Sir, the stolen lemur just bit one of your prostitutes right in the face, and she says she can't go to the hospital because she's, quote, 'tripping balls'.

2383: The U.S.S. Titan, under the command of Captain W. T. Riker, received an emergency distress call while en route to Starbase 51 for maintenance and R&R following their encounter with the Neyel. The distress call was traced to the Trill homeworld, and the Titan set a course at maximum warp to assist. Their hail was responded to by a director at the Trill Science Ministry, Wakien Pyr, who claimed planetary sensors had detected an unusual temporal anomaly in extreme close proximity to the planet, immediately after which a large rectangular alien device had ‘materialised’ in the Science Ministry headquarters’ central quad. Several witnesses claimed to have seen a humanoid alien exit the box controlling a small hover–sled with some form of crate aboard, and had entered one of the science buildings. Captain Riker asked the area to be evacuated of civilian personnel, and for what little of the peaceful Trill’s security forces to form a perimeter, until they arrived and an away team could be sent down to assist. Director Pyr admitted to being extremely agitated and begged Riker to hurry, insisting that while the device appeared to have human writing upon it, scans could not identify its construction materials or any obvious energy signature, and were unable to penetrate beyond the outer surface.
The Titan entered orbit less than a quarter of an hour later and immediately beamed down an armed party to the Science Ministry, led by Commander Tuvok. The device still occupied the centre of the ministry quad, just over a metre square base and nearly three metres tall, and a rich dark blue in colour that contrasted with the more sombrely coloured science buildings. The away team arrived in time to see what appeared to be a human dashing over to the box and entering through a thin door in one side. There followed a noise reportedly similar to a misaligned turbolift rapidly ascending and descending its tube, and the box faded out of sight. The away team reported to the Titan that Tricorder scans detected an antichroniton residue, but otherwise could offer no explanation. Tuvok concluded that the nature and origin of the device was irrelevant at that juncture, remarking that according to reports the visitor had taken an object into the complex, but had failed to leave with it. Therefore, logically, it still remained within the Ministry.
A careful search of the offices and labs located the object, still sat on its hover–sled, in the entrance to one of the medical labs in the lower basement. It had been jury–rigged into one of the base’s power distribution junctures using parts from a nearby replicator that Tuvok postulated had been disassembled with hypersonic pliers. Scans revealed it to be a variable pseudo–environmental eco–tank containing a synthetic fluid similar to that found in Trill Symbiont breeding pools, as well as a juvenile Symbiont. Ministry Doctors were summoned and ran extensive medical tests to both confirm its species and establish its health. Their tests concluded that although the Symbiont was relatively healthy and strong, its physiology subtly differed from other Trill Symbionts in ways that implied it had grown under extremely different environmental conditions to the Trill homeworld. While the artificial ‘pool’ it had arrived in seemed designed to maintain it indefinitely, it would not be able to survive outside of that environment without a host to help sustain it. The surplus of willing and eager hosts on Trill was however complicated by this Symbiont’s slight biochemical and physical differences. A required genetic profile for a plausible host was generated and distributed throughout the network of host candidates. Almost all were found immediately to be incompatible, and the few remaining who were transported to the Science Ministry for further tests were eventually ruled out as well. The Ministry had no choice but to leave the orphan contained within its tank until a suitable host could be found, or until a way could be found to allow it to acclimatise to Trill and the normal breeding pool composition.
The Department of Temporal Investigations sends two agents to investigate the incident; a veteran Agent Yates, along with a newly recruited Agent Dulmur. They begin by interviewing the direct witnesses to the incident, but discover very little, and so eventually expand their interviews to all personnel at the Ministry. The only piece of new information they are able to glean is from a janitor who failed to evacuate the building when the alarm sounded. He claimed to have begun making his way off the premises before being stopped by a man claiming to be a doctor, who apologised for the inconvenience and assured him there was no reason to leave after all, asserting that it was merely an unanticipated sensor accuracy that had caused alarm in the first place. The agents were unable to identify the alleged doctor. Agent Dulmur recalled hearing of a similar incident from his father, who also served in the Department of Temporal Investigations. Neither investigation resulted in a satisfactory resolution.

