Neverwinter Nights announces its reopening in just a few days time. The newest of the Station’s night clubs was damaged recently by an attack by an ancient Red Dragon named Mixiflow Blazebringer who has opted to take up residency as DJ for at least the next few months.
Owner, Drowkisser Drillys told the Rattle that despite the damage and obvious lengths it takes to keep a dragon entertained, he’s delighted by the residency and encourages patrons to come back to the club and dress the part as treasure for the Dragon to horde.…

Posted on Tue Jul 8th, 2025 @ 6:27pm by Commander Rhupert Tyree in General News
By:Nees Jahn Kijn for the Federation News Service.
A fistfight broke out today between the Andorran and Tellurite delegates after news was brought to the Council that starships belonging to both members were involved in a small battle. Four Tellurite ships moved to block three Andorran ships (all supposed freighters at the beginning of the conflict) from approaching Star base twelve.
Admiral Serene Phillips, Commanding officer of StarBase twelve dispatched runabouts to break up the fight.
“I don’t know what they were thinking of,” Admiral Phillips stated. “The squabble started when we had a docking section go down for repair…

Displays across the quadrant are interrupted by feedback for a fifteen seconds, then a rippling white flag, with a fanged and horned skull over a blood red disc appeared.
“Hello Federation dogs and their puppets. I’m looking at you Cardassia and the so called Klingon Empire. We are the Ashen Hand and by now you know we are responsible for the love taps on Empok Nor. That’s just the start. The Federation is a fractured entity, no longer able to keep the peace within their borders and their citizens are disillusioned with the status-quo. The Ashen Hand is change my…

Breaking News. Terror Attacks on Empok Nor.
By Amelen Fong, Federation News Service.
Explosions ripped the quiet evening (local time) at the jointly managed Nor Class Space Station Empok Nor in the Trivas system. As of the fgiling of this report, station officials have declined to comment officially.
Un-Officially, the death toll stands at forty three with nearly a hundred more injured and another hundred listed as missing. The primary explosion occurred at the newly launched evening dance club called Neverwinter Nights. The popular venue was at its maximum capacity at the time of the explosion.
The night club wasn’t…
» Unrest in Antica. StarFleet issues navigational warning for Sector 500.
Posted on Mon Dec 23rd, 2024 @ 4:44pm by Commander Rhupert Tyree in General News
By Tricia Takenawa, Independent News Service.
Two days ago, Starfleet Command through the Federation Bureau of State issued a travel warning for Sector 500, specially the transit lanes around Antica space as unrest on the Federation member world grows.
In the past month, a separatist movement calling itself the Ashen Hand has taken responsibility for a number of fire bombing incidents on Antican worlds and today, a rash of fire bombings around the UFP offices on Selay. The Selay and Anticans have a long history of warfare between the species, only finding peace twenty five years ago when both were…

Aboard the Astraea Imprimatur, Rhu had commandeered on of the officer messes dining niches and was waiting the Romulan Colonel to join him. He’d went through the files provided him by FI and SFI through Captain (retired) Tesha Froyce, who was also Director of the Department of Operational Analysis, an obscure part of the UFP’s bureaucracy with ties to both Federation Intelligence and Star Fleet Intelligence, that mostly only went one way.
All at the personal directive of the President.
Rhu even had that part in actual writing locked up in Valiant’s Most Secure Storage safe in his quarters. Breaking all…

The low hum of electronics filled the air, but without the comforting vibration of engines or thrusters. The SS Adelaide was parked neatly on the colony’s small landing grid, tucked under the atmospheric shield like a well-behaved shuttle in time-out. Systems were dialled down to the essentials: minimal power, sensors ticking over, comms listening in case the universe sneezed.
Nyx sprawled at the helm anyway, like the ship might suddenly decide to take off without her.
The view out the forward ports was all landing pad and faint shimmer of the shield, no stars, no motion — just stillness. Too…

As soon as Kat and Amy arrived back at the compound with their lone survivor and parked the cart where it belonged, they carefully carried Kinna inside and found a comfortable place to lay her down. Kat didn't want to do anything more until Zuub could see to her. But she did run a quick scan to make sure the woman was still alive and not in need of emergency treatment.
"Do you want to call the doctor? I'm not sure where she is right now. I'll check in with Bryan Casteel and turn in my suit." She was looking…

Casteel waved away the smell of superheated metals and plastic as he leaned back from a filtering junction. He'd spent the last few hours cleaning the colonies filtering system with the help of the Alec and Katrina from the Adelaide. While he worked, Bran had continued to puzzle through how to fix the main problem.
The trouble was they still didn’t know what that problem was. Weld had checked in, telling him that Amalien was in the dispensary now, getting purified oxygen treatments. Brian still had a feeling in his gut though. That hadn’t helped any of the others and…

Nyx had been on her best behaviour for exactly forty-seven minutes. That had to be some kind of record.
Now she stood outside the XO’s office, trying not to fidget and failing spectacularly. The corridor was quiet enough that she could hear her heartbeat, or maybe it was the low thrum of the ship bleeding through the deck plating. Either way, it made the moment feel too loud.
The plaque beside the door read Commander Daynah Ral. The name alone carried a weight she could feel — precise, sharp, like it belonged to someone who measured words before speaking and…

Captain’s log, Rhupert Tyree commanding aboard the SS. Adelaide.
While following leads chasing down rumors that I believe are accurate on the Ashen Hand, Adelaide picked up an odd distress call from one Proctor Amalian Dreth of Avan’s Colony. This Colony is located on Quatral Prime, a world in the Cardassian side of the often contested border with the Federation. The Planet is infamous for having started out as a Cardassian mining world where they concentrated their efforts on harvesting Hydrogen from the atmosphere and converting it to deuterium for antimatter power sources.
In early 2373, the Maquis attacked the…

Operation Horoscope, to secure alternative transport under the Department of Operational Analysis is complete. The ship is now registered to my Nom de Guerre, Logan Wright as an independent owner.

I’ve split my officer’s into two groups to pursue leads on the Pirates, and more directly their backer. To these ends, Commander Rahl and Lieutenant Meren are to approach the trader, probable smuggler Brexis when they arrive at DS9 in ten days. Their cover is up to them but I’ve made discretionary funds and transport available to them. We’ll see how that goes. Dayna is having a crises of conscious when it comes to working for Fed Intel. Ideals versus work that actually needs to be done. Maybe it was a mistake retaining a Scientist as…

Captain's Log, USS Valiant. Commander Rupert Tyree Commanding.
In pursuant to orders from Vice Admiral Koratt Th’keliss, under the Seal of the President of the Federation, we (USS Valiant and crew) have ben seconded to Federation Intelligence and ordered into Delaxian space (Spaniard, 2487 Beta Quadrant) to find and hunt down a pirate group working the shipping lanes there.
However, our mission is not to simply end the pirate threat, but rather hunt down people backing the pirates as it seems they have top notch ships and are well crewed. To that, both SI and FI haven't been able to…

The Valiant, in all her glory, sat in her berth at DS9. After the mess with the Lemures, Rianna was still smelling the residual odor left behind. No matter what she did, or used, the stench was still there. Could it be that it was all made up in her mind? Sure but why? Curtis had been busy as always so it left her to tinker with the engineering systems of the Valiant. Rianna wanted to make the Defiant class go just a tad faster than the normal specs allowed, so she had to do several new computations of variances…
