Integrity is an important value for Sival.

Integrity has been defined as “the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles that you refuse to change.”<ref>[https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/integrity INTEGRITY definition in the Cambridge English dictionary]</ref> This quality, which Sival has also described as his ‘steadfast rod of truth’ has guided him throughout his life and career, especially. That it aligns with the ethos of Starfleet, as he understands it, is partly what makes being an officer a perfect fit for him. However, just because he has a strong sense of Picard-esque morality, it doesn’t mean he is inflexible or rigid. Rather, he has been able to adapt his quest for truth to almost any situation, and it guides which possibilities to consider when he is exploring permutations of a problem. | ||

=== Disclosure === | === Disclosure === | ||
Introverted by nature, Sival usually does not make much known to others about his personal life; however, he is working on developing the skill of sharing some information, such as interests and some personal experiences, in social situations. Although he is half-human, Sival has also adopted a Vulcan sensibility about only sharing necessary and relevant information, and that usually precludes ‘small talk’ and information about himself. Nevertheless, Sival does ‘open up’ to those he is close to, such as colleagues he works with frequently and respects or with friends. With these people, he also is more open about expressing his emotions as well. With most people, on the other hand, Sival has accepted that he will leave the impression that he is either entirely Vulcan or has chosen a Vulcan way of life, not revealing a rich inner life filled with both ideas and emotion.< | Introverted by nature, Sival usually does not make much known to others about his personal life; however, he is working on developing the skill of sharing some information, such as interests and some personal experiences, in social situations.

Sival believes that emotions should be regulated, not suppressed.

Sival believes that emotions have functions, and they can provide us with critical information when they are effectively regulated.<ref>Galen, Gillian, and Blaise Aguirre. DBT For Dummies. 1st ed., 2021; page 55.</ref> This said, Sival refrains from expressing emotion in most situations, as he considers it unprofessional or bad form. He will show emotions in a calm and restrained manner however among friends and colleagues. Additionally, Sival must either suppress or regulate his emotions to prevent them from becoming too intense and causing damage to his Human/Vulcan biochemistry - he has chosen to regulate them using various techniques. As Sival already appears Vulcan and projects many Vulcan mannerisms, he has accepted that only his closest companions will ever learn this information about him. | ||
