Saleke

Saleke is a Vulcan who was born on Formhauldt Nakrat, the son of Sakal and Telek. Saleke's siblings are T'alen who currently is married and resides on Vulcan and Skashe who was stationed on Edmun 2. Skashe was listed as KIA at that remote Alpha Quadrant base on stardate 2406.11.03.

Saleke and his siblings traveled with his mother and father while they were stationed on the Vulcan Scientific Research Ship Nahru and became intensely curious of the sciences himself, especially geology. He carries a number of mineral samples taken from the Nahru's stores, his most valuable being a brilliant blue Anelurian crystal which has many similarities to a dilithium crystal though not as efficient at storing and releasing energy.

Saleke graduated from the Vulcan Academy of Arts and Sciences with honors and enrolled in StarFleet Academy where he majored in the sciences and studied military tactics. Saleke has an extremely agile mind and quickly absorbed what the Academy offered and unexpectedly found his first commission aboard the USS Nimitz to be that of CSO on stardate 2406.06.20.

During his time on the Nimitz he was promoted to Lt.(jg) on stardate 2406.10.02 along with joining the command crew of the ship as third officer. A further surprise was also in the works as he was later promoted to Lt. Commander and transferred to the USS Mystique where he became the First Officer, unflappable the Vulcan has since been promoted to full Commander on stardate 2406.11.15 while commanding an expedition.

During his time on the Nimitz he participated in one battle, that with the Archimedes and the Alamo when the Nimitz destroyed the Defiant class vessel USS Alamo commanded by Henre LaBeau and his Klingon FO, Commander Galk. He was on the away team that boarded and took control of the USS Archimedes, an anti-matter trawler as interimn FO of the vessel. These actions were taken to acquire necessary anti-matter fuel for the 52nd Fleet.

During his time on the Mystique Saleke has participated in several missions including the liberation of Beta Kelindra 5 which he commanded and the scientific survey of Malcolm's Star.

Saleke has studied a form of ancient Vulcan martial arts during the time he has been on the Mystique called Ka'Fi'Ra and is becoming quite proficient. He is a natural leader, highly disciplined and logical.

Due to Captain Winters long term incapacitation Saleke was promoted to Captain and CO of the Mystique on stardate 2407.02.05.

Orders have been received to transfer his crew and command from the Mystique to the new Prometheus class starship USS Hades on stardate 2407.02.18. Scheduled launch of the Hades is on stardate 2407.02.30.
