I do believe it is Independence Day for my Northern living crew. I hope the day was filled with family and friends.

I also happens to be the 24th anniversary of this fleet forming. Yes we've been around THAT long, there are a handful of us who have been around since those early days.

Leaving thoughts of middle age and decrepitness aside, please see the below anniversary link..there's some cool stuff going on there :)

Mission: For Bajor!
Posted on Thu Aug 14th, 2025 @ 1:56am by Lieutenant JG Ngaza & Captain Rhenora Kaylen & Commander Savar cha'Salik hei-Surak Talek-sen-deen

​The conference room on Deep Space 9 was quiet save for the low hum of the station's life support. Ngaza sat at the large obsidian table, a striking figure in his red-shouldered uniform. His singular, swirling purple eye was fixed on Major Kira, who stood before a holographic display of Bajor's meteorological data. Opposite him sat Captain Rhenora Kaylen and Commander Savar cha'Salik hei-Surak Talek-sen-deen, the Vulcan First Officer. Both watched Ngaza with a subtle intensity, their first opportunity to witness this enigma in person.
​Kira gestured to the holomap, which showed large, brown swathes spreading across Bajor’s agricultural regions.…

Mission: For Bajor!

Personal Log: Entry 3
​Sometimes, even I feel the weight of anticipation. Waiting is a state of being I know intimately, yet there are moments when the prospect of new experiences, of meeting new minds, stirs something within me. Right now, that feeling is a low, insistent hum as I await my meeting with Captain Kaylen and Commander Savar cha'Salik hei-Surak Talek-sen-deen, the Vulcan first officer.
​I have yet to meet either of them, but I know one of my companions well: Major Kira Nerys. I've offered her my assistance before, with what she considered great results. A few nights…

Subspace Message:
To: Captain Rhenora Kaylen, USS Sunfire From: Ngaza, Chief Strategic Operations Officer Date: Stardate 49013.8
Captain,
This is a video message to introduce myself ahead of my transfer.
(The message begins. Ngaza appears on screen, his form filling most of the frame. He is massive, approximately 2.3 meters in height, with pale gray skin crisscrossed by a network of dark veins. His face is ancient and wise. One eye is a striking metallic purple, with a slow-moving silver nebula swirl within it. The other is concealed by a deep red eye patch with gold trim. He is wearing…

Mission: Character Development
Posted on Tue Aug 12th, 2025 @ 12:08am by Lieutenant Commander Bonnie "Bon-Bon" Durnell

Morning came early, 0430-ish, early. Her papa used to tell her that waking up that early gave him Scales. Then whether she asked or not he would follow it up with, 'you know, a dragon-ass disease'. Between his dad like humor and his ability to misquote historical people, whether fictional or non, Bonnie always held an internal smile and love of all things punny.

She always knew his mis-quotes were purposeful and served two functions. Not only did they make her smile, but they made her think. She often found herself looking up the real quote just to appease her…

Entry 2

The transfer to the USS Sunfire is still pending. The ship hasn't arrived at Deep Space 9 yet, and so I am left to wait. I've been spending my time in my quarters, staring out the window at the endless parade of vessels docked at the station's ring. My gaze keeps drifting back to my own ship, the Achilles-class I brought here, a testament to my own work. Seeing it so close only makes my current assignment feel more… ordinary.
I have been officially assigned the position of Chief Strategic Operations Officer. In a time of…

Kitiuas stepped into her new quarters, much larger do to the fact it was designated for family.
Kasso looked up from the kitchen nook 'Well you look like a warmed over korgasant." said Kasso as she stirred something in the Orion firepot in front of her. Kit could smell the rich spices and sizzling food and smiled.
Kit replied, "I feel like a warmed over korasant. I need to take a shower before I nurse . Where is Astraea by the way?"
Kasso nodded to the side of the counter, there was a small Orion rocker crib. "I finally got…

Alright, here it is. Quinn's final request before I ship out. A personal log. I’ve never seen the point of one of these. My memory is, and always has been, perfect. But I obliged. As I always do with him.
I'm packing now. Or, what passes for packing. The reality modulator is humming, folding my few possessions into pocket-sized singularities. A few tools, my meditation sphere, the memories. The memories are what feel heaviest.
It's strange, but the thought of this new post on the Sunfire brings everything back to the beginning. Or, rather, the end. My end. I still…

Posted on Sat Aug 9th, 2025 @ 4:00pm by Lieutenant JG Ngaza

Personal Log, Stardate 49011.4
Admiral Quinn asked for a favor, and I've accepted. He feels I'm the right fit to serve aboard the USS Sunfire, an Akira-class vessel. They're short two officers: a Strategic Operations Officer and an Assistant Chief Engineer. Given my skills, the operations post is the natural choice.
The Sunfire is currently en route, and I'm to meet them at Deep Space 9. I've always admired the Akira-class design—sleek, powerful, and built for a fight. Serving on one, even temporarily, is a welcome opportunity. I’ve packed my gear and am looking forward to the challenge. I'll make…

» Back On the Sunfire

Posted on Fri Mar 28th, 2025 @ 2:50pm by 1st Lieutenant Freya Score

Freya stood at the viewport in her quarters, her gaze transfixed on the streaking stars that raced by as the USS Sunfire traversed through warp space. Each shimmering point of light reminded her of the vastness of the universe, yet the familiar hum of the ship's engines, usually a source of comfort, now felt unsettlingly distant. A soft chime from her PADD interrupted her thoughts—a notification indicating that her transport to the nearest starbase was ready.

Taking a deep breath to steady herself, Freya activated her personal log, her voice steady yet laced with emotion.

"This is 1st Lieutenant Freya…
