Personality & Traits
| General Overview | Jorik embodies the Vulcan principles of logic, emotional restraint, and intellectual rigor. He approaches both medicine and interpersonal interaction with measured precision and unflinching honesty. Decisions are based strictly on evidence and probabilistic outcomes; he rarely raises his voice or displays outward frustration. He possesses a subtle, dry wit that emerges only in response to particularly illogical statements. While capable of deep professional respect and quiet concern for colleagues and patients, he channels such sentiments through rigorous application of duty rather than overt emotional expression. | |
| Strengths & Weaknesses | Exceptional diagnostic speed and accuracy, particularly in xenobiology and trauma surgery Extensive field experience in crisis triage and emergency neural reconstruction Pioneering research in non-invasive treatments for residual Borg neural scarring Calm under extreme pressure; able to maintain focus during red-alert conditions or boarding actions Thorough, meticulous record-keeping and protocol adherence Tendency toward excessive directness that can be perceived as blunt by non-Vulcan crewmembers Difficulty delegating routine tasks when personally invested in outcome optimization Subtle residual tension in cross-species social dynamics stemming from past personal relationships Limited tolerance for prolonged small talk or non-essential social rituals |

| Service Record | 2399 – Graduates Starfleet Medical (top 5%), commissioned as Lieutenant (j.g.). First posting: USS Triton, general medical officer. 2401–2405 – Promoted to full Lieutenant. Serves as assistant medical officer during heightened border tensions with the Romulan Free State. Gains extensive field experience treating trauma from skirmishes, radiation exposure, and boarding actions. 2408 – Reassigned to USS Triton again (now refit) as senior medical officer under the chief. 2413 (Frontier Day Crisis) – Jorik is aboard a medical frigate supporting fleet operations when the Borg assimilation signal activates. He spends the crisis coordinating emergency triage for assimilated officers and later assists in neural-pattern reconstruction therapy. The experience reinforces his belief in the dangers of unchecked emotion (and technology). 2414–2424 – Serves as chief medical officer on two successive Intrepid-class vessels. Earns promotion to Lieutenant in 2419 for pioneering a non-invasive treatment protocol for lingering Borg neural scarring. Maintains an impeccable service record, though colleagues note he rarely takes shore leave longer than 48 hours. |
