Posted on Wed Feb 2nd, 2022 @ 5:20am by Lieutenant Robyn Cole in General News

Hello. Most of you may know me on the Eminence as Doctor Robyn Cole, or as Trident in Independence Fleet. As many of you may or may not know, Captain Wells, also known as The Frogger, has been transferred to the USS Montana as her new CO under a new character. I thank him for the work he has done for this ship since he took command. Anyways, I have been recommended as the Eminence's new Commanding Officer as you all also may or may not know. I have also accepted this role. So, by the order of Admiral Charles…

The ship has been returned to her past to begin her new future!

After transiting the Blackhole the Eminence has been diverted back to 2400 by the intervention of a Starfleet Temporal Control ship from the distant future...

She is back to her final shake-down cruise, for some crewmembers there is a strange sense of deja vu as they complete this event for the second time

Then she will be officially handed over to Captain Wells and the crew and given her first assignment, a seemingly simple mission escorting a colony ship to its destination.

This is the first in…

Under our current mission, the ship has travelled in blackhole and has been hailed by a ship destroyed years earlier. Where is the ship at and what should the crew do?

Mission: Project: Frontier Day
Posted on Sun Oct 26th, 2025 @ 3:57am by Lieutenant JG Aubrie Fox

The comm terminal in Lieutenant JG Aubrie Fox’s quarters flickered to life, washing the small room in a soft blue light. Outside her viewport, the insides of Starbase 295 were busy as always , still wearing her half-open uniform jacket with her hair tied loosely back. She cradled a cup of replicated tea — jasmine, her mother’s favorite — as she initiated the connection home.

“Computer, open long-range subspace channel to San Diego, Earth. Fox residence.”

The computer chirped in acknowledgment. “Channel open.”

A few seconds later, the image resolved — the familiar, warm glow of the Fox family kitchen…

The rhythmic hum of the docking ring vibrated faintly through the soles of Lieutenant Junior Grade Aubrie Fox’s boots as she stepped out of the turbolift and into the heart of the Athan Prime Fleet Museum.

The air inside felt alive — heavy with energy, but reverent. Each corridor shimmered under soft amber lights that reflected off polished duranium walls and display plaques bearing the names of ships that had carried Starfleet’s legacy across centuries.

Exploring history.

The large banner at the entrance to the main gallery caught her attention:

“Preserving the Legacy of the Federation — Curated by Commodore…

ON:

[USS Eminence, personal quarters]



Nerex sat in his quarters cross legged on his bed with several PADDs laid out in front of him. The ship had downtime while it waited for new orders in the next few days, but he still had trouble socializing with others. As a Romulan, he knew that other species were likely to have certain feelings towards him. Potentially strong feelings. He had ventured into Starbase 295 and gone to a bar there, but he found himself unable to approach anyone there. He had instead ordered a drink, consumed it quietly, and then gone back…

ON:

[Starship History Museum, Athan System)

The bright glow of Athan Prime flooded the corridors of Spacedock One, which were a little busier than usual. Crewmembers of various different Starfleet Divisions were moving to and fro. Various projects were being worked on in preparation for Frontier Day 2401, which was still nearly a year away and most of the projects were far from being done. Mostly due in part to the fact that some parts and items needed were much more difficult to find, especially parts for non Federation vessels that hadn't been in commission for 150 years.

Alex Shepard watched the stars fly by outside the ready room window. Normally she'd be sound asleep, but tonight was the exception, for no real reason except that once or twice out of the year she became an insomniac for no real reason. When this did happen, she usually kept herself busy.

Right now, she was getting ahead on the usual reports to command. Word of mouth was that the crew would receive new orders after they got to port in a few days, but it was usually uncertain. If she wanted to, she could have sat on the bridge…

Today was… unforgettable.

The first ship I came across was the NX-01 Enterprise. Even after nearly three centuries, that ship still carries a kind of energy — like the spirit of exploration was forged right into her hull. I stood there for a while, just taking in the sleek, almost fragile design. No shields, no inertial dampeners like we have now… and yet they went out there. Into the unknown. I tried to imagine what it must’ve been like for those early crews — no subspace highways, no vast Federation safety net — just courage and curiosity.

From there, I…

I am pleased to document my recent promotion to the rank of Lieutenant Junior Grade, along with my new role as Chief Security and Tactical Officer aboard the USS Eminence. With the Frontier Day celebration approaching, the atmosphere on the ship is charged with excitement. This event not only commemorates the legacy of the Enterprise NX-01 but also marks a significant transition in my own career.

At this point, I have not yet had the opportunity to meet the Captain, which I hope will occur soon. Establishing a professional relationship with the command team is essential as I settle into…

Computer, begin Personal Log.

The burns on my arms have healed up nicely. Once I was released from Sickbay, the medical team gave me a salve that worked wonders while I was recovering. I've also been doing some light exercise and stretches to make sure I can do everything I was able to do before the mission.

I'm still getting used to Federation food. It's definitely varied. I have taken a liking to french fries. It also feels more like home now that I was able to get them to add Viinerine to the replicators. I don't eat it much,…

Personal log: I have received orders cutting my time in the Star Fleet Interspecies Medical Exchange program to Vulcan. I am to report to the USS Eminence as soon as possible to be the Chief Counselor. The move also came with a bump in grade to Lieutenant Commander. While I will miss my time on Vulcan, as well as my family, I am going back into space and will have the unique experience of being a counselor to an android . The USS Eminence is a small scout ship and I imagine the crew is very close knit. It will…

We have the chance to save a crew from certain destruction---certain death. But what if we are not supposed to do that? What if time records we came here and Starfleet knows it? If that is the case, I, as the Captain of this ship, will have to answer for this choice. If so, I can live it. I will not sit back and do…
