Changes: Neural parasite

Revision as of 20:05, 27 February 2015

A neural parasite is a lifeform that attaches itself to the nervous system of a host. There have been several different species encountered by the Federation that fell under this category.

In 2154, the Xindi-Reptilians used a neural parasitic species to brainwash Hoshi Sato. (ENT: "Countdown")
In 2267, the USS Enterprise encountered a Neural parasite at the Deneva colony. (TOS: "Operation -- Annihilate!")
In 2364, the USS Enterprise-D encountered a Neural parasite attempting to infiltrate Starfleet Command. (TNG: "Conspiracy")

-A '''neural parasite''' is an alien lifeform that attaches itself to the nervous system of a host creature.  The host creature nourishes the parasite, as in standard parasitism.  A neural parasite takes parasitism a step further; it is an intelligent creature (or colony of such creatures), and it uses the host for more than just food purposes.  By infiltrating the host's nervous system, it can use the host for any purpose it wishes.
