Ensign Hammer's Last Mission

Ensign Michael “Hammer” Quinn set out on a routine Mapping mission in Raptor 320. His mission was completed and he was returning to the Raven, but as fate would have it Hammer was captured by the Cylons. Hammer was taken to a remote Laboratory and was used in one of the Cylons cruelest experiments to date. The Cylons were attempting to clone Hammer to create a new line of skin jobs to infiltrate the Colonial Fleet starting with the Battlestar Raven BFC-002.

 

Ens. Hammer’s return was overdue and a search party was sent to locate him and the missing Raptor he was piloting. The Raptor was located, but Hammer was no where to be found. Fortunately an Ion trail was discovered that led the search party to the dwarf planet and the secret Cylon Laboratory.
