Solok and Sakorra have no children

Sakorra's biological mother, T'Prehr, was an operative for the reunification effort on Romulas.  Sakorra remembers very little about her mother.  The last time she saw her was when she was three years old.  She learned recently that her mother's shuttle was destroyed by a Romulan warship commander only twelve hours after Sakorra was genetically altered to appear as though she was Michael and Denara Reed's biological child.

Sakorra's biological father, Saavok, was in the same destroyed shuttle as his wife.  He was also an operative for the reunification effort.  It is believed that Saavok and his wife may have become unstable in the last months of their life, leading to the irrational decision to alter their daughter's genetics after an attempt on her life.

Sakorra's adoptive father, Michael Reed, became the captain of the USS Fury. His wife, Denara Reed, had taken the children back to Earth to live with their grandparents when his ship went missing.  It is presumed that it was last seen near Romulus and that it had defected from Starfleet orders.  Michael loved the child Sakorra.  He renamed her Jefferson, and though his wife often begged him to return the child to Vulcan, Michael refused.   

Sakorra's adoptive mother, Admiral Denara Reed, is an instructor at Starfleet Academy.  Over the years, she grew to hate Sakorra.  She believed that Sakorra would eventually cause them their deaths.  After her husband's disappearance, her hatred grew, and Sakorra ended up living with her grandparents permanantly.  Denara constantly belittled her.  Denara has recently undergone a court martial for her actions in Sakorra's genetic tampering.

Adoptive brother: Lt. Lincoln Reed, DS9.  Lincoln recently lost his fiance in an attack on Trill.  He hasn't been the same since, and he has been passed over for promotion because of dissatisfactory service.

Adoptive sister: Reagan Reed, Risa.  Reagan was the only one in the family to forego Starfleet.  She moved to Risa and officially represents the "pleasure planet."

: Jefferson was born on Vulcan, but at three years of age, her DNA was altered to disguise her as Michael Reed's biological child after a threat on her life, an act her Vulcan grandfather later referred to as a highly illogical and disturbed action. Jefferson grew up with behavioral and emotional difficulties. The difficulties escalated when her father’s starship, the USS Fury, disappeared without a trace. It has not been seen or heard from since.  

Her family being a Starfleet family, she entered the academy and did well, though she had no friends. After her cadet cruise, she was assigned to the USS Kodiak. During a mission, she received an electrical shock which caused her latent Vulcan DNA to overtake her manufactured Terran DNA. The process nearly took her life, but with expert medical care, she emerged from her treatment as a full-fledged Vulcan, no physical trace evident of her former Terran self. Mentally, things were not as seamless. Though now having answers for why she had never adjusted to a Terran lifestyle, Ms. Reed now had the task of integrating her two identities, Jefferson Reed and the Vulcan Sakorra. It took several years and visits to Vulcan to work with healers and Vulcan adepts in the mental disciplines before she was able to finally be at peace with her life.  

She was able to make friends and a home for herself on the Kodiak and eventually married in a traditional bonding ceremony on Vulcan to Lt. Commander Solok, the doctor who had treated her and assisted her in the Vulcan mental disciplines. Though Vulcan, Sakorra has kept many of her Terran tendencies. She is a Vulcan who smiles and laughs, and though she never met her Vulcan parents, she enjoys a newfound relationship with her grandfather, Ambassador Satelk.
