Dramatis Personae
The following is the beginnings of an attempt to catalogue the various players in the ongoing story of the Starbase; the non-player characters and ships that have acted as both adversaries and allies in her past. Players should feel free to update/amend page whenever necessary.
Characters
This table only contains MSNPCs (mission-specific NPCs). For recurring player-controlled NPCs please see Ops PNPC list. Due to the size the table is bound to grow to, please try to keep bios as short as possible whilst still being useful.

Sal Taybrim
|
The leader of the Romulan Essentialist forces attacking the Starbase, Renzon used his cloaked Rigellian Striker to monitor the situation, only revealing himself when he believed he could easily destroy the runabout Aramis, commanded by Sal Taybrim. His attack on the Aramis failed however, and Renzon left as quickly as he'd appeared. His current whereabouts are unknown, the ship had taken damage, but was far from destroyed when it disappeared.

Imprisoned, Awaiting Trial
|
Sal Taybrim
|
Posing as an Arkarian merchant, "Ry'van" (real name Rhansu Lloran) infiltrated Starbase 118 and orchestrated the theft of data from the base's computer core, killing several Starfleet officers and injuring many more in the process. Lloran was apprehended after a last stand in a turbolift shaft, attempting to suffocate everyone on the entire deck - himself included - after hacking the fire suppression systems. He is currently awaiting trial for his crimes.

| T'Val

Romulan
|

|
Sabina Tiam
|
Due to the ion storm raging around the Starbase, long-range communication was difficult. T'Val's role therefore was to operate a communications relay she carried about her person whilst aboard a civilian transport ship Dawnbreaker. The Dawnbreaker was awaiting docking near the station, which allowed T'Val to relay messages from the Romulan leader, Renzon, to his troops. When the going got tough however, T'Val turned her back on her compatriots and abandoned her communications equipment in the toilet aboard the vessel. Once the Dawnbreaker had docked, she slipped away into the hustle and bustle of the station. It is believed that she then left the Starbase at the first opportunity.

Eliaan Deron
|
Chief Military Advisor to the Thracian Alliance, Kital Creena came to the Starbase in the wake of the computer virus that knocked out all powered flight in the vicinity. Having not been nearby at the time of the attack, Creena's ship the Vauthil was unaffected, and able to assist in the salvation of the sector. Repayment for the Federation's assistance in the Thracia 2 incident years earlier, perhaps.

Notable Factions and Groups
Non-canon factions and groups (or canon factions that have undergone noteworthy changes from their canon appearances) are listed here. Their alignment should indicate whether they are, in general, friendly or not to the Federation. A group will be listed as either 'Active', 'Inactive' or 'Weakened', indicating the likelihood of their cropping up again in stories. Groups listed as Inactive are assumed to have been utterly destroyed with no hope of rebuilding - or simply disbanded, having achieved their aims.

Renzon tr'Lareth, Ry'van Alstred, T'Val.
|
| Bio: A group of Romulan essentialists determined to orchestrate the rebirth of the Romulan Star Empire, by whatever means necessary. Most recently attacked the Starbase by ramming a ship into it, intending to capitalise on the chaos that followed by stealing data from the Starbase's computer, however the hacker - Alstred - was apprehended before he could escape, and Renzon's attack was fought off.

Sahmson
|
| Bio: A Romulan terrorist organisation who plotted to take over several Federation-protected colonies near Starbase 118. Sahmson, a Reikara operative undercover as a Starfleet security Lieutenant, succeeded in hacking the Starbase's computer systems and spreading a virus to all the surrounding ships, cutting their power completely. Sahmson was eventually apprehended, and with the help of the Thracian Alliance and the hastily assembled defence fleet, the Federation managed to save over 80% of the colonists on the targeted worlds. Reikara fled back to the shadows once more.

Senator Vreeya, Commander Creena
|
| Bio: In 2388 the situation on Thracia 2 reached boiling point. After the discovery of a valuable natural resource, Pergium, tension escalated between the Klingons and Romulans, both of whom wanted the opportunity to mine it. Doing so however would've wiped out the native inhabitants of the planet. The Thracian Alliance was formed with the intention of protecting Thracia 2, and the minerals it contained. The Federation stepped in to assist the alliance in saving the planet's population, and the Alliance would later repay the favour after an attempted attack on the station.

Ships and Locations
The ships listed here are mission-specific NPC ships only, that were used in sims and had a part to play in the story. For player-controlled support vessels see Ops Auxiliary Crafts list and the Ops Support Ship history. Locations would encompass any planets or stations visited by the Ops crew where a mission took place - ignore locations used purely for shoreleave.

Sandra O'Reilly
|
The SS Dawnbreaker was a transport vessel bringing a contingent of civilians to Starbase 118 on a routine trip. The sudden lack of any communication with the Starbase triggered warning signs at the Starbase's Fly-Ops, however it turned out to be merely a problem with the ships's communications system. One of the Romulan insurgents, T'Val, had been using the ship to relay messages from her leader, Renzon, to the rest of the Romulans. However the captain and crew of the ship itself were cleared of any wrongdoing.

The unnamed Rigellian Striker used by Renzon as a command ship, lurking in the void with her enhanced cloaking device. The ship decloaked and attacked the runabout Aramis, but was unable to destroy her before being forced to turn tail and run. Current whereabouts unknown.
