Biography
Quinn Hollis was a dragon rider in the Riders Quadrant at Basgiath War College and one of the few cadets from her first squad to survive into later years. She bonded the dragon Cruth and manifested the rare ability of astral projection, which she used during critical missions, including the Squad Battle where she lured guards away to help her squad steal maps from General Sorrengail’s office.

Signet

She could also project images of other people and even distort her own appearance, though she admitted the latter was easier when moving within the astral plane.
