Throughout his life, Evan has struggled to find balance between his Vulcan and human halves, and this struggle has led to occasional emotional turbulence in his life. Of note, Evan pleaded guilty of assault, conduct unbecoming of an officer, and illegally using a Vulcan mind meld against an unarmed prisoner during a court martial in 2392. Evan was nearly expelled from Starfleet, but extenuating circumstances, and a previously sterling record ultimately led to clemency. Although Evan tried to return to duty following this incident, he eventually asked for his Starfleet commission to be officially suspended. Several months later, he accepted an assignment from [[Federation Security]] to infiltrate, observe, and report on the ''Reya-Laialara''. Evan reportedly 'went native' during his time with the Reya-Laialara, and spent some time dealing with conflicting loyalties to both the group and the Federation. Despite this, he returned to Starfleet in mid-2394.
