Andrew Rodriguez

Andrew Rodriguez is the one-man security contingent aboard the Phoenix. Regulations require the presence of at least one noncommissioned officer with combat specialty training. Among his responsibilities is maintaining the crew’s fitness, hand-to-hand combat skills and phaser sidearm qualifications. Being the only Marine on board, he feels like an outsider, and that feeling is punctuated by the fact that few crew members attend his mandatory classes, and he doesn’t feel he has Commander Conrad’s full support. Apart from his military role, Rodriguez maintains a secondary research interest in ancient galactic civilizations.
