The USS Resolute is a Rhode Island-class scout. Currently under the command of Captain Raan Mason, she is assigned to the Fourth Fleet's Task Force 47 and is part of the Canterbury Division.
Blood Dilithium
After a massive subspace phase pulse passed through the Delta Quadrant's Gradin Belt in September 2400, the USS Resolute, along with much of the Fourth Fleet, was deployed and tasked with investigating the appearance of Blood Dilithium.
Shortly after an incident with a mining ship, the Resolute encountered a Devore Imperium warship hunting for telepaths. While not able to stop the Imperium from taking several crew members, those who were not captured faked several engineering issues to hasten the departure of the Imperium team, leading the Imperium to believe that the Resolute had been destroyed shortly afterward.
The senior staff, however, had hatched a plan to rescue the telepathic crew members who the Devore captured. One of the crew members who was taken had a specific mineral deposit in his bone marrow unique to the planet he was born on, enabling the Resolute to pinpoint the location of their captured crew and launch a rescue mission.
During the rescue mission, the Resolute’s chief science officer, Quinn Allen, was possessed by an unknown entity that hated the Devore and sought vengeance on them. The entity used Allen to disable the Devore guards, but the ship's counsellor was able to convince the entity to spare the lives of non-Imperium personnel present. The rescued crew members were returned to the Resolute, including a disoriented Allen, who was cared for by the counsellor in sickbay.
The fate of the entity possessing Allen remains unclear, although there is a replicator on Deck 4 that remains... glitchy.
The Lost Fleet: Protect Arriana
When the Dominion’s Lost Fleet appeared in 2401, Fourth Fleet and the USS Resolute were mobilised to meet the threat. Given the captain, Raan Mason’s, experience with ground combat, the Resolute was dispatched to Arriana Prime where a large cohort of Jem’Hadar had managed to land on the surface.
Even though a Rhode Island class does not have the largest crew in the fleet, they turned out to have a larger than average number of combat capable personnel on board. En-route to Arriana Prime, contact was made with a civilian livestock transporter, the Morningstar to help with the evacuation of civilians in the affected areas of the planet.
Upon arrival, Resolute’s combat teams were shuttled down to the surface to take strategic locations and organise defences with whatever was left of any civilian forces they could find. With the Morningstar’s arrival, civilians in the path of the Jem’Hadar’s advance were evacuated from the area.
Unfortunately, the Jem’Hadar were not so easily beaten. Evading the combat patrols they attacked the evacuation point, causing one of the Morningstar’s transporter rafts to crash. The second raft swiftly followed, crashed deliberately into the evacuation area and killing the Jem’Hadar strike force.
At Fourth Fleet’s call to arms, the Resolute left orbit of Arriana Prime to join the battle of Farpoint.
Configuration
Main Article: Rhode Island-class Scout
The Resolute is a Rhode Island-class scout that follows the stock configuration, apart from an expanded crew lounge on deck three. This space, called 'the Pit' is primarily used as a lounge and bar, but can be quickly adapted to become a barracks or an auxiliary medical bay, should the need arise to transport larger numbers in the case of evacuation or other mission parameters.
Notable Crew
- Commanding Officer - Captain Raan Mason - a Llanarian male
- Executive Officer - Commander Jeri Zale - A ract'l female
