Personal History
He was born to a junkie mother and unknown father in a squat in Whitechapel in the East End of London. Quin's mother always maintained that his father was the son of a peer of the realm so she gave him what she thought was a 'posh' name. As she was usually high and had a great many male 'friends' Quin never had much faith in her story.

He was abused mentally and physically by several of his mother's live in lovers and a severe beating by one of them led to him being taken into care at the age of 10. He never saw his mother again and believes her to be dead. He has never tried to find her.

Quin left school as soon as he possibly could. He has a sharp intellect and is knowledgeable without being educated. He spent more time playing truant than he did actually attending classes. Inevitably he ended up on the wrong side of the law, starting off with shoplifting and other petty crimes before progressing to burglary and ultimately to the major crime that led to him being recruited for Torchwood.

He loves to read and is addicted to old black and white films of any genre. Although in his opinion Hitchcock is the master. He likes to cook and is knowledgeable about food.

He is friendly without giving much away about himself. However, do not be fooled this is one very bad boy.
