File#3: USS Strider

 General Information


Designation: U.S.S. Strider


Registry#: NCC - 97313

Class: Alita Heavy Strike Wing Escort

Christened: 2410

 

Description 

[!] Contains spoilers for "Vestige Rekindled" [!]


The U.S.S. Strider was an Alita Class starship, a class of combat vessels developed to challenge the Iconian threat. The Strider itself did not see any conflict in that war, having been completed after the peace treaty was signed. It was assigned to patrol the Celes sector following the war.

During its time on patrol, the ship rescued civilian freighters S.S. Comberth, and S.S. Sand Island. It also contributed to the relief of an as yet officially named deep space colony in the Arucanis Arm.

Captain Draken, officers, and crew were set to receive an honors for their contributions to the relief of a war-torn galaxy. However, when Strider arrived at Starbase 114, it received an unexpected order to head to system FN-2011 at maximum warp. Draken and his officers and crew were to investigate anomalous readings that have emanated from that system. They gladly took the assignment.

 Contact with Strider was lost when it reached the FN-2011 system. It was later confirmed to have been destroyed along with the deaths of all officers and crew.



Crew Complement 

( Those who have appeared in the Vestige Rekindled Series )




Senior Officers

 

Captain Franciszek Draken 
- Commanding Officer

Franciszek wanted nothing more than to return to his farm. Duty is rarely accommodating.


Commander Sydney Tomcat
- First Officer

Sydney had aspirations for a command of her own. She made it a point to study every captain's log she could get her hands on.


Lt. Commander Ed Gripen 
- Operations Officer

Ed liked to play golf in the holodeck. Perhaps a bit too much.


Lt. Commander Vivaldi Rafale
- Chief Engineer

Vivaldi knew where every bolt on the ship was. He also had a sixth sense that always alerted him whenever someone was not doing something right. It didn't matter where on the ship they were.


Lieutenant Alice Chengdu 
- Communications Officer

Alice was an omniglot who had mastered seven different languages. She didn't plan on stopping there.


Lieutenant. Zofia Berkut
 - Science Officer

Zofia loved to challenge somebody's thesis; even when she knew their argument was solid beforehand. 


Lieutenant. K'ng Rap'tor
 - Tactical Officer/Chief of Security

K'ng joined Starfleet at the outbreak of the 2409 Klingon-Federation War. He did not approve of Chancellor J'mpok's leadership.


Lieutenant. Ty'Phoon
 - Medical Officer

Ty'Phoon's out sized interest in diseases had concerned some people. However, he was a very good doctor.


Enlisted Crew

 

Ensign Tricia Eagle
 - Fresh from the Academy

Tricia had two passions in life: cooking and Starfleet. Not particularly good at either, but she would not stop striving to improve.

I'm glad Duncan shared this with me. Its nice to see everyone's still active in some way, even if we don't have a platform anymore.

I definitely dig the crew's names. Then again, I play a lot of Ace Combat, my grandfather was an Aviation Mechanic in the Navy before they sent him to Los Alamos and his brother flew for Continental Air Services Inc, Air America, Air Mike (Continental Micronesia) during Vietnam and the Cold War.
