==Objectives ==
+
The '''USS ''Jaxartes''''' is a ''Raven''-class multi-mission light starship.
*'''Manage''' Starfleet’s border defense and counterinsurgency operations.
 
*'''Monitor''' criminal organizations operating within the Triangle region.
 
*'''Develop''' relationships with local governments and communities.
 
*'''Assist''' those local governments to push back against criminal elements already established and prevent footholds being established.
 
  
==Overview==
+
=== Missions ===
Following the synth attack on Mars in 2385, the Federation consolidated her borders and pulled back on her exploratory missions to focus on protecting Federation worlds and citizens.  This action caused power vacuums to arise in several areas, allowing criminal organizations to fill those vacuums.
+
'''Start-Up Problems''' - '''2393'''
  
Operating out of a Starbase on the edge of the [[Azure Nebula]], Task Force 86 is charged with border defense and counterinsurgency operations throughout the Federation.  From its Headquarters on [[Starbase 86]], the Task Force manages and co-ordinates patrols of the Federation’s borders with her neighbors and responds to incursions, monitors criminal activity within Federation space, works with local governments and communities to push back against and disrupt that criminal activity.
+
A new batch of Ensigns gets assigned to the Raven-class vessel named USS Jaxartes. Their mission is to expand further exploration of the Typhon Frontier in areas that Starfleet designates as safe zones. Ensign Praugol, assigned to the USS Jaxartes as its designated Captain, finds itself with a ship half-ready for the long journey. She has to get the crew, the supplies, and the ship working again as Starfleet was on a tied budget when this was approved.
  
One particular area of concern for the Federation is The Triangle, an unaligned region between the borders of the Federation, the Romulan Republic and the Klingon Empire. The Triangle has always been a hotbed of criminal activity but the Federation’s shift in focus over the past fifteen years allowed several criminal groups to expand their operations and threaten the stability of worlds throughout the Federation.

=== Ship's Tour ===
 +
====Captain's Ready Room====
 +
The Captain's Ready Room, also known as the briefing room, can be found on deck two behind the bridge because the size of the [[Raven Class]] is a relatively small briefing room. In addition, it is located in the middle of the ship, meaning it has no outside view. However, Ensign Valerio installed a holographic window that gives a real-time exterior view. Ensign Valerio gave it as a birthday gift to his Captain. In addition, the ship has some plants that contribute to the liveliness of the room.  
  
==Task Force Assets and Headquarters==
+
The Captain's desk stands on the right side against the wall when entering the briefing room. It looks like a handcrafted table with the color of walnut brown, and it has grain patrons onto the wood to give uniqueness to the desk itself. The desk has two side drawers and a center drawer with a built-in holographic keyboard. When the center drawer is pulled out, the keyboard activates.
With the Triangle a particular area of interest to Task Force 86 and its remit, headquarters along with flagship [[USS Majestic|USS ''Majestic'']] are located near the border at [[Starbase 86]]. A smaller outpost, it provides support and resupply to Starfleet vessels heading to the chaotic, unclaimed region, and for many, is the last stop before the end of civilization.
 
  
=== Task Force Composition ===
+
On the desk, you will find a group picture of Ensign Praugol and her academy class of 2392. Some scientific accessories such as a Vulcan Dust Globe, a planet mug that shows Federation Founders' planets, and when heated, it offers more astronomic details of those planets. On the side, a Newton Cradle Balance stands that keeps ticking. On the wall, you will find the screen and on its sides two posters that can be changed to any galaxy or star system. Most of the accessories on the desk are there as presents for Sazra, though in her fair opinion, they should have a function, or they shouldn't belong on the desk at all.

==Task Force History==
+
====Main Engineering====
Task Force 86 has had along and illustrious career as one of the longest serving Task Forces in the Fourth Fleet's history. In 2399, when Starfleet tasked the Fourth Fleet to return to space they also knew it was vitally important that their backyard was watched just as much what laid beyond. As a result, Task Force 86 was designated with the task of border patrol and security. One area that had become a further hotbed of criminal insurgency since the Attack on Mars was around the Azure Nebula in the region known as the [[The Triangle]]. Task Force 86 was assigned to setup its headquarters in this region as a starting point.

From deck 1 to 3 you will find in the middle of the ship the heart of all its power, the main engineering. When entering the engineering, you will hear the humming and buzzing sound of the warp-core, like a purring little kitty. Within the engineering, you will find various tools and monitoring console to keep the flow of energy in control. Most of the ship had to be rebuilt, and the engineering was no exception from it, so even thought it is an aged ship that has seen quite a bit it has newer equipment.
  
===The Archanis Campaign ===

===Notable Crew===
Task Force 86's mandate was put to the test in 2399 when the [[Archanis Sector]] was attacked by the [[Hunters of D'Ghor]]. The Fourth Fleet sent a large presence into the sector to defend the border and remove the threat to the Federation colonists and other important assets. Along with other task forces, starships from Task Force 86 responding immediately to the invasion and were able to eventually push the rogue faction out of Federation territory. Working in tandem with other ships, the border was eventually secured from further raids by the Hunters, however the clean-up operation would require a lot of effort. While [[Task Force 93]] led on helping with repairs, rebuilding and recovery operations among the Federation colonies, it would be Task Force 86 that would be required to ensure the border was secure. Thanks to help from [[Task Force 17]], who had built a brand new sensor array near to the border, Task Force 86 were able to monitor and defend the border from any further attacks. After several months of heavy patrolling and the installment of new defense grids (or upgrades to existing ones), Task Force 86 was able to pull some of its forces from the area after it appeared that the tension along the border had returned to the status quo.

