Endless Night


Abandon ship! A routine stellar survey turns to disaster when a spatial phenomenon cripples the USS Arrow and leaves it dead in space. As a reluctant Captain Shayne orders the crew to abandon the Arrow, they realise their only hope of survival is on a small jungle world orbiting the star whose unusual axis means the planet is in perpetual nighttime for weeks on end. With no rescue in sight and supplies and morale low, the crew must fight to survive the endless night...


Act 1


Arriving in the Chi Ceti System, the Arrow is tasked with mapping the star system there which includes a white-yellow star giving off abnormal readings. The system also contains a small Class M planet which is mostly jungle, but the strange orbital axis of the planet means it is in perpetual nighttime for approximately three weeks at a time. As Arrow conducts her scans, the star belches out a mix of gases which fuse the Bussard Collectors and frazzle the EPS grid. The crews only hope to survive is to purge the system, and leave the Arrow dead in space, or else the ship will explode...

After another solar wave strikes the ship, Lieutenant JG Maria Alvarez concludes that the only way to purge the ‘’Arrow’’ of the combustible gases is to totally power down the ship and do it manually via a shuttle. With time running out, Captain Randal Shayne orders a code blue alert and evacuates the ship, relocating the crew to the strange jungle planet. Lt.Commander Maz Rodan, along with Lieutenant Chloe Waters, Lieutenant JG Alvarez and Ensign Ar’Gorvalei head to the shuttle bay to launch their only long range shuttle - the Type 11 - to manually clear the Bussard collectors and make supply runs to the crew on the planet.

The task doesn’t take long, however, when it’s discovered the real reason of the power troubles is because the radiation the star is kicking out is causing random formations of minuscule dilithium. Complications in the atmosphere also drag the escape pod Ensign Jacin Ayemet is occupying to drift off course and make an emergency landing in a remote part of the planet. Similar fluctuations cause the shuttle to crash in a nearby spot, leaving Rodan and Waters injured.

On the ship, something causes Lieutenant Commander R’Ariel’s telepathic and empathic senses to go into overdrive, reverting her to a more primal Caitian nature, and she absconds into the Jeffries Tubes after securing the evacuation of Sickbay. Captain Shayne, Lieutenant Commander Artinus Serinus and Lieutenant Commander Quentin Collins are the last to leave the ‘’Arrow’’, but a life sign scan indicates the insensate Caitian/Deltan CMO is still somewhere on the deserted ship…
