| style="background:#ffffff;" align="left" |  Born in T'Vral Kol, Staran considered entering Starfleet but, because of family obligations, decided to serve in Vulcan's self-defense forces. While Staran was a sub-commander on a cruiser in the Vulcan home system during the Dominion War, he received news of his sister's accident. He did his best to raise Savan after receiving custody, but as a disciplined, logical officer with heavy responsibilities, he could not handle the emotional and often unruly child. While Staran had difficulty in maintaining contact with his nephew, he did reach out finally to Savan after he entered the Academy to say that he was impressed by his young nephew's perseverance and ability to rise above the adverse conditions that were presented to him. Savan appreciated the message deeply. The two now stay in occasional contact. Savan will to reach out to his uncle when he needs a clear viewpoint, unfettered by emotion. Staran now holds the rank of commander in the Vulcan fleet. Since the threats posed to Vulcan since the Dominion War and the collapse of the Romulan Star Empire, Staran would prefer a return to the days of the Vulcan High Command, when Vulcan could protect itself more effectively. However, Staran keeps this opinion mostly to himself.

Currently, Staran now holds the rank of commander in the Vulcan fleet. Following the threats posed to Vulcan since the Dominion War and the later collapse of the Romulan Star Empire, Staran would prefer a return to the days of the Vulcan High Command, when Vulcan could protect itself more effectively. While he does not at all favor the militarism and climate of deception that arose at the end of the High Command's era (before being dismantled in the 22nd century) and does believe in the more pacifist philosophy of the present, Staran considers the reliance upon Starfleet and his planetary government's overt avoidance of the use of force as illogical and potentially threatening for all of Vulcan. For the time being, though, he usually keeps this opinion to himself.
