» USS Valkyrie Attacked by Unknown Forces

Posted on Thu Feb 19th, 2026 @ 2:49pm by Captain Malcom Llwyedd in General News

Fleet News Network has confirmed that the USS Valkyrie was ambushed on its trip to Starbase 10. Reports indicate that a caretaker crew was returning the ship to its crew after a lengthy repair and refit of all systems. Rumors say that the caretaker crew was the crew of the infamous USS Firebird!

From what has been told to us, the Valkyrie was ambushed only days away from reaching Starbase 10 and suffered extensive damage and multiple casualties. The identity of the ship attacking the Valkyrie has not been confirmed, but sources assured us that it was likely an Orion…

» Federation Announces Joint Venture With Bajor

Posted on Wed Mar 8th, 2023 @ 9:42pm by Captain Malcom Llwyedd in General News

After many years of planning, Starfleet Command has announced the pre-construction phase for a new space station, to be located on the Gamma Quadrant side of the Bajoran wormhole. This new space station, designated Deep Space Eighteen, will increase security in the Alpha Quadrant, help protect New Bajor and serve as a hub for further exploration in the Gamma Quadrant.

"This new station represents a continuation of the core tenets that guide the United Federation of Planets. We are excited about the opportunities its construction will open up. We are especially thankful for the pledged contributions from the Bajoran people…

Mission: Mission 3: Under the Cover of Darkness
Posted on Thu Jun 4th, 2026 @ 7:30pm by Captain Malcom Llwyedd & Petty Officer 1st Class Fhiri & Commander Rhiana t'Aegis & Lieutenant Jackson Smith & Ensign Abigail Gordon & Petty Officer 3rd Class Thyra Kevensdotter & Lieutenant Soto Gantt & Lieutenant JG Jek'Lar Son of Koss & Lieutenant JG Hotaru Wymund & Chief Warrant Officer B'Rala Of House Seeth & Petty Officer 1st Class Baris Demir & Ensign Jillian Mox

[ON]

They had been underway for almost an hour now and were close enough to Pelinor 3 that Jackson at the helm had to start paying attention to debris getting in his way. Rhiana was sitting next to him in the Romulan shuttle's cockpit, monitoring communications, passive scans, the active cloaking device, and everything else. The cockpit was large enough for four to work comfortably in. A double-sliding door led to the entry compartment that housed a two-person transporter, a head, and a storage compartment, as well as another door, this one leading to the rest of the shuttle.

Mission: Mission 3: Under the Cover of Darkness
Posted on Thu Jun 4th, 2026 @ 7:26pm by Captain Malcom Llwyedd & Lieutenant Owen Woodhouse & Lieutenant Gale Deekros & Ensign Ozai Y'zyr & Master Chief Petty Officer Harris Zim & Lieutenant JG Peter "Jinx" Kooba

[ON]

Ozai ran. Flat out, full speed, to the shuttlebay to ensure the vessel was prepped, and he didn't care how loud his footfalls were. He slowed to a jog, then to a fast walk, as he realized it had already been checked over, though he did a quick walk-around to be certain it was ready. His team would be arriving in moments, and this business with the Romulans was time-sensitive. There could be survivors, and they were going in. He ran a mechanical hand knowingly over a meter-long smudged scratch on the exterior of the shuttle... cosmetic damage, thankfully.…

Mission: Mission 3: Under the Cover of Darkness

[ON]

Malcom looked around at the other three members of his away team. They, like him, were wearing a lighter version of body armor and were armed. Malcom wouldn't have admitted it to anyone, but he was excited about their mission. He was taking advantage of the fact that both Rhiana and Jackson were on their way to Pelinor 3 and couldn't dissuade him from beaming over to the disabled Romulan ship.

"Alright, everyone," Malcom said. They were assembled in the main transporter room. "Sensors indicated that the ship we are about to board is likely to have survivors. It…

[ON]

Malcom strode out of the conference room, his adrenaline beginning to spike. He strode over to where Commander Leed sat in the Captain's chair.

"Commander Leed, I see you have managed not to scratch the paint on my ship in the twenty minutes you've been in charge," he said with a smile. "I'm going to let you get some more experience in the chair. I'm taking an away team out. I need you to identify the closest disabled Romulan ship that is most likely to have survivors, and we'll beam aboard and look. The second away team will use…

Mission: Introductions
Posted on Thu Jun 4th, 2026 @ 11:29am by Lieutenant Ethan Mercer

[ON]

Ethan Mercer was awake before the alarm chime. Not because he set an early schedule, but because the warp field test from the previous day had left a calculation hanging in his head that wouldn’t settle.

He lay there for a while working through it properly this time, not in theory blocks or neat equations, but in the messy way systems actually fail. One correction feeding into another until the whole structure either holds or doesn’t. It still didn’t hold. That was the problem. He got up once it was clear he wasn’t going to resolve it in bed.…

EARTH'S MOON, FORTY FOUR YEARS AGO...

He had no idea how long he had been unconscious. He had staggered away from the Bolian and could tell by the warm wetness running down his coveralls he had either lost control of his bladder or was leaking a copious amount of red stuff. Thirty seconds later the light headedness confirmed he still had control of his urinary system.

He knew where to find a first aid kit, other than the central security station. If he went there the Bolian’s associate would shoot him on the spot and to hell with the consequences.…

SEVEN OR SO YEARS AGO…

“All right,” Devin snapped commandingly to the collection of teenagers and adolescents in the auditorium, “That was not terrible.” her smile took the sting out of the lackluster praise and she was greeted with a few smiles, “I can tell whom amongst us is practicing and whom are assuming they know the piece by heart.” She gently tapped the podium with her wand and stated, “We will run through just one more time today and then I shall release you into the wild. Positions! And…”

Devin strolled home after the rehearsal. They were wonderful children,…

FOURTEEN YEARS AGO...

Devin sat in the conference room with her attorney, Skye Nouri. Skye was a civilian but despite that there was an almost military bearing about her in how she wore her graying black hair in a severe low bun at the back of her neck and the crisp cut of her dark gray pantsuit. Nouri was going over some files on several PADDs and looked so unruffled Devin was certain she had taken tranquilizers. Devin herself attempted an outwardly calm appearance but she worried over how the preliminary hearing had gone.

Nouri did not seem to dislike…

[Personal Log]

My time aboard the Firebird, followed by our current assignment on the Valkyrie, continues to be challenging. The transition from the structured and predictable environment of the academy has proven to be an adjustment. At the academy four months ago, my days were filled with rigid schedules and classroom lectures, all designed to prepare us for our eventual roles in space travel. However, that familiar structure has given way to the unpredictable and often chaotic dynamics of life aboard a starship. Each day presents an array of trials, testing both my ability to work collaboratively with the crew…
