An Entity of Type : dbkwik:resource/WEzdaR2Q0NATt-VZ-SRXhg==, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The joKara themselves are small serpent-like Parasites, approximately 4 hands long, that require a host body if they are to leave their natural environment. Once they burrowed into body (which can be accomplished by piercing the skin in the neck, or entering through the mouth), the parasite begins to wrap itself around the host's spine. The joKara then weaves itself around the nervous system, where thin filaments are extended that go up into the brain itself.

abstract	The joKara themselves are small serpent-like Parasites, approximately 4 hands long, that require a host body if they are to leave their natural environment. Once they burrowed into body (which can be accomplished by piercing the skin in the neck, or entering through the mouth), the parasite begins to wrap itself around the host's spine. The joKara then weaves itself around the nervous system, where thin filaments are extended that go up into the brain itself. If the joKara had taken control of the host body and become one with it, it possessed the capacity of exerting a remarkable level of control over it. This allowed them the capacity to kill the host at will if there was need, or if they were threatened by others. The current level of medical knowledge and technology have been proven ineffective in removing the parasite from the host. Even advanced species can be susceptible to this as the parasite can release a deadly poison that can kill the host upon removal. However, the there are rumors that the Elder Races have advanced techniques, allowing them to remove a parasite from its host. This has never been verified, and the techniques may only work on the Elder Races. Infant joKara that had not reached maturity were not capable of fully taking over a host and only retained control of them for short periods of time which were experienced as black outs by the host. This resulted in a struggle being fought over the host body between the parasite and the host itself. A Queen joKara was responsible for producing new young larval joKara. When encountering a new species, the Queen first required a sample the code of life, known as DNA, from the species intended to be a host. This was to ensure that there was no rejection during the process between host and larva. One of the unique factors of the joKara race included their genetic memory which provided each newborn parasite the collective knowledge of all the joKara that came before it. Another element included within their bodies was benaarite which served as a key to preventing access to their magical abilities, and even allowed them to sense the benaarite present elsewhere.
