• Task Force 47

“I’m inspired by how dragonflies are both tough and fragile; fierce and mild.” ― Cindy Crosby,

The USS Dragonfly, affectionately dubbed the ‘Fly,’ embodied the spirit of change, transformation, and adaptability. Launched in the year 2390, the Fly launched on a journey to the outermost reaches of Federation space, symbolizing Starfleet’s golden age era of exploration and diplomacy.

However, 2401 was the year when everything changed. The Federation faced a significant challenge with a devastating Changeling-Borg onslaught. The assault caused widespread destruction, leading to the majority of the Federation undergoing recovery, facing casualties, or sudden reassignments. Recognizing the urgent need for a swift recovery from this attack, Starfleet made the necessary decision to rebuild and revitalize a Federation left in ruins.

Assigned to Task Force 47 within the Fourth Fleet, the Dragonfly finds itself revitalized, a symbol of the renewed spirit taking over the Federation. Under the leadership of the newly promoted Elena Mitchell, the Dragonfly embraced its original mission directives with renewed passion, embodying the spirit of change and rebirth.
