The '''USS ''Proteus'' (NCC-97402)''', an [[Echelon Class|''Echelon''-class light cruiser]], stands as a beacon of resilience and dedication under the command of [[bfms_char:120323|Captain Elara Quinn]]. Commissioned in 2398, this versatile starship is an integral asset to [[Task Force 17]]'s [[Lakota Squadron]]. Based out of [[Deep Space 17]] near the enigmatic [[Typhone Frontier|Typhon Expanse]], ''Proteus'' is equipped for a variety of crucial missions, including rapid response operations, engineering support, and humanitarian aid.  
The '''USS ''Proteus'' (NCC-97402)''', an [[Echelon Class|''Echelon''-class light cruiser]] [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]] starship currently assigned to [[Fourth Fleet|Fourth Fleet's]] [[Task Force 17]] and is under the command of [[bfms_char:43421|Captain Noli Auru]]. A new, formidable vessel and a crucial element of [[Lakota Squadron]], ''Proteus'' adds logistical support to the squadron's many mission profiles. Capable of rapidly responding to a wide variety of humanitarian and engineering assignments, she is also no slouch when it comes to protecting Starfleet and Federation assets across the quadrant. Led by her new captain, the ''Proteus'' crew is largely made up of young officers seeking to atone for the tragedies of Frontier Day.  


Following the tragic Frontier Day massacre, which claimed the lives of many of her seasoned crew members, ''Proteus'' is now largely manned by young and eager personnel determined to honor their predecessors' legacy. These fresh faces bring a spirit of renewal and commitment to the ship's vital duties, forging a path of hope and recovery in the aftermath of loss. With Captain Quinn's experienced leadership guiding them, the ''Proteus'' crew embodies the Starfleet ideals of courage, unity, and service to the greater good.

One of Starfleet's newest and most impressive starships, ''Proteus'' adds significant capabilities to the squadron. Whether it is logistical support or rapid response to a wide variety of humanitarian and engineering assignments, she is also no slouch when it comes to protecting Starfleet and Federation assets across the quadrant. Mission objectives ''Proteus'' can expect to conduct include:
* '''2399:''' Declared as active by Starfleet, ''Proteus'' begins operations with the Fourth Fleet. A blend of experienced officers and fresh-faced cadets, the crew is put through its paces by Captain Quinn during a number of missions.
* '''2400:''' During the [[Century Storm]] crisis of this year, ''Proteus'' is called upon to evacuate a colony in the Paulson Nebula. Once the storm has abated, the ship returns many of the colony's evacuees and helps in the rebuilding efforts.
* '''2401:''' ''Proteus'' is hit by a number of tragedies during the early months of 2401. She is involved in several skirmishes with the Breen-Dominion alliance following their assault on the [[Deneb Sector]]. She suffers casualties but remains on the front lines for the duration of the short but bloody conflict. She is later scheduled to be at Earth for the [[Frontier Day]] celebrations, but repairs from an encounter with a Borg Probe delay her from the festivities. That doesn't stop her from succumbing to the Jupiter virus, however, with almost fifteen of her more senior officers being killed in the disaster. In the weeks that follow, the ship is involved in a clash with a Borg Sphere at the mouth of an Underspace Corridor. The clash results in the death of Captain Quinn, and upon return to dock for repairs, the ship is assigned a new commanding officer - [[bfms_char:43421|Captain Noli Auru]].

* Evacuate civilians from hazardous zones following natural disasters or attacks.

* Transport essential cargo, personnel, and equipment between key Federation outposts.
* Coordinate supply chain operations for deep space missions.
* Patrol and safeguard strategic Federation borders and installations.
* Engage and neutralize potential threats to Federation security, including pirate activities and hostile incursions.

===Frontier Day Debacle===
For much of the last few years, ''Lakota'' had been under construction, overseen by Andorian [[bfms char:74021|Captain Kosev Thiren]]. As construction came to an end, Thiren had been replaced by a Human, Captain Lorraine Thorn, who oversaw the final stage of construction and was at the helm when the newly constructed Excelsior II-class starship took part in the momentous Frontier Day celebrations. When the Jupiter Signal hit the fleet at Earth, ''Lakota'' crew succumbed to the Borg assimilation process. Dozens of the ship's officers were killed, including Captain Thorn herself. ''Lakota'' herself received considerable damage and, once the signal was reversed, what was left of her crew guided the ship to [[Avalon Fleet Yards]] for repairs. At the conclusion of the repairs process, [[bfms_char:43418|Fleet Captain Keziah Nazir]] was ordered to assume command and form the new [[Lakota Squadron]] as part of the [[Fourth Fleet]]'s [[Task Force 17]].

The USS Proteus (NCC-97402), an Echelon-class light cruiser Federation starship currently assigned to Fourth Fleet's Task Force 17 and is under the command of Captain Noli Auru. A new, formidable vessel and a crucial element of Lakota Squadron, Proteus adds logistical support to the squadron's many mission profiles. Capable of rapidly responding to a wide variety of humanitarian and engineering assignments, she is also no slouch when it comes to protecting Starfleet and Federation assets across the quadrant. Led by her new captain, the Proteus crew is largely made up of young officers seeking to atone for the tragedies of Frontier Day.
