==Personality==
==Personality==
Quinn was placed in an accelerated learning program as a young girl, and so has spent little time interacting with people her own age.  As a result she finds social situations difficult to cope with, often working far better alone than with others.  As a result, she comes across as shy, quiet and frequently nervous.  Once past her unsure exterior, Quinn is a loyal friend, though she frequently misses verbal and non-verbal cues to her friend's feelings.

** Intuition: As an extension of the above, she finds people who operate on intuition and gut-feelings difficult to understand - any course of action she decides on is backed up by reasoned thought and she dislikes following orders that appear to be missing that basis.
