Following the [[ma:Tomed_Incident|Tomed Incident]] in 2311, the Romulan Star Empire entered a prolonged period of total isolation.

Tucked away within the primary hull of Eos Station, the biodome (as the locals call it) is a self-contained habitat. Its lush landscape is programmed to echo Napa Valley, California on Earth, complemented by an artificial sky programmable to simulate day and night. Affectionately known as "Eden," the Terrestrial Enclosure contains a thriving meadow, a high-speed tram, an athletic field, and a small commercial and residential district, among a variety of other amenities and establishments.

This club offers an unparalleled experience for patrons from all corners of the galaxy. Nestled within the crowded confines of Eos Station, Club 504 is the  premier establishment for those needing a little night life entertainment.


====First Deployment====


==Physical Configuration==
{{For|article=[[Sovereign Class|''Sovereign''-class exploratory cruiser]]}}
The ''Valkyrie'' is a ''Sovereign''-class exploratory cruiser largely in the stock configuration for the 2400s.


With a little over 20 decks, the ship has hundreds of rooms and locations that serve a variety of functions for the crew.
==== The Quantum Brew ====
[[File:Gencraft image 1710272487563-1.png|thumb|alt=|left|200x200px]]


===Main Bridge===
[[File:Valkyrie's Bridge by Tadeo D'oria.jpg|frameless|right]]The '''Main Bridge''' was also referred to as Asgard. It served as the epicenter for all command decisions made aboard the ''Valkyrie''. The main bridge design purpose of the ''Valkyrie'' was to be functional and purposeful.


Like all Starfleet bridge designs, the captain's chair sat in the center of the bridge, to the right sat the executive officer's chair, and to the left an additional command chair usually reserved by the ship's chief counsellor, chief medical officer, or any official or dignitary the Captain sees fit. All three command chairs are made of a deep maroon textile and are surrounded by a metal handrail that encircles the rear half of the central command area.


At the front of the bridge was a wide-angled window that filled the forward bulkhead. This window has holographic projectors built into the rim, allowing it to function as a more traditional viewscreen. It can also be used as an emergency evacuation hatch, with force fields being lowered until replaced by a large, external bulkhead. Directly aft of this were the helm and ops positions. Circling the bridge to the port side was a communications station, science station I and II while on the starboard side were engineering and missions ops I and II. Behind the command circle is the primary tactical and security station. Behind it is the MSD.
Tucked away in the docking ring, The Quantum Brew is a place of warmth and comfort. The aroma of freshly roasted beans fill the air, inviting patrons to take a temporary pause from their travels. The decor is a rustic charm, with holographic displays of celestial bodies decorating the walls with traditional Bolian tapestries. The owner, a cheerful Bolian named Tuvor, is always ready with a friendly smile and a hot cup of the Nebula's Nectar, a signature blend he ''claims'' was inspired by none other than Admiral Janeway herself.


There are a total of six ways to enter the bridge. Starting on the forward port side, there is a small alcove that holds access to the captain's ready room and also turbolift two. Aft of that is access to turbolift one, on the starboard side was an entrance to a small corridor that led to the observation lounge. On the forward starboard side was access to an emergency turbolift with access to the battle bridge and main engineering it also provided access to a small head.


=== Ready Room ===
====The Scottish Tap====
[[File:Valkyrie's Ready Room.jpg|border|frameless|321x321px|right]]The ''Valkyrie''<nowiki/>'s '''ready room''' was located on the starboard side of the main bridge. The focal point of the room was the wooden desk that featured a work area and access console, located in front of the main entrance door. A shelf beside the main work desk allowed the commanding officer to display personal belongings such as pictures, or personal items.
[[File:The Scottish Tap.jpg|left|thumb|alt=|200x200px]]


A raised level in the front section of the room featured a small table, a curved couch, and a food replicator. The bulkhead behind the couch featured three large windows facing the starboard side of the ship. An aft-facing door beside the main entrance provided access to a head.


