Childhood:

T’vel was born to famed Vulcan Xenoarcheologists T’mal and Seena in ShiKahr, Vulcan. Little of her childhood was spent on Vulcan as she accompanied her parents from one research dig to another, from one end of the Alpha Quadrant to another. As such her exposure to Vulcan society was very limited and for short time periods only leaving her feeling as though she had little in common with the rest of her race.

Eventually her parents became concerned that their daughter was developing in ways that they had not anticipated and returned home to Vulcan when she was twenty-four years old. Despite being immersed back into Vulcan culture, T’vel often showed an emotional side that her parents strongly disapproved of.

Once on Vulcan T’vel married an equally young Vulcan male named Myis, at her parent’s insistence. Within a decade the marriage ended when Myis insisted that T’vel was an unsuitable wife, overly emotional and with little discipline. After her failure to complete the Vulcan Science Academy and achieve Kolinahr, her parents disowned her when she made the decision to join Starfleet.

Starfleet Academy:

Starfleet Academy, San Francisco, Earth

While in the Academy T’vel Majored in Tactics and Strategic Operations while achieving honors in Advanced Tactics and Strategies; As well as graduating in the top 2% of her class. T’vel is also a qualified small craft pilot, certified for everything from shuttles to Runabouts.

T’vel is an avid student of military history and her abilities and scores in tactical simulations are excellent. She has an excellent grasp of strategy and how to best make use of whatever resources or weapons she has available. While her battle plans are comprehensive, she is at her best in small unit tactics and planning a defensive battle or providing a secure location.

T’vel consistently scores at Marksman level with hand held weapons and has achieved her Mastery in Suss Mhan. T’vel has also mastered the Vulcan nerve-pinch, Tal-Shaya and is also an adept in Vulcan Neuropressure techniques.

First Assignment: USS Corinth NCC 64228.

USS Corinth NCC 64228

T’vel was initially assigned to the USS Corinth right out of the Academy as a Security Officer. Initially she was assigned as the Corinth’s armory officer before finally being assigned as head of the ships special security section which provided personal security for high profile VIP’s such as ambassadors and flag level officers.

She served aboard the Corinth for almost two years before it was heavily damaged during the battle to retake Andoria. During the battle the Corinth, heavily damaged and disabled, was boarded by enemy personal. T’vel was at the forefront of the defense of the ship and was instrumental in defeating the intruders.

Afterwards with the Corinth facing lengthy repairs in space dock and with a majority of the ships senior officers dead or injured, the surviving crew was transferred to other commands and T’vel received a transfer to the USS Dennison.

Second Assignment: USS Dennison NCC 91367.

USS Dennison NCC 91367

T’vel was transferred to the USS Dennison NCC 91367 on Stardate 2407.07.04 and assigned as a Security Officer.

Mission One: The Flames of Ragnarock

T’vel’s transfer to his new posting did not go smoothly. While on route her Runabout, the Rapier, came under attack by three Runabouts that were a part of Doenitz forces and was engaged in a running battle right up to her rendezvous with the USS Dennison. With Lt. Commander Eric McDermott in command they were able to destroy or disable two of the pursuing vessels and with the help of a shuttle sent by the Dennison he was able to drive off the third.

Within hours of her arrival yet another crises erupted when an officer, Ensign Chance Temerarious, who was a Doenitz agent attempted to commandeer the ship in order to turn it over to Doenitz forces. T’vel who had just been assigned quarters was attacked by one of the raiders and after disabling the man with a deft nerve pinch she took his weapons and arrived on the bridge just as Temerarious and his confederates had surrendered.
