Biography
During his most formative years as a cadet, Craig McClintock held Montgomery Scott - the jovial Scottish engineering officer in the same annals of legend alongside Kirk as his idol. His decision to take to the stars was therefore pre-destined, yet as the first of his family to enter Starfleet it was still quite a rupture to leave behind his quaint rural life. As a boy he held apitiude towards the repair of his father's farming equipment, a career in engineering all but certain.

After graduation Craig found his expectations tempered after being assigned to the shipyards of Utopia Planetia. He hadn't even left the solar system, and found the work tedious and mundane. Yet he knew his work was nessesary towards the construction of new ships - ships which would become the front line of the war to come.

Craig finally found his chance towards the end of the war and the final push for Cardassia. With Starfleet suffering a manpower shortage he was thrust into the fierce melee aboard U.S.S. Ajax that was the Dominion War, undergoing his most trying trials yet as an engineering officer attempting to keep a starship battle-ready and living to tell the tale. He found it such a test of his skills - and such fun - that McClintock requested to stay aboard for three more years.

Yet he longed to experience what another more recent idol, Miles O'Brien had as the chief engineer aboard a living, breathing station. Raised rurally in the highlands of Scotland Craig McClintock wished to set down roots in a firm place, and build it with his own two hands. Eventually his long-sought wish was granted along with a promotion to chief engineer. He worked harder and longer hours than ever before in order to prove himself worthy of such a posting, and as the years rolled by McClintock grew to love life aboard a starbase.

As the closest senior engineer with a long practical service record of starbases, Craig was shortly and swiftly transferred to Pioneer Station as Starfleet forces moved across the Neutral Zone, to take charge of the undoubtable repair work nessessary to the station. Despite the minor damage done to Starbase 39-Sierra by the Hobus Supernova, McClintock knew a greater task lay beyond the border - and a bigger challenge.

Psychological Assessment, LT Alyssa Stark, Starbase 39-Sierra
[Dated 2386, extracted from patient notes]
Fierely independent yet loyal, McClintock absorbs himself in his work like any typical Starfleet officer. He views his promotions as hard-won victories, constantly reminding himself of a humble upbringing and beginning after graduation. Confident in his engineering prowess after years aboard starships and starbases alike, he measures his successes against his idol Montgomery Scott, tending to become frustratated and hot-headed when he finds himself perpetually short of his goals.

Physiological Assessment, LT Timothy Rogan, CMO, Pioneer Station
[Dated 2390, extracted from log]
On the topic of McClintock, his condition has noticeably improved since we returned to the station. His anxiety appears to be fading, and his bloodlust for Maria is finally over. Physically, his technology has adapted to his biological systems exactly as a drone's would. The only difference is the technology created by Denara Clarke and inserted during an operation aboard the Orion, as well as being enhanced after the fact. He has shown remarkable courage, strength, and will during this time. Being turned into an interface for the nanovirus ... I can't fathom the strain he's been through. I can only thank the powers that be that he has not turned on us for if he did, nothing short of an execution could stop him. Of that I am certain. However, I prefer to think of him as an extremely valued ally, someone who truly belongs on this station and who will continue to serve us with excellence.
