Seen in the Star Trek: TNG season four episode #197 “The Host,” which aired the week of May 13, 1991. Trill symbionts were a sentient vermiform lifeform from the planet Trill. They primarily lived symbiotically inside hosts known as the Trill, a humanoid species, also native to the planet. A Trill symbiont joined with a new host through a surgical procedure in which it was placed in the abdomen, where it developed a connection through the narrow part of its body to the host's body. Through the experience gained from multiple hosts, many symbionts gained distinguished reputations. They were long-lived compared to most humanoid species and could easily live beyond 550 years. This symbiont Oden was joined with Willaim Riker on an emergency basis until a new Trill host could be found. When Riker’s life was threatened from the joining the symbiont was then placed in a female Trill host. This was to the dismay of Dr. Crusher who had become romantically attached to Odin but could not accept the female Trill body that it now occupied. The tear drop shaped brownish yellow symbiont is made of foam latex with folded skin. It is highlighted with florescent red veins and yellow, green, blue, and red spots.
