Lieutenant Salak is a Vulcan currently assigned to the USS Tiger as Mission Specialist. Twice decorated, he has served within the Ithassa Region for most of the last four years. Amongst his previous assignments, he includes the positions of Chief Engineer aboard the USS Independence, Deep Space 17 and the USS Wallace, Acting Chief Engineer of the USS Phoenix-C and as a Mission Specialist on board both the USS Ronin and USS Independence-A.

  • Eye Colour: Blue
  • Skin Tone: Light
  • Birthmarks, Scars: None on record.
  • Tattoos/Body Modifications: None.
  • Build: Quite thin, broad shoulders.
  • Carriage: Quite often in a hurry, reasonably long strides. Will usually slow down to the pace of whomever he is walking with however.
  • Poses: Usually holding something, typically a cup of Vulcan Spice Tea and/or a PADD. Otherwise, arms are either behind back or folded.
  • Taste in Clothing (when off duty): Either uniform or traditional robes. Does not seem to generally understand the meaning of the words "Shore Leave" or "Off Duty".
  • Shoes: Black, polished
  • Voice: Measured.
  • Handedness: Favours Right-hand but is able to use Left.

Manner

  • Quarters: See below
  • Favourite Room: Has no "favourite", but tends to spend a lot of time in Quarters and in Main Engineering.
  • Mannerisms: Tends to focus on Logic but known to lapse on occasion. Is known to use humour accidentally but has little grasp of the concept. Can be easily confused by slang. Will tend to ask people if they are "agreeable" rather than asking how they feel.
  • Physical Limitations: Stronger than most due to being Vulcan but not good in extreme heat after spending many years on Andor.
  • Temperament: Tries to suppress emotions, thus can seem arrogant at times. Known to be more emotional than most Vulcans but is gradually gaining more control, despite occasional lapses. Expected to have major temperament problems roughly once every seven years.
  • Habits: Drinks a lot of Vulcan Spice Tea. Usually has a PADD to work on, even when off duty. Not a fan of eating meat, especially that which is still alive.
  • Religion/Spiritual Devotion: The Teachings of Surak.

Family

Salak has a typical Vulcan family although the nature of their environments have impacted each persons personality. Vorak is a traditionalist, whilst T'Plar is a more caring, typically motherly figure who does suppress her emotions but not to the extent that most Vulcans would. T'Pel is yet to really grasp logic and has little control over emotions, partially due to an upbringing on Andor away from any Vulcans with the exception of her family.

Spouse

    • Spouse: N/A
    • Place of Marriage: N/A

Salak currently has no children.

Medical History

Very little of Salak's medical records before his enrolment in Starfleet are available, and he is not forthcoming with specifics. It is not on record whether Salak had gone through the Pon Farr before the academy, or suffered any illness in his youth on Andoria.

His medical history during his time in Starfleet is well documented however, but is so far a fairly quiet file. Salak is not a regular visitor to sickbay and has a history of needing to be chased to attend Physicals. He rarely visits in cases of minor injury, citing reasons of logic.

"This award is given to members who show great dedication in their behaviour and simming abilities. A candidate for TOSMA I regularly contributes good, solid ideas to the plot and character development. They also take the time to edit and proof-read their sims to ensure quality in their writing."
"Given to any simmer who has made outstanding contributions to the 118Wiki. Sarpeidon was the world in TOS's "All Our Yesterdays," in which the planet's population created a library containing their entire world's history. This is, in essence, what our wiki strives to become: a collection of our group's history and a simming database."

Starfleet Assessments and Records

Full Article: Salak Starfleet Records

Salak graduated the Academy in October 2381 and was quickly assigned as an Engineer onboard the Steamrunner-Wolverine Class USS Wallace, posted to the station Deep Space 17. He became the acting Chief Engineer in February 2382, a position which became official in August of that year.

Salak remained Chief Engineer of the USS Wallace until it was decommissioned in April 2383. His next posting was as Chief Engineer on the USS Independence. After the destruction of that vessel later that year, he was reassigned to the USS Ronin as a Mission Specialist. The Vulcan didn't spend long on Ronin, moving to a classified assignment before joining the USS Independnece-A less than a year after he'd joined Ronin.

He spent eight months with the new Independence, leaving with half of the senior staff for the USS Tiger, commanded by the Independences' former First Officer, Sidney Riley.

Working Areas

USS Tiger (2385-)
Quarters (Room 03-2921)

Deck 3, Section 29, Compartment 21.


USS Independence-A (2384-2385)
Quarters (Room 02-1221)

Deck 2, Section 12, Compartment 21. As with his quarters on previous facilities, Salak has adjusted the conditions of his Quarters on the Indy-A to reflect his own personal preference. Lighting is violet in hue at 40% normal levels, usually supplemented with candles. Temperature controls are set several degrees colder than the ship norm, at 16C. Salak has a reclining chair in a corner (far left as you enter) under the main windows, with a small glass table beside it. The adjoining wall includes a Replicator. There is also a standard issue 3 seater couch under the main windows, almost directly opposite the main doors. The sleeping area includes a thin wardrobe built into the wall, with a small corner table near the doorway.


USS Independence (2383)
Chief Engineers Office

An annex of Main Engineering, Salak's office on the Independence bore many of the features of it's counterpart on the Wallace. The section contained a long curved desk, approximately half of which was taken up by a console. The other half was a flat surface used to place PADD's and Salak's usual cup of Spice Tea. Behind the desk was a curved window of transparent aluminium giving a clear view of the Warp Core. A long console filled the wall opposite this window, with the end of the section occupied by a replicator terminal, bio-neural gel packs, a relay and access to the Jefferies Tube network.


Deep Space 17 (2381-2383)
Quarters

Little used during Salak's initial time at Deep Space 17 and the USS Wallace, Salak was forced to use his quarters on DS17 after the events of mid-2382. More spacious than his quarters on the Wallace, the room is more airy and spartan; with minimal decoration. The lighting is similar to that of his quarters on the Wallace.


USS Wallace (2381-2383)
Quarters (Room 03-2921)

Deck 3, Section 29, Compartment 21. Salak's Quarters were reasonably small but comfortable. Salak kept his work on a desk close to the door, whilst he kept a meditation lamp on a shelf near by. There was a small table in the middle of the main room upon which he placed the lamp during meditation. The lighting was dark, with tints of purple.

Chief Engineers Office

Salak had an office on Deck 8 which consisted of little more than an Alcove in Engineering. The office contained multiple computer access terminals along with a desk which was frequently cluttered with PADD's.

Subordinates

As Chief Engineer of the USS Wallace, Salak was the Senior Officer for the Engineering department of the vessel and thus members of the department were his sub-ordinates. Due to the nature of the vessel, the Engineering department was usually divided into Teams, a system Salak would later use on other vessels.

Salak's Assistant Chief on Wallace was Ensign McLoughlin. Upon the Independence, his new assistant was Ensign James Culan and he also worked alongside Indy veteran Chief King until the vessels destruction.

As a Mission Specialist on Ronin and the Independence-A, Salak had no true subordinates. His role meant he operated between departments, rather than within one.

Guilds & Duty Post Groups

Salak is a member of the Guild of Vulcans, the Readers Guild and the Starfleet Corps of Engineers, Starbase 118 Division
