The USS Olympic (NCC-38000) was the first Olympic-class cruiser launched in 2364. She is currently assigned to the Fourth Fleet’s Task Force 21.
Command
At the helm is a captain with an impeccable record, a long frontline record, and one reassignment involving a pregnancy and a desire for a job where explosions happen slightly less often. The XO? Let’s just say her last command ended with a civilian vessel and a tactical misjudgment, and leave it at that. Both now run a tight, efficient ship – mostly because they already now what happens if you don’t.
Education
The Olympic boasts a top-tier teaching facility, and the sort of assignment where medical students learn fast – because real emergencies don’t wait until you’ve checked your notes. Cadets and junior officers train alongside veterans who’ve seen everything from plasma burns to sentient viruses that file complaints with the ethics boards, forging the connections that shape a medical career: a trusted mentor, a lifelong friend, and – inevitably – their first nemesis.
Research
When the Olympic isn’t saving lives or teaching the next generation of medics, it’s pushing the boundaries of medicine and science – sometimes right up to the ‘do not cross’-tape. Interdisciplinary / Interspecies teams tackle xenopathology, adaptive therapeutics and emergency medicine protocols.
It’s also a conference hub, hosting events that bring together the galaxy’s brightest minds to share discoveries, argue over methodology, and quietly steal each other’s ideas.
The Olympic Medical Journal, headquartered aboard, publishes cutting-edge research for the medical community. Once famous for a scandal involving bad data, bad judgement and worse editorial peer review, the OMJ is now under uncompromising new leadership, and clawing its way back to relevance.

“Captain Nassar is in the surgical suite. She woke up before you. And she’s in good hands, just, well, a little occupied right now,” the doctor tried. She was unsure how much she could disclose. Then again, it wasn’t like Nassar’s pregnancy was a secret.
Or, if it was, it wasn’t a [...]
“Then you’d better not wake up.”
Those were the last words Anand had heard in hours, or days, or weeks? A haze of wordless whispers had since filled his head, unintelligible commands that stilled his limbs every time he thought about pulling himself out of the abyss.
Very gradually, over a [...]
Avery Quence – Doctor Avery Quence, thank you very much – had been insulted in twelve different breaks since breakfast.
Only three of them were intentional.
All of them irked him.
Though, if feeling insulted and being slighted miffed about it were his only problem, he’d happily take [...]
He blinked once, twice, three times to make certain that his eyes really were open, but it wasn’t until Anand reached up and rubbed his face that his senses truly started to come back online. The space around him was totally dark, and the softly shifting bedroll beneath him told him that he was [...]
