Biography[]
Matthews was born on reference stardate 1/82.
On stardate 2/18, Matthews served in the engineering department aboard the Federation starship USS Arkadelphia under the command of Captain Ian Vellacora. Matthews ranked highly in strength among lower decks personnel. During the ship's first mission to the border of the Asparax Confederation, Matthews did not feel particularly loyal to the captain.
During the mission, Vellacora came to believe that a Federation invasion was imminent and diverted the ship toward a suicidal confrontation with Klingon forces. At the beginning of the emergency, Matthews could be found on duty at their post. (FASA RPG module: Decision at Midnight)
