Relay Station CR-718 is a ''Marconi''-class subspace communications relay and hub station intended for 2nd-tier communications trunkline usage as well as sector communications coordination. CR-718 is placed on the [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]] side of the [[Badlands]] to serve the coreward regions of the Bajor Sector not served by the communications hub within the Bajor system itself. The station also serves as the first station in the relay chain installed across the Badlands to provide constant near-realtime communications with Deep Space 47. CR-718's increased transmission power and sensitive receiver array allowed for materials savings of 2 whole unmanned arrays across the badlands, greatly reducing maintenance requirements as well for the teams responsible for ensuring the Badlands Chain is operational with a 99% uptime expectation.

Prior to the collapse of the Star Empire of Rator and the Romulan Star Empire before it, Daloon IV was a sleepy world within the Empire's borders. A sizable population of a few hundred million for the most part have survived the ebb and flow of history over the centuries by simply being mostly forgettable in the grand scheme of things.
 
No critically important mineral resources, slightly above average agricultural output, respectable but not leading edge education facilities - all things that conspired to keep Daloon a worthy prize, but not at the forefront of anyone's strategic thinking. No senators of conquering heroes ever hailed from Daloon, nor particularly well-off families on the scale of those that pulled the strings of the Empire. Daloon was big enough to avoid serving the Empire, but not being enough to be served by the Empire.


The '''USS ''Dvorak''''' serves as a [[Springfield Class|''Springfield''-class]] science vessel assigned to [[Fourth Fleet]]. With a crew complement of two hundred, and the largest distribution of them science officers, the USS ''Dvorak'' operates as a mobile research platform. The ship’s mission module has been configured for the social sciences — specializing in mission of archaeology and anthropology.  As a purpose-built science ship, the ''Springfield''-class’ specialized laboratories are available for nearly every scientific sub-division, each of them conducting independent research beyond the ship’s primary missions. Constructed in the expansive heydays of the mid-24th century, the ''Dvorak'' is a ship designed for comfort, maintaining its retro-resort aesthetic in carpeted surfaces and natural woods. The crew culture matches the interiors: as a whole, they tend to respect whomever has the most published articles, rather than who wears the most rank pips.
Rulership of Daloon was handled by an Imperial Magistrate, appointed by the Senate with the recommendation of the outgoing magistrate and typically handled as 'business as usual'. The last three centuries saw the position of magistrate fall into the hands of a local patrician family, the L'rilt family, maintaining power through a careful mixture of well-managed government, grooming capable successors and seeing less-desirable heirs sent off to do their duty to the Empire and hopefully discover a life for themselves in the more metropolitan centres.


===Design and Layout===
===Fall of the Rator Empire===


====Bridge====
===Current Poilitical Situation===
Because the crown jewels of the USS ''Dvorak'' are its science laboratories, this ship's utilitarian bridge configuration would be seen more commonly as a battle bridge aboard other starships of its generation. This bridge module allows for deck one to contain a larger observation lounge, head, captain's ready room, and a laboratory off the bridge.
Daloon IV has entered a brave new political era, free of the Star Empire of Romulus or Rator. With the recent ratification by the People's Assembly of the '''Founding Principals and Actions Declaration''' (FPAD), serving as the first of Daloon's principal governmental documents, Daloon IV has started the process of crafting its own governmental regime. The Declaration, while not a full constitution, was drafted to allow the newly formed government to form certain political offices and set the guidelines that are dictating the processes for follow-up documents.


The captain sits alone in the centre seat. The two seated consoles ahead of the captain's chair are configured for Science I and Flight Control. Ringing the stern of the bridge are four freestanding LCARS consoles, facing the viewscreen. Clockwise, the stations are configured as Engineering/Operations, Tactical, Mission Ops, and Science II.
Reaching an accord between two of the larger political groups, Daloon IV has adopted a co-governance model between the old magisterial family, elevated to the newly formed position of Princeps, and a popularly elected official who also carries the title of Princeps for a period of six local years (7.5 Standard Years). The latter is commonly referred to as the People's Princeps by Daloon's fledgling media services at this time. By the terms set in the FPAD, both Princeps are equal in rank and authority, with a veto from either enough to end a piece of legislation without a supermajority of the newly formed Senate to override. A veto from both requires a unanimous Senate vote followed by a majority plebiscite to overrule.


====Engineering====
While the Principes form the Heads of State, the FPAD lays out provisions for a Head of Government to arise from the Senate. This position, the Secretary-General, is charged with the day-to-day running of the government and answers to the Principes in all matters currently.
Powered by an older-style warp core than those of its generation, the Springfield-class warp core is mounted horizontally in the underslung engineering hull on deck 14.


