''' | '''Rear Admiral Quinn Reynolds''' is a psychologically scarred, socially awkward genius who is currently serving as the commanding officer of the [[USS Gorkon]], the flagship of the [[Tyrellian Defence and Exploration Taskforce]]. | ||
Originally trained as an engineer, she served in that capacity and as head of that department aboard the [[USS Triumphant]] and the [[USS Independence-A]]. After recruitment by Starfleet Intelligence, she served as chief of the Starfleet Intelligence division and First Officer aboard [[Starbase 118 Ops|Starbase 118]], then First Officer and later the Commanding Officer of the [[USS Eagle]] and Commanding Officer of the [[USS Drake]]. After a classified tour of duty with Starfleet Intelligence, she returned to the fleet as the Director of Intelligence aboard the [[USS Invicta]], the successor to the [[USS Garuda]] and [[USS Mercury]]. | Originally trained as an engineer, she served in that capacity and as head of that department aboard the [[USS Triumphant]] and the [[USS Independence-A]].

Quinn was never the most ambitious of Starfleet officers; throughout her career she had no desire to command a starship or facility and never dreamt of one day holding the rank of Admiral. As a result, her entrance into the command ranks came as some of a surprise and her goals are currently limited to keeping the people that are her responsibility safe and doing her job to the best of her ability. She is also striving to improve her own self-defence skills, after several incidents where they were found lacking. | Quinn was never the most ambitious of Starfleet officers; throughout her career she had no desire to command a starship or facility and never dreamt of one day holding the rank of Admiral.

====Personal Achievements and Disappointments==== | ====Personal Achievements and Disappointments==== | ||
Quinn has a somewhat unusual relationship with her personal achievements; despite being the holder of multiple PhDs and several years of Research and Design experience at Utopia Planitia shipyards, she does not view these as particularly great accomplishments. Rather, they were something she was expected to achieve - well within her abilities - and so she tends brush off any attention regarding them, which can be interpreted as arrogance. She is genuinely proud of is her acceptance to and graduation from Starfleet Academy, as she found the theoretical work easy, but many other aspects of the Academy's curriculum were a struggle to Quinn and she had to work hard to pass them. | [[Image:Quinn OffDuty.jpg|thumb|325px|Off Duty]] | ||

To her continuing surprise, command seems to come a little more easily and she was tentatively proud of her accomplishments as a First Officer and Captain, though her time in the captain's chair came to an abrupt end when she was faced with the decision all captains dread, and hard to order someone close to their death. | ||

There is, however, a small selection of plants, both mundane and exotic, and a variety of technically accurate starship models, including the [[USS Triumphant]], [[Starbase 118 Ops|Starbase 118]], the [[USS Drake]] and the [[USS Mercury]]. Evidence of her two children is often in clear view, with toys and accessories spread across the rooms. | ||

Born in the Columbia Hills settlement on Mars, Quinn was the child of an illicit liaison between her human mother and deltan father. Her father left before the pregnancy was discovered and her mother's mental condition rapidly deteriorated after giving birth, leaving Quinn primarily in the care of her mother's husband. Her two half-siblings blamed the young girl for taking their mother away and her maternal grandparents maintained an overbearing presence in their grandchildren's lives. Perhaps because of this, she was a quiet, withdrawn child who preferred to play alone, rather than with other children and spent a great deal of time gazing at the stars and shipyards in the sky. | [[Image:Mars.jpg|thumb|175px|Quinn's Homeworld, Mars]]Born in the Columbia Hills settlement on Mars, Quinn was the child of an illicit liaison between her human mother and deltan father.

She displayed a remarkable intellect at an extremely young age; she was gently encouraged by her adoptive father and forcibly pushed by her maternal grandparents into fully exploring her potential. As a direct result, she applied and was accepted by the Daystrom Institute of Technology at the tender age of ten. There, she studied a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics, but growing up on Mars near the Utopia Planitia facility had instilled a love of starships into the girl, and it was in this direction that Quinn chose to channel her genius. Though she found the life of an academic and researcher fulfilling, Quinn felt she had been shoehorned into the role and wished to try something she would actually find challenging; eventually realising this dream by securing herself a place at Starfleet Academy. | She displayed a remarkable intellect at an extremely young age; she was gently encouraged by her adoptive father and forcibly pushed by her maternal grandparents into fully exploring her potential.

Quinn's time at the Academy was unremarkable; over-achieving in all classical academic aspects and under-achieving in just about everything else, she managed to graduate squarely in the middle of her class. Her first assignment, much to her distress, was to the Defiant class starship, the USS Triumphant. There she served in the engineering department, eventually finishing her tour of duty as a Lieutenant and the Chief of Engineering. | Quinn's time at the Academy was unremarkable; over-achieving in all classical academic aspects and under-achieving in just about everything else, she managed to graduate squarely in the middle of her class.

Following the reassignment of | Following the reassignment of the Triumphant and her crew, Quinn was posted to the USS Independence as its Chief Engineer. After a roller-coaster time, both professionally and personally, she requested a transfer to a new duty post and was snapped up by Starfleet Intelligence and posted to Starbase 118. After a classified incident aboard the base, she was transferred to the USS Eagle as the ship's First Officer and later took command of the vessel, a promotion to captain following thereafter. When the Eagle was returned to spacedock for an overhaul, she was reassigned as the commanding officer of the USS Drake. | ||
Her time as a commanding officer came to an end following a classified mission — which, while successful, resulted in significant loss of life among her crew. She returned to the Intelligence fold, and was later posted at the Director of Intelligence for the Menthar Corridor, working from the USS Mercury, USS Garuda and the USS Invicta. Her time in that role was concluded when she was returned back to the captain's chair and placed in command of the [[USS Gorkon]], where she continues to serve. | |||

She operates a closed-door policy and any visitors must request access by ringing the door chime. The door is locked at all times when she is elsewhere on the ship. | ||
