"We shall not cease from exploration // And the end of all our exploring // Will be to arrive where we started // And know the place for the first time."
    —T.S. Elliot - Ship's Dedication Quote


The USS Sojourner is a Pathfinder-class starship built in 2400 as a modernized and specialized version of the Intrepid-class light explorer, intended to handle scientific and exploration missions far from Federation space.

Produced at the Zeti Reticuli Shipyards, the Sojourner is the third of her class and features the latest in Starfleet technology and systems from the ground up. Assigned to Task Force 47 to take part in the exploration in the Thomar Expanse, she is well suited to provide a long-range platform for surveying and engaging in scientific research within the dangerous region.

Design and Layout

The USS Sojourner, like the rest of the Pathfinder-class starships has the potential to become a specialized vessels with enhanced/specialized scientific facilities. Due to the new nature of the class though she has been fitted with the standard complement of facilities designed for a ship with a multi-mission role. As her missions change and evolve her Captain and the fleet may determine that the more specialized facilities may be needed.

In general the vessels main facilities are remarkably similar to those of the intrepid class in both design and layout. Many of the features and primary spaces such and the bridge and engineering could easily be mistaken for those of the intrepid but for the state of the art equipment that is found through of the ship.

Key Locations

Bridge

On the surface the layout of the USS Sojourner bridge looks almost identical to those of the Intrepid class abet modernized with holographic displays for the LCARS and an additional sensors control station linked directly to the secondary deflector.

Ready Room

Commander Kirin Tarken treats her captain's ready room as an extension herself. The desk resembles the standard desk found in most star fleet vessels. It is light grey and the accompanying chair nestled behind the desk was a deep burgundy. The primary console is equipped with a 3D holographic display built into the right-hand corner of the desk. The only other noticeable feature on the desk is a small potted Risian Fern and a small picture frame with an image of a young Orion girl and her parents, a Orion women in Lieutenant Commander uniform and a Risian man in shorts and a loose shirt.

In addition to the desk and her primary console there the room is dominated by the large viewport and sofa which is located beside the replicator. This is often uses for meetings with the crew, senior or otherwise, to give an more informal feel. The sofa is a rich burgundy, matching the desk chair. The circular table that the sofa curves around has a small holographic display in the middle allowing for the projection or information when needed.

As with most Captains the room is decorated with items that have been collected over the course of her career. On a floating shelf beside the door there are two star ship models, the USS Daradax and the USS Sojourner. Beside the desk are two crossed Klingon swords mounted on the wall which she always dismisses when asked about them. The only other personal effect of note is a moderate sized picture of a Risian shoreline with a small house nestled back in the forest.

Operation History

The USS Sojourner has undertaken the following missions since its commission in 2400:

  • Under the command of Commander Kirin Tarken - October 2400 - Present
    • Mission 0 – An Unexpected Boon: The crew of the USS Daradax receive some unexpected new orders on their return to Deep Space 9 after completing a supply run to a nearby Bajoran colony which will push each of them to their limit. They will each be expected to perform above and beyond anything they had previously expected.
    • Mission 1 - Do not go gentle into that good night (Blood Dilithium Campaign): Following the appearance of the massive subspace rift in the Gradin Belt of the Delta Quadrant causing the formation of red dilithium deposits in its wake ships of the Fourth Fleet have been assigned to provide assistance to the privateers, merchants and traders pour through the Barzan wormhole. The USS Sojourner has been dispatched along with other ships from the Fourth Fleet to assist those in need and map the new deposits. After several weeks of mapping new dilithium deposits and providing aid to several ships and mining operations, the crew of the USS Sojourner encountered families fleeing a mining colony in a binary pulsar system that the Devore Imperium took over and forced the miners to work on under threat of death. Upon arrival in the system, the crew discover that something is not right and soon find themselves in a desperate struggle for their lives.
