Most Trill are distinguished by two rows of spots going down each side of their body, from forehead to toe. Their skin color can vary. While the most seen combination is that of spots being darker than the skin shade, some darker skinned Trills may instead display spots that are lighter than their skin. How wide spread this variation is has not been researched. | Most Trill are distinguished by two rows of spots going down each side of their body, from forehead to toe. Their skin color can vary.

One of the main Neurotransmitters in the Trill brain is Isoboromine. One Trill peculiarity is that they are known for having cold hands. | One of the main Neurotransmitters in the Trill brain is Isoboromine.

Joined Trill are extremely allergic to insect bites; the biochemical connections between the host and [[symbiont]] can not tolerate the reaction caused by the insect's venom. | Joined Trill are extremely allergic to insect bites; the biochemical connections between the host and [[symbiont]] can not tolerate the reaction caused by the insect's venom.<ref name= "Trill MA"/> | ||
The few Trill that are given a symbiont are typically joined in their early to mid-twenties. The physical process of being joined is irreversible. Once joined, the host and symbiont are dependent on each other after 93 hours. If the symbiont is removed from the host, symbiont and host will die within hours, even if they are otherwise healthy, unless they are reimplanted with another host or symbiont. | The few Trill that are given a symbiont are typically joined in their early to mid-twenties.

The brain of a joined Trill has two cerebral nuclei and two different brain wave patterns. [[ma:Julian Bashir|Julian Bashir]] compared them with two linked computers, which both work for the same task, in 2369. | The brain of a joined Trill has two cerebral nuclei and two different brain wave patterns.
