Arlo's first assignment as a member of the Gorkon's crew was to assist in aiding a team of terraforming scientists at the Giáng Sinh colony deal with an unexpected winter, the after effects of an unexplained solar flare. Having grown up in a sub-tropical climate, she was initially unenthused by the the arctic conditions but grew to appreciate the beauty of the planet to the point where she remarked she would miss the planet when Gorkon was reassigned elsewhere. | Arlo's first assignment as a member of the Gorkon's crew was to assist in aiding a team of terraforming scientists at the Giáng Sinh colony deal with an unexpected winter, the after effects of an unexplained solar flare.

Shortly after Gorkon's assignment was complete, the ship was tasked with investigating a string of strange occurrences on the strategically important Romulan colony of Vaeron. Arlo was assigned to lead an away team to investigate a strange sensor 'dead zone' that had appeared at the lowest levels of a Federation-administrated mine known as Calrich's Overhang. It was during this mission that her childhood fear of the dark came back with a vengeance- which was only compounded by the presence of mutated Denebian Slime Devils and strange fungal aliens. Her team eventually discovered a secret 'duckblind' which appeared to link all the strange occurrences and encountered a kidnapped Starfleet officer- [[Rachel Flores]]- who had been subjected to alien experimentation. They identified that the aliens used a species of mycelia as a power source and shut down the duckblind by inducing a metre on cascade in the power systems which destroyed the mycelial spores. | |||
