** '''Cardassian''': 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.

Essen's senses have developed along Cardassian lines. Her dark eyes [[Image:Sinda1.jpg|thumb|410px|left|In conversation on shore leave, Starbase 118 in 2390]] 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. | **'''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.

* '''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. | * '''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.

* '''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. | * '''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.
