| The USS Daradax is a [[Raven Class|''Raven''-class]] Starship build in 2391 following the updating of the older Aerie-class design. Designed to operate with a crew up up to twenty the ship is highly automated and can get by with a few as 5 crew members for long-term missions. | | The '''USS ''Manticore''''' is a [[Manticore Class]] Heavy Escort. Currently under the command of [[bfms_char:17565|Captain Raan Mason]], she is assigned to the [[Fourth Fleet]]'s [[Task Force 93]] and is part of the [[Manticore Squadron]]. Its primary mission is to patrol The Triangle, an unaligned region between the borders of the Federation, the Romulan Republic, and the Klingon Empire. |

| |
|
| === Design and Layout ===
| |
| Designed as a multi-role starship the USS Daradax is fitted with several scientific laboratories and multi-purpose rooms which can be retrofitted to fit with the mission needs.
| |
|
| |
|
| Deck 1 - Houses the ships Deuterium storage tanks, Intermix Monitoring room, Gravitron generators and aft sensory array along with other key ship systems that do not need continual access.
| |
|
| |
|
| Deck 2 - This deck houses the quarters for the command staff (Captain, XO, etc) and guest quarters along with the general living spaces such as the mess hall and observation lounge. Additionally the bridge, briefing room, transporter room, medical facilities, and access to the upper level of engineering are located here. The main airlock for the ship is situated just aft of the bridge.
| | === Configuration === |
| | ''Main Article: [[Manticore Class|''Manticore''-class Heavy Escort]]'' |
|
| |
|
| Deck 3 - Houses space for the remaining crew (if assigned to the ship) in bunks four. In addition to this access to the holodeck, shuttle bay, computer core and engineering facilities, including the impulse control rooms are all on this deck. The main labs for the ship can be found on this deck. Currently these are setup to facilitate astrometrics, planetary sciences along with several general lab facilities.
| | The ''Manticore'' is a ''Manticore''-class Heavy Escort that follows the stock configuration. |
|
| |
|
| Deck 4 - The majority of this deck is taken up by the large cargo bay along with the antimatter tanks and injector. The ventral airlock is also located here which leads to the forward landing leg and escape hatch.
| | ===Notable Crew=== |
|
| |
|
| The design of the ship deviates slightly from other Raven's and Aerie's in several key areas due to the ships previous work as a rapid courier vessel for dignitaries within the federation. The shuttle bay, usually found at the rear of Deck two was shifted to deck three to allow for an observation deck to be installed for use by the crew and to give high-level passengers that it was carrying a room in which they could relax. In addition to this the holodeck which was added takes up space within both decks two and three just behind the warp core and engineering.

Sector Fero Psi is in need of exploration as only long-range sensors, probes, and a brief exploration by the ''USS Centaur'' have been conducted within the region. Her new Commander, the half Orion, half Risian Lieutenant Kirin Tarken has just arrived to take command of the ship. She must use this time to familiarize herself with this class of ship and the limited crew who have been assigned to her.
