# Personality

**Academy Evaluation**

Riles Dune is very dedicated to his job, though will not discuss details until he is sure of their credibility. He seems to always be thinking ahead of a problem trying to foresee outcomes.

He shows concern for fellow Starfleet personnel, being as involved as necessary to understand them. However, he does not form strong bonds with fellows.

Will disclose very little information regarding his personal life, save for what is already public knowledge.

When not on a mission or directly working on an assignment, Dune displays typically calm, carefree, and jovial attitudes.

When on mission or working on an assignment, Dune's behavior is unpredictable and dependent on the direction a situation is taking or he wants it to go.

*Notes:*
Has shown signs of discomfort during Holodeck simulations.
