Talents & Abilities

Mind Meld: You've undergone training in telepathic techniques that allow the melding of minds through physical contact. This always requires a task (normally Control+Science) with a Difficulty of at least 1, which can be opposed by an unwilling participant. If successful, you link minds with the participant, sharing thoughts and memories. Momentum may be spent to gather more information or to deepen telepathic exchanges. The link goes both ways and it is a tiring and potentially hazardous experience. Complications can result in taking Stress, pain, disorientation, or lingering emotional or behavioral difficulties.

Appearance

Sevek is an olive-skinned, male Vulcan of about 50 years of age. He keeps his hair close cropped, favoring a traditional Vulcan style and wears a thin beard along his chin. His right cheek bears a fair-sized scar where shrapnel had hit during the war. Most notably, his right arm is a functional black cybernetic prosthetic device. The prosthetic is very simple in appearance, though clearly artificial.

Background

Sevek was born and raised on a small farm that served as the agricultural supply center for the T'Lem Monastery. Although the hope had been that he would continue on at the agricultural center, it was clear to his family that Sevek's mind was one for the stars. Sevek underwent the kolinahr as a way to prepare for his life in Starfleet, and the belief weas that he would carry on there as a science officer.

Sevek's career at Starfleet Academy took a turn, however, as his aptitudes placed him on the Command track, something that he hadn't initially expected but a path he was willing to take, reasoning that there had been some part of his mind that had been neglected in the farm life and was needing to have actualization. Sevek took well to the Command track of the Academy, becoming well-versed in the qualities of command and leading others by the level-headed example that he set for his fellow cadets.

Upon graduating, Sevek's career continued along its expected track. Those watching his career were sure that he would be in command of his own starship in due time, and that he would be an excellent Captain.
