Colleagues
| Picture | Name | Ship Posting | Relationship Status | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oddas Aria | USS Juneau | Commanding Officer | Sival has come to respect Captain Oddas Aria. He believes she is a thoughtful and reflective leader who genuinely cares about her ship and crew. He is motivated by her quality that when push comes to shove, she seems like she will take the risk and do what needs to be done. Personally, he has had some awkward conversations with her; thus, he hasn’t been able to get to know her well. Their relationship remains professional, captain - subordinate. | |
| T'Lea | USS Juneau | Colleague | Sival admires T'Lea for her strength of character and no-nonsense attitude, despite her being half Vulcan, like himself. To him, she seems in control of her emotional state, which he has yet to be able to do to his satisfaction. Even though she appears to be behaving facetiously at times, he believes it’s all in good fun, and deep down she cares about her friends and colleagues. He also believes she is sharp, incisive, intelligent and cultured, all qualities he respects. She has a personality that draws out Sival’s introversion and allows him to discuss issues, to which she adds her fresh perspective. Sival is hopeful that T’Lea will consider him to be a friend, if she doesn’t already. | |

This curiosity led to the beginnings of a friendship that occured during an emotional mission.

Background
Sival was born in Rh’lar city on Vulcan on stardate 232410.03 to a Vulcan mother and Human father. Sival inherited typical Vulcan attributes, such as superior strength, endurance and mental abilities when compared to Humans. Physically, he appeared Vulcan through and through. However, even though green blood ran through his veins, his heart was undoubtedly and unabashedly Human. Rather than choosing either a Vulcan or Human “way of life”, Sival believed it was important to break the binary and cultivate his own, unique identity, striving to find balance and harmony among the two species inside of him. The result was an identity that was truly his and belonged to a race and culture all its own.
Childhood
As a child, Sival was endlessly the explorer, always wanting to know what was out there, striving to be open-minded and objective when analyzing whatever he encountered. It could be said that Sival was an explorer of the mind as well, often getting lost in his own thoughts, ruminating over creative and original solutions. It was this inquisitive nature, along with his love for solving mysteries and piecing together puzzles about the natural world that motivated Sival to tag along with his father as he practiced family medicine.
Education
Sival's own Human compassion and the example of his father’s empathy that compelled him to choose medicine as a career. Thus, Sival completed a Medical Degree in comparative physiology, then, perhaps inspired by his unique and very personal experience regarding his own sense of self, he obtained a Ph.D. in Psychology and an additional M.D. in Psychiatry.
Condar Hospital
Role: Resident - Differential Diagnosis, Comparative Physiology Role: General Practitioner - Family Medicine
Starting his career as a resident at the Condar Hospital on Betazed, Sival strived to match his level of creativity and curiosity with that of his discipline, completing his work precisely and objectively. It was throughout this time, partly by virtue of working on Betazed, Sival nurtured his sense of compassion for all sentient beings.
Médecins Sans Frontières
Roles: General Practitioner and Emergency Medicine Events: Hobus Supernova Locations: Vashti
It was an unyielding drive to heal others that led Sival to working with Médecins Sans Frontières. Sival’s ability to analyze problems, spot irregularities and come up with original, practical solutions with limited resources was valued by the corps. During this period, Sival worked with many species, including refugees from the evacuation of the Romulan Homeworld, encounters which would also shape his unique relationship with his emotional mind.
Psychiatry Practice
Role: Psychiatrist - Sally Bellero Psychiatric Institute, University Hospital, Mars Role: Psychiatrist - Hartford Hospital, Earth Role: General Practitioner - Family Medicine, Hartford Hospital, Earth
Sival was drawn back to the Sol System by a desire to further explore what it means “to be”, setting up his own psychiatry practices working with Trauma and PTSD patients, many of whom were current or former members of Starfleet. Thus, Starfleet was constantly being brought to the forefront of his mind, both by way of compassion for his patients and his own curiosity about the organizations.
Starfleet Academy
After some years of reflection, Sival realized that Starfleet was a place where he could make a difference. It provided him with opportunities to heal along with the resources that intellectually stimulated him and offered a way for him to acquire new knowledge, solve conundrums and seek Truth with a capital "T". Sival also considered himself to already be an explorer of the natural world, the workings of sentient minds, and the mysteries of heart, so what better place to be an explorer than Starfleet?
Starfleet
Sival’s first posting was on the USS Arrow. He was inactive for a time. He attended academy retraining and was reposted to the USS Juneau.
Missions and Shoreleaves
(Click to Expand)
Shore leave - Lightside Station (2398)
It was during the USS Juneau’s shore leave at Lightside Station that Sival first reported for duty aboard the ship. He used the time to explore the ship’s state-of-the-art medical facilities, as well as indulge in a research project pertaining to physical emotional regulation. Sival was able to collect bio data first hand as he observed what was supposed to be a test flight of a shuttle that Captain Oddas Aria had built. When things didn’t quite go as planned, Sival was able to see how the crew members managed their emotions while under stress (in addition to doing his medical duty, of course). He set up a hub in Secondary Sickbay’s medical office to work on the project, filling the room with PADDs while still keeping the room (mostly) functional.
Sival also used the time to experiment with his own emotions, temporarily abandoning a philosophy of emotional regulation and suppression. Being half-human, Sival tried giving up using ‘techniques’ to control his emotions, hoping he could manage them more freely. However, he learned that he unfortunately could not, as even the smallest emotions quickly became too intense without him even realizing it. Sival has since returned to his normal regiment of emotional regulation. However, he still allows himself to feel emotions related to compassion and wonder, as he has practiced controlling and expressing these emotions for decades.
Sival also continued to work on his social interaction skills in a variety of settings, with mixed results. He has resolved to continue working with the counselling department on this matter.
