Displays across the quadrant are interrupted by feedback for a fifteen seconds, then a rippling white flag, with a fanged and horned skull over a blood red disc appeared.
“Hello Federation dogs and their puppets. I’m looking at you Cardassia and the so called Klingon Empire. We are the Ashen Hand and by now you know we are responsible for the love taps on Empok Nor. That’s just the start. The Federation is a fractured entity, no longer able to keep the peace within their borders and their citizens are disillusioned with the status-quo. The Ashen Hand is change my…

Posted on Mon Dec 23rd, 2024 @ 4:44pm by Commander Rhupert Tyree in General News
By Tricia Takenawa, Independent News Service.
Two days ago, Starfleet Command through the Federation Bureau of State issued a travel warning for Sector 500, specially the transit lanes around Antica space as unrest on the Federation member world grows.
In the past month, a separatist movement calling itself the Ashen Hand has taken responsibility for a number of fire bombing incidents on Antican worlds and today, a rash of fire bombings around the UFP offices on Selay. The Selay and Anticans have a long history of warfare between the species, only finding peace twenty five years ago when both were…

After the communal dinner was over and everyone had gone off to whatever they had planned for the evening, Kat was left to go back to what she referred to as her office. In truth, it was where she kept a computer, a table for working on clean projects, and room for whatever else she might need for minor repairs. Clean repairs. She used a section of the cargo bay for anything dirty or messy.
Kat had only one thing in mind: practice. She'd been doing so for a while, but now that they were on the Adelaide, it was…

As Kat expected, there was nothing along the side and back walls--she checked. So, she went back to the revolving panel Amy found and began to look at the wall while she waited for Amy to join her. "I won't activate this until you get here. Once we get to the other side, we'll look for a way out there."

Amy pressed almost every inch of the wall where she and Katya were imprisoned. There wasn't any give to the areas where she pressed. She made her way back to Katya. "Okay sadly there wasn't anything I could…

Kat went in search of Amy. She'd been doing a series of detailed scans of the ship and some things just didn't match up. So, she wanted to go investigating. And, since Amy was intel and as curious as she was, she went to see if the other woman wanted to help her search for hidden treasures.
Kat was able to find Any scrubbing down some walls in one of what would be used for quarters. She had one wall completely cleaned, which was a stark contrast to the wall that she hadn't done as of yet. She was also…

The outside of the Evania was surprising. It was better than what Amy thought it would be. This was her first time in being on a ship of this nature. She had researched it, looked at the amenities. The pictures just didn't do it any justice on the outside the same maybe true on the inside.
Amy truly hadn't anticipated Rhu to agree to accompany her, but hey she can adjust. She gave Rhu a sidelong glance before they entered the ship. A Risan ship one of many who traveled to starbases, to offer their services. "If you can't make…

Empok Nor, the station had its perks, and Luna had enjoyed having some time off, after her stint of being a bodyguard. The person was Fabiola Jentee a diplomat's daughter. The work was fun, and also it had its trials. There had been several attempts of her being kidnapped in order to persuade her father Ambassador Fenwell to not broker a deal between feuding countries. That though was over and Fabiola was married, and had her own team of bodyguards provided by her husband. Esteban Fernandez.
As Luna wandered around, She was concerned finding that there was evidence of a…

I’ve split my officer’s into two groups to pursue leads on the Pirates, and more directly their backer. To these ends, Commander Rahl and Lieutenant Meren are to approach the trader, probable smuggler Brexis when they arrive at DS9 in ten days. Their cover is up to them but I’ve made discretionary funds and transport available to them. We’ll see how that goes. Dayna is having a crises of conscious when it comes to working for Fed Intel. Ideals versus work that actually needs to be done. Maybe it was a mistake retaining a Scientist as…

Captain's Log, USS Valiant. Commander Rupert Tyree Commanding.
In pursuant to orders from Vice Admiral Koratt Th’keliss, under the Seal of the President of the Federation, we (USS Valiant and crew) have ben seconded to Federation Intelligence and ordered into Delaxian space (Spaniard, 2487 Beta Quadrant) to find and hunt down a pirate group working the shipping lanes there.
However, our mission is not to simply end the pirate threat, but rather hunt down people backing the pirates as it seems they have top notch ships and are well crewed. To that, both SI and FI haven't been able to…

The Valiant, in all her glory, sat in her berth at DS9. After the mess with the Lemures, Rianna was still smelling the residual odor left behind. No matter what she did, or used, the stench was still there. Could it be that it was all made up in her mind? Sure but why? Curtis had been busy as always so it left her to tinker with the engineering systems of the Valiant. Rianna wanted to make the Defiant class go just a tad faster than the normal specs allowed, so she had to do several new computations of variances…

“We’re ten hours outside of Valdivae and I can’t say I’m sorry to be gone from the place. The mission with Ambassador Telford was a cluster from he get-go and it’s done damage to the integrity of the crew.
First and foremost, of course, is the Death of the Ambassador at the hands of former Chief Operations Officer, Lieutenant Day Smith who is currently ensconced in Valiant’s brig pending turn over to Starfleet Security on DS9.
Joining her in the cells is Ensign Shen Gan’Agar who according to evidence provided by our cook, Ainsley Shaw, assisted Smith. Now, Ms. Shaw…