=== The Echoes of the Tkon===
+
{{clear}}
During the end of 2399, every single ship across Starfleet was placed on high alert after multiple sightings of the [[Omega molecule]] were reported. Task Force 86 was given the simple order: secure the border. During this crisis, it was vitally important for the Federation's territory to be defended. Orders were issued to all Task Force 86 ships and bases to patrol various borders, in the event local neighbors decided to take advantage of the situation. Captains were ordered to do whatever it took to ensure Federation security was maintained, such a harsh approach was a surprise to many crews however when it came apparent that Omega was a genuine threat across the entire galaxy, it was down to Task Force 86 to maintain order and prevent chaos from creeping into Federation space. Along with patrols, Task Force 86 ships provided escort to convoys of ships evacuating from affected areas or responded to those who needed help.
 
 
 
===The Stormbreaker Campaign ===
 
In early 2400, the [[Century Storm]] hit the [[ma:Paulson Nebula|Paulson Nebula]] and the surrounding region. This phenomenon severely affected those ships, stations and colonies that existed in this area, causing huge disruption to communication and placing lives on the line. To prevent millions from being killed, the Federation government ordered an immediate evacuation of the area. Elements from Task Force 86 responded to the distress calls of those in need but also aided in preventing criminal organizations from taking advantage of the innocent who were attempting to flee affected areas.
 
 
 
====Sundered Wings====
 
Having so many ships and stations based near to the shared border with the Romulans, Task Force 86 found itself once again having to monitor the border and prevent local crime syndicates from interfering when the [[Star Empire of Rator]] collapsed and the [[Velorum Sector]] declared its independence before seeking assistance from the Federation. This massive political upheaval caused a high level of tension between the Federation and the various Romulan Factions. Task Force 86 ships were ordered to track any ships crossing the border and causing more strife that was not needed.  Those ships involved prevent some pirate ships from launching raids against civilian targets and halting any Romulan warlords from gaining resources from the black market. The Velorum Sector eventually opted to join the Romulan Republic once a majority of their worlds were stabilized, thanks to the efforts of Starfleet and a meditated deal led by the Federation.

The USS Jaxartes is a Raven-class multi-mission light starship.

Missions

Start-Up Problems - 2393

A new batch of Ensigns gets assigned to the Raven-class vessel named USS Jaxartes. Their mission is to expand further exploration of the Typhon Frontier in areas that Starfleet designates as safe zones. Ensign Praugol, assigned to the USS Jaxartes as its designated Captain, finds itself with a ship half-ready for the long journey. She has to get the crew, the supplies, and the ship working again as Starfleet was on a tied budget when this was approved.

Ship's Tour

Captain's Ready Room

The Captain's Ready Room, also known as the briefing room, can be found on deck two behind the bridge because the size of the Raven Class is a relatively small briefing room. In addition, it is located in the middle of the ship, meaning it has no outside view. However, Ensign Valerio installed a holographic window that gives a real-time exterior view. Ensign Valerio gave it as a birthday gift to his Captain. In addition, the ship has some plants that contribute to the liveliness of the room.

The Captain's desk stands on the right side against the wall when entering the briefing room. It looks like a handcrafted table with the color of walnut brown, and it has grain patrons onto the wood to give uniqueness to the desk itself. The desk has two side drawers and a center drawer with a built-in holographic keyboard. When the center drawer is pulled out, the keyboard activates.

On the desk, you will find a group picture of Ensign Praugol and her academy class of 2392. Some scientific accessories such as a Vulcan Dust Globe, a planet mug that shows Federation Founders' planets, and when heated, it offers more astronomic details of those planets. On the side, a Newton Cradle Balance stands that keeps ticking. On the wall, you will find the screen and on its sides two posters that can be changed to any galaxy or star system. Most of the accessories on the desk are there as presents for Sazra, though in her fair opinion, they should have a function, or they shouldn't belong on the desk at all.

Praugol receives guests in the Briefing Room on her brown couch. She will sit most of the time in her desk chair and turns around to the guest to begin their conversation. A small round table between them can be used for drinks or for placing some PADDs.

The Observation Lounge

At the back of the ship, you will find the Observation Lounge on deck 2. When entering through a small door on the far right side (when coming from the bridge), you will see a long light-brown oak table on the left side, shaped in a stretch-out circle. The chairs are custom designed to those you will find in most Starfleet vessels. However, these chairs are also the same soft color as the table. In the middle of the table, you will find a holographic 3D device that can project any ship, planet, or astronomical object shown during a mission briefing.

On the wall, there are paintings of various famous exploration ships. One of those is the USS Enterprise. On the other side, you will find big windows that show the back of the ship and a great view of space itself. It is said that Ensign T'path was mostly found here, as it brought her calmness while practicing her Vulcan meditation. While on the floor before the window, you will find a classic earth-designed carpet with that dark red color.

Back at the entree on the right, you will find a corner for one person to sit and relax. Dr. Ruslanovna has the hobby of creating something of every mission in the form of a beautiful painting. It is in this corner that these small paintings are hanging.

Main Engineering

From deck 1 to 3 you will find in the middle of the ship the heart of all its power, the main engineering. When entering the engineering, you will hear the humming and buzzing sound of the warp-core, like a purring little kitty. Within the engineering, you will find various tools and monitoring console to keep the flow of energy in control. Most of the ship had to be rebuilt, and the engineering was no exception from it, so even thought it is an aged ship that has seen quite a bit it has newer equipment.
