Anthony Brevelle

professional dutiful competent precise reliable
Ensign Anthony Brevelle served as the recorder on the Starfleet away mission to the Tarchannen III outpost under Lieutenant Susanna Leijten, alongside Ensigns Mendez and Hickman. He documented the outpost investigation with steady professionalism, logging stardate 40164.7 and confirming equipment. Brevelle later grew ill over several days before deserting, with scans confirming his full transformation into a non-humanoid entity, part of the planet's contagion pattern that claimed the entire team except Leijten. His accurate holographic recreation from Starfleet records later proved essential for isolating anomalies in the original footage, underscoring both the routine diligence of exploration support personnel and the irreversible pull on exposed personnel.
