Top 27 Coolest Vulcans (and Romulans) Ever

My list of the 27 coolest Vulcans of all time.

Explanations:
#27 - Coolest random death.
#26 - Craziest
#25 - Prime example of Vulcan duplicity
#24 - Just a cool guy
#23 - Makes the Vulcan language sound amazing
#22 - Wisecracking undercover Starfleet agent / tactical officer
#21 - He just looks cool.
#20 - Sports the best Vulcan beard of all time. As if that weren't enough, his attire, baldness, and accent are all amazing.
#19 - A pretty good villain. He doesn't get higher in this list for failing to utterly destroy the Kelvin before it could ram him. He should have been able to with all that Borg technology installed on the Narada
#18 - I thought she was really cool in 2. Quoting regulations and everything. In 3 and 4 I didn't like her as much, although she did help Spock with his Pon Farr problems. lol
#17 - She was cool enough in TOS when she was a crazy old Vulcan. But in ENT we find out that she's a cultist-gone-planetary leader and reformer of Vulcan society! How cool is that?
#16 - A merged Vulcan and Romulan persona in a Romulan body, training at Starfleet Academy, not knowing she's a Romulan. Awesome Vulcan.
#15 - Manipulative, crazy, and gets under your skin. Exactly what Romulans are supposed to do. A great villain for the TNG crew, seeing as she looks exactly like Tasha.
#14 - A vulcan scientist with an attitude, she went to Starfleet Academy with Worf and served on the Excalibur. Got kicked out of Starfleet when her Romulan heritage was found out, and so she joined the Romulans and captained her own ship. Badass as that is, I liked her better on Excalibur.
#13 - A great diplomat and ambassador. He's cool when he stands up to Starfleet and to Klingons for the Enterprise crew.
#12 - This picture doesn't do it justice, but just look at the random Vulcans mulling about the "HMS Bounty" at the beginning of 4. Amazing hats!! Smurfs got nothin on the Vulcans!!
#11 - A pre-Surak colony of Vulcans, technologically advanced but consumed by their passions. Even more so than Romulans, who are still calm and collected and mainly put their emotion into ruthlessness. These guys built a massive weapon into their planet's crust, so powerful it needed to use the energy of the entire core of the planet to fire. Craziest Vulcan society ever. They show what Vulcans could be if not for logic.
#9 - Though an incredibly primitive society, this Vulcanoid race has already developed an amazingly scientific method of thinking, and disregarded their gods. In this respect, they're ahead of 21st Century Earth! They show that the Vulcans have an innate tendency towards Logic, Surak's teachings notwithstanding. Also, it's just cool to see them seeing the Enterprise, being so primitive.
#8 - "I presume you've prepared new insults for me today?" "Affirmative." Classic scene! Lol. Mean as these children are, they give us a glimpse into the psychology of many Vulcans. How their path of logic causes them to feel superior to others who don't follow such a disciplined life, and hence other species.
#7 - The first Vulcan to make (official) contact with Humans! On top of that, he's flying an awesome-looking ship, and happens to be the ancestor of Sarek and Spock.
#6 - Served on a Starfleet ship with Humans at a time when relations between the two species weren't the best. Very cool Vulcan science officer.
#5 - He's a Vulcan Green Lantern!!! Nuff said! Coolest thing I ever heard of! The whole 'seeing dead people' thing I could do without, but thefact that a member of the Vulcan race is a Green Lantern is simply amazing.
#4 - Is responsible for making Vulcans what they are today (And, arguably, Romulans too; they would never have left if not for him). Very wise old guy, and very cool.
#3 - Maybe I should have put this one lower. He's just cool because he never got to actually exist. Sure, Data's a similar character, but we never got to know exactly what Xon would have been like. The mystery, above all, is why I put him so high.
#2 - Whoops, I forgot to include a number 2.
#1 - The quintessential Vulcan! Spock was intelligent, logical (more so than everyone else in his race), and in the end, he knew what he wanted. He chose Starfleet over the Vulcan Science Academy, going against everything his society expected of him. He's awesome aboard the Enterprise, and wherever else he is. He designed the Kobayashi Maru test! Best. Vulcan. Ever.

@kedozienfp That's mad racist! You should be on that council of Vulcans who granted Spock admission to the Vulcan Science Academy in the new movie! Being half vulcan counts as being a vulcan. For example, if I'm half chinese, I count as a chinese person. If I'm half Polish, I count as a polish person. lol

no vorik? i am disappointed

[Graemenx01]

no Dr Selar? (TNG)

[kedozienfp]

exactly,i completely agree..we are all the bigbang race!!!!

[zipsrule]

@Xaquri Sorry, I apologize. I don't remember why I said that.

[Xaquri]

@zipsrule Ouch. Uncalled for, 

[Xaquri]

@HighPraetar Well biologically, the definition of a species is that two members can reproduce to create fertile offspring. If Spock can reproduce, at all, with anyone, then humans and vulcans are scientifically part of the same species. Maybe they're different subspecies or something, lol. In the novels, I hear he had a kid.

Anyhoo, regardless, he's still a member of both. Whether they're diff species or just diff races.

[Xaquri]

@kedozienfp Well then nobody is a true member of any race, because on earth people intermingle. And somewhere in everyone's ancestry is someone of a different race! Spock is a vulcan, lol. He even refers to himself that way.

# 16 best.

[zipsrule]

@Xaquri 100% jerk.

[Startrekker6231]

T'pau should have been 3 and T'pol 2

[marangakis]

What??? Sarek at number 13??? I think number two would be more appropriate. And T'Pol and Sybok should have been ranked three and four, respectively: T'Pol, on looks alone, to say nothing of her contributions to Starfleet and the eventual formation of the Federation; Sybok, because he was half-brother to Spock and son of Sarek, and more importantly, he was so very different from them, a true firebrand.

I know that kicks Surak down to #5, possibly lower. Let him get the #1 spot, Spock #2, etc.
