Curriculum vitae
 
2264 Tuvok is born to Sunak and T'Meni on Vulcan.
2276  Tuvok experiences the transition period between childhood and adultness, undergoing his first Pon Farr, which will return every seven years from now on.
2289 Urged by his parents, Tuvok enters Starfleet Academy.
2293
Tuvok graduates from Starfleet Academy.
   SD 9521 29 year old Ensign Tuvok is transferred to the USS Excelsior as junior science officer. On his first mission he has to support Captain Sulu's attempt to free Sulu's fellow officers Captain Kirk and Dr. McCoy who have been unjustly imprisoned as the murders of the Klingon chancellor Gorkon, however, he refuses to violate Starfleet protocols and speaks against the views of his captain. Finally, this mission only increases his reservations against Starfleet and humans.
2298  Ensign Tuvok resigns from Starfleet because of his unsolvable problems with the multicultural surroundings and the unpredictable emotionality of most humans. He subsequently undergoes the Kohlinar on Vulcan.
2304  Tuvok interrupts his studies to take a mate, T'Pel, in the course of his Pon Farr. In the next decades, he will become the father of four children: three sons named Sek, Elieth and Varieth and one daughter named Asil.
During his time on Vulcan, Tuvok teaches Archery science at the Vulcan Institute for Defensive Arts for some years.
2349  Having become more wise and experienced with his fatherhood, Tuvok re-enters Starfleet and initially only has the rank of an ensign. He is transferred to the USS Wyoming.
2349-65 However, Tuvok leaves the Wymong shortly afterwards since he perfers theoretical studies over the practice in deep space. He accepts a post at Starfleet Academy, teaching there as an instructor for 16 years.
2353 After Tuvok's eleventh Pon Farr, his daughter Asil is born in the city of T'Paal.
2365 Being an experienced instructor and tactician, Tuvok is comissioned to work out an tactical analysis on Captain Janeway's first mission as commanding officer of a starship. His report to the investigative comission criticizes the execution of military trainings and inspections, altogether 43 violations of tactical regulations of Starfleet.
Since Tuvok wants to return to space, the Admirals Paris, Finnegan and Nechayew decide to transfer him to Janeway's ship, the USS Billings, as a tactical officer. Despite initial differences, a mutual close friendship develops in the next years.
2368 Together with Captain Janeway, Tuvok is on Vulcan when he obtains a Vulcan meditation lamp, an important accessory for every Vulcan, from a Vulcan master.
Late 2360s Tuvok is transferred to the Jupiter station. During his time on the outpost he writes letters with Captain Janeway, a close friend in the meantime.
2370 Tuvok undergoes the Pon Farr. He pretends to suffer from Tarkalean flue, but Kathryn Janeway discovers the truth.
2371  Lt. Tuvok becomes the tactical officer and security chief of the new USS Voyager, under the command of Captain Kathryn Janeway.
   January Before Tuvok begins active duty on Voyager, he infiltrates the Maquis as a undercover agent. He is appointed flight controller on a Maquis ship under the command of former Starfleet officer Chakotay. In the Badlands, this ship is hurled across the Galaxy to the Delta Quadrant, where the crew has to undergo extensive tests of the Caretaker.
   SD 48315 When the USS Voyager is brought to the Delta Quadrant as well and all crew members have been returned from the Caretaker array to their ships, Tuvok reveals his true identity and reassumes his old post as Janeway's security ship on Voyager.
2374
   Februar In a solmn ceremony in Voyager's mess hall, Tuvok is promoted to lieutenant commander by Captain Janeway for his extraordinary work in the last years.
2377
   SD 54238.3 Tuvok reaches the phase of Pon Farr again. Tom Paris learns about the reason of his "illness", but respects Tuvok's desire for privacy; officially Tuvok has the "Tarkalean flue". Captain Janeway knows what that means but remains silent as well. In order to hide Tuvok's exact condition from as many crew members as possible, Tom Paris treats him; together with meditiation and a treatment developed by the Doctor, a holographic recreation of Tuvok's wife T'Pel can indeed help him to come through his blood fever quickly and without greater complications.
   SD 54973.4 Tuvok can't keep the neurological illness he has already suffered from for some time a secret anymore, when Admiral Janeway, who has come back from the year 2403 to bring Voyager home safely and quickly, tells the Captain of the extreme deterioriation of Tuvok's mental condition if he doesn't return to the Alpha Quadrant in time. The illness, which causes a lapse in concentration in its early phases and later inevitably leads to mental aberration, can only be cured by the mind meld with a family member in the so-called fal-tor-voh ritual.
   Thanks to the efforts of Admiral Janeway, who dies in the course of the events, and the Captain, the crew of Voyager returns to Earth shortly afterwards so that Tuvok can undergo the ritual on his nearby home planet Vulcan.
