Though somewhat odd and uncomfortably verbose, he has a strong sense of duty and loves life aboard a ship, terrestrial or otherwise.

* '''Style of Dress''': On duty, Quentin likes to keep his uniform in pristine condition. Though he sometimes will fiddle with it when he becomes nervous. Off duty, sometimes he will just undo the jacket of his uniform and various other relaxed variants of his uniform. When he changes however he prefers larger knit sweaters, khakis, comfortable boots, and oxford shirts. An almost utilitarian view on comfort. Lately he has also taken to wearing a watch given to him by his father; a silver linked banded timepiece.

Quentin, wanting to support his friend and peer, accepted and started toward the Alpha Quadrant as Shayne's "man" for the foreseeable future.

Soon after his year at sea was up, he joined the Academy and though it was precisely where he wanted to be, it was still a difficult road for him. He was quite a bit older than the rest of his class and his unorthodox style of problem solving resurrected his nickname and he found himself the target of a certain amount of bullying. But all the same he carried on, hardened by his hometown and the sea, to forge himself into a capable Science Officer with a focus on Xenology (with special classes in alien folklore and myths) and furthering his studies in Anthropology, building on his minor in college with a broader scope of cultures, species, and empires. He also took very well to his basic level flying classes, but never pursued a track as a Pilot. He attributed it to his time on Earth's oceans, telling instructors that he would rather "scan than sail, but a good deck hand should always be well rounded."

Dispatched as part of an Away Team, he was sent to investigate the ship. Immediately signs of trouble revealed themselves. Scorch markets from energy weapons lined the halls and Quentin found evidence of rapid molecular destabilization. A telltale sign of The People's weaponry. He, along with Ensign Nakada and Master Chief Kingsley started to move toward the Bridge but were blocked by a People's boarding party, equipped with massive, battle ready EV suits.

Causing a distraction, Quentin allowed for his companions to incapacitate the People and tag them for custody. But there problems didn't stop there as they took back the Bridge. A massive dampening field, coupled with a rampant and quite aggressive computer virus had taken ahold of the listing vessel, a leftover gift from the former crew who had abandoned ship after their mysterious mission was completed. Though power was restored, thanks to the efforts of Ensigns Nakada, DeBarres, and Caden (working in tandem with the team in Engineering), Quentin was forced to install his command codes and security clearance, effectively ending his tenure as the Juneau's Chief Science Officer and Second Officer.

'''Mission #.05: The Frightful Flight to Starbase 821'''
 
After his abrupt transfer and installation as a "Commanding Officer" of the Arrow, Quentin and his new crew worked to fly the rediscovered ship back to Federation space for repair and debrief. The ship, however, did NOT make it easy as more sabotage (including a bio-mechanical nest of insects and random Warp spikes) revealed itself as they flew. A "lifeline" however was soon thrown to them, as the crew discovered a way to shunt the blasting Warp energy safely(ish) into space and allow themselves to be scooped into a tractor beam by Starbase 821.
 
Soon followed a few days of welcome respite as the ship and it's new crew were allowed berth on 821, while Starfleet Command decided what to do with them all. In the waiting Quentin was made aware of his father's passing and soon official promoted to First Officer, where he would serve under Commander Randal Shayne as the Arrow's new CO/XO.
 
Quentin is now in transit, with the newly repaired and restocked Arrow, to the ALPHA ISLES in the Alpha Quadrant to investigate a number of emergency signals seemingly to originate from the area's main installation in the region; Alpha Base.


Following the mission, Quentin was forced to transfer his Command Codes and Credentials to the Arrow, effectively removing himself from the Juneau's Senior Staff.
It is of the opinion of this program(s) that Quentin Collins displays a respect of the position he now inhabits as well as a keen joy of duty that makes him uniquely suited to perform admirably in the position. However, it is also of the opinion(s) of this programs(s) that the recent loss of his father and subsequent feelings of disconnection and depression that have been dredged to the surface in it's wake might prove to be a hurtle Quentin won't prove able to overcome without serious therapeutic work coupled with rigorous, regular meditation and self-reflection.


The Arrow is currently on course to dock with Starbase 821 for repairs and debreifing.
Further Analysis Requires Further Input.
