USS Liberty

Sagan-class • NCC-92913 • Fourth Fleet

USS Liberty is a Sagan-class light explorer commanded by Captain Elara Galcyon. Assigned to Sirius Squadron, her primary duty is deep space exploration beyond the Federation’s Beta Quadrant frontier. Based out of the squadron’s headquarters, Gateway Station, Liberty ventures into former Romulan Star Empire territory within the Midgard Sector and beyond. There, even missions close to home are shrouded in mystery and challenge, with Starfleet only now able to enter these vast swathes of space mere light-years from the border. Exploring the remnants of the fallen Empire, Liberty faces new challenges every day as she charts, surveys, and analyses the region. More often than not, she operates independently from her squadron, though can conduct reconnaissance operations, provide scientific evaluation, and offer tactical support should the formation be deployed in its entirety.

Sirius Expeditionary Squadron

Sirius Expeditionary Squadron, also known as Sirius Squadron, is a squadron centered around the Odyssey-class USS Sirius under the command of Commodore Matt Rourke, based out of Gateway Station in the Midgard Sector on the Federation’s Beta Quadrant frontier. The squadron serves two missions: the secondary mission of supporting the sector-wide responsibilities of the Gateway Station, and its primary mission as a rapid deployment force beyond Federation borders.

In its expeditionary capacity, Sirius Squadron stands ready to deploy outside of Federation territory at short notice to respond to emerging situations across the galaxy. With multiple versatile and powerful ships at its disposal, the squadron is capable of operating independently and without support for extended periods, and is flexible enough to face a range of missions, including under volatile circumstances where objectives and conditions can quickly change.

Outside of such deployments, the squadron maintains readiness in case of need, and supports Gateway Station’s operations. From its HQ, its ships pursue Starfleet’s mission to maintain regional stability through diplomatic and humanitarian operations and pursue avenues of scientific research and exploration into the former territories of the Old Romulan Star Empire. Since the escalation of tensions with the Klingon Empire and their interest in the territory of the fallen Star Empire, Sirius Squadron has been a cornerstone of protecting both the Federation border, and Starfleet’s allies in the Romulan Republic.

USS Blackbird and USS Liberty

Most Starfleet officers considered their ship to be ‘home.’ Counsellors routinely urged against this, encouraging them to have a more well-rounded balance between work and life, a more healthy relationship with a lifestyle that could uproot them at any moment. The Blackbird was such a small [...]

USS Blackbird and USS Liberty

The Driftwood wasn’t favoured by Starfleet officers on Gateway Station, so its ebbs and flows of activity didn’t hew to shift patterns like many establishments on the station’s arcade. It meant the Rooks could walk in fresh off debriefing, in what the alpha shift would consider the middle of [...]

USS Blackbird and USS Liberty

The Liberty had left the Lliew Rift at the same time as the Blackbird, but its powerful engines had brought it to Gateway Station first. That meant that by the time the Blackbird arrived, the mighty explorer had nearly finished taking on supplies and getting debriefed. The resupply consumed all [...]

For the Rooks, the job was over. For the rest of the crew of the Blackbird, the mission wasn’t yet done. Rosewood ducked onto the bridge some hours after he’d thought the dust had settled on the Lliew Rift to find it still buzzing with low-level activity. Aryn was still up there at the [...]
