Welcome aboard the USS Sovereign, a Sovereign-class starship under the command of Captain Leland J. Maddox, Starfleet. In the year 2401, the Sovereign embarks on a critical mission to explore and restore order within the mysterious region known as the Triangle.
Nestled between the territories of the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire, and the Romulan Republic, the Triangle has long been a haven for criminals and a springboard for clandestine operations against the Federation. Its unique location and the shielding effect of the Azure Nebula have allowed unlawful activities to flourish in the absence of any one power’s jurisdiction.
In recent years, a diminished Starfleet presence in the region has only exacerbated the situation. Now, the USS Sovereign has been dispatched with a clear mandate: to re-establish a semblance of law and order within the Triangle and neutralize threats that may jeopardize the delicate balance between the great powers.
The Sovereign is a rated 2 2 2 personal fiction.
The Ulysses Exploratory Cruiser Division is a critical component of Task Force Eighty-Six: Border Operations Fourth Fleet, operating under the command of Captain James C. MacLeod, Starfleet. Captain MacLeod commands the division from his flagship, the USS Ulysses (NCC-90565), a Sovereign-class Exploratory Cruiser.
The division’s remit is in and around the Triangle, an unclaimed region of space bordered by the United Federation of Planets, the Klingon Empire, and the Romulan Republic. This area, known for its complex local phenomena such as the Azure Nebula, poses significant challenges for monitoring and enforcement. The Triangle has historically been a hotbed for criminal and clandestine activities, exacerbated by a reduced Starfleet presence over the past fifteen years.
