Lo'ren T'Vof spent her early years on [[Bajor]], during the [[Occupation of Bajor|Occupation]] in a mining camp in Rakantha Province. Her mother, Ari Sia, was a musician who was forced into the mines, her father, Dr. Tarven of [[Vulcan]], was an independent medical doctor who had been allowed on the planet to care of the Bajoran workers but not allowed to leave. Dr. Tarven continued to reside in Rakantha Province, following the death of his wife, where he remained until his death.

Lo'ren grew up typically Bajoran, her parents having elected not to enforce the strict emotional control typical of Vulcan but instructed her in logic and the ways of [[Vulcan]] as well as those of [[Bajor]] and the [[Prophets]]. Lo'ren has no blood siblings but considers other mining camp survivors as being within her extended family. She also has begun to consider many of her [[Starfleet]] companions in this same view.

Ari Sia passed away due to complications from age related illness. She was 87 years of age.

Dr. Tarven passed away during the time jump that cause the absence of the 52nd Fleet from Starfleet. He had developed a particularly virulent form of Bendii Syndrome and lived mere months. He was 198 years old.

Lo'ren is currently romantically involved with [[Jericho (Jack) Haynes]]. They are bonded in the traditional Vulcan manner.
