Appearance
Sovek’s appearance could grossly be described as unremarkable to the average observer, yet his physical attributes complement his ordered and meticulously catalogued existence.
Indeed, every aspect of his structure and every nuance of his grooming is executed with accuracy and a logical practicality that almost flows from him like an aura.
His mere presence in the room brings a measure of order to any chaos. And logic to any conundrum.
At 6’1’’ (185cm), he stands on the taller scale of vulcan stature, and his build seeks to complement this, with a lean and slender shape that gives the optical illusion of being even taller, only broken when he stands in the same frame as someone markedly taller
At first glance, Sovek’s face would reflect a calm lagoon surrounded by the ocean of emotions projected by other, more emotional beings. That being said, if one is familiar with Vulcans and their tells, one could easily spot the seeds of emotion in his expressions. Physically, his dark brown hair is uniformly groomed in a traditional Vulcan style, accentuated by a rugged and masculine jawline, which is, of course, clean, clean-shaven, as any sort of facial hair style would serve no logical purpose.
When on the move, Sovek appears to almost glide from A to B, with every step carefully thought out to ensure maximum efficiency. He typically is seen with a PADD in his hand or tucked neatly under his arm, ensuring not a moment of his day is wasted when he could be performing research.
In terms of uniform, Sovek maintains the expected standard as an example of conformity and efficiency. If there is a uniform code for it, you can guarantee Sovek has assimilated it into his appearance, precisely as described and no further. He can, at times, be outshone by other officers who choose to exceed the required standard. Sovek believes this would be an ‘inefficient waste of his time, as meeting the standard of uniform code would be sufficient to perform his duties.’

Psychological Profile
Starfleet Medical reports on Sovek are brief and often simply summarised as ‘Healthy green-blooded Vulcan. Certified for active service’
This either lends itself to unremarkable findings in his yearly physical, or more likely, that Sovek only complies with his yearly physical because it is a requirement.
Often hidden in the footnotes is evidence of chief medical officers becoming frustrated by a form of Vulcan reverse psychology and simply certifying his basic health.
Perhaps the most noteworthy entry is his Psychological report, which is no surprise, but detailed only in that the Psychologist was Vulcan. The entire document is 500 pages long, but its author was polite enough to provide a summary:
“In conclusion, Mister Sovek displays fanciful tendencies of intrigue towards illogical subjects of study. He is a profoundly intelligent individual, which makes this characteristic of his personality unusual and perhaps illogical.
However, this attribute is an aspect of Mister Sovek from which he draws a unique strength. Ordinarily, I would be concerned about the seemingly irrelevant nature of his interests and subjects of study. However, it would appear that Mister Sovek uses these … Unique hobbies … As a mechanism to refine his practice of investigation and scientific method. In short, Sovek uniquely devotes a portion of his attention to frivolous endeavours to improve his skills.
Interpersonally, Sovek is … Logical, and there are no indications of any of the behavioral markers that would suggest instability in his character.
It would be fascinating to study this individual further, particularly focusing on how his character traits may transfer to a role as a leader in the future.”
