| Martin was a renowned slacker, who often believed that his life would be better served enjoying parties and women rather than contributing to the betterment of the [[Human]] race. He had, against his desire, been assigned the gamma duty shift in the starbase's main reactor control room on New Year's Eve in 2413-2414. | | Martin was a renowned slacker, who often believed that his life would be better served enjoying parties and women rather than contributing to the betterment of the [[Human]] race.

| His investigation took him to [[Jefferies Tubes|Jefferies Tube]] Beta to a problematic EPS distribution system network junction. When he discovered the access panel was hot to the touch, he removed it, releasing a mass of Spoilers. In his haste to escape them, he managed to complete the power circuit between the live conduit, channeled through the insects and his body to be completed with the wall of the access tube.

| The result was a sudden and devastating power spike that created a series of cascading power failures, that plunged the entire station into darkness. The critical bus was destroyed causing the secondary systems to also fail.

| With all the power systems off-line as a result of the damage, back-ups failed to initialize and it soon became evident that the power failure could turn deadly as people began to realize that the life support was no longer functioning as well.
