}}The USS ''Cygnus'' is a ''Nebula''-class heavy cruiser which has seen decades of Starfleet service. After a recent refit, the ship has been assigned to the Fourth Fleet along the Breen border. As a Federation ship-of-the-line, her mission includes exploration, diplomacy, and defense, and in this often-lawless region, her presence is necessary to keep the peace and show the flag. Tasked with securing the trailing-coreward section of the Alpha Quadrant where the Federation intersects with Tzenkethi, Ferengi, Breen, and Kzinti space, an area that has long been noted for the porousness of the Federation's borders to raiders.

Thanks to the stabilization of the Barzan wormhole, this region is now home to the only reliable connection between the Alpha and Delta Quadrants, which has significantly upset the balance of power, and so the border is more dangerous than ever, necessitating that ships like the ''Cygnus'' hold the line and keep the situation from descending into chaos.

"So much universe, and so little time." - Terry Pratchett

The USS Cygnus (NCC-71954) is a Nebula-class heavy cruiser currently assigned to the Fourth Fleet's Challenger Squadron. Captain Sofia Vestri was given command of the Cygnus after a few turbulent years for the ship which saw three commanding officers in two years. It's hoped that the experienced Captain Vestri will prove to be a stabilising influence and allow the crew to put the past few difficult years behind them.
