* '''Temperment''': Once a doubt-ridden, anxiety-crippled loner, Shayne is now a doubt-ridden, anxiety-crippled grouch. The stresses of command as a senior officer and then commander *Arrow* did not sit with him, and over two years as a captain have only begun to refine his artificially jagged personality. In recent months, his revelation- that he cannot control everything, and must rely on others to do their best- has begun to temper his hostility, but his unresolved issues from Theta 122 and elsewhere have left deep scars. | |||

*'''Habits''': Many of Shayne's habits are a result of his debilitative anxiety. Fingernails are picked and chewed with abandon, often resulting in their bleeding. A slight stutter can be heard when he is unprepared to speak, and when entering a strange environment, he attempts to locate the exits. Additionally, to help stave off his persistent anxiety, Shayne meditates regularly, using Vulcan disciplines picked up during his time on the campus of Starfleet Academy. | *'''Habits''': Many of Shayne's habits are a result of his debilitative anxiety.

Copies of important Federation documents are visible around the space. A flute is his instrument of choice. | ||

A more competant officer and security chief he has yet to meet, and Thoran's quick wit allowed them to step beyond rank and protocal to forge a firm friendship. Shayne has been both astonished and delighted to see his comrade rising so smartly through the ranks, and had no doubt that Thoran would eventually make captain. | ||

As a newcomer to the 'Columbia', Ash was painfully shy, and Shayne saw himself in her. After expressing care and affection to one another in ways that only the most introverted and understanding could, an inseparable bond formed. Their relationship has grown over years, quietly blossoming in the shadow of threat and exploration to be stronger than either one believed possible. It may be some time before they are ready to properly tie the knot, but until then he is proud to be her partner. | ||
