[PBEM News] 2392 - USS Echo From: kohl_troi@yahoo.co-dot-uk.no-spam.invalid (captain.keeva) Date: Wed, 06 Dec 2006 23:27:57 +0000 Name: StarTrek Echo System:Third Person writing group Age Limit:15 The story so far... Three years ago(2389), the Klingons launched an unprovoked attack upon the Romulan Empire. With their fleet in tatters, the Romulans called out to their allies for help, and the Federation came to their aid, fighting back the Klingon oppressors. All was not what it seemed however. When a military coup was staged on the Klingon homeworld, and the Chancelor deposed in favour of Worf, son of Mogh, the truth was revealed. Romulan seperatist agents had bought the ear of Worf's predesessor, and had convinced him to attack their homeworld. Their aim...a return to the old ways of the Empire, and an end to the peace that had reigned for five years. Turning on their former allies, the Federation helped the Klingons drive the Empire back, and the Romulan surrender was announced sortly afterwards. The Neutral zone was re-established, and the old hostilities were renewed with a vengeance. The seperatists had succeeded in their goal. The year is now 2392, and the war has been over for six months. Captain Taylan Keeva, a veteran who lost his ship in one of the last battles, has been given Command of the USS Echo. After a troubled start, the Echo left Utopia Planetia shipyard with barely a quater of it's crew. It's first mission completed, she turned towards Deep Space Six to pick up the rest of her crew. The Echo would not reach the space station however. A mysterious visitor has arrived on the ship, and has tested, teased and tormented the Captain and several members of his staff, before flinging the ship five hundred years into the past, and into another quadrent of space. Given no time to take stock of their situation, the Echo and her gallant crew are instantly set upon by ships native to the area of space where they have suddenly appeared.... Sound interesting? If so, then you belong on the Echo. As stated in the lead up, the ship is running short staffed, but we are always looking for new players. As the game is set 13 years after Star Trek Nemesis, most characters within reason will be considered.
