continues to have some difficulty in dealing with social situations.
This has given her a reputation for rudeness. Pookie

and adopted by Vulcan parents. At the start of the game, he also tried to live his life as a vulcan, but had rejected that way of life by the time of "Rites of Passage". To date his efforts to uncover the reasons for his abandonment
