – While still a government official, this host was much the opposite of Yirin, beginning in a more administrative role and being elevated into politics somewhat against her wishes. She stayed in politics all her life, though.

Deesru - Host 3 – female – archaeologist/spy (2000s) – This host began her life as an archaeologist but used her status to serve as a spy for the Trill government after their first contact with the Vulcans went not-so-well in 2055; she was the first to take Nis offworld.

Gaz - Host 4 – non-binary – soldier (late 2000s to 2100s) – This host trained as a soldier after the L’Dira incident but never saw combat because of changes in political structures; they lived a long life even for a Trill and traveled the galaxy.

Ajil - Host 5 – male – geologist (most of 2200s) – This host was a famed geologist who made important discoveries about Trill plate tectonics; he left Trill once but found flying disagreed with him so stayed on-world.

Sudre - Host 6 – male – biologist (late 2200s to early 2300s) – This adventurous biologist died, somewhat ironically, in his early 50s after he’d retired to work at a zoo and was bitten there by a venomous earth serpent.

Mibahm - Host 7 – female – journalist (2300s) – This host was an entertainment journalist who was familiar with Timorzin Lahl. While initially antagonistic after Mibahm wrote a negative review of Timorzin's restaurant, over the years their relationship mellowed, and when Mibahm died, Timorzin spoke some kind words at her funeral.

Yisrah – Host 8 – female - geologist (late 2367 - 2392) - This host was a geologist and explorer who died at the age of 25 in an unexpected accident (late 2300s).
