Background

---

Kudon was raised on planet Vulcan and since a young boy easily grasped starship technology, entering many StarFleet science competitions throughout his youth. At age 18 he entered StarFleet with the goal of becoming an Engineering or Science Officer. In addition to specializing in warp core technology at StarFleet, Kudon developed a strong interest in social science courses as well, especially interstellar diplomatic relations.

His thesis at the Academy focused on an innovate way to make the interaction between a starship's warp core and fusion generator more efficient. Specifically he helped developed algorithms for a ship's computer subsystem responsible for power allocation that contained many variables that Engineering crew could modulate. As each variable is modulated, the amount of primary power generated by fusion generators and auxiliary power coming from an inactive warp core would change to adjust for the needs of the ship at any particular time. He also contributed to the enhancement of encryption techniques to protect warp cores from malicious cyberattacks.

Personality

---

While a StarFleet cadet, Kudon made the decision that he would live with greater emotion than traditional Vulcans, leading to significant conflict with his parents. This decision was informed by a variety of experiences from his youth, but a key factor was an incident when his younger sister, Sareen, was severely beaten by other children claiming to be motivated by Logic Extremists. Especially given the intensity of Vulcan emotions, Kudon can often struggle with emotion regulation, though he has developed sufficient skill through Vulcan meditation techniques to usually avoid being overwhelmed. He tends to let the logical side of him guide his outward interactions with people, but has a vibrant inner life that he considers a world in itself to explore.

Interests

---

Kudon enjoys cooking cuisine from across planetary cultures, giving him a sense of creativity.

He has a penchant for music that evokes emotion, although he is careful to not listen if it stirs too much feeling, as he is still learning how to handle emotions. As an adolescent, he was exposed to Terran Metal from the 20th and 21st centuries, which now he may listen to if he is feeling angry, or simply curious to explore what it is like to be angry.
