He is a created in 2372 by a transporter accident that merges USS Voyager crew members Tuvok and Neelix. Genetically a combination of Vulcan and Talaxian, Tuvix possesses both Tuvok's and Neelix's memories and knowledge, but has a single consciousness and an identity distinct from his progenitors. He names himself "Tuvix" after rejecting "Neevok".
Originally, Tuvix does not regard himself as an individual being, and is willing to be returned to being two people. However, this changes after he spends two weeks on Voyager acclimating himself to the crew, and them to him. When the ship's doctor discovers a means of separating Tuvix into Tuvok and Neelix, Tuvix objects on the grounds that doing so would mean killing a distinct individual. Nevertheless, Captain Kathryn Janeway orders Tuvix to undergo the separation on the grounds that doing so would restore two other individuals to life. When the Doctor refuses to perform the procedure, Janeway does it herself, successfully bringing back Neelix and Tuvok.
