  • Why is Ro wearing Kira’s d’ja pagh? Seriously, that image at the end is Kira’s.

    This is Kira wearing the d’ja pagh.

    Here is Ro in “Ensign Ro”.

    This is the d’ja pagh Ro gives Picard in “Impostors”.

    EDIT: If you think it’s just a common design, it isn’t. While in the context of DS9’s present day, Bajorans wear the d’ja pagh as a sign of piety that used to represent one’s family. Plus we’ve seen individuals like Li Nalas be identified by their d’ja pagh alone. “Accession” mentions that whole families are identified by their design which also indicates what trade they are in as part of the caste system of older times.

    EDIT 2: That image also shows the d’ja pagh on the right ear. It was established that Ro wasn’t spiritual, and thus wore her’s on the left ear to stop people from feeling her pagh.
