Physical Appearance:
Height: 5'2"

Physical Description:
Vee is slender framed with straight long black hair that often dangles past her pointed ears when off-duty and kept in a ponytail when on. She sometimes seems to hint at a smile on occasion despite the fact that it’s rare for Vulcan’s to do such a thing. She is a touch telepath so she spends a lot of time touching the walls, the people she meets, and has a way about her that gets people to turn their eyes despite not having all the necessary curves in her athletic body to really attract the men that already have an idea of what is ‘beautiful’, she does actually draw attention to her somewhat stick-like frame just in the way that she moves in her daily routine. For a Vulcan, most people see her as seductively charming in the mysterious ways that she tilts her head, or taps a shoulder in conversation. Her dark eyes seem to be all knowing – despite the fact that she can be quite unknowing and somewhat clumsy at times.

The Vulcan society claims that she is perfectly safe, however shall be denied the right of passage through various rituals. T’Vola, despite being exiled, comes across as everything one would expect from meeting a Vulcan. At first glance, she’s cold, decisive, direct, and every bit the good worker as any other Vulcan in Starfleet. Upon further contact with her, she reveals herself to be uncomfortably inquisitive to some, and irrationally pleasant to others. She has a sway in her stance and a gaze in her deep dark eyes that sometimes will lock onto a crew member and she will actually smile for a moment. For what reasons, nobody knows, some people might even call it creepy if not utterly provocative. She tends to communicate through touch on occasion and seems to be governed by a hidden compassion; people tend to figure this out once they spend enough time around her. She has a tenancy to always be around the crew member in the most need of emotional support despite being an Engineer, she somehow knows the right things to say to the right people, and at the right time. She also has a very explorative mind set and loves a new challenge.
