When Tu'Peq went on vacation to the human colony on Varbatten III, he discovered his true calling. He realized that while there was a lot of good that he could do in the Institute on Alpha Centauri, he also knew that the discoveries that he made, ground-breaking as they may be, would have little impact on the common person. He decided then to enrole in Starfleet Academy so that he could put his knowledge of the Universe to the test, help people in need, and see, first-hand, the impact of his work. There were many equally capable individuals back on Alpha Centauri who could make equally ground-breaking discoveries themselves so, he felt, his decision was only logical.

Service Record Personal Life Medical Record Academy Transcript PERSONAL LIFE

PERSONALITY

On the surface, Tu'Peq is the prototypical Vulcan: emotionally detached and logical beyond reproach, but peal back the logical veneer and one finds a much more complicated person. Ever since childhood, Tu'Peq has struggled to control his emotions and no matter what he tries, he hasn't been able to fully quiet the storm that brews just beneath the surface. Tu'Peq understood the benefits of leading a logical life on an intellectual level; he has experienced first-hand the manner of person that a Vulcan fully embracing his emotions can be, but is still struggling hard to internalize it. In an attempt to rein in his emotions, so to speak, he attempted to reach kolinahr. Tu'Peq failed to reach kolinahr and this would mark what he would consider his first major failure.

Tu'Peq is fiercely dedicated to his work and spends most of his spare time working on his research in the science lab. It is said by those who know him that he practically lives in the lab. Time spent in his quarters is mostly for rest; namely sleep and meditation as well as his attempts to master the game of Kal'toh. He understands the purpose of socializing with his crewmates, however he is used to being alone and so interacting with his fellow crewmates and even making friends is something that will take practice for him. He views this, among other things, a challenge that he must overcome.

Tu'Peq was born in 2342 to Verat, a Professor at the Vulcan Science Acadamey and T'Liss, a Diplomat. His was a relatively uneventful upbringing; his mother raised him on the Vulcan colony of Prat on the edge of Federation space. He spent many of his formative years with only his mother and older brother Vaatik, while his father remained on Vulcan to teach at the eponymous Science Academy. Tu'Peq has struggled to contain his emotions since a young age which, especially when raised around other Vulcans, made it difficult for him to fit in. His older brother was a stellar student and has since gone on become an Associate Professor of Nano Biology at the Vulcan Science Academy, alongside their father. Tu'Peq made three attempts to enter the Academy himself, when he came of age, but failed all three, disappointing his father a great deal; or however disappointed a Vulcan is permitted to be. He then decided to apply to the University of Alpha Centauri at which he was not only admitted but excelled. His first paper was published in his third year of undergraduate studies which has since been cited hundreds of times. His graduate thesis was completed in less than a year and everyone of his peers expected him to accept the postdoctoral position that was offered to him.

LIFE BEFORE STARFLEET

When Tu'Peq went on vacation to the human colony on Varbatten III, he discovered his true calling. He realized that while there was a lot of good that he could do in the Institute on Alpha Centauri, he also knew that the discoveries that he made, ground-breaking as they may be, would have little impact on the common person. He decided then to enrole in Starfleet Academy so that he could put his knowledge of the Universe to the test, help people in need, and see, first-hand, the impact of his work. There were many equally capable individuals back on Alpha Centauri who could make equally ground-breaking discoveries themselves so, he felt, his decision was only logical.
