Physiological Notes
No one could really anticipate how he would mature, given his unique lineage. When Bryce was a child, he, like his biological mother Aribelle Tagren, developed and grew at the same rate as any full-blooded Human. At about the age of 19, the aging process started to slow as a result of his El-Aurian side. The aging process is different for El-Aurian hybrids and seems to be unique to each individual, based off stress, life experience and other factors. There have been theories, with mentions of the Hayflick limit as well as El-Aurian immune systems, but this remains unverified.
Additionally, the El-Aurians are endangered, but are known to be semi-ancient and nomadic in nature. They are also seemingly good listeners and some have a temporal sense. While the latter of that statement may be confined primarily to those that experienced the Nexxus event, Bryce does have a way with his patients that mirrors his mother’s approach: he is personable, sensitive, listens, and follows the platinum rule.

Personal History
Bryce was born to Paul Quinn and his wife Amy, an elementary school teacher, in San Francisco, California. His mother wanted a stable upbringing for him and his twin sister, Elie, so they stayed Earth bound while his father traveled the stars on his Sovereign-class vessel, the USS Poseidon. The family was reunited during times of shore leave, interstellar calls, and an occasional visit to the ship, but the distance strained his parent’s marriage and, eventually, they divorced (the twins were three at the time). His father’s presence at that point was perceived as obligatory at best and when when he later retired from Starfleet, his presence in his children’s lives remained minimal. Duty before family, even when he was no longer active. It’s a bit of a sore topic for Bryce, one that he would not bring up in casual conversation.
His views of his father were made even cloudier when he learned that his biological mother was Aribelle Tagren, an El-Aurian/Human hybrid physician and decorated Starfleet officer. There’s an even deeper history there that left Bryce confused and conflicted, and on some level feeling betrayed by a supposed wonderful officer, a man, a father that continually let him down.
However, Bryce’s personality type allows him to not ruminate on matters for too long. He looks forward to finding ways where he can bring some good into the universe.
That is the drive that compelled him to pursue medicine. It was always something that clicked for him and biology seemed to come naturally. He attended medical school, completed various internships and residencies, and is now a board certified internist with a special interest in chronic and infectious disease.
It was during his quest to become a doctor that an event forever changed Bryce’s course. A bit jaded with Starfleet, the young El-Aurian was committed and content with his civilian medical studies. However, when a Lunar colony in the outskirts of the quadrant suffered a great calamity that resulted in thousands of injuries and casualties in the hundreds, Starfleet called upon civilian medical volunteers to assist. Bryce was one of these volunteers and it was during this time something resonated within him. Even if his father was a piece of work, that didn’t mean all of Starfleet were the same. And, life was much bigger than planet side or Earth.
So many species needed medical attention. They needed medical staff to count on, every day. He immediately enrolled in Starfleet.
At this point of his life, Bryce has completed all of his medical training and has applied himself through the academy and did brief stints on medical ships and space stations, such as DS6. He is still young and fresh, and eager to travel and help where he can.
