Welcome to Fill in the Blank Season 2: Chain of Command!
Each week I will post the collector’s information for one of the cards in the set’s cardlist. Contestants are free to create whatever card they see fit for that slot in the cardlist, keeping in mind the surrounding cards. As the contest progresses, the cardlist will become more and more defined, guiding the contests’ choices.
The theme of our set is Chain of Command. Not every card has to fit the theme, of course, but it’s something to keep in mind when voting. Speaking of voting, as per normal each contestant will vote for one of the previous week’s entries (with the exception that as the contest runner, I will vote ONLY in the case of a tie).
This week’s winner is… a six-way tie! This situation is exactly why I use my vote solely as a tiebreaker, because otherwise I could have voted for an entry which had not received a vote AND break the tie in that card’s favor. Of the cards in the tiebreaker, I vote for… Danny! I love the idea of equipment representing characters.
Here are this week’s entries:

Card #13! This card must come between Data’s Head (Equipment - Card #9) and Rinnak Pire (Personnel - Bajoran - Card #18). Between those cards we have equipment, events, interrupts, missions or a Bajoran personnel.

Equipment
If you command Data, place this equipment in its owner's discard pile. When you play this equipment, name a unique personnel. While present with the named personnel, that personnel is Cunning+10 and gains Programming.

When your Gul or Founder is randomly selected by a dilemma, this personnel is selected instead.
“Low ranking Cardassian soldiers are expected to 'volunteer' for any difficult or dangerous missions their superiors may encounter. This situation didn't get any better once the Dominion arrived.”
