USS Scylla NCC-87505 is a Manticore-class Federation starship currently assigned to Fourth Fleet under the command of Captain Teodor Borodin. Operating as part of Sirius Squadron, the Scylla provides the unit with tactical support. Smaller and faster than the formation’s primary tactical vessel, the USS Redemption, the Scylla acts as a rapid response ship for emerging combat situations and flies escort when the other major ships of the squadron may be entering dangerous areas. Her routine operations include recon and patrol duties, particularly along more contested regions of the former Romulan Neutral Zone.
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, serving as a rapid deployment force.
Sirius Squadron stands ready to deploy outside or on the fringes 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 can operate 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. While this profile often leads Sirius Squadron to respond to geopolitical crises, the unit’s versatility make it equally suited emergent scientific investigations.
The main unit, organised around the Sirius herself, is an element of several powerful ships each able to take the lead or act independently depending on the mission’s needs. Deployed together, they are a supremely well-rounded and capable unit. Two additional divisions provide specialist support. The first, headed by the USS Redemption, acts as an operations element to provide engineering, humanitarian, or diplomatic services. The second, headed by the USS Liberty, fulfils dedicated exploratory or scientific missions. The divisions may deploy independently or in support of one another, depending on operational needs.

USS Endeavour and USS Scylla
Endeavour was still measuring every micron of energy pumping into every replicator, so Captain Borodin hosted Valance aboard the Scylla. The last Endeavour had been a Manticore class, and she’d served aboard for four long years as XO. To walk the interior with its crisp metal bulkheads, shining [...]

‘Bird-of-prey, designation IKS Morinar, B’rel class,’ Logan read from his readouts at tactical in a cool but firm voice. ‘Holding position fifteen thousand kilometres away. Their shields are raised, weapons charged and they’ve locked onto us.’ Going to red alert had immediately [...]

‘Replicators in your rooms out, too?’ was the grunt with which Caede greeted Lindgren when she came out of her quarters to find him headed for the turbolift. ‘Rosara’s memo says it’s the whole section.’ She forced a shrug. It was an inconvenience, but a reasonable measure for preserving [...]

USS Endeavour and USS Scylla
Valance swore, breaking the quiet hum of her ready room. Over on the comfortable seating by the windows, Airex looked up from the PADDs he’d strewn across the coffee table, and she grimaced. ‘It goes from bad to worse,’ she explained with a sigh. ‘Thawn says that our power reserves and flow [...]
