Early Life

Solak was born and raised in ShirKahr on Vulcan. Even as a child, Solak was interested in the very essence of existence, so much so that he spent his youth at the Vulcan Science Academy, studying philosophy. His studies led him to becoming interested in the science of prediction, and soon after he discovered an interest in science in general.

Unlike other young Vulcan children, Solak did not experience much in the way of emotions. Acquaintances of Solak's family often mused that his personality was akin to achieving Kolinahr at birth.


Starfleet Career

Solak eventually became interested in exploration – and to him, Starfleet became a logical career path to apply his lifetime of studies in a practical environment.

Prior to his assignment to the Veritas, Solak was assigned to the USS Solaris.


Personality

Solak has traditionally been socially awkward since joining sTarfleet, as he has lacked the ability to observe and imitate cultural norms.

He is not one to wait for orders when it is obvious what needs to be done. He likes to anticipate a what fellow officer's instructions would be, before they are mentioned. This had sometimes raised the ire of others. After joining Starfleet, he had discovered that the years he spent studying the science of prediction did nothing for attempting to predict the behaviour of other species, especially humans.

Even by Vulcan standards, Solak can be considered too “icy” by his colleagues – especially in stressful situations. He is also known to be blunt at times, without malice. However, this is not always understood, and he has been told several times that he lacks tact.
