Indrid Yirah was born in 2374 as the youngest child to Redena and Darin Kiaon. He grew up in a small town called Heran’zul. Sandwiched in a valley surrounded on all sides by hills and mountains, it rained often and the scenery was filled with lush vegetation, including many kinds of grasses and wildflowers. The people there mostly raised livestock, as they had been doing for hundreds of years and it was in this scenic, if not somewhat static, landscape in which Indrid was raised.

He decided to join the Starfleet Academy rather on a whim, something that was typical of the young Trill. From the outside it seemed like an odd choice and many people he knew just assumed it would be another thing that he dropped after he took the preliminary test but, in truth, Indrid had recognized that his life needed a direction and figured that Starfleet would at least provide him with opportunities to grow.

It was during his second year as an Academy student in which the idea of being joined with a symbiont took root in his mind. He had thought about it before, but more as a passing curiosity than giving it any serious consideration. It was in one of his biology courses where a guest lecturer from the Symbiosis Commission on Trill gave a presentation on the science behind joining that he began to think about it seriously. His final paper for the class ended up being about the commonalities in behavior between Trill symbionts and some species of Earth parasites that altered the behavior of their hosts. While far from being the most tactful paper that he could have written, it was what got him interested in learning more about the evolution between Trill and symbiont. However, there is only so much one can learn from books and interviews; by the end of his third year he had put in his application with the Symbiosis Commission to be joined.

**Biography: Edbur had the shortest life of any of the Yirah Symbiont hosts. Joined with Yirah after graduating with his bachelor's degree in nursing, Edbur was interested in helping people with rare diseases, traveling on missions with groups of medical professionals to the distant outposts and colony worlds that had been stricken with unknown diseases.  

**Joined: 2316 (Age: 57)

**Died: 2400 (Age: 141)

**Biography: In the years between Edbur's death and Nazria's joining, Yirah remained in the quarantine pool at Mak'ala. Trill doctors were able to find a treatment that sent the disease into remission and allowed for Yirah to once again be joined with a host. However, with most initiates fearing a relapse of the disease, it was difficult to find an initiate that would take Yirah. At 57 years old, Nazria was older than most initiates and agreed to be Yirah's host.
