USS Triumph (Archive)

Fourth Fleet

‘The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.’
– Edmund Burke

Part of the first wave of Inquiry-class starships, the USS Triumph has been commanded by Lionel Jericho since her commissioning in 2390. Since then, the Triumph has taken part in Starfleet’s most significant actions of the decade, from Operation: Gatecrasher to border defence against Breen and renegade Cardassian forces, to the chaotic fall of the Romulan Star Empire. With one of the most decorated crews of the period, the Triumph now serves on the dangerous Beta Quadrant frontiers, confronting disparate Romulan factions, opportunistic pirate forces, and the machinations of the House of Mo’Kai.

With Fleet Captain Jericho leading a squadron of starships, the Triumph must oversee security in a region that needs a deft and diplomatic touch as often as tactical intervention. But when it comes to the latter, the Triumph’s reputation is clear: they are always ready.

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.

‘Captain?’ Doctor Namiya’s voice sounded like it was coming from a long way away, and she had to address him a second time before his eyes snapped away from the open morgue drawer. Jericho looked up. ‘What?’ She knew better than to openly show sympathy. ‘The Cornwallis is back. [...]
