Quarian Lem

Quarian Lem was the fifth host of the Lem Trill symbiont.

Quarian was a counselor by vocation, and volunteered to assimilate the Lem symbiont after the previous host, Gaerys commited suicide. His altruism was thought to have helped the Lem symbiont to recover from Gaerys's trauma, and allowed it to remain viable for joining with future hosts. (Starship Independence: "Ultraviolet")

He was known a person of "gentle demeanour", and used to joke frequently that "the Lem symbiont is such a total disaster magnet." ("Shakedown Cruise")
