On 239409.21, at the end of his one-year, mandatory field training, Cadet Elias Burke was promoted to the rank of ensign and assigned to the sovereign-class vessel USS ''Gorkon'' on 239409.26 where he currently serves as an engineer under the command of Rear Admiral Quinn Reynolds. | On 239409.21, at the end of his one-year, mandatory field training, Cadet Elias Burke was promoted to the rank of ensign and assigned to the sovereign-class vessel USS ''Gorkon'' on 239409.26 where he currently serves as an engineer under the command of Rear Admiral Quinn Reynolds. | ||
''' | '''The Devil's Expanse (239409.17 - 239411.01):''' | ||
On stardate 239409. | On stardate 239409.17 the ''Gorkon'' was pulled out of her established quantum slipstream by subspace fissures created by high-energy pulsars in the dense Roman Expanse nebula. The forced hard stop was enough to temporarily disable both the ''Gorkon's'' warp core and her quantum slipstream drive, leaving the ship with only minimal impulse power. However, due to an inexplicable power drain the Gorkon soon lost even impulse power and energy levels dropped so low that reignition of the ship's warp core and slipstream drive became impossible. The ship was dead in space and, upon surveying her surroundings, the Gorkon found that she was not alone. Several other ships drifted within the heart of the Roman Expanse, derelict and drained of power. The derelicts were represented by many races and affiliations, a majority Romulan, but one nearby ship was Federation: an Excelsior-class cruiser, the ''Phoenix''. | ||
Under the command of First Officer [[Trellis Vondaryan]], a shuttlecraft was dispatched to investigate the remains of the ''Phoenix'' while Chief Engineer [[Cory Stoyer]] attempted to reactivate the ''Gorkon's'' warp core by forcing electro-plasma manually through the core's main conduits. Plans of action were soon disrupted however when enigmatic, faceless, shape-shifting entities began phasing aboard the ''Gorkon'' through subspace fissures permeating the ship's inner decks. The faceless subspace entities seemed to be attacking the crew of the ''Gorkon'' at first and defensive strategies were put into action to contain and expel the creatures from the ship. However, when Eli was attacked by one of the creatures he was infected by a tele-nueroligic virus that acted as a form of both communication with the faceless entities and a method of their remote control of Eli's basic brain functions. Soon after Eli's infection Rear Admiral Quinn Reynolds was infected by the tele-nuerologic virus and, via their mutual confirmation of one another, the crew of the ''Gorkon'' learned that the subspace entities intended to assist the ''Gorkon'' and her crew in escaping the nebula. | Under the command of First Officer [[Trellis Vondaryan]], a shuttlecraft was dispatched to investigate the remains of the ''Phoenix'' while Chief Engineer [[Cory Stoyer]] attempted to reactivate the ''Gorkon's'' warp core by forcing electro-plasma manually through the core's main conduits.
