Personal History
Lodo Sevaeus was already in Starfleet when he was selected as an emergency replacement for the host of the symbiont known as Ashe. While serving on board USS Sturgeon the Chief Medical Officer, Naedren Ashe, was killed in combat. The Ashe symbiont needed to be transplanted to another host or perish as well. Lodo Sevaeus was the only candidate as there were no other Trill crew members serving on the Sturgeon. With no other medical options, the joining was permanent despite Sevaeus never having been screened by the Symbiosis Commission.
A competent but uninspired officer, Lodo was changed dramatically when paired with Ashe. The unremarkable man gained great motivation, insight, wisdom and many of his natural abilities reached their full potential. Like many joined Trills, Lodo Ashe became something of a polymath; knowledgeable in many fields and possessed of a natural charisma brought on by three centuries of experience.
While not usually known for his sense of humor, the addition of the Ashe symbiont has given Lodo an eccentric character that some find humorous. Like many joined Trills, Ashe has a sense of calm and philosophical awareness from the combined experience of both life forms.
Education Background
Lodo Sevaeus entered the Starfleet Equivalency Institute on Trill when he was 16. This curriculum, plus a truncated two year assignment to the Academy saw him graduate at the age of twenty with a specialization in Tactics and Security with a minor emphasis in Engineering.
During his early career, he qualified as a Flight Control Officer.
After being joined and becoming Lodo Ashe, he quickly challenged a number of Starfleet qualifying exams and became rated in Operations, Advanced Space Sciences, and Advanced Engineering. Ashe also received certification as Starfleet field medic. While serving aboard USS Sturgeon, Ashe passed the Command Officer exams and qualified for service as a bridge watch officer.
Ashe continues to place the same high emphasis on Tactical and Security training as he did when he was Lodo Sevaeus. Ashe holds Starfleet certifications as an instructor in small arms combat, unarmed combat as well as advanced starship tactics and starship weapons design/operation.
This training, combined with his impressive physical skills has made Ashe one of the most capable combat officers in the fleet.
Like many joined Trills, Ashe⤙s exceptional lifespan also makes him something of an expert on general history, but he has no official credentials as such. Further, Lodo has access to several lifetimes worth of training and information through the memories of the preceding hosts of the Ashe symbiont. This information can be useful, but beyond the most recent hosts, it is not something on which he has complete recall.
Ashe has been rated within the 90th percentile on general intelligence tests among Starfleet personnel. As Lodo Sevaeus, he was consistently ranked no higher than the 48th percentile.
