For sale: a once in a lifetime chance to get your hands on a secondhand Norway-class light cruiser. You won’t get one any other way! This vessel is fully equipped and operational; carrying a nearly complete weapons and torpedo inventory. Onboard are four working warp capable shuttle craft.

This capable but seemingly unobtrusive vessel would suit any terrorist organisation wishing to standout and make a name for themselves; or possibly a political faction wanting to start a war through a ‘False Flag’ operation.

We have two former Starfleet officers available to teach the new crew how to operate and get the best out of this wonderful vessel.

The ships secret location will be forwarded to the highest bidder once payment has been confirmed by our third party ‘Broker’. Refunds will not be given once the transaction has commenced.

Sold as seen.

Do you tire of deciding what food to replicate for breakfast?

Does every stitch of clothing in your replicator’s buffer make you weary?

Do your choices feel particularly meaningless in your secular Federation society?

Is “self-betterment” too vague a mission statement to live your life on that distant, border colony?

You have questions. The Orion Syndicate has answers. For five easy payments of one hundred bars of gold pressed latinum each, you can be the proud new owner of a D'Arsay archive.

Don’t call it decayed. This venerable starship library is an antique, and the vitalization it can bring to your colony will be the answer to your secular prayers. With your very own D’Arsay archive, your purposeless husk of a body will be overcome with an entire dramatis personae of a vibrant society. You’ll have a choice of deities to worship as the archive slowly gentrifies your planet by hot-wiring your existing transporter and replicator technology. Worship the sun or worship the moon, and you’ll have a reason to get out of bed again. A D’Arsay archive is the only thing that can fill the hole in your heart.

From the Orion Syndicate: Your ticket to freedom.