====Mission Module====
{| class="wikitable" style="width: 600px; margin: auto;"
Located on the aft dorsal section of the ship, the mission module is secured between the nacelles and above the shuttlebay.  The pod contains two decks of specialised archaeology and anthropology laboratories, equipment and storage.  Equipment includes facilities to fabricate novel probes and a dedicated mission computer core, operating with bioneural processing.

|}


On the upper deck of the mission module, the archaeology lab offers teaming and individual LCARS consoles, specialised scanner equipment, a thermoluminescence chamber, and storage areas for scientific observation and experimentation in the field of archaeology.
While eschewing joining the Romulan Republic at this time, the largest and most stable of the interstellar powers nearby, Daloon has entered into a cautious close association agreement with the Republic. Republic vessels are free to visit and a small resupply station has been allowed to be constructed in orbit though construction has yet to begin. The number of visiting ships is also a contested point in Daloon-Republic relations while Daloon seeks to modernise the planetary defences that Starfleet brought online recently.


===Operational History===
Daloon's own industrial and agricultural base does allow it some leeway in building a platform of influence amongst its neighbours, especially those still outside of the Republic. While more conservative groups may wish to focus purely on Daloon's own needs and wants, radical and forward-thinking elements of the government, including both Principes, are not blind to the possibility of 'building the peace' by helping out their neighbours in an effort to build a bubble around Daloon and perhaps make it a logical regional centre should Daloon ever join the Republic. At a minimum local stability and curtailing the rise of malcontents is a desired goal for Daloon's own security concerns.


====Launch====
With both Starfleet and Republic assistance, Daloon has purchased a number of small craft to assist in planetary defence and trade protection. The newly formed Daloon Guard incorporates elements of the planet's previous garrison and guard forces and is supplemented currently by advisors from both the Republic and Starfleet.
USS ''Dvorak'' was launched in 2352, on Stardate 29411.2, upon its construction in the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards on Mars.  


====2398-2399====
{{clear}}
USS ''Dvorak'' underwent its fifth refit and shakedown, under the command of long-time Captain Aloysius Sefton and newly promoted Executive Officer Commander [[bfms_char:50958/|Elbon Jakkelb]].  ''Dvorak'''s shakedown was Sefton's final mission before retirement.

==Ayer's Rock==
At the dawn of 2400, USS ''Dvorak'' was diverted from its shakedown cruise to support humanitarian efforts during the [[Century Storm]].  In the aftermath of the Century Storm, Commander [[bfms_char:48362/|Taes]] was assigned to ''Dvorak'' as a Senior Mission Officer.  ''Dvorak'''s mission module was staffed with a team of archaeologists from [[Starbase 72]], serving as the first responders to the Trill colony of New Tenar.

}}'''Ayer's Rock''' is a marginally habitable M-class world on the Federation-Klingon border in the Archanis sector. Its proximity to the Klingon border and centuries of volatile relations with the Klingon Empire have worked consistently to keep the world of Ayer's Rock off of any lists for terraforming projects and intense migration, much to the satisfaction of the inhabitants of this world.


As first responders, Taes' team conducted the death scene investigations of any citizens who were left behind by Starfleet's evacuation of the planet during the ion storms.  While the medical officers confirmed cause of death, the archaeologists investigated the social and structural vulnerabilities that may have contributed to exactly who had died during the evacuation, and why they had died, rather than the thousands of others who escaped.
Settled by people wanting a more 'down to earth' existence, Ayer's Rock mostly eschews the trappings of modern technologies, its citizenry preferring to mostly stick with wind, water and muscle power for their day-to-day lives. What limited modern technology does exist on the world is primarily related to the limited healthcare system the singular subspace transceiver used to keep appraised of local interstellar matters that could impact life on Ayer's Rock.


Following the death scene investigations, Commander Taes’ team completed an archaeological study of the city to identify heritage sites of historical and cultural importance. Although there were some irregularities in the chain of custody in some of the data, the archaeology team identified the heritage sites in need of preservation and restoration, when the government of New Tenar rebuilds Vrans City.
===Landing===
The capital of Ayer's Rock is the township of Landing, named like so many other planetary capitals across the Federation for being the spot where the first colonists set down upon arriving at their chosen destination. Landing looks like it could be lifted out of any Wild West drama with its wooden buildings, dusty main street and the constant presence of horses as the primary means of conveyance. While considered to be the planetary capital, for most of the population spread around Ayer's Rock it is just as distant as the Federation is from their daily lives.

Upon the completion of ''Dvorak'''s shakedown cruise, Starfleet Command named Captain [[bfms_char:48362|Taes]] the commanding officer of the science ship ''Dvorak''.  In her maiden voyage, Captain Taes investigated the looting of an archaeological site on Camus II by [[True Way]] pirates.  Following a trip to the planet’s surface, the crew’s mission was jeoparized when Captain Taes returned to ''Dvorak'' as a changed woman. (And she wasn't the the only one.)  The entire away team were body swapped by ancient and dangerous technology in disrepair.  Only through studying the previous archaeological surveys completed by Starfleet and investigating the technology further were Captain Taes and Lieutenant [[bfms_char:48429|Yuulik]] able to return the away team to their own bodies.
