'''Off Duty:''' Loxley wears a cap about 99% of the time when off-duty and has a small collection to choose from, depending on his mood. Otherwise, he tends to wear simple, practical outfits - combat trousers or jeans and long-sleeved t-shirts in neutral colours. Whatever the actual garments, he always ends up looking slightly scruffy.

'''Starfleet'''
** '''[[Corliss Fortune]]''' - Loxley found he had feelings for Corliss under unusual circumstances. During the Q-intervention that saw the Gorkon crew living their alternate selves on the Marquis ship Skarbek, 'Staples' spent time with 'Wigs' and witnessed her life-or-death struggle with a Cardassian soldier. When the crew returned to reality their wounds healed but their memories, and feelings; remained.
During shoreleave on Giang Sinh, Loxley clumsily expressed his thoughts and stole a kiss from the Betazoid, an action which resulted in a flurry of empathic feedback almost overwhelming the doctor and sending him running.
After an awkward few days, along with some advice from Genkos, the Loxley and Corliss relationship slowly, tentatively bloomed. From cooking meals, to walks on the beach, the pair are still getting to know each other.
**'''[[Genkos Adea]]''' - The former CMO of the Gorkon, Genkos was Loxley's first mentor within Starfleet. As medical officers, their relationship when working was very professional and the pair worked together seamlessly during emergency surgeries. Lox learned a great deal about how to run a sickbay from Dr Adea. The two also got on well personally, despite an initially awkward set up that saw Ensign Loxley sharing quarters with Genkos's ex-partner.
{{Heading|Personal Quarters|Teal}}
Loxley initially shared quarters with junior officers after joining the Gorkon, but following the mission to Nassau he moved into [[LoxLiss quarters|shared quarters]] with Corliss Fortune.

*'''Scientific journals''': Loxley subscribes to all manner of journals as he likes to keep up-to-date on scientific breakthroughs and the latest in medical treatments. His particular interest is in bio-medical research.

*'''Something''':
*'''Castles''': Lillian's area of Earth history expertise is Middle Ages Europe. She filled Loxley's childhood with visits too, and stories about, the ancient fortifications that border England and Wales and he's carried that youthful fascination with him into adulthood. There's a definite science to castle building, which he appreciates.
 
*'''Smog''': Loxley has taken on ownership of a miniature Maravel Dragon named Smog. Technically Smog is a scientific experiment in miniature genetics which Lox is observing, handing the results to Professor Fulsettinhuw at the Federation Science Institute on Lemma II. In reality, the little dragon is more of a pet.

Sylvek grew up spending almost as much time in hospitals as in schools. The ban on eugenics meant there was a limit on what Federation doctors could do for him. However, the time spent in medical establishments gave him a keen interest in genetics and biology, subjects which he would go on to excel at.

However, the time spent in medical establishments gave him a keen interest in genetics and biology, subjects which he would go on to excel at.


On his 20th birthday, during a family gathering, talk turned to his absent father. A careless comment led Sylvek to discover Sylvek's 'logical' decision before he was born. Sylvik's opinion towards Vulcans and their logic, already not exactly great, was instantly soured. The same day, Sylvek began the process to legally change his name to 'Loxley'.

Sylvek's opinion towards Vulcans and their logic, already not exactly great, was instantly soured. The same day, Sylvek began the process to legally change his name to 'Loxley'.  


A year later, on his 21st birthday, Loxley submitted an application to join Starfleet. Loxley dreamed about being at the cutting edge of medical science, hopefully making breakthroughs of his own one day. He sees Starfleet as the best opportunity for that goal – exploring new space, encountering new and unique situations and circumstances.

{{Heading|Professional History|Teal}}
Loxley was a newly-qualified medical doctor before he joined Starfleet. He had originally trained as a research scientist (specialising on biology and genetics) on Earth but after taking a medical science module which included several months visiting Starfleet medical facilities around the galaxy, including Deep Space 17, Lox changed his focus to medicine. His education included internships at a couple of major hospitals on Earth. Lox graduated medical school aged 22 and applied to Starfleet Academy less than a year later.
{{Heading|Professional History|Teal}} [[Image:Vaath.jpg|thumb|90px|Dr Vaath]]
Loxley has been a minor contributor to some medical research papers since graduating. In 2397 he co-authored a paper with Arlo Thornton on the mushroom spores the Gorkon crew encountered on Vaeron and how to use caffeine to inoculate the planet's miners against the effect of the spores.
 
In 2398, Loxley participated in an undercover mission to locate the 'missing' Admiral Reynolds. Lox took on the role of the Vulcan Dr Vaath, a chemist with Behemoth Pharmaceuticals specialising in ketracel white. In his spare time, Lox likes to tinker with Vaath's history and credentials, brushing up on his knowledge, just in case the disguise is ever needed again.
