The Avalon Sector is a largely unexplored region on the border of the Delta Quadrant.

The Federation has an strong interest in maintaining a Starfleet presence in this sector, near the Ba'ku, whose planetary eco-system is home to a ring system emanating regenerative metaphasic radiation. During first contact mission, USS Enterprise-E ascertained the Ba'ku are continuously threatened by the Son'a.

This sector's primary research station is Deep Space 285.

Following the resignation of Rear Admiral Michael Samuelson (Retired) after a dubious investigation of Capt. Tyr Waltas, Starfleet has assigned Rear Admiral Richard Hart as Avalon's Interim Commander. Following the events at Genura III, Ambassador Susan Ginsburg is on a diplomatic mission to the Saurian Empire[1].

Discovered Systems and Phenomenae


The Saurian Empire

A caste-based society governed by a dynastic monarchy. There are currently 2 known Saurian castes, including the monarchy itself and the Genurans, who may be an offshoot of ancient Saurians.

Tonlanus Warrior Clan

This is the largest and most powerful warrior clan and caste in Saurian society.

The figurehead and patriarch of this clan is Tonlan, a highly-decorated Saurian General and commanding officer of the PLECANTH, the Imperial Saurian Capitol Ship. Tonlon is an accomplished tactician and served closely with the late Emperor Sha'tene. Many promiment Saurian military officials can trace their lineage to the Clan of Tonlanus.

The Saurian military structure shares similar traditions with ancient Earth medieval warriors, royal cavalries and a quasi-militaristic structure of the modern Starfleet Marine Core.

The Saurians navy has not perfected warp-technology, instead harnessing fusion from small neutron stars as engines of their interstellar fleet. This presents an unusual problem with the Prime Directive, as the Federation contact with pre-warp cultures prohibits the sharing of technology and cultural interchange. However, space-faring Cityships ferry regiments of Paladins throughout the Avalon sector. It is worth noting that Saurian military are beholden to the Emperor and the politico-religious order that gives the monarchy the power to govern Sauria.

Each Paladin carries a small shield emitter and has fashioned a handheld fusion-based closed-loop radiation emitter. The weapon is extremely dangeorus in close combat and can peirce duranium, cauterize wounds and even deflect phased-based energy. By limiting the field of radiation and simultaneously emitting and attracting radiation particles toward the emitter, a focused beam of energy is harnessed in a melee weapon that has already demonstrated its ability to effect strong casualty rates.

The Drammus

The Drammus is an intelligence "caste" population including both Saurians and Genurans. Dorin, survivor of Genuran Holocaust and brother of Zeun, is a known Drammus. Although many Drammus observe and report and serve aboard Saurian Cityships, they appear to work closely with Genuran colonists and refugees not under Federation asylum.

The Genurans

Genurans are refugees under Federation protection who have left Sauria and largely do not adhere to th the majority Saurian politico-religious structure. All surviving Genurans belong to a minoriity population that is less than 2% of the known Saurian population. 100% of self-identified Genurans who have voluntarily submitted to Federation medical tests possess a DNA sequence that is only 99.6% similar to Saurian DNA.

First contact with Genurans was initiated by USS Discovery under command of Captain Tyr Waltas.

The Genura Sytem

Once a trinary system, with three class J gas giants, 1 proto-planet and one M-class inhabited planet, Genura III, is now the site of a massive singularity. Before the collapse of Genura C, a neutron star, the system was home to a non-Federation colony population numbering over 8,000 sentient beings not subject to the Prime Directive.

During it's state as a trinary star system, the system and it's planets were subject to extreme terraforming, gravitational and temporal engineering, allowing Genura III to develop into a M-Class planet in comparatively recent cosmological time. Genura III's elliptical orbit subjected it to massive gravitational stresses when it passed between its parent stars, however, it was discovered this orbit too was engineered by Genuran temporal scientists whose work was co-opted by a religious group within the Genuran colony.

Starfleet Intelligence speculated the Genuran homeworld colony is deep in Avalon sector, possibly Sauria Prime. Disregarding this possibility, it was unclear until recently how or why Genura III's colonists so quickly evolved interstellar warp-flight and subspace communications, within such dangerous gravitational wells.

Zeun & The Genuran Holocaust

Zeun is a known galactic war criminal and responsible for the destruction of the Genuran C neutron star, which displaced 8,000 Genurans and escalated the cause of reunification and Genuran holocaust.

On stardate 238508.03, Starfleet Command received a distress call from the Genura System and sent USS Constitution, under command of Captain Tyr Waltas and crew of the USS Discovery. Upon arrival at Genura III, it was discovered that 3/4 of the Genuran population were seeking asylum and unable to evacuate all 8,000 before the collapse of their neutron star. However, within that time and the time Discovery could establish planetary orbit, severe temporal engineering reversed the figures and the religious minority was now the majority.

Upon arrival to the surface, the Discovery away teams encountered two groups, one of which was a politico-religious majority calling itself the Genuran Traditional Order led by a charismatic but insane leader calling himself Zeun. Although this group no longer desired to evacuate Genura III, a smaller secular separatist group, known as the Free People of Genura, led by Dorin, a former government official, assembled indisputable data proving the imminent nova of the Genura C neutron star and sent the distress call under great risk. Discovery crew were responsible for bringing information about the Genuran supernova into the Genuran public sphere.

It is speculated that temporal engineering riddled Genura's solar system nearly impenetrable with dangerous gravitational anomalies and also accelerated the passage of time, allowing the religious minority to achieve power in the relative time between the reception of a distress message and the arrival of help. Although the Zeun was found responsible for attempting temporal engineering, endangering a solar system by altering the state of the neutron star and attempted genocide, he escaped arrest by either the Discovery or the flagship of the Genuran New Order, the Vetica.

Aided by USS Discovery, whose crew exposed the scientific proof of Genura's doom, most Genurans escaped from the system. Many of them were separatists and traditionalists.

Aurix

Aurix is a single star system. Aurix II is a desert planet and a former Federation research colony. On stardate 23850704.24 Admiral Joh'qui sent USS Discovery-B to Aurix II after it ceased subspace communication. Aurix II's fate was apparently within the scope of involvement of the Q.
