A senior minister of the Vulcan High Command who grows uneasy at Administrator V'Las's persecution of the Syrrannites and planned attack on Andoria, and finally acts to stop him.
Kuvak is a member of the Vulcan High Command in the three-part story The Forge, Awakening and Kir'Shara, set in 2154. He serves as one of the ministers advising Administrator V'Las.
After the bombing of the United Earth Embassy, Kuvak at first accepts V'Las's claim that the Syrrannites are responsible. He becomes increasingly troubled as V'Las orders the bombardment of their sanctuary and then a surprise assault on the Andorian fleet.
When Jonathan Archer, T'Pol and T'Pau arrive with the Kir'Shara, V'Las tries to have it destroyed. Kuvak stuns him and orders the fleet to stand down, and afterwards helps to oversee the dissolution of the High Command.
