Description:

This is a written role-play group, meaning you create a character and then
interact with other players. You can play either directly from the website
listed above or by email, however you have to sign up and indicate your
preferences at the website. You can have more than one character, though
at present we'd like just one per person to start. (we'll work on having
more than that later) If you've watched StarTrek Voyager then this will be
much easier to explain. When Voyager was pulled to the Delta Quadrant
things happened in such a way that the ship returned to the Alpha Quadrant
after only 7 years. When they reached the Delta Quadrant they had most of
the crew and nearly all of the senior staff. This rp diverges from the
storyline almost from the beginning. The two ships (Voyager and the
Maquis' Val Dean) enter into the badlands and get pulled 70,000
light-years from home. Voyager's senior staff dies, leaving only junior
officers to crew the vessel. (All "Main" characters are gone with the
exceptions of Neelix, Kes, the EMH and Seska) The crew is still going to
be comprised of Starfleet and Maquis but the adventures will be different
and the possibility of getting home is little more than a distant hope.
