Jadzia
Dax - Female science officer on the sci-fi
adventure STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE/SYN/1993-99 Jadzia Dax
(Terry Farrell) was a Trill-an alien species who permitted a
356-year-old symbiont worm species to be joined with her body.
The sharing was beneficial for both species. The host body
shared the generations of experiences amassed by the worm and
the worm was guaranteed a nurturing host body to continue its
journey through the ages. When the humanoid host containing
the worm entity neared death, the worm was transplanted into
another host. Space station Captain Benjamin Sisko (Avery
Brooks) called Jadzia Dax "Old Man" because in a former
incarnation the Trill's host body was a male warrior. Jadzia
sported a pattern of leopard like spots that decorated her
forehead and back. She later married a Klingon named Worf
(Michael Dorn) but not before getting plastered at her stag
party which consisted of coed debauchery, exotic male dancers
and a poignant punching out of the groom's meddling
mother-in-law-to-be. Jadzia died on the season finale of the
1997-98 season. Her symbiont worm was transplanted into Ezri
Dax (Nicole de Boer), a student psychiatrist.
