The '''''Negh'Var''-class warship''' is a mightily impressive and intimidating vessel in the service of the [[Klingon Empire]]. Serving as the flagship class of the [[Klingon Defense Force]] in the latter half of the 24th century, the ''Negh'Var'' is a direct response to the [[Old Romulan Star Empire|Romulan Star Empire's]] flagship [[D'deridex Class|''D'deridex''-class]] warbird. Following its debut during the [[ma:Dominion_cold_war|cold war]] with the [[Dominion]], the ''Negh'Var'' continues to be a vital key within the Klingon fleets into the 25th century and has only recently been displaced as the Klingon flagship very recently by the [[Bortasqu' Class|''Bortasqu'''-class]].
'''Eos Station''' is a [[Watchtower Class|''Watchtower''-class]] station that is located on the Federation-Romulan border near Freecloud and adjacent to T'Met.  Currently commanded by Captain [[bfms_char:71721/|Elena Mitchell]], Eos serves as a port of call for travelers, while maintaining a Federation presence near the Romulan Free State.

===Exploration and Science===
The ''Negh'Var'' is unique within Klingon shipbuilding in that its sensor suite was developed with a multi-faceted approach in mind. Although, much like the [[K't'inga Class|''K't'inga'']] and [[Vor'cha Class|''Vor'cha''-classes]], the sensor suite's primary purpose is tactical with an additional purpose of searching for resources, it was also built with exploration in mind. The Klingon Empire learned over the 24th century from their [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]] allies that exploration and scientific discovery can lead to untold and unimaginable advances in all areas of technological advancement. Learning from that, the ''Negh'Var'' is more than capable of the scientific duties on par with many Federation ships which allows it to conduct these studies while in deep space. Whereas most other Klingon ship classes would have to send preliminary data back to the nearest outpost so a dedicated science ship could be deployed, the ''Negh'Var'' itself would be carrying out these studies and sending comprehensive details back to the nearest outpost for analysis.


===Diplomacy===
==History==
For a Klingon ship, the ''Negh'Var'' is leaps and bounds above all but the ''Bortasqu' '' in terms of diplomatic capability. The ''Negh'Var'' takes its cues directly from the ''Vor'cha'' with the increased ability to host dignitaries and spaces for diplomatic talks. It is equipped with full staterooms for Klingon administrators, massive quarters for diplomatic guests of the Klingon Empire, and sizable conference rooms. With the exception of the ''Bortasqu' '', the ''Negh'Var'' would be tasked with most diplomatic missions on behalf of the Klingon Empire and would likely fly the flag of the leader of a [[Great Houses|Great House]] in any diplomatic overtures, including with other Great Houses. However, much like the ''Vor'cha'', non-Klingons would find these accommodations lacking compared to counterparts such as the [[Odyssey Class|''Odyssey''-class]].
Commissioned in the year 2293, shortly before the signing of the [[ma:Khitomer_Accords|Khitomer Accords]], the Watchtower-class Eos Station was a military outpost along the Romulan Neutral Zone. Charged with gathering intel on the Romulans, defense of the Federation borders, and keeping tabs on our Romulan neighbors, Eos Station was the best of the best. Equipped with all the latest technology of the day, Eos Station was a shining beacon for the Federation.


===Engineering===
Following the [[ma:Tomed_Incident|Tomed Incident]] in 2311, the Romulan Star Empire entered a prolonged period of total isolation. In that time, politics changed, people changed, and the Federation’s needs changed. Once a part of the old guard, Eos was relegated to an overequipped, unimportant outpost along a border of the Federation that seemingly no longer mattered. Over the following decades, Eos fell into disrepair due to her low priority status. 2400 was the year that changed everything for Eos Station as the collapse of the Romulan Star Empire of Rator and de facto Romulan civil war changed the landscape once again. Revived and brought back to life, Eos Station is called upon again to serve the borders of the Federation, this time opposite Romulan space from the [https://wiki.bravofleet.com/index.php/Romulan_Free_State Romulan Free State], as well as many other unknown independent Romulan factions all vying for control.
Much like her predecessors the ''K't'inga'' and ''Vor'cha'', the ''Negh'Var'' was designed with the idea of a predator stalking its prey in the depths of space. Like the others, the primary hull was almost wing-like, with two nacelles on each side, connecting a long "neck" with a "head" command section. While the ''Negh'Var'' was meant to complement the ''Vor'cha'', not replace it, the ship is essentially an improved version of the ''Vor'cha'' in every way. The engine capabilities were increased, additional weapon mounts, the addition of siege weaponry built into the design, an advanced sensor suite for both combat and exploration, and even staterooms for diplomacy. Throughout the design process, the ''Negh'Var'' was one of the first ships in Klingon history to not be a simplistic engineering design but rather a more advanced one bringing many different efforts together at once.
==Layout==


===Tactical===
====Primary Hull====
The ''Negh'Var'' was the most well-equipped ship in Klingon history at the time of its launch. With more weapons emplacements than any other Klingon ship previous, its seige technology, and torpedo payload the ''Negh'Var'' was, for a time, likely the most formidable warship in the Alpha or Beta Quadrants.
Eos Station features a typical 23rd-century Federation design, consisting of a saucer-shaped primary hull with a central command tower and four main docking bays capable of servicing Constitution-class starships or smaller. Positioned halfway down is an external docking wheel, while the energy reactor housing and multi-spectrum array are located at the bottom of the station. The command tower houses the shuttlebays, medical center, support offices, and an impressive two deck operations center. Support facilities, crew quarters, and crew accommodations are also housed within the primary hull. Phaser arrays are evenly distributed around the station's exterior.


