==General Description & Personality Overview==
Patrick is a young man of fair complexion and average height and weight, well-proportioned and physically fit, even if not overtly muscular, due to sporting activity regularly performed. His hair is a dark brown hue and wavy if left on its own, but he keeps it short as per Starfleet standards. His green eyes often betray, to those bent on observing, a warm spirit contrasting with the “professional coldness” he uses in almost every social relationship.

Patrick comes from a family of strong traditions and being his parents’ only son he had to take over the ‘family burden’ from a very young age… Things like: “Members of the Leroy family have always been respected” or “Every Leroy has reached a great achievement in his life” have been constantly in his ears since he’s been able to speak the first words. Father stressed this family mythos repeatedly putting great expectations on Patrick’s future life and career and thus spoiling the best period one can have in life: carefree young age.

Growing up under father’s high standards Patrick has become methodical and relentless in pursuing his objectives. 
Torn between Engineering and Science branches, when time for the Academy came he finally chose Science for his Starfleet career but he never lost interest for science’s practical applications and can often be seen nosing around in the Engineering department.

Aloof and reserved in duty, he’s quite the loner while working, often straining himself beyond the normal shift hours to get grasp of a solution to a problem. Sometimes so absorbed in the task at hand to fail to share info and progress with the team getting, in some cases, a mistaken reputation for keeping knowledge to himself to further personal advancement. However, he can be warm and pleasant with those he considers his close friends In the end he’s a well-mannered guy who’s early contact with real life has developed his cynical side more than the other aspects of his personality (“I haven’t believed in faeries since my sixth birthday”)
