<h3>Beliefs</h3> | |||
While having been raised on the teachings of Surak, he is not the most adamant follower. Perhaps due to the influence of his mother, he views logical as a powerful tool and Surak's teachings as more of an instruction manual for it. Consistently there are times where another tool is necessary or the instruction manual needs to be ignored. As a result socially, he behaves far more emotionally than most Vulcans, although still far less than most other species as emotion is a far more suited tool there. Additionally, he will occasionally apply logic to Surak's teachings (For instance by justifying withholding information from the DTI on the Drake's temporal activities as the needs of the many who may be put into danger by revealing their existence outway his need, as a one, to not lie). This leaves him somewhat in the middle of being a follower of Surak and not following him. | While having been raised on the teachings of Surak, he is not the most adamant follower.

<h2>Relationships</h2> | |||
<h3>Pre-Academy</h3> | |||
*S'bok - James' Father. Growing up he did not see as much of him as he would have liked too, however that has caused no resentment. Despite his unavailability, or perhaps as a result of it, S'bok took great efforts to be a good Father and teacher to his son. | *S'bok - James' Father.

*Satel - James' paternal grandfather. Until his Death when James was 13 years old, James would sometimes spend time living with him while his parents where away. James always thought he looked sad, despite his logical exterior, perhaps because his his wife's passing some 30 years before James' birth. James would usually spend his visits playing games of logic, such as chess or when James was older Kal-Toh, or meditating. In fact James can probably trace back much of his Vulcan cultural knowledge to his Grandfather. | *Satel - James' paternal grandfather.

<h3>Academy</h3> | |||
*[[Otner, Ezri |Ezri Otner]] - A unjoined trill and James roommate for much of James time in the academy. Due to James somewhat antisocial nature she was probably the only relationship he formed during these years and even that was one of necessity owing to her position as his roommate. | *[[Otner, Ezri |Ezri Otner]] - A unjoined trill and James roommate for much of James time in the academy.

<h3>USS Discovery-C</h3> | |||
*[[Shagan, Telice|Telice Shagan]] - James and Shagan where both on the same cadet cruse. They where quite surprised to see each other on the Discovery. Despite spending a year together, they did not know each other that well. Recently, James and Telice have reconciled their differences due to Telice's mistrust of Vulcans after a bad experience with a ambassador and now consider each other friends. | *[[Shagan, Telice|Telice Shagan]] - James and Shagan where both on the same cadet cruse.

<h3>USS Drake</h3> | |||
*[[Pandora]] - James direct boss in Engineering. James is ever so slightly fascinated in the fact that she is an Android and very much appreciates working with another logical being. Due to James' work in AI he also very much appreciates just how complex Pandora is as a program, if only he could get a look at it... | *[[Pandora]] - James direct boss in Engineering.

*[[DyAmone, Wanda| Wanda DyAmone]] - James met Wanda when they split into two teams from the away team in the [[James-Sims#Back to the Future|Back to the Future]] mission. Tensions where high yet Wanda still seemed to mostly remain mostlly logical and insightful, which earned James' respect. In many ways she also reminds him of his friend [[Shagan, Telice|Telice]].

In the Academy James particularly enjoyed studying Artificial Intelligence and Warp Drives, receiving high marks in both areas. In contrast James did not enjoy or show much skill for Diplomacy causing more confusion and irritation than understanding. The same issues existed in Introduction to Starship Combat, due to James' reluctance towards physical activity. When it came to elected credits James chose to once again play his strengths opting for more subjects related to computers of warp mechanics. James found the Vibrations and Waves course in particular to be very challenging, if not somewhat fun. This did however lead to James' only disciplinary for creating a large electromagnet in his quarters. It did however get him full marks in his Electromagnetics and Applications project. | In the Academy James particularly enjoyed studying Artificial Intelligence and Warp Drives, receiving high marks in both areas.
