    This mother-daughter combo will be a boon to the Ferengi affiliation, providing as it does not one but two scarce Ferengi-affiliation females, complete with a total of 3 Empathy and 2 Diplomacy. First, as V.I.P. and CIVILIAN, they play for free at Tower of Commerceimage. Then, not only can they breeze past a Matriarchal Societyimage, you'll be able pass Lethean Telepathic Attackimage and nullify Frame of Mindimage or Reflection Therapyimage without relying on the few Non-Aligned empaths available.

    Lwaxana's special download of Wolfimage gives you a one-time protection of the pair from random death or capture, and Deanna's Plexingimage download will cure Barclay Transporter Phobiaimage or Nightmareimage, or nullify Drumheadimage, Empathic Echoimage, or several other cards.

    They're no less valuable in Warp Speed sealed-deck format, giving you an easy way to complete your 30-point outpost mission (Investigate Sighting IIimage) as well as the means to pass Q-Netimages and Shakas, worth its weight in latinum in the sealed-deck environment.

    Combos:

    • The Trois + Investigate Sightingimage: Either the original version or the "mission II" version is a snap for The Trois, and they can use their Betazoid skills for the Ferengi (with a Bribery-added Affiliation Ferengi icon) as well as for the Federation.
    • The Trois + Lwaxana Troiimage + Deanna Troiimage: Need Navigation or the ability to "unstop" an Away Team? Swap out the pair in a persona exchange for the individual versions, and swap back later after Deanna has used up her once per game "unstopping" skill.
