Lieutenant Tam Velorek was a Peacekeeper Military Tech officer and a specialist in Leviathan Pilots assigned to Moya while she was still under Peacekeeper control. Two cycles before John Crichton's arrival in the Uncharted Territories, Velorek was assigned to Captain Bialar Crais' project to impregnate a Leviathan with a gunship. His primary duty was to work with and eventually replace Moya's first uncooperative Pilot with a younger, more willing Pilot. He later oversaw this second Pilot's forced bonding with Moya, a complicated and difficult process. His expertise extended to knowing at least some of the Pilot's language.

  • Lieutenant Tam Velorek was a Peacekeeper Military Tech officer and a specialist in Leviathan Pilots assigned to Moya while she was still under Peacekeeper control. Two cycles before John Crichton's arrival in the Uncharted Territories, Velorek was assigned to Captain Bialar Crais' project to impregnate a Leviathan with a gunship. His primary duty was to work with and eventually replace Moya's first uncooperative Pilot with a younger, more willing Pilot. He later oversaw this second Pilot's forced bonding with Moya, a complicated and difficult process. His expertise extended to knowing at least some of the Pilot's language. Unlike many of his fellow Peacekeepers, Velorek was a compassionate man and treated the Pilots he works with respect and kindness. He used this nature to his advantage when he convinced Moya's second Pilot to come with him to the Leviathan, in spite of the fact that by agreeing, this Pilot condemned the first Pilot to death. In his time on Moya, Velorek resented working under Captain Crais, believing him to be a maniac and his project a danger to Moya. Refusing to let the Leviathan die, Velorek sabotaged it by installing a contraceptive shield and preventing Moya's pregnancy from developing. It was also during this time that he met Prowler pilot Aeryn Sun. He connected with her and they quickly became lovers. In Aeryn, he saw something special, a fact he was not shy about telling her along with his many ideas, ideas unusual for Peackeepers. He also gave her his opinion on Crais and hinted at the sabotage he had performed. They fell in love, prompting Velorek to offer Aeryn to leave with him. In spite of her feelings for him and due to her desire to return to Prowler duty as well as probably her fear of such a drastic change, Aeryn turned Velorek into Crais. Crais arrested Velorek for treason. Velorek, far from being angry or horrified at Aeryn's betrayal, was proud of Aeryn for doing something that distinguished her even as he was dragged away. Velorek was saved by Crais, who witnessed him praying to Elan, the Peacekeepers' deity. Crais shoved him into a capsule and set it on course to his homeworld of Prybella, where Velorek became the Voice of Elan. Cycles later, he met Aeryn Sun again. Velorek was killed by the Kkore forces, who destroyed Prybella.
