Psychological Profile: Report of Starfleet Counselor Telnorri, Bajoran Sector

The eighth eventual Trill host of the symbiont Dax is the discover of the Bajoran wormhole to the Gamma Quadrant, which catapulted the area into the galactic hotseat. The perspective of seven previous lifetimes has left her with an extremely broad view of life which surprisingly skews to the unpredictable and even mischievous rather than the staid and conservative, while symbiosis itself at times has proved to be problematic in her off-world career.
