Such a public example of the dual nature of the Trill brought to the forefront what had previously been a very private matter to Trill for several millennia. The Burn in the 31st century resulted in the decimation of the symbiont and joinable-host population. By the 32nd century , Trill could be found at the exchanges , but on the homeworld, reconnecting with a symbiont was considered a blessing.

Most Trills were distinguished by two rows of dark spots going down each side of their bodies, from the top of their forehead down their neck to their toes. Their skin color could vary. One of the main neurotransmitters in the Trill brain was isoboramine.
DS9 : " What You Leave Behind " Joined Trills were also extremely allergic to insect bites; the biochemical connections between the host and symbiont could not tolerate the reaction caused by the insects' venom. DS9 : " The Siege " Trill were known for having cold hands. DS9 : " A Man Alone ". The few Trill that were given a symbiont were typically joined in their early- to mid-twenties. The physical process of being joined was irreversible. Once joined, the host and symbiont were dependent on each other after a ninety-three-hour period in which the symbiont bound itself to its host's nervous system.
If the symbiont was removed from the host, symbiont and host would die within hours, even if they were otherwise healthy, unless they were implanted into another host or with another symbiont. DS9 : " Dax ", " Invasive Procedures ".
The brain of a joined Trill has two cerebral nuclei and two different brain wave patterns. In , Julian Bashir compared them with two linked computers , which both work for the same task. The Trill were a technologically advanced species and the Trill Science Ministry was a leading center of learning and experimentation.
Jadzia Dax joked that Trills didn't look for romance the way Humans do. Joined Trills considered it quite a nuisance and viewed it as a weakness of the young. While hosts may have romantic feelings as often as any other sentient species, symbionts tried to live on a higher, more spiritual plane and tried to rise above those sorts of temptations.
In contrast to the greater revelation of their nature, the Trill were not a secretive species. To them, the joined nature of their culture was normal and not something they would think to comment on without prompting.
Indeed, joined Trills could be seen as particularly genial and many served the Federation as distinguished ambassadors , including Odan and Daxs. Trill law forbade reassociation between subsequent hosts of joined persons, whose symbionts were romantically involved in their previous hosts, and the people who the previous hosts were romantically involved with. This was because the main purpose of the transfer of symbionts was to experience new things in life.
Trills who were found guilty of reassociation were expelled from Trill society, meaning that their symbionts die with their current host. DS9 : " Rejoined " Beyond the illegality of it, Trills almost universally viewed reassociation as a cultural taboo, but the degree to which they followed it was up to the individual.
Some Trill took it so far as to not associate with any of their previous hosts' friends, family and colleagues, beyond the rare chance encounter. Others had a very narrow interpretation, and freely associated with the friends and acquaintances of their previous hosts and symbionts, avoiding only those with whom their previous hosts were intimately involved. On average, only three hundred symbionts were available for hosting each year and about a thousand Trills apply for joining.
Because there were many more humanoid Trills than symbionts, prospective hosts were weeded out by a demanding selection procedure, overseen by the Symbiosis Commission. DS9 : " Equilibrium " The competition for the few symbionts was fierce and attracted the brightest and most highly motivated of Trill society. Often, the would-be hosts exceled in their chosen fields and it was not uncommon for them to hold several degrees or distinctions prior to their joining.
Prospective hosts may eventually become initiates under the supervision of a field docent , a joined Trill who evaluates the prospective host's suitability for joining and makes a recommendation to the Commission. A negative recommendation usually meant the initiate was cut from the joining program. DS9 : " Playing God ". Common belief in Trill society holds that only one in a thousand Trills make acceptable hosts. In fact, this figure was vastly understated, and nearly half of the Trill population was capable of being joined.
The myth was perpetuated very carefully, though, in order to avoid widespread chaos which would probably arise if the information were made public, since the symbionts would become, essentially, objects to be fought over, as people fought to gain the few prized symbionts. DS9 : " Equilibrium ". Unless the joined Trill objects, a prospective host may request a specific symbiont.
If a host was weak, the personality of the symbiont would overwhelm it. Joined Trills had several tools at their disposal for dealing with various aspects of their previous hosts. The telepathic ceremony of Himantura allowed a current host to divest the symbiont of the personality and all the memories of a previous host, which were temporarily hosted in volunteers.
The transferring process was performed and supervised by a symbiont Guardian , an unjoined Trill telepath. The ceremony created a chance for closure by having the new host address the previous hosts directly, as a means of distinguishing their voices and cementing the sense of finality of its latest transition.
Similarly, the Rite of Emergence could focus the voice of a single previous host among the memories of the other, allowing for a more direct conversation in times of need for the current host. The zhian'tara ritual was roughly similar to the Vulcan fal-tor-pan ritual, since both enable the respective species to perform a synaptic pattern displacement , the transfer of what could be considered as a soul katra , pagh , etc.
In the mirror universe , it was unclear which side if any the Trill government took in the conflict between the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance and the Terran Rebellion. A number of individual Trills were part of the Rebellion, while others would attempt to remain non-aligned. DS9 : " Through the Looking Glass ". At the time the concept of Trills was first conceived, the idea was at least in the opinion of Brannon Braga "very fresh.
Moore suspected that many freelance writers would have centrally featured the Trill in the premise of TNG : " The Host ", the first episode to depict a Trill, to a degree more than the installment actually does. For the make-up team tasked with designing the look of the Trills, the challenge was threefold: the humanoid host, the abdominal cavity, and the symbiont.
