ECF Directives Acceptance Pledge

I, TSalarek hereby accept and promise to abide by as well as uphold all the Directives of the Exploratory Crews of the Federation.

Born on Vulcan, raised on ch'Rihann, TSalarek somehow managed to absorb the tenets and disciplines of control while retaining her passion and fire. To the latter, she still slips on occasion. Her mother, Lady S'TRakah Kiance, a noble woman in her own right, was the daughter of Chancellor M'Rett of Romulus and Samantha Anne Kyle, a Rihannsu-born Human said to be the daughter of a decorated Starfleet Officer. Her own father, a diplomatic adjunct to Spock of Vulcan who was executed before her birth, was said to be the son of the Vulcan Noble Skonn and Lady T'Rokha, a Vulcan Princess. This history is what ultimately prompted her entry into Starfleet Academy.

She grew up in a zone of the Empire that was fraught with strife, it could even be classified as a "war zone," the conditions were that horrible. Mostly out of respect for family honor, though partly out of habit, she keeps an 11-inch long retractable-blade Rihannsu dagger that once belonged to her maternal great-grandfather in her quarters. While still in her teens, TSalarek was grudgingly granted transport to Vulcan where she would begin the task of learning mental control.

On Vulcan she was taught the disciplines she would need to control her emotions and her mind. She also studied diplomacy, ancient weaponry, and art. By 22 Teran standard years of age, had earned a medical doctorate from the Vulcan Science Academy as well as her instructor's ranking in Shi'Kar ancient weaponry. Before asking the Vulcan High Council for a recommendation to Starfleet Academy, she had also earned a Ph.D. in psychology with a specialty in the arts as therapy from the Betazed Institute.

Though Starfleet had some reservations about accepting a Romulan noble, a sponsorship from Ambassador Spock quickly put them at ease. She majored in interspecies relations/diplomacy with a minor in general warp theory, and graduated with high honors, near the top of her class.

She is one of the few survivors of WOLF 359. A civilian during the attack, she lost her mate and their 6 year-old son when their ship was destroyed. After much therapy and support from her friends in healing from WOLF 359, modern medicine made it possible to have a second child, a girl, by her now-deceased mate.

TSalarek is currently posted to security on the USS Vigilant, Commanded by Captain Tre'Maar.
