Educational Background --------------------------- A. Vulcan Academy of Culture B. Starfleet Academy Activities: Prior to the destruction of Vulcan Sefal was a historian on Vulcan and one of their foremost experts on linguistics. After the destruction of her world, Sefal applied immediately to Star Fleet, was accepted immediately to the academy and graduated in half the normal time on account of her prior education and zealous dedication to her studies. Since beginning Star Fleet academy, Sefal has shown an interest in hand-to-hand combat and marksmanship, devoting the same determination and focus to these tasks as she did to her studies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ III.

Background Summary: ----------------------- Sefal was always a paragon of Vulcan culture and values. She believed deeply in the teachings of Surek and in the path of logic. Aptitude testing revealed an extreme gift in the learning of languages, demonstrated by the fact that had learned the Klingon language to a highly conversational level as a young child, merely by viewing a Klingon opera and reading the accompanying libretto. Her education continued on a cultural, rather than scientific or religious path, first with the history of the Vulcans themselves and their many off-shoots, then expanding to the other Federation and eventually non-Federation races. Her facility with language is such that she is often able to adapt even to the cultural aspects of a language, making it difficult for most to indentify her as a non-native speaker, except of course for her appearance. Her reckoning of the logical teachings of Vulcan is that it would be illogical to omit the emotionality of a culture’s communication when communicating with its members. The destruction of Vulcan in 2260, however, changed everything. Where was logic when Nero created a singularity in the core of Vulcan itself? Clearly, there was no longer a need for a Vulcan Ambassador to Andor, and as a member of what was now an endangered species, Sefal suddenly found herself one of the few remaining Vulcans, even fewer with her cultural knowledge. The aged Ambassador Spock asked that she participate in the new colony in a leadership role, but despite all of her training in the ways of logic, all that Sefal could think of vengeance, a vengeance. From that moment, she abandoned the ways of logic and devoted every ounce of discipline toward the goal of making sure something like what happened to Vulcan never happens again. Of course, nobody knows that her idea of how this would be is for the Romulans to be utterly annihilated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ IV. Skills Profile ------------------ Sefal is a linguistic genius. When someone speaks in a foreign language, its as thought she can “see” the patterns and before long, repeat and assimilate them. While traveling on Earth, Sefal took a tour of the Mayan Ruins in Mexico, and was speaking fluent Spanish barely an hour after her first exposure to the language. Sefal has exceptionally sensitive hearing, which plays a significant part in her ability with language, and has also helped her in hand-to-hand combat and other martial training. In the two years since the destruction of Vulcan, Sefal has also become a very competent marksman and a skilled martial artist, devoting most of her considerable rage to the study of all things combative. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ VI. Recent Fitness Report -------------------------- Sefal is in excellent health for a Vulcan of her age, which is well short of middle age by the standards of her race. Since her entrance to Starfleet Academy Sefal has taken to regular, vigorous exercise and is now extremely strong, even by Vulcan standards. She has no health problems of significance, though is susceptible to headaches and ringing in her ears, perhaps a by-product of her over-sensitive hearing. Dr. Rachel Kraus, Starfleet Academy, Duty Physician ------------------------------------------------------------------------ VII. Psychological Profile --------------------------- Like most Vulcans, it is very difficult to “read” Sefal. She is skilled in the Vulcan arts, but like others of her race, she buries her emotions deep. What nobody can see is the rage that is always just below the surface, nearly consuming her. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ VIII. Current Recreational Interests ------------------------------------- Martial arts, marksmanship, vigorous (masochistic?) exercise. In short, anything that may help her one to day to eradicate the Romulan race from exsistance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ IX. Miscellaneous Information ------------------------------ While she is very well educated and always disciplined on the outside, Sefal is an emotional mess on the inside. She is, in effect, at war with herself, half of her wanting to help rebuild her society and to protect that new beginning, the other half wanting to make each and every Romulan pay for what was done to her people. At present, it is just a war of thoughts, in the future……… ------------------------------------------------------------------------ End BioFile
