Fleet Update

The USS Spectre, having successfully brought the Borg ship and it's crew under control, has just been dealt a fleeting blow by a seemingly 'sentient' and hostile subspace river! Logic seems to have deserted this mission despite the presence of a 'logical' Vulcan at it's helm. Engineering however has taken losses, our cloak little more than a burnt out remnant of it's former self along with the regrettable loss of five of our crew. Doctor Gunnell, our Borg semantics specialist is adamant that the river is showing sign's of 'life' but.... How can this be? Stay tuned.

Current Mission Overview

The USS Spectre has been sent to the ocean world of Vedea IV located in the Falconer system. It's remit is to escort valuable algae used for the treatment of many illnesses and ailments. However, this algae has found other value in the form of a narcotic by-product prized by bandits in the area. Whilst in orbit of Vedea IV, the Captain and a few of his officers beam down for negotiations only to learn soon after that the Spectre has been attacked by an unknown vessel matching an ETHOS configuration. The ship is downed and brought to rest beneath Vedea IV's ocean, leaving the crew to battle hostile raiders and return the ship to orbit. Their ultimate goal, to pursue the strange ship and stop it from achieving whatever goal it has set itself.

Status Report

"Captain's log supplemental... Stardate 2413.09.08 - 17:00 hours"

It would seem that we have encountered a temporal anomaly of some kind, the rivers recent escalations in activity have now culminated in a time jump of some five years in total, we currently have no explanation as to why this has happened and have subsequently been ordered to standby by Starfleet. Doctor Gunnell's belief is that the Borg have managed to initiate an internal routine within the river, and that this is in some way responsible for our current situation. I have no reason to think that this may be otherwise.

Lieutenant H'Chir and his team are now working around the clock to clear the warp injector lockout sustained by EM pulse activity concurrent to the rivers temporal shunt. Most of our systems however, are now back online. Prior to the time jump, the Marines successfully recovered a Starfleet crewman from the Borg vessel, one Lieutenant Carlyle Deston who claims to have been abducted by the Borg themselves from yet another, skewed timeline. It would seem that the more we try to unravel the temporal jumps involved with our mission, the more convoluted and confusing things become.

Logic seems to have deserted us in this place...

Ship's History

The USS Spectre is what is known as a Black Ops vessel, this means that when a mission calls for covert operations, particularly beyond enemy lines or in enemy space, the Spectre is the ship that is called upon. She is unique in the fleet in that she is fitted with a phased cloak in order that she may carry out these most special of missions. The Spectre fights the "war without a fleet", in the Federation Civil War.

She is currently under the command of Captain T'Vhor who was promoted to Captain after her previous Captain Remae Ktell was involved in a landmine incident on the occupied planet Betazed which cruelly robbed him of his lower limbs. Commander Andrew Williams is her current First Officer.

Specific Mission Timeline

2407.01.17 - The USS Spectre mounts an away team mission on Betazed under the command of Captain Remae K'Tell to retrieve Debora Ansara, the niece of Federation renegade Admiral Rodrigo Doenitz. The Mission is a success but Captain Remae suffers an accident resulting in the loss of his lower limbs and is duly medically incapacitated from duty. First Officer T'Vhor assumes command of the Spectre.

2407.02.02 - As a direct response to information received during the Betazed retrieval mission, the Spectre is ordered into Romulan space under DOA (denial of awareness) clause, it's mission, to find and retrieve the usurped Federation President, Rondar Nell.

2407.04.15 - Reports to 52nd fleet command signify that Captain Talasario of the Doenitz loyal vessel USS Alacrity, intends to defect with a significant intelligence database along with four other vessels. The USS Spectre is ordered to the Arachnid Nebula to effect rendezvous and assessment of the situation.

More then One?

Yes, there is more then one USS Spectre buzzing around, 3 in the current universe, I wanted to get 1 back from the Alt Timeline Utopia Planitia the last time we played it, circa 2402-2404, of course, we brought it in the current timeline along with all the members of Utopia Planitia, gee... confusing much?

The other Spectres? At least one of them is a long, long way away in the Gamma Quadrant, if memory serves... the other? No idea, maybe I need to think something up? :)
