It is of the opinion of these programs that Quentin Collins continues to perform adequately in his duties, providing the ship and her Captain a competent First Officer and decently talented overall officer. However, it is also the opinions of these programs that he continues to act with a sort of recklessness, assuming the best of the people he comes into contact with until they show him otherwise. It is of the opinion of these programs that he start to establish a more pragmatic, more detached view of his subordinates in order to gain the clarity (and practicality) required for higher Command. | It is of the opinion of these programs that Quentin Collins continues to perform adequately in his duties, providing the ship and her Captain a competent First Officer and decently talented overall officer.

'''Mission #3: At the Gates of Madness ( | '''Mission #3: At the Gates of Madness.''' | ||
Quentin's next mission would send him past his own limits of experience. The mysterious signal picked up by the Arrow's scanners during the previous mission had been intensifying and had also garnered the attention of the Sheliak Corporate. So much so that the Corporate leveled an ultimatum at the ship and the planet's base. All refugee ships and Atlas Base staff were to leave the planet and allow the Corporate unfettered access to the planet to reap it's spoils. | |||
Quentin was put in charge of an away team, consistening of Messers DeBarres, Wilde, and R'Ariel, with the goal of facilitating the evacuation as well as rounding up any stragglers from the ships that were no longer spaceworthy. However, this delicate work was interuppted by a massive Corporate ship, the return of the Razor's Edge, and a new accelerated time frame for the Corporate's moving on Theta 122. They now had only minutes, instead of hours. Shuttling to the surface, Quentin and his team caught a lucky break. Evacuation efforts had already been largely underway, bouyed by the Arrow's contact with the base and it's staffing. | |||
Unfortunately, the planet had started to emit massive power spikes, charging the air of the planet and crushing a mining skiff attempting to make a quick buck in the chaos. Attempting to then leave the planet with his team, Quentin again took to the shuttle. Only then to be shot down by a group on the surface. His first encounter with the planet's "Brotherhood of Thet", an insular and slightly agressive cult that had formed on the surface of the planet. After a quick struggle, Quentin was incapacittated by the group, awakening to another representative of the cult who made contact with the team after their subduing of the first group. | |||
The team were then lead to the cult's compound, situated deep in a hidden cave system below Theta's surface. Housing not only a maze like encampment, but an eeriely placid lake, the team were allowed time to rest and recuperate while the group's leader, Father Edward Morgan, was summoned to explain everything. But before he could, Quentin and R'Ariel were accidentially transported through Iconian energy, and deposited deeper into the cave system. Where a massive stone gate, teeming with energy stood. The first of two gates that were connected inside the planet. The second being another free standing gate in the lodgings of Morgan. | |||
Meanwhile, back at the camp, Charlotte DeBarres was forced to restrain Regan Wilde as he had been infected by the indoctrination process of Morgan's cult; thanks to the Iconian gates and their haunting keeper, an injured Iconian. Turns out, the Iconian (called only The Keeper those years ago) had been a scientist eons ago, steeped in the study of space and how to transverse it. Their experiment, The Gates, were an attempt to connect the Iconians to areas of space they couldn't before. But it went wrong, exploding throughout the spectrum of reality and burying two aspects of the Gate Machine in Theta 122 thousands of years ago, the planet forming a sort of protective shell around the Gates. | |||
Keeping The Keeper in a sort of quantum suspension, yearning for a physical body. Which was provided by his "worshippers" in a gristly sacrificial process. | |||
Piecing together the ghoulish misunderstanding, Quentin and Counselor R'Ariel returned to the compound through the gates, arriving in the nick of time before Morgan could continue his ritual. Quentin and the Counselor then attempted to communicate with the Iconian, throwing themselves into a sort of dream state using the psychic connection the cave's waters provided to the Iconian. The pair then appealed to the creature's sense of empathy and reason, calling into question how they all had been perverted by the misunderstanding and how every race feels loss in their own ways. Fortunately for our team, the creature saw reason, releasing it's hold on Morgan's followers and punishing the leader for his wonton disrespect of his follower's lives. | |||
The team then made their way back to the ship where they were checked over by sickbay and then released. | |||
It is of the opinion of these programs that Quentin Collins continues to acquit himself as a capable field officer and effective Command presence in tight situations. However it is also the opinion of these programs that Quentin Collins increasingly displays a willful disregard of his own wellbeing and mental stability, usually to "protect" his fellow crewmembers. This sort of brazen selflessness will presumably lead to Quentin either being injured grievously or even killed. It is of the opinions of these programs that he must foster a healthy distance from his subordanates in order to ensure his own well being and continued existence. | |||

-Prior to the "Brain Event", LTCMMD. Collins was examined by multiple Starfleet physicians, as well as the Academy's Chief Medical Officer and given clean bills of health by all. He also carries little to no genetic pre-existing conditions from his family, leading to the prognosis to stand out among his relatively benign medical history. | -Prior to the "Brain Event", LTCMMD.

-Quentin was working in conjunction with former Eagle Chief Medical Officer Doctor Solok to gain a more academic understanding of his condition. The pair plan to do so with a running log and echogram of the wave activity in order to discern more about the condition.

-Quentin recently connected with new Arrow Medical officer Dr. Cassandra Mason, revealing to her his affliction and starting to lay out a further plan to study his brain. Time will tell if results will show.* | |||
