Lt. Valeris1
Species : Vulcans
The first Vulcan who graduated at the top of her class in Starfleet Academy, Valeris was a protegee of Captain Spock and the officer he hoped would replace him aboard the USS Enterprise after his retirement. Valeris feared that the end of hostilities with the Klingon Empire which came after the Praxis disaster would mean the destruction of Starfleet, and she conspired to disrupt the peace process by assisting in the assassination of Chancellor Gorkon. She personally murdered the two assassins and helped provide evidence for Captain Kirk's show trial on the Klingon homeworld. Her actions were uncovered when Kirk escaped, and she was forced to reveal the conspiracy by a mind meld performed by Captain Spock.1
