- Gradually working his way up through the ranks, Colonel Link now holds one of the most coveted posts in the Marines: that of Commandant of a large shipboard contingent. Having been recently reassigned to this post. Link is still in the process of learning all about his fellow crewmembers. Until he has accomplished that, he will be rigidly formal and proper, not allowing himself to make any real friendships.
The limp is due to an old disruptor wound in the left leg that did nerve damage and never quite regenerated fully. Though the limp is slight and does not affect his ability to run or shoot in any way, he held the Medical Officer in charge at the time responsible for "crippling" him. That was many years ago, but Link still tends to be a little suspicious of surgeons.
- Description and Personality:
- A big, powerfully-built man. Colonel Link is almost always seen wearing an immaculate uniform. His black hair and steel-gray eyes are distinctive, as is his limp.
Lt Colonel Link belongs, heart and soul, to his work. He will do everything within his power to serve Starfleet Command. If that means dying for them, then he will accept that. If it means capturing Romulans for the purpose of interrogating them, learning about them, analyzing them, even at some risk, then that is the proper course of action. There is nothing more he wants or desires; he already has everything he can expect.
Link is an intense person, dedicated, competent, and unwavering in his duty. He could be a likable fellow if he would relax a little and accept the other crewmembers as people.
Though he hates Romulans and Klingons with a cold-blooded passion, he wants to learn all he can about them, to better aid Starfleet in its conflicts against them.
