History
2397 - 2402
The USS Fox is a relatively new Aquarius-class starship launched in the year 2397. 5 years into its first deployment, it was dry-docked for a refit just before the launch of the Nightfall campaign. Due to unforeseen complications and setbacks during the refit, the original crew was reassigned to other postings. When maintenance finally concluded, command was assigned to then Commander Michael Angelus. Still without an assigned crew at this time, the commander elected to utilize the various arrays of Emergency Hologram programs to subsidize his bridge crew - the remainder of the ship operating under computer automation as needed.
Configuration [1]
Deck 01
Deck one hosts the Main Bridge at the fore of the ship, as well as Turbo-lift and Stairwell access to the rest of the decks below. Just behind the bridge, linked to the Warp Core and Deuterium Storage Tanks, is the Standalone Holographic Processors. Mid-deck is a large Mission Configurable Cargo Hold that lies bare for repurpose, as well as the Aft Torpedo Launchers.
Deck 02
Deck two holds a modest science lab with direct sensor access at the fore of the ship, sickbay takes up most of the mid-deck, with the captain's quarters just off the turbo-lift access. Security office, secure armory, and brig are located at the aft of the deck.
Deck 03
Deck three is the ‘life deck’ of the ship, with a Mess Hall and Transporter room at the fore of the deck. Central to Deck three is Engineering, followed by various empty crew quarters and communal lavatories. There are docking ports on both Aft and Starboard sides of the deck, and the Impulse Engine Control room at the Aft of the ship. Forward Torpedo and Phaser Cannon controls are located in the very front of the ship.
Deck 04
Deck four houses both the Ship's Computer Core and a small Shuttle Bay, with medium cargo-hold capacity, as well as a cargo transporter. The shuttle bay is large enough for a single personal transport shuttle and a handful of work bees.
Auxiliary Craft
The Fox is equipped with 18 Escape Pods, which are accessed all along the outer fore, starboard and port sides of Deck 03. The Fox, also carries a Type-12 Shuttle, the Kitsune, and two Cargo Management Units in the Aft Shuttle Bay.
