Physical Description Trevor "Patches" Pacioretty has a lean, rangy frame gained from years of running and field exercises. He'll never be mistaken for a weightlifter but his agility and reaction time, along with the compact strength behind it, make him a very good physical specimen. His dark brown hair is usually kept cut very short to satisfy regulations and with his hazel eyes, narrow face, and an easy smile, he appears more youthful than his 33 years.

There is a scar on the bridge of his nose along with other scars: a nasty one that has discoloured the back of his right hand and knuckles, a three-inch scar with plenty of exposed scar tissue below and slightly behind his right ear, and numerous smaller scars on his forearms and hands. The nickname "Patches" came from the amount of medical tape he accumulated during basic training and field exercises, not to mention falling on a Jem'Hadar grenade during his first month of field combat during the Dominion War at age 19.

Patches has seen it all and while he remains ever-vigilant, he carries himself loosely.

Personality & Traits

General Overview Trevor is cheerful, irreverent, and considerably more observant than he lets people assume. He has a habit of making jokes at his own expense, especially when a situation becomes tense. His humour is rarely cruel and never aimed at someone who can't clap back. He likes people, which is perhaps his most important quality, and has an instinct for clocking who is uncomfortable in a crowd and finding some way to help them address their needs.

Beneath his easygoing manner is a seriously deadly professional. He has an amazing memory--capable of remembering briefings, watching his fields of fire, knowing what tools he has at his disposal, and listening when someone with more experience is speaking.

As a team leader, he wants his squad to return to barracks, preferably with all limbs attached. He can be occasionally too casual with authority and has a tendency to keep joking after the joke died long ago.

Those who know him, know that when he goes quiet, there's something amiss.
