Character name: Dax Age (of physical body): 26 (ezri), 363 (dax) General health: Tip-top! This is someone who stays active. Any physical disabilities or medical conditions?: N/a Anything about their physiology that would be considered unusual by someone with a knowledge of human anatomy?: You already know about her worm co-rider. Dax's circulatory system prioritizes the symbiont, hence her hands/feet always being cold unless she's super worked up. A lot more neurotransmitters than humans, a more complex nervous system. The spots are not just for show; they're some part of her homeostasis regulation that the books didn't detail so I shan't either <3 Would you prefer to play out or hand wave the examination? You're already trapped here. ^_^ Anything else I should know?: Unsure how his powers work, but for the flavor of it: Trill seem to live maybe up to 150+ years. / Dax is young for a symbiont; symbionts do not consider themselves old yet at 2000+ years old, and the ones considered "old" are 20,000 y/o. It's my understanding of the implications that the worms do not die naturally at all and may have some sort of 'immortal jellyfish' cell regeneration/self-healing; though they just continue to grow forever. / I feel Palamedes would likely be able to tell host and symbiont are codependent on one another (that is, that it can't be safely separated from ezri's brain)
