Spock
Ambassador
Spock was a Starfleet science officer and ambassador who rose to fame as first officer of the U.S.S. Enterprise in the 23rd Century and Vulcan ambassador to Romulus in the 24th Century.
History[]
Spock was born in 2230, as son of renown Vulcan diplomat Sarek and his Human wife Amanda Grayson. In 2249 Spock decided against studying at the Vulcan Science Academy, pursuing a career in Starfleet instead.
By 2254 he was assigned to the U.S.S. Enterprise. Spock would go on to become the longest serving officer aboard the Enterprise - serving under the command of Captains Pike, Kirk and Decker until finally commanding the ship itself during the 2280s. He would go on to serve on the Enterprise-A until its decommission.
In 2368 Spock supported a movement on Romulus to reunite the Vulcan and Romulan people. D'Tan was among those he instructed. In 2387 Spock disappeared shortly after the Hobus supernova and the destruction of Romulus.

Notes[]
Leonard Nimoy at Cryptic Studios in 2009, recording lines for Star Trek Online.
- Spock's voice is provided by Leonard Nimoy, who also portrayed the character on screen.
- Spock's ultimate fate in the Kelvin Timeline following his disappearance in 2387 has not been acknowledged in-universe. Though there is little way for this knowledge to make its way to the original timeline's characters regardless, the real-life reason for this was Cryptic's Star Trek license originally only allowing content to be based on the movies prior to Star Trek (2009), thus preventing any references to the film's contents beyond the fate of Romulus. Cryptic has since been able to adapt content from the three Kelvin Timeline films, though Spock's true fate remains unelaborated.
- Spock was the first main character of The Original Series to appear in Star Trek Online. However, during the initial release of “Past Imperfect” only his voice was heard and he never appeared on screen. This was changed with the release of Season 8.5 on 30 January, 2014.
- Spock narrates the opening cinematic, as well as the level-up congratulations for Federation players. With the exception of the Romulan Republic, Delta and Gamma Quadrant sectors, he also provides the narrations for all Alpha and Beta Quadrant sector areas. A [Data Recorder] containing all sector space narrations can be obtained as a mission reward from “Diplomatic Orders”.
- After the death of Leonard Nimoy, the actor who portrayed Spock, memorial statues of Spock were erected on Vulcan and New Romulus. Black flags were also displayed on Earth Spacedock, First City, and New Romulus Command during a week of mourning from March 5 through 12, 2015.
