Part of Bravo Fleet: The Devil to Pay

Starbase Bravo

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

Intruder Alert!

Mission Description

As one of the largest stations in the Fourth Fleet, Starbase Bravo sees a lot of traffic every day… but that doesn’t mean things get missed. One of the things that certainly doesn’t get missed is when the prison transport, Tharazad, heading for the nearby Tellun facility goes dark in December 2401.

Unfortunately, investigations have revealed that comms from that area were looped and that the transport was attacked by the Orion Syndicate, presumably to recover a prominent member of their organization who was being transported aboard.

While the Fourth Fleet is investigating the circumstances of the attack and how the Orion Syndicate managed to fool Starfleet communications protocols, the delay between the attack and the first of the Fourth Fleet ships arriving on the scene means that several prisoners who were also aboard the transport may have made it to Starbase Bravo. All crew members are advised to be vigilant and report anything suspicious to the security department.

 


 

In-Play

This is your chance to get as involved as you like with a prisoner hunt. Several escaped prisoners are now loose on Starbase Bravo, and it’s up to your character to spot them!

They can be anyone, anywhere… doing anything. The quiet guy in the bar asking for passage out of the system, the two suspicious characters lurking outside the shuttle bays… right down to a disagreement on the promenade resulting in a rampage through several decks that your character just happens to get in the middle of! The criminal your character encounters is also up to you… are they merely misunderstood and somehow got lumped in with the more dangerous prisoners, or do you have someone really nasty on your hands? The choice is yours!

It can be wrapped up in one post, or you can stretch it out over the entire campaign. Or, grab a writing buddy and weave the idea through your current ongoing story on the base.

Whichever way you decide to go, the aim is to have fun with it! If you want someone to bounce an idea off, feel free to contact any of the academy staff for a chat!

Making New Friends

Starbase Bravo: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

Jade left the courtroom and exhaled deeply. She was exhausted. Of course, she was not physically tired but mentally tired. The hearing had went longer than she had expected it to and she was glad to be done for the day. She turned to see Lt Ryke exiting behind her. Ryke slowed his steps as [...]

Nebulark hitches a ride

Starbase Bravo: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

It was vast. Almost cathedral-like, if Luke had to describe it to his parents. The Docking Bay his shuttle had landed in was comprised with high-arched ceilings that stretched into a seamless combination of metal and transparent panels complemented by a huge opening into space that was secured by a [...]

Nebulark

Starbase Bravo: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

He had asked Starfleet for a little more time with his family. They had granted it at a price. Luke needed to organize his transport to Starbase Bravo himself. Surely, Starfleet had offered their help and the Cadet had thankfully accepted it. A young Ensign had booked him a seat on a civilian [...]

The lone Wolfe

Starbase Bravo: Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

It was early in the morning, not even 0500, the young lieutenant stood peering out the window of 10 forward looking at what was to be his new posting as Starbase Bravo came into view. Lt Wolfe had been transferred here from his previous posting on the Olympic class vessel the USS Olympic where he [...]
