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.

James was born in the city of Shi'Kahr, Vulcan on the 30th of April 2369. His Father is a Physicist named S'bok, who is half-Vulcan and his mother is a Terran computer programmer called Kaname Nakamura. He was named after his great-grandfather Admiral Nakamura (not Starfleet).
His childhood was mostly spent studying. Even from a young child he wanted nothing more than to succeed academically, and that he did. At the age of 11 he passed the Kahs-Wan and was admitted into the Shi'kahr Academy. The next 5 years of his life are not practically fond times for James and is part of the reason why is emotional shell is so dense. James was mercilessly teased by his fellow students due to his 'impure' heritage. Regularly he was told that "I have noted many resemblances between your Mother and an Earth rodent of the subfamily Cricetinae, while my nose, which is ten times stronger than that of a human, could not fail to detect around your Father a powerful odor of plants in the genus Sambucus." and that "You are so deficient in intellect, that when instructed to bring back a fruit-filled baked pastry, you search for a rational sum for the ratio of the circumference of a circular area to that of a straight segment that passes through the center of the circle and whose endpoints are on the circumference.".

By 2385 James had graduated from Shi'kahr with honours. He entred Starfleet Academy a year early taking Engineering as his major and Com/Ops as his minor. He took Com/Ops in order to have a better understanding of the systems he'd someday have to repair. In 2389 he finally graduated from Starfleet Academy and joined the [[USS_Discovery-C | USS Discovery-C]] as a Com/Ops officer.
James time aboard the Discovery-C was fairly short (approximately two months), however James fondly remembers it. During this time James made friends in [[Shagan, Telice|Telice]], [[Collim, Kieran|Kieran]], [[Cogud, Jorus|Jorus]] and [[Westerbridge, Tom|Tom]]. Unfortunately, the only one James has been able to keep in touch with, so far, is Kieran. During his off-time, his group of friends managed to convince him to go to a local nightclub on DS-285 which ended in complete disaster with the group and [[Waltas, Tyr Jashin| Captain Tyr Waltas]] in the ships sickbay.
By 2390 he had transfered to the [[USS Drake]] as an Engineering Officer where he also found friendship in [[DyAmone, Wanda|Wanda]]. After a particularly interesting surgery (of sorts) on the mechanical [[Pandora]] they bonded over a shared dinner.

| {{n|Oliver|Weston}} - Given James' general dislike of secrecy, James was quite surprised to find that he quite liked Oliver - perhaps due to Oliver's somewhat atypical attitude to intelligence. Out of habit from the "Under a Black Flag" misson, James refers to him as Osazamasu, a Vulcan honorific translating to "Honored Spy".
