Solak: Difference between revisions

'''Solak''' is a [[Vulcan]] Stellar Cartographer, currently in service aboard the [[USS Veritas]].

During a joint mission between the [[USS Veritas]] and the [[USS Solaris]], crew from both ships transported to a class-M planet that contained [[Menthar]] ruins, which ultimately was found as the source of [[Sentinel]] - an AI system design to protect Menthar key outposts and planetary systems.  Whilst in the ruins, Solak received a phaser blast to the shoulder from AI controlled orbs which caused him to pass out.

Ensign [[Addison MacKenzie]], who was also part of the away team, tended to Solak.  He regained consciousness, but was suffering from shock and/or concussion which caused him disorientation. He mistook Addison for an "Admiral Quierty" and mistakenly recalled the cause of his injuries as a result of Klingons that "were in a starship mess hall, throwing (explosive) flashlights at Starfleet officers" and swearing in Bajoran.  Informing Addison that he "required sustenance" he requested she replicate him a "toasted Vulcan sandworm and cheese sandwich".  He also mistakenly referred to Lieutenant [[Geoffrey Teller]] as "Godfrey Queller", before telling Addison, "Admiral.  I must get you to safety.  The alpha quadrant, and my toasted sandwich, relies on it."

Word of this incident became legendary amongst the crew of the Solaris, many of whom found it a constant source of amusement.  This was punctuated when a junior officer, a Vulcan named Ensign T'Pako, replicated a toasted sandworm and cheese sandwich on a plate and left it on his assigned bridge console for him to find at the beginning of his shift.
