Changes: Skon

Revision as of 23:15, 18 January 2012

S'chn T'gai Skon was a male Vulcan in the 22nd century. He was the son of Solkar, the father of Sarek and the paternal grandfather of Spock and Sybok. Both his father and son served as the Vulcan Ambassador to United Earth.

In the mid 2150s, he was a mathematician who was recruited by the Cochrane Institute of Alpha Centauri to participate in the testing of a prototype transporter. (DS9 - The Lives of Dax short story: "Dead Man's Hand")

During the Earth-Romulan War, he and Tobin Dax were part of Earth's Warp Seven Program in order to give Earth an advantage against the Romulan Star Empire. (ENT novel: Beneath the Raptor's Wing)

He was also the first Vulcan to translate The Teachings of Surak from the Vulcan language to English. (ENT episode: "Two Days and Two Nights")

For most of his life Skon was married to T'Rama. (ENT short story: "A Girl for Every Star") The couple eventually had a son, Sarek, who was born in 2165. (TOS movie: Star Trek III: The Search for Spock) Sarek was the elder child and the couple had another son called Silek. Silek became somewhat of a rebel and had chosen to defy tradition by not entering the diplomatic service leading to him being declared a Ktorr Skann; thus the formal ties between father and son were severed with Silek being forbidden to return home. It was only after Skon's death that Silek was accepted back to the household by his mother. (TOS novel: Demons)
