The USS Seattle is a Rhode Island-class Federation starship operating as part of Fourth Fleet.

History

After the wounding of the USS Anaheim Captain Nathan Hawthorne was left without a command for several months while repairs were being done on the California Class ship. Long wanting a change of command, and tired of serving to ferry doctors to disaster areas, Hawthorne was given command of the USS Seattle which was open after the events of Fleet Day. Assigned Commander Adriana Cruz as his First Officer he took command until eventually being injured in the line of duty and being removed from command to make was for his First Officer to take the mantle.

Missions

In A World Called Catastrophe

Attempting to assist a Cardassian cruiser that had lost its crew in a pre-warp civilization the USS Seattle sent down a team to investigate. This delayed the Cardassians sending down a tactical team that promised to take no prisoners freeing their people. A second Cardassian ship arrives in orbit but thankfully the work of Engsign William Hume allows the Seattle crew to stage a riot and free the hostages. The Cardassians give a grudging thanks and depart.

Even Better Than The Real Thing

While escorting the USS Casanova on a science mission the Senior Staff of the Seattle are able to take part in some holographic games in the holodecks. Unfortunately the USS Casanova angers some gods who steal the ships’ holodecks and play other tricks on the crews of the two Starfleet vessels. This forces the crew to engage in real life versions of their holographic games, until their ship is restored and they are able to continue on their way.

Exit, Pursued by a Cube

Investigating a black market dealer’s base, and finding lots of old Borg technology the crew of the USS Seattle discovers Borg transponders which activate and call the Borg. Deep Space 7 notices a Borg Cube approaching Federation Space and the USS Seattle is tasked with taking the transponders far away from inhabited planets and Federation space. They travel far out of Federation space, well past explored space and eventually attempt but fail to destroy the transponders which the Borg take and depart.

The Icarus Effect

(In Progress) The USS Seattle is well outside Federation space and needs to get back. However looking to do something more than just run home, they stop at Maya 3 and meet a civilization of all women. As they unwrap what secrets this world has they suffer an attack which could change the crew forever.
