Biography[]

Patterson was born on reference stardate 1/96.

On stardate 2/18, Patterson served in the helm and weaponry department aboard the Federation starship USS Arkadelphia under the command of Captain Ian Vellacora. During the ship's first mission to the border of the Asparax Confederation, Patterson did not feel particularly loyal to the captain.

During the mission, Vellacora came to believe that a Federation invasion was imminent and diverted the ship toward a suicidal confrontation with Klingon forces. At the beginning of the emergency, Patterson was off duty in the recreation area. (FASA RPG module: Decision at Midnight)
