Amanda Wilde is a famous and successful holo-novelist residing in England. She is described by Regan as being a caring, free-spirit who 'can tell your star sign as soon as she looks at you'. She writes crime fiction, and likes to think of herself as the 24th century 'Agatha Christie'. She is considered by most who meet her to be a bit of an odd-ball, who like her son, tells things how it is and doesn't register the embarrassing things she says.

His mannerisms mix from being masculine when he's on duty in security - or in a red alert situation - to very slightly feminine when he's in a good mood or gossiping on the bridge when there's nothing else going on. He's very forthright and flirty with other men, regardless of rank. This is usually a character test to see how they will treat Regan in the future. Though he takes his duties very seriously, he has a naturally boyish personality, and has been described by others as having the personal behaviour of a reckless teenager. He has been reprimanded on the Arrow for getting ahead of himself in the chain of command, and for overstepping his bounds in the security department. All of this he regrets, and attributes it to wanting to impress his superiors, yet without thinking the consequences of his actions through. He jokes that he has a 'less than regulation' personality, though he regrets upsetting his crew mates.

* '''Relationships'''
Regan is very much open about his sexuality, and was considered to be quite promiscuous in his early life and at the academy. He's usually very flirty with people and tends to wear his heart on his sleeve, as well as capitalize on his looks. He's overly-confident in himself to chat up potential dates, and but his vanity and narcissism gets him rather annoyed if they don't find him irresistible. Despite his open personality he has never had a serious relationship of more than a few weeks in his life. He was dismayed at being assigned to the Arrow - which has no holodecks - and feared that it would harm his sex life, since according to Regan "if you just want a no-commitment physical encounter, it's easier with holograms. You just deactivate them at the end".

The pressure of being at the academy, combined with many years of guilt and self-loathing took a devastating toll on Regan's mental health. To cope with daily life he began neglecting his studies to go to campus parties and have a good time. He started drinking in his second year, and by the first semester of his third year it developed into a serious problem and he began drinking daily and in secret to the point where he depended on the alcohol to get him through the day. When he washed out of the Academy in 2391 he disappeared and not much is known about his time away from Earth. He was found nine months later on a distant planet, Lakata (A rough and dangerous planet on the bad side of Ferengi space), after a painstaking search by his family. Eventually, through extensive counselling and other medical treatments he has been clean and sober since 2392, and his family used a lot of their influence in Starfleet to get him a second chance at Starfleet Academy in 2393. It is revealed in his crew physical by Ensign Sivok on the USS Arrow that Starfleet Command placed a heavy caveat on his graduation, and he had to pass a mandatory substance test in order to retain his commission.

* '''Lakata'''


Regan very rarely talks about Lakata, only that he ended up there after he was thrown out of the academy by stowing away on a refugee transport. The planet itself is a rough and mostly lawless planet governed with little attention by the Ferengi Alliance, but mostly by criminal gangs. There, while intoxicated with anything he could buy or steal, Regan had to fend for himself living on the dangerous streets and was often brutalised and assaulted by different street gangs and Ferengi administrators as he tried to survive. In 2392 he was located by his family and an extraction from the planet was made whereby he was sent immediately into therapy and rehab.

* '''[[Keneth Nakada]]''' - Keneth and Regan have an amicable friendship, and they enjoy each other's company, though Regan tends to tease him a bit. He considers the engineer to be his best friend on board, cemented by The Brownies of Peace.

* '''[[Artinus Serinus]]''' - Regan's immediate superior in Security. The two are polar opposites in every way, and rarely see eye to eye - professionally or personally. He calls him 'Serious Serinus' behind his back. He hopes they can come to an understanding and learn to respect each other.

* '''[[Serren Tan]]''' - Academy friend posted to the [[USS Gorkon]]. They took their final exam together, and after a recent flirty subspace catch-up Regan began to question his personal feelings for the Trill. He is attracted to Serren physically but isn't sure he can reconcile his feelings with the Host/Symbiont nature of Trill life.

* '''Maxwell Traenor''' - Regan never expected to have anything in common with an older man like Maxwell. The two seem opposites, but after the awards party on Atlas Base, the pair helped a drunk and deteriorating Crewman Thompson back to the ship, and Regan opened up to Maxwell about life as a recovering alcoholic, which ended with Regan crying on his shoulder. Now they have a unique friendship, and Regan regards him as a father figure, but also older brother/wing man.
