USS Scylla

Manticore-class • NCC-87505 • Sirius Expeditionary Squadron • Fourth Fleet

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

Sirius Expeditionary Squadron is a unit centered around the Odyssey-class USS Sirius under the command of Commodore Matt Rourke. 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.

The racetrack had been loud. Exuberant. Fast-flowing. And so had the alcohol. Lindgren normally liked to have breakfast in the Safe House or in her quarters; this morning, she opted for the Round Table. In her own rooms, she might have stayed under the covers and not come out. In public, her [...]

‘Again, you sure you don’t want me here for this?’ Valance adjusted her uniform collar as she double-checked her reflection in the ready room mirror, which also meant she didn’t have to look at Kharth. ‘I want to get a better read on Vhiemm before I decide if it’s right for you to [...]

‘What’re you doing here?’ Kharth looked suspicious as she opened the door to her quarters to see Logan standing there. That in itself wasn’t the problem, but he wore hard-wearing civilian clothing, the like of which she’d seen him in when they’d first met. He’d been undercover on the [...]

‘…it’s really nice to hear from you, but also pretty funny.’ Borodin paused, sat at his desk, mug of coffee halfway to his lips. ‘Funny?’ ‘I mean, sweet? The records from the Starfall expedition – did you… did you think I hadn’t read them front to back before even leaving [...]
