Vallien

Vallien was a 24th century Vulcan Starfleet officer. He hailed from a polar region of the planet Vulcan, inhabited by an ethnic sub-group of Vulcans known for blond hair and fair skin (notably different physical features compared to Vulcan's dark-haired ethnic majority).

Vallien was a student of Sirenahr, a school of thought arising from Surak's teachings which sought an emotional "balance", compared to Kolinahr, the purging of all emotions espoused by many Vulcans as the height of virtue in their culture. As a result of his Sirenahr beliefs, he seemed emotionally "warm" and sociable. While he occasionally seemed to convey emotions, he claimed to never actually feel them. By contrast, he rarely raised an eyebrow as other Vulcans were known to do, in response to surprising situations or wildly emotional statements from others. He was learned in the practice of mind melds, though claimed not to be a master, and would only engage in the practice under extreme circumstances.

Vallien was assigned to the UFS Arcadia's Tactical Department in late 2378. He often manned the bridge tactical station. His exact age was unrevealed, but he was considered young at the time, for a Vulcan. He continued serving in this capacity until as late as 2386. (Star Trek: Arcadia)

Background

 * On Star Trek: Arcadia, images of real-life actors simulated characters. In this sense actor Orlando Bloom (suspiciously resembling Legolas from Lord of the Rings) represented Vallien.
