Opening
Commander Karrod Niac is assigned as commanding officer of the USS Ronin, with the objective of reinforcing Starfleet's presence in the Alpha Isles given the growing instability in the region. The Trill is tasked with this position due to the detection of Sencha Radiation in the sector, a dangerous form of radiation that was discovered by one of his former hosts. Their shakedown cruise, however, won't proceed as expected and will lead them to discover that the threat to the region is far more dangerous than anticipated. With a half-refit ship and a crew that has never worked together before, the imminent risk is greater and more acute than any of them expected.
Locations
Alpha Isles
Deep Space 33
Deep Space 33
Deep Space 33 is a Sigma Class Federation space station[1] located just within the Alpha Isles region of space. It was the refit yard of the USS Ronin, and constitutes its main port. One of its dry docks was damaged during the Ronin's maiden voyage.
Olidra System
An Alpha Isles system. Starfleet intelligence noticed unusual Sheliak traffic within it, prompting the USS Ronin to investigate.
It's a binary star system, with two rocky inner planets (B or H type planets), three gas giants and two ice planets in the outskirts of the system. In the outer edges there are pockets of space debris, consisting of space rock and starship debris. Around the gas giants loomed a myriad of undefined artificial structures, one of them a massive structure the size of a small moon, revolving around Olintra 4. Upon investigation, this super structure turned out to be a Sheliak/Tholian weapon that emitted Sencha Radiation Waves as a weapon, as well as a screen around the system that disrupted communications and blocked long range scanning. It was eventually disabled by the Rhine team thanks to Ian O'Connor. However, whether such a solution would last in the long term couldn't be anticipated.
Sunjat System
The Kushino lurched ahead and soon began to tremble as it entered the atmosphere and made its way deeper into the clouds. V'Len was watching his sensors when he noticed the sound of a gentle tapping. It was calming and seemed to be coming from all around them but was loudest toward the front of the Kushiro. Looking up, V'Len noted tiny droplets on the viewport. Yellow-Orange in color they streaked across the window.
Kel: ::in wonder:: It's rain. ::looking down at his console and then back up:: Helium-neon rain.
The Sunjat system is an uninhabited system in the Alpha Isles, which contained several gas giants with pockets of radiation around them. The S.S. Sabrina's Delight took refuge there after being attacked by a Sheliak/Tholian patrol.
