*Serving as engineer under Lieutenant Commander LaForge, Lieutenant Junior Grade Reginald Barclay made a bad name for himself with his tardiness and lack of enthusiasm for his work. Barclay's self-esteem got so low, he began to escape from reality using the holodeck to create environments where he was in command. With the help of Counselor Troi, Barclay was able to build his esteem and shake his nickname "Broccoli." He joined an amateur theater group run by Doctor Crusher and slowly began to fit in with the crew. During an investigation of a probe, Barclay's mind was modified by an alien race known as the Cytherians, giving him incredible (albeit temporary) mental skills. *Source: Back of card