=== Observation Lounge ===
[[File:Valkyrie's Observation Lounge.jpg|frameless|right]]Located aft of the bridge, was the '''observation lounge''' aboard the ''Valkyrie''. The lounge serves as a space for the senior staff and other officers to collaborate, celebrate, and make plans for the journey ahead. It connected to the bridge through a short, ramped corridor on the starboard side of the conference lounge. Another door, on the port side of the room, led directly to a turbolift.


The shape of the conference table matched the curvature of the exterior hull, set into the surface of the table were holographic projectors for displaying images and data on the surface of the table or holographic LCARS panes projected at respective eye levels. The table was surrounded by ten chairs upholstered in a deep maroon textile which was also located on the bridge.
Upon stepping in, one is immediately drawn to the cozy feel of a traditional tavern steeped in Scottish heritage. The gentle glow of the lighting further enhances the intricate wooden details that decorate the establishment. Comfortably arranged seating invites guests to settle in and relax while an impressive bar takes center stage, offering an expansive array of beverages to choose from. Neatly organized rows of bottles adorning the shelves behind the bar showcase a diverse selection of spirits and liquors. The prominent display of cigar boxes atop the bar adds a charming touch of culture. The owner, Haggis McCreery, warmly welcomes you to The Scottish Tap


=== Battle Bridge ===
[[File:Valkyrie's Battle Bridge.jpg|frameless|right]]The '''Battle Bridge''' was also referred to as a secondary bridge. It was designed to function as a full bridge when in a tactical situation or during saucer separation. The battle bridge is the secondary hull’s bridge.


=== Odin's Palace ===
==Support Craft==
'''Odin’s Palace''' was the captain’s mess and lounge located on Deck 05 alongside the captain's quarters, the executive officer's quarters, the executive dining room, and the senior officers' quarters. It was never an overpopulated place reserved for the exclusive use of the ship's senior officers and their guests. Odin’s Palace was designed with a warm, comforting feel appropriate for small gatherings.


The design of Odin’s Palace took heavy influence from that of Nordic / Scandinavian taverns with decorations tying back to the Viking and Scandinavian culture. Wood furnishing with intentionally chosen retro design elements is meant to invoke a sense of ease and relaxation amongst the denizens of Odin’s Palace. Seating is generous with seats found at the bar, in a central common space, and a handful of tables along the outer walls.
===='''Assigned Vessel'''====

=== Valhalla ===
===='''Runabouts'''====
'''Valhalla''' is the primary social space of the ''Valkyrie'' and is located on Deck 15. It was the closest to a ‘no ranks’ space aboard the ship, even though that rule does not exist. Instead, Valhalla operates under the assumption that if a senior officer is present, then they are free to be engaged with any member of the crew.


The decor chosen for Valhalla was to match that of the Nordic / Scandinavian-style lounge and bar. There was usually some sort of mantle to show off a piece of Viking or Scandinavian culture.
*Sadat, Research (Danube-class Runabout)
 
*Mandela, VIP Craft (Danube-class Runabout)
It is also a firm rule of Valhalla that the only person aboard a ship who is allowed to declare themselves 'the strongest crewmember' must be the strongest crewmember, as measured by an arm wrestling competition between every worthy opponent. Violators of this rule are refused all service by the wait staff until they have made amends - two mugs of Pale Lager Beer.

=== Strategic Operations Center (StratOps) ===
[[File:Valkyrie's StratOps.jpg|frameless|right]]The '''Strategic Operations Center''' or '''StratOps''' is the primary social space of the ''Valkyrie'' and is located on Deck 10. It was installed aboard the Valkyrie at the request of Captain Jackson. The purpose of StratOps was as an information and analysis hub supporting the ''Valkyrie''’s mission objectives. From StratOps, the crew can have an overview of up to three sectors on the holographic interface and can monitor changes and plan operations. This allows ''Valkyrie'' to conduct data gathering and analysis operations across multiple star systems.
 
With the multi-mission nature of the ''Valkyrie'', StratOps sees extensive use as a mission planning center during diplomatic operations with multiple local concerns, such as security or humanitarian support. This provides operational space away from the bridge and allows the command team to conduct strategic analysis.
