Vulcan: Difference between revisions

An unspecified Vulcan ship was the first to make formal contact with a [[ma:Gamma Quadrant|Gamma Quadrant]] civilization, the [[ma:Wadi|Wadi]]. As with other space-faring groups, the Vulcans used an easily identifiable subspace band frequency in communication. Over a hundred years ago, a Vulcan science mission responded to the [[ma:Subspace rupture|subspace rupture]] but was lost along with the [[ma:Hanoli system|Hanoli system]] when the rupture expanded while probing it. There were no reports of imagination manifestations, perhaps not too unusual considering their nature. Vulcans are typically stronger than [[ma:Human|Humans]], though they do not boast of this strength. Dr. Bashir beat an otherwise unidentified Vulcan in the finals to lead the [[ma:Starfleet Medical|Starfleet Medical]] school team to the sector tennis championship his final year (2368-69).

Sakonna's request for weapons blew away the pacifist Vulcan stereotype for [[ma:Quark|Quark]]. She's not the only one in the Maquis: another was likely a settler on Volan III. Vulcan honesty is legendary, even to the Ferengi, but despite his crush on Sakonna, Quark agreed to count her Latinum payment for illegal Maquis arms anyway. Although Cardassian mental disciplines may be a match for the Vulcans, they do not employ telepathy.  

Vulcan IDIC pins, highly collectible, were not usually available on Deep Space Nine - one of Quark's would-be expanded sales items by inter-station monitor. The Vulcan healer Senva was nominated for the Carrington Award in 2371. The species is made up of many varied skin tones, including a dark brown. Lieutenant Tuvok serving on the U.S.S. Voyager is a full Vulcan, while legendary Ambassador Spock is half Vulcan and half Human. The Romulans are an offshoot of the Vulcan species.
