Personal History
Quinn Trevias initially sought to practice medicine on his homeworld as a civilian, and thus underwent schooling on Trill to do so. He was very advanced for his age and thus was always a few years younger than his peers. It was there at medical school that he met and married Mira Taek. While Quinn's parents had been ambivalent to his study of medicine, when he expressed his desire to actually practice, they were strongly opposed and applied heavy pressure to get him to take up the family business. Quinn resisted instantly. Mira sided with his parents, and tried to change Quinn's mind. This caused friction and conflict in the marriage that Quinn considered irreparable. They were divorced shortly there after. Partly as a result, Quinn soon became interested in exploring and learning about things outside his planet-bound life. Applying to Star Fleet Academy upon receiving his Medical Degree, Quinn was granted admission to the Medical Officer program and left without a word to his parents.
Quinn enjoyed his time as a cadet immensely, and did well in his classes. Upon graduation he was assigned as a junior medical officer to the USS Kelvin. There Quinn served under Lieutenant Commander Gregory Sherman, the Kelvin's Chief Medical Officer. Quinn served admirably up until his promotion to Lieutenant. He was offered, and accepted a transfer and promotion to Chief Medical Officer on board the USS Bunker Hill under the command of Commodore William Prescott. Quinn continued to progress, displaying a developed ability for leadership and organization. He quickly gained the respect of the crew, specifically the Commanding Officer. Prescott and Quinn both developed the habit of having tea together as much as several times a day. They developed a close working relationship built on mutual respect of one another. Quinn was promoted to Lieutenant Commander and underwent Senior Officer Training on the eve of the Romulan incursion and resultant battle at Star Base 157.
Quinn continued to distinguish himself in war just as he had in peace. He developed the reputation for maintaining a cool head in the most urgent of crises. He lead emergency operations to retrieve injured crewmen from damaged vessels during battle, as well as significant triage operations during battle. One of those battle triage operations led to the fateful twist in his life. An officer from another vessel,Sarah Mynx, has become mortally wounded and was only being kept alive by her symbiont. Her condition was perilous to the point that the Mynx symbiont would eventually perish as well, if not transferred to another suitable host. Of the handful of Trill available for implantation, Quinn turned out to be the only eligible host for implantation due to various reasons that disqualified the other trill. In an emergency session, as time was critical, Quinn was implanted with the Mynx symbiont and the host of Sarah died shortly there after.
After the battle and Bunker Hill's return to dock, he was replaced and put on medical leave to deal with the newly joined process. Sarah Mynx being a highly trained, Tactical Officer, Analyst, and with a background working for Star Fleet Intelligence in their special security section, Quinn Mynx had a lot to deal with in figuring his new self out. He returned to duty 9 months later and was given a battlefield promotion to Commander and made First Officer of the USS Bunker Hill, during another conflict with the Romulans. Having learned to incorporate the previous hosts knowledge and memories into his own self, his new skill sets made him a very successful commander in battle, while remaining true to the personality of Quinn Mynx who was very much a 'frontier physician' with a yearning to explore.
