TUVOK Family & Life Before Voyager

 [#58 Blood Fever] |
Tuvok has an artificial implant in his right elbow after an injury in a combat simulation - this information is explained in [#58 Blood Fever]. Pictured left and right: Tuvok wearing the uniform used on the away mission to the planet inhabited by the Sakari. The field uniform was designed for more strenuous activities than normal, such as potholing such as was required in that circumstance [#58 Blood Fever]. |  [#58 Blood Fever] |
Tuvok is 182 centimetres tall, and in weight "maybe 75 kilograms" [#150 Repression].
Tuvok, as a Vulcan, is a vegetarian. Presumably he ate Noss' sautéed spiders [#108 Gravity] as a survival measure. 
IS TUVOK A VEGETARIAN?
Tuvok and Ensign Vorik seem to be the only Vulcan members of Voyager's crew. However, in [#171 and #172 Endgame], when Janeway asks about another Vulcan being available to participate in the fal-tor-voh mind-meld to cure Tuvok of his deteriorating neurological condition, Tuvok replies: "None of them is compatible." That implies there are more than two Vulcans aboard. In [#150 Repression] a female Vulcan or (highly unlikely) Romulan is seen as one of the Maquis, but something is wrong because she is also seen in [#1 and #2 Caretaker] assisting the human doctor in sickbay i.e. she cannot be a Maquis. She is not named in either instance.
| Tuvok wore a very smart outfit to the first night of Prixin around stardate 51449.2 [#80 Mortal Coil]. Paris advised him to bang a spoon against a glass to gain everyone's attention.
Tuvok: "Welcome to the first night of Prixin, the Talaxian observance of familial allegiance. This year Mr Neelix has requested that I commence the celebration with the traditional salutation: 'We do not stand alone. We are in the arms of family: father, mother, sister, brother, father's father, father's mother, father's brother, mother's brother, fa-.... Suffice it to say the list is extensive. We gather this day to extol the warmth and joy of those unshakable bonds. Without them we could not call ourselves complete. On this day we are thankful to be together. We do not stand alone.'" |
