Personality

Although initially trained as a counsellor, he transitioned to the command track early in his career. Corbin is a highly skilled and professional individual who holds his crew to the highest standards. He is a well-rounded officer with exceptional diplomatic abilities. His also known to have some obsessions, this includes ensuring that every room he enters he inspects it to ensure it is kept clean and that everyone serving is looking smart and presentable. He is known to send anyone back to their quarters to get themselves sorted if they are not looking the "part."

He takes great pride in being a father to two children, both of whom are currently in their early 20s and undergoing training to become esteemed Starfleet officers. He is known to boast about them and their accomplishments. Corbin's wife, who holds a prominent position as the head of one of Betazed's distinguished houses, resides on Betazed. When she visits, he goes over the top in providing the VIP treatment to her and the rest of their family.

Recent Events

Corbin's last command was the USS Shackleton (NCC-79321), which he commanded for one year while the ship was in the Delta Quadrant. In 2400, Starfleet offered him the Columbia. Though he once served on a Sovereign-class explorer and an Obena-class ship, he has never commanded a ship as big as the Columbia.

During Frontier Day, Corbin was home on Betazed while the ship was undergoing minor maintenance at Starbase Bravo. As a result, Corbin and the crew of the Columbia avoided some of the disaster inflicted on other Starfleet ships.

Corbin In-Play

• As a NPC, rarely would he be interacting with every single member of his crew. As a fleet-level NPC, you may use him in your stories as long as you do not alter his personality or history—or kill him.
• Though Corbin is keen on keeping the Columbia as tidy as possible and being one of the finest ships in the fleet, he does care deeply for his crew. Being a father of two twenty year olds, he is keen for those who have joined his crew as junior officers to progress well.
