"had to be made. "we have dropped out of warp. There seems to have been a ... power loss in the warp core." "We have What!?" Kestra spouted as she jumped up out of her chair. "We have to have warp back now! We will be sitting ducks without warp and the nimitz would have to be in battle longer than she may be able to handle." Kestra"

"The probe report was uneventful; it seemed they had found nothing of consequence, which the Bajoran found troublesome because his task was uncompleted, despite the recent orders of the Admiral. "On screen," came the reply as all eyes turned to the main viewscreen. The screen looked blank at first and then shimmered slightly. The"

USS Wraith ⚔
A sister ship of the USS Spectre and the 2nd Spectre-class ship to be launched. The USS Wraith participated in the Battle for Sector 001 at the end of the Federation Civil War.

"Lizzy was about to exit the Sickbay to find the Captain when the door opened and the Captain entered caring a member of the crew she did not know of yet, but looked awful just the same.

Appeared through an unstable wormhole from an alternate universe in 2405. Commanded by Captain Eva Straton from a universe just after the Dominion Wars. During the Civil War, attacked and seized the Gamma Sigma System and Starbase 234, successfully repelling an invasion force at Beta Aquari III.
"The A-CSO turned to him. "Lt.," he started. "I want you to see if you can get anything out of those scans of the cloaking system. Pin down where it came from." "Aye sir. I'll get right on it!" With that Shane headed right for his office and the lab facilities."

USS Champlain ⚔
Destroyed during the Battle for the Mars Defense Perimeter in 2407, along with the USS Nimitz. The loss of life was horrendous, but the 52nd Fleet was ultimately victorious.
"Onion-skin eyelids prickled against the raw, stinging orbs that pressed, swollen, against his brain and seemed to cry out for the dark womb of sleep, not this pale, saccharine imitation, barely distinguishable from no sleep at all. He peeled them open reluctantly and could not muster even the indignation to wonder why he had been cursed with another day to live."

USS Rosenante ⚔
A controversial privateer ship designed under the Chimera Directive for the Doenitz regime. Represents one of the darkest chapters of the civil war period, involving ships specifically designed to operate outside normal Starfleet regulations.
"Phil was, well not himself, to put it mildly. He was trying to sleep but sound sleep kept eluding him. He had served over thirty years and seen a lot of death over that time. Phil thought himself immune to the loss of life - but in fact he never had learned to grieve. Phil Sheridan never understood how beings could be that cruel to each other."

Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards ⚔
One of Starfleet's premier starship construction and repair facilities, located in orbit of Mars. This major shipyard has been responsible for the construction of numerous iconic starships throughout Starfleet's history. The facility played a crucial role during the Federation Civil War and continues to serve as a vital center for fleet operations.
"The two made there way through the corridors up to Jopek's office, Lee was speculating wildly about what had happened to Dario. Lee was just giving Taz his theory on a changling being the saboteur when they arrived at Jopek's office. Taz pressed the door bell and then heard "Enter," as the doors flung open. They both walked into the office and stood before the admirals desk."

USS Mystique ⚔
An enigmatic vessel that operated during the tense pre-civil war period of 2406. The Mystique's intensive operational tempo is evidenced by 37 compiles in a single year, including the cryptic "All We Like Sheep Have Gone Astray" mission arc and mysterious "Harvest" operations that produced four compiles in a single day. The ship's name proved prophetic, as its missions often involved operations requiring discretion and specialized crew capabilities, including Betazoid telepaths who could navigate the complex political landscape of the era.
"Saleke and CSO, Lt. Commander Holis Gralen - 1457) Jason Dema - 1102) After Saleke's intro, Jason had to explain the situation first in his own words, before others had to. Jason stood up and took a deep breath, before"
