Sakorra Reed: Difference between revisions

Sakorra is happy with the adjustment she has made to her biological Vulcan genetics.  Growing up human was difficult, and though the transformation back to her Vulcan self and the journey she has gone through in recent years has been hard, Sakorra feels that she is more herself now.  Her disappointment, though, is the belief she has that she is responsible for the mental illness her husband suffered in the past.  She believes that her own mental troubles caused unnecessary strain on him.  In addition, he decided to go the way of the Kohlinaru and became an initiate.  He was successful in the program and emerged even less in touch with his emotions than he already was.  Sakorra, having little training in emotion suppression, feels things keenly, and this has caused no little amount of estrangement between the bonded couple.

Recently, Sakorra had suffered from her inattention to the disciplines and their importance.  Her emotions were raw, bordering on out of control.  She was able to hold it together while she was on duty, but often found herself overly emotional at home, in a way that had negatively affected her relationship with her grandfather and her husband, who believed at the time that her son would be better off being raised by her grandfather on Vulcan.  The knowledge that they went behind her back to discuss this coupled with her husband's inattention, coldness, and disapproval of her struck at her heart.

More recently telepathic attacks while held captive by a species the crew of Starbase 118 inadvertantly discovered had left her neural pathways open and raw, prompting hallucinations and extreme heights of temper.  Drawing on old lessons from an unconventional Vulcan healer, Sakorra sought treatment from the adepts at Mt. Seleya, and their lessons, coupled with a spiritual encounter with an ancient power set her back on the path of the Vulcan disciplines.
