===Physiology===
 
* As a hybrid, Sinda Essen has inherited traits from both Cardassians and Bajorans.
 
** '''Cardassian''': [[Image:Sinda1.jpg|thumb|410px|left|In conversation during shore leave on Alpha Centuri, 2390]]Externally, her physical appearance is more Cardassian. Her skin is very pale with a slight grey tinge compared to Humans, although darker than most Cardassians. Likewise, long jet black hair is a very common Cardassian feature. Essen's senses have developed along Cardassian lines. Her dark eyes grant her good nocturnal sight but make her more sensitive to bright lights. She has better chemoreception (taste/smell) than Humans and Bajorans but a less developed sense of hearing. She is also more susceptible to cold conditions.
**'''Bajoran''': Although she does have the prominent nose ridge of Bajorans, most of the Bajoran physiology is internal with Essen sharing the horizontal heart with an upper and lower ventricle and a highly developed and intricate circulatory system. This makes it likely that, under normal circumstances, Essen would live a lifespan more in common with Bajorans in excess of 100 years. Although Cardassians have a high tolerance to pain, Essen's nervous system is more similar to that of an average Bajoran.

==Manner==
==Manner==
* '''Quarters''': Fairly messy with old uniforms discarded across the floor and the bed permanently unmade. Very little sign of personal possessions. A small, untended [[Bajoran]] shrine sits in one corner with burnt-out incense sticks and a broken [[Bajoran]] earring. An intricate crystal sculpture sits on a shelf, a gift from [[Pandora]].
* '''Quarters''': Essen's quarters are on Deck 4 of the Constitution, down the corridor from the auxillary armoury. Two large windows look out across the port-side saucer section. The rooms are fairly messy with old uniforms discarded across the floor and the bed permanently unmade. There are very few personal possessions. [[Image:Bottle.jpg|thumb|160px|right]]
** '''Main Room''': A small, untended [[Bajoran]] shrine sits in one corner with burnt-out incense sticks and a broken [[MA:Bajoran earring|earring]]. A [[MA:Bajoran spiny basil|spiny basil plant]] rests on the centre table. An intricate crystal sculpture sits on a low shelf, a gift from [[Pandora]]. Opposite it is an odd bottle of Cardassian kanar inside clear Bajoran jumja liquor, a gift from [[Dial]].
** '''Bedroom''': A small music stand and a green Caitian viola take up one part of the room, opposite a pile of clothing that probably needs to be put back through the replicator.
* '''Favourite Room''':  
* '''Favourite Room''':  
* '''Habits''': Flexes her right hand when not concentrating. Essen often addresses non-Bajoran's by their surnames rather than first names, a habit picked up from the [[Bajoran]] convention of putting family names first.

* '''Mental problems (complexes and phobias)''': Essen suffers from issues over her heritage.
* '''Mental problems (complexes and phobias)''': Since her time as the creature called [[Cinder]], Essen has developed a significant fear of cold and a phobia about freezing. She also suffers from issues over her heritage.
* '''Physical Limitations''': Her right hand has never properly healed from a past injury, although Essen has never allowed a Federation doctor to repair the damage. Her Cardassian genes grant her good nocturnal sight but makes her more susceptible to cold conditions. She has better chemoreception (taste/smell) than Humans but a less developed sense of hearing. The implants in her spine give her considerably above average lower-body strength, although she walks with a slight limp.
