When Star Trek: Deep Space Nine aired in 1993, it set itself apart from any Star Trek show preceding it with its primary location of a large space station, darker tone and a later-season focus on serialized storytelling. The series thrust its characters into conflict with the Dominion, a military force comprised of many species from the Gamma Quadrant who invaded and threatened Starfleet and the Alpha Quadrant like no other enemy before.Throughout the eventual war, Deep Space Nine told stories about unique characters not typically found in Star Trek. Among the colorful crew and civilians calling the station home was pansexual science officer Jadzia Dax, a Trill played by actress and model Terry Farrell since the series premiere. For six seasons, Dax remained a valued member of the Deep Space Nine crew. Her personal friendship with Benjamin Sisko and her romance with Worf created a lot of memorable moments in the series. Sadly, she died in the Season 6 finale “Tears of the Prophets.” So, why did Terry Farrell leave DS9? Although she appeared as a young woman, Jadzia was a Trill host to a centuries-old symbiont named Dax. Possessing a symbiont was an honor in Trill society, and the two beings effectively merged into one. Jadzia and Dax shared the same body and mind, though Jadzia’s personality was a mix of her own and all the symbiont’s past lives. Even in childhood, Jadzia wanted to be joined with a symbiont. As such, she studied and received degrees in exobiology, astrophysics and other areas of science and archeology — all of which helped make her a successful candidate for joining and a highly regarded Starfleet officer.
