Human-Vulcan Commander Spock

One of the well-known and highly respected hybrids in Star Trek is Commander Spock. He is half Human and half Vulcan born in 2230 to his father Sarek and his mother Amanda Grayson. His father was a diplomat who worked as a scientist while his mother is a school teacher. He grew up with an older brother named Sybok.

Spock suffered Vulcan criticism as a child because he is half human. Even Sarek seemed different about his son only being half Vulcan. His bloodline caused other children to bully him. It was also during his childhood that he was betrothed to another Vulcan named T’Pring as part of their tradition for marrying. It was because of the bullying that even at an early age of seven Spock went on to the kahs-wan maturity trial in the wilderness even without the knowledge of his family. In an alternate reality he was killed as a child but in the real world, he survived the ordeal with the help of his pet and his older cousin Selek.

Being a well-known scientist, it was only logical for Sarek to impart his knowledge to Spock so that he may also become a scientist. Seeking to gain approval from the Vulcans in his teenage years, Spock decided to disobey his father’s wish and joined the Starfleet instead. It was the main reason why he and his father did not speak to each other for 18 years.

As a hybrid, Spock was physically more a Vulcan since he has green blood, superior strength, greater lifespan, and telepathic abilities. He tried every way possible in order to repress his human emotions which is more evident in different instances even during his tenure as a Starfleet officer during the 23rd century.
