*Ambassador Sarek of Vulcan was one of the most respected ambassadors in the Federation. He was active in the Babel conference, as well as the early Camp Khitomer negotiations between the Federation and the Klingon Empire. Sarek contracted Bendii's syndrome, a rare Vulcan disease which leaves the victim unable to control his overwhelming emotions - a condition devastating to a Vulcan. Sarek died shortly after the news that his son, Ambassador Spock, had gone on an unauthorized mission to Romulus. Sarek was married to at least two human women, Amanda (Spock's mother) and Perrin. *Source: Back of card