2400: Seventeen years after the arrival of the orphan on Trill, and no progress had been made in finding a compatible host, or any information as to the genealogy of the orphan or identity of the being that had brought it to Trill. The Symbiont still resided in the apparently bespoke container it had arrived in, although it had been moved to a permanent location within the medical facility. Extremely numerous attempts to make contact with it had failed, as doctors struggled to find a way to communicate through its unique biochemical surroundings. The only plausible solution suggested, by a radical Trill doctor and scientist named Torbel Na’b caused a huge amount of controversy and debate both within the Trill Science Ministry, Trill society, and around the Federation in general.
Na’b had spent the last decade working with Starfleet Medical studying an abandoned outpost apparently built by the Borg that had been discovered in a remote system in the B’Tran Cluster. It would appear the Borg had been attempting to clone genetically enhanced bodies based on different species, although they had been unsuccessful in turning them into viable drones and the outpost had been left to deteriorate to the point where almost the entire power grid had failed. However, the ship that discovered the base had managed to stabilise one of the stasis pods they had found, which contained the only fully preserved specimen remaining. It appeared to be entirely functional physically, but had no detectable sign of consciousness, something the Borg were unable to replicate. The test subject was labelled only by the Borg as #1479–63607, and was a Trill male. The body itself was estimated to be no more than four years old, although anatomically its initial growth had been accelerated to be equivalent to a young fully grown adult, post–pubescent, plausibly in its very late teens and therefore theoretically in peak health. The minor genetic enhancements made by the Borg meant that it had a high tissue regeneration rate, and a particularly strong circulation that caused uncharacteristically warm hands for a Trill. None of these differences however ruled the body out as a potential host candidate, aside from the entirely untested consequence of putting a Symbiont into a consciousless body, and Na’b believed the genetic enhancement made by the Borg would be sufficient to allow the orphan Symbiont to bond successfully and survive.
Moral opinion groups throughout the Federation debated whether Na’b should be allowed to attempt the experiment. Eventually, a council convened by the Science Ministry ruled that the Symbiont was not able to exist to its full potential under its current conditions, and since the body created by the Borg had no conscious or subconscious, and could only biologically operate with the aid of life support, it could not be ruled to be a life–form in its own right. Permission was granted for Na’b to proceed.
The joining process appeared to be a success, although it took several weeks of recovery and adaption before the Symbiont became able exert proper control over the body, and months before it was able to begin to coherently communicate. The operation was a medical first for many reasons, and the first recorded time a Joined Trill had components from only one individual. The only piece of information the Symbiont was able to share was the name it had known itself as; PjhN. The language and origin of the name remain untraceable, and it appeared to be the only memory the Symbiont had of its past, and the only piece of self–identity it had had.
Following PjhN’s recuperation he began an intensive education program, finding he had a natural aptitude for military tactics and sciences and learnt extremely quickly, and trained regularly to recover from the atrophy his body had suffered for more than the first twenty years of its life. He adopted Na’b as a father in the absence of any other family.

2404: PjhN elected to enlist in Starfleet in the hopes of one day discovering the identity of the Symbiont parents he must have. He enrolled at Starfleet Academy Officer’s College, Tactical branch.
2408: PjhN starts his first tour of duty following graduation, aboard the U.S.S. Chelonian.
2409: Following a Borg attack in which the entire senior staff are killed, Ensign PjhN took command of the Chelonian. Shortly after, a promotion by Admiral Quinn to Lieutenant earns PjhN command of a test advanced refit Constitution class Cruiser; registry NX–92775. PjhN names her U.S.S. Blind Io. Further field promotions followed as Starfleet rushed to identify capable officers suitable for rapid advancement to deal with the wars on the Klingon and Borg fronts, and PjhN was asked to command a Heavy Cruiser, and then an Exploration Cruiser, as demand required to meet the war effort.
Mid–2409: PjhN, having received a multitude of accolades, is promoted to Rear Admiral and placed in command of the latest prototype Imperial/Sovereign hybrid Assault Cruiser, which he names the U.S.S. Blind Io, NX–92775–C.
