Star Trek Online Is Bringing Back Deep Space Nine's Dax
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Even before Star Trek came back in a big way in the streaming era, Star Trek Online had been a haven for seeing old favorites from the TV shows continue their journeys boldly going. That’s not changed even since streaming has become a way to bring these characters back—and STO is still sometimes beating TV to the pip to bring back a few heroes.

Introduced in the final season of the series as a replacement for Terry Farrell’s Jadzia Dax—who was controversially killed off in the season six finale “Tears of the Prophets”—Ezri was a Starfleet counselor who became the surprise new host for the Dax symbiont, the sluglike being that Trills join with to become hosts to all the symbiont’s memories and experiences of prior lives, after Jadzia’s death.