The ''Negh'Var'' is primarily unique from the previous cruisers in its lineage such as the ''K't'inga'' and ''Vor'cha''-classes by the two massive disruptor cannons on the underbelly of the ship. Tactically, these set the ''Negh'Var'' apart as being seige weapons against stationary targets be it planetary or starbases. The ''Negh'Var'' was the first Klingon ship to have such weaponry built into the design at inception, whereas previous classes would need to have such weaponry specially mounted for a specific mission profile.
====Secondary Hull====
The secondary hull of Eos Station predominantly houses cargo and maintenance facilities, along with the energy reactor and multi-spectrum array mount. Maneuvering thrusters, lifeboat ports, and weapon platforms are situated on the external hull of the secondary section.


Additionally, the ''Negh'Var'' includes a hangar deck at the top of the ship in a pod-like structure which allows it to carry several ''Kivra''-class shuttles and multiple wings of ''To'Duj''-class fighters. Tactically, this allows the Negh'Var to serve as a command and control warship on the field of battle coordinating efforts not only as a massive deployment platform itself but also with any escort ships in its battlegroup.
===='''Terrestrial Enclosure'''====
[[File:Vanguard primary hull interior.jpg|thumb|alt=|center]]
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.


===Shipboard Life===
==Promenade==
The ''Negh'Var'' at the time of its design and launch was, by and far, the most luxurious ship for a Klingon warrior to serve on according to Klingon societal norms. The ''Negh'Var'' is impressively large with a lot of accommodating space within, but it also regularly boasts a total complement including crew and troops of roughly 2,500 warriors. This translates to many lower-ranking troops finding their accommodations not much different than on a [[B'rel Class|''B'rel''-class]] Bird-of-Prey with cramped, spartan, bunk-like quarters. Larger, single rooms are reserved for officers and the most accommodating rooms are left for the ship's senior staff, guests, diplomats, and members of the [[ma:Klingon High Council|Klingon High Council]]. However, there are several creature comforts that, by Klingon standards, would make the ''Negh'Var'' luxurious such as several dining halls, multiple holodecks, and a large Great Hall in the belly of the ship which is capable of accommodating hundreds of crew at once.
The station houses a multi-level business district, Promenade. This area is positioned just below the docking ring and contains a assortment of businesses able fulfill even of the pickiest of shoppers. Often referred to as a city within a city, the Promenade District features some of the best shopping and eating establishments in the galaxy.


==Class History==
====Club 504====
Shortly before the successful deployment of the ''Vor'cha''-class cruiser in 2367, the Romulan Star Empire emerged from its half a century of isolation in their mighty ''D'deridex''-class warbirds. The size and firepower of these newly discovered Romulan vessels worried the Klingon High Council enough that the ''Vor'cha'' may be insufficient. As a result, Chancellor [[ma:Gowron|Gowron]] ordered the development of a new warship in secret that could rival the ''D'deridex''-class and, in truth, also the once-enemy-turned-ally Federation's equally impressive [[Galaxy Class|''Galaxy''-class]] starships in combat.
[[File:Gencraft image 1710272599935-1.png|thumb|alt=|left|200x200px]]


Over the next few years the ''Negh'Var'' underwent development and construction at the highly secure fleet yards located at [[ma:Ty'Gokor|Ty'Gokor]]. Over its development, Chancellor Gowron became less suspicious of the Federation and increasingly sought out their assistance in its development.


By 2371, the prototype, the IKS ''Negh'Var'', was ready for launch and was deployed as the flagship of the Klingon Empire. A year later, several other ''Negh'Var''-class ships were put into production with expectation being that the Klingon ship yards would be able to produce several of these vessels per year. The first real test for the class came a year later in 2372 when the IKS ''Negh'Var'' herself, now under the command of General [[ma:Martok|Martok]] served as the Klingon flagship during the [[ma:Klingon-Cardassian_War|Klingon Empire's invasion of Cardassia]]. This included the [[ma:First_Battle_of_Deep_Space_9|siege]] of [[ma:Deep_Space_9|Deep Space 9]], in which the ''Negh'Var's'' incredibly powerful seige disruptors were first seen in action by the Federation. The siege disruptors proved powerful enough to breach the station's shields sufficiently enough to begin mass transport of Klingon ground troops onto the station.


By the time full hostilities broke out between the [[Dominion]] and the Federation-Klingon-Romulan Alliance, several ''Negh'Var''-class warships were in full service. Serving as command and control flagships during the Dominion War, the ''Negh'Var'' proved more than capable of holding their own against anything the Dominion was throwing at the Klingons. While the older, less advanced Klingon designs were falling in great numbers, the ''Negh'Var'' was able to break through Dominion lines in engagements. However, throughout the war, the Klingons were only able to produce five ''Negh'Var''-class ships before the war ended meaning that while impactful, they weren't able to end the war with any expediency on their own.

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.


After the war, the ''Negh'Var'' continued to serve as the flagship of the Klingon Empire. The class was produced by all of the Great Houses in the effort put forth by the Klingon Defense Force to rebuild the Klingon fleet. The ''Negh'Var'' continued to serve in its capacity as a flagship and strike fear into enemies well into the waning years of the 24th century. In the beginning years of the 25th century, the ''Negh'Var'' is still a formidable capital ship in the Klingon fleet. Only in recent years has it begun to be supplanted by the much bigger ''Bortasqu' ''-class vessels. However, the deployment of the ''Bortasqu' '' has not slowed down the building efforts of the ''Negh'Var'' as a ship that appears to be a mainstay in most House fleets as well as the Klingon Defense Force overall.
