	Rhinehart is generally more interested in intellectual pursuits than physical. He is a quick study, and keenly interested in all branches of knowledge, although his specialities are philosophy, theology and psychology. He enjoys writing - although his relationship with his keyboard is sometimes fractious - and is currently working on a secret literary project in which he unburdens some of the angst he often feels towards himself. He is a connoiseur of tea, and spends inordinate amounts of time grooming his beard, of which he is justifiably proud. He is currently pursuing a psychology PhD by way of intermittent subspace contact with the Institute of Tellarite Excellence.

	Socially, he feels he has missed the boat somewhat, in terms of cementing informal bonds of friendship with his crewmates, although it is apparent that he has earned the professional respect of most. Meanwhile, his romantic life continues be bumpy: After his on-again off-again frisson with Lt Cdr [[Brianna Frazier]] ended with her injury and subsequent abrupt transfer from the crew, he found himself growing closer to his assistant counsellor [[Dorga cha'Nooras]] following their mind-meld. The possibility of a relationship seemed nullified, however, when cha'Nooras was promoted to second officer of the [[USS Boudicca]] and transferred before Rhinehart could summon up the courage to share his feelings. As of this writing, he remains single.

	Almost immediately upon his arrival on the new vessel, Rhinehart was blind-sided by yet another change. Last minute roster shuffles had removed Captain Rivers' first choice for third officer. Instead, the role was offered to him, along with a promotion to full lieutenant and several decorations for his part in the war's final, decisive battle. Perhaps sensing his moral ambivalence about Starfleet and his future within it, the role was offered on an 'acting' basis until he felt comfortable adopting the mantle completely. Preparations for Rhinehart's bridge command exam were hastily completed, and he passed the test with few apparent problems, although he himself felt it was one of the most difficult experiences of his career so far.

	Meanwhile, the Rosenante took aboard a committee comprised of survivors of the Ivor Prime debacle, including the outspoken Dr [[Laura Schell]], who, since Rhinehart had last seen her, had received a nomination to overall leadership (pending full election) of that colony's survivors. In keeping with their mission of exploration, the Rosenante was to undertake a systematic survey of suitable class-M worlds as candidates for resettling the Ivor Prime colonists, and, ever mindful of the precarious PR position of Starfleet in the aftermath of the war, they traveled with [[Hal Stanza]], the award-winning FNN correspondent who had lionised the 52nd Fleet and won the admiration of many pre-eminent Starfleet officers with his report on [[The Final Flight ~~of the Champlain\|the final flight~~ of the Champlain]].

	After a brief launch ceremony, the Rosenante departed for the Optima system. En route however, they were diverted by a horrifying distress call, picked up during the early portion of Rhinehart's third-ever bridge watch.

	As the fleet prepared to merge and move on sector 001, Rhinehart eased back into his work uncertainly. Now chief of department, he had a small staff under his command and an enormous job to complete. As well as providing the standard crew evaluation required by the new captain, Rhinehart was tasked to conduct in-depth research into the confidential psychological files of Doenitz-loyal command staff, seeking information that could be exploited tactically. Initially perturbed at the ethical implications, he nevertheless agreed to the captain's request in light of the extraordinary attrition they were likely to face, and any possibility, no matter how slender, that it might be ameliorated.

Initially perturbed at the ethical implications, he nevertheless agreed to the captain's request in light of the extraordinary attrition they were likely to face, and any possibility, no matter how slender, that it might be ameliorated.

	The task occupied much of his department's time over the next three trying months. At the same time the crew was drilled relentlessly in preparation for their next mission: to act as the speartip for [[Task Force 19]]. It was a mission that would cause great ambivalence and dread in the amnesiac counsellor, not a warrior by any means. As the ship neared its destination, meanwhile, the existence of a certain black-market video clip came to his attention via his assistant [[Dorga ~~Cha~~'Nooras]], and thus to the attention of the captain. The contents of the video proved to be the key that unlocked the morass of his suppressed memories, bringing them back to his consciousness in a deluge he could not decipher or decode. He began mind-melding therapy sessions with Lt. Dorga which helped him to reclaim the incoherent memories as his own.

He began mind-melding therapy sessions with Lt. Dorga which helped him to reclaim the incoherent memories as his own.

	As his therapy continued, he found himself forming an attachment to the capable Klingon/Vulcan counsellor that went deeper than mere professional courtesy, but in the immediacy of battle, he felt it inappropriate to share that fact. It was a mistake he would come to rue, and vow never to repeat. As the Champlain gathered impetus for the forthcoming fleet action, his mind and heart were occupied with little besides dread. He was not a warrior at heart, and found himself by turns resentful and petrified by the uncomfortable mould Starfleet was forcing him to occupy. His philosophical misgivings were many, but, like the rest of the senior staff, he suppressed them long enough to see the Champlain's part in the mission completed. It ended with the destruction of that vessel only a few short months after her launch, and the narrow escape of the bridge complement. Though the action resulted in victory for the 52nd Fleet, the cost of the conflict was too great to be so easily dismissed.

	En route to Ivor Prime, the Champlain was diverted to the Doenitz-loyal space station [[Deep Space 5]], in order to capture it for Admiral [[LoDona]] and the 52nd Fleet. Following a successful infiltration, Rhinehart was able to convince the station commander, one Captain U'gaeth, to relinquish command and surrender with virtually no loss of life on either side.

	While the Champlain battled the Wyvern, Rhinehart battled for his life. Fast action on the part of CPO Nathan Fuller and his team bridged the gap between life and death for the counsellor and brought him back from the brink. In sickbay, tended by Doctor Henna-star and Nurse Telstra, he was revived a mere matter of hours after his incapacitation, the worst of his physical wounds on the mend. Mentally though, it was another story. His concussion had triggered a traumatic retrograde amnesia that seemed oddly selective. Rhinehart could recall nothing of his identity, and nothing of the other crew members, yet retained his training and professional insights. This led him to conclude that his loss of recall had been, at least in part, psychological in nature. He concluded that he had dissociated, but without anything further to go on, was left floundering in a stranger's skin.		While the Champlain battled the Wyvern, Rhinehart battled for his life.
