Varaan is typical for a Vulcan. His mind is highly ordered and logical. He possesses a great degree of control over his emotions. Varaan, like most Vulcans, prefers solitude to socializing, meditation and mental discipline to relaxation. When given a task to accomplish, he is able to focus and complete the objective in a very logical and competent manner. However, Varaan does possess a certain degree of imagination, which is especially evident in his sometimes-unique approaches to engineering problems.
Varaan also prefers the company of other Vulcans; the illogical nature of many other alien races (including humans) deters him from getting too close to others.
