Like many Vulcans, Sovek spent much of her early life in pursuit of logic in reason. She has been recognized for exceptional achievement in several fields including quantum physics and subspace theory. | Like many Vulcans, Sovek spent much of her early life in pursuit of logic in reason. She has been recognized for exceptional achievement in several fields including quantum physics and subspace theory. Some years ago (2379), however, her life took a remarkable turn when, while visiting Earth, she suffered a massive brain infection brought on by exposure to an experimental medical treatment. This infection caused her emotions to wildly fluctuate, giving rise to fits of violent temper, self-destructive depression, and uncontrollable visceral urges. During one of these episodes she escaped the medical facility where she was being held. While at liberty she witnessed an accident in which a child named [[Wilks, Jennifer|Jenny Wilks]] was fatally injured. In an effort to comfort the dying child she preformed a Vulcan mind meld. During their melded state Jenny's body died and her consciousness entered Sovek. The presence of a second mind allowed Sovek to stabilize her irrational state. The two became integrated, and remain so to this day, although in most situations Sovek keeps Jenny submerged. | ||
While this dual state initially worried Starfleet Medical, it rapidly became clear that the two personalities, although integrated in some ways, remained essentially two individuals. Sovek, as the elder personality, remained in charge. But she still maintains contact with Jenny's parents, whenever she can. | While this dual state initially worried Starfleet Medical, it rapidly became clear that the two personalities, although integrated in some ways, remained essentially two individuals.
