The '''''Elysion''-class light explorer''' is a vessel born as a complement to, and deriving much of its design from, the [[Century Class|''Century''-class]]. The ''Elysion'' was designed to do exactly what the ''Century'' did at the capital range, but for in cruiser-sized form factor. ''Elysion''-class ships are among the most advanced medium-sized ships currently in service.
+
The '''USS ''Oroville''''' is a [[California class|''California''-class utility cruiser]] assigned to [[Task Force 17]]. It is currently under the command of [[bfms char:101317|Commander Daniel Ramirez]].
===Exploration and Science===
 
The ''Elysion'' is a direct descendant of the ''Century''-class design lineage; with that, the ''Elysion'' is a powerhouse of exploration. While a derived directly from the ''Century'', the ''Elysion'' shares many features with the [[Intrepid Class|''Intrepid'' class]] when it comes to matters of exploration. Like the ''Intrepid'', the ''Elysion'' is small, but capable. She boasts numerous science labs for any variety of scientific endeavors and specialists in all scientific disciplines on board to fill those labs. The ''Elysion'' may not be able to compete with the ''Century'' in the volume of science and exploration it can complete at once, but in technical ability, it is a dead-even match.
 
  
===Diplomacy===
+
==History==
Although from the same design lineage as the ''Century'', the ''Elysion'' is much more severely limited in its diplomatic capacity than its larger sister. The ''Elysion'' has a secondary purpose of diplomatic duties, but like its scientific abilities, it is limited by its own size. Much like the ''Intrepid'', the ''Elysion''’s size limits it to only specific diplomatic functions which it carries out at a standard above most other Starfleet vessels. Examples of appropriate diplomatic assignments for a ship of this class include first contact scenarios and transporting dignitaries.
+
The ''USS Oroville'' boasts a proud history within Starfleet marked by exploration, scientific discovery, and diplomacy. Launched in the late 24th century, the Oroville quickly established itself as a versatile vessel, adept at navigating the vast and often unpredictable frontier of space. Its early years were spent on shakedown cruises and various missions that tested and proved its capabilities, laying a strong foundation for its operational career.
  
===Engineering===
+
Under the command of its initial captains the ''USS Oroville'' embarked on missions that spanned the spectrum of Starfleet's core missions. It charted new territories, engaged in first contact with previously unknown species, and contributed valuable scientific knowledge through the study of cosmic phenomena. The ship also played a key role in humanitarian efforts and diplomatic negotiations, fostering peace and aiding those in need across the galaxy.
The ''Elysion'' class is the design and engineering culmination of the proven worthiness of the ''Century''-class spaceframe. The ''Elysion'' derives much of its design, both internal and external, to Starfleet taking the ''Century'' space frame and making it smaller, easier and quicker to build, and more resource-friendly. Many of her systems were also tested first aboard the much smaller ''Rhode Island''-class scout.
 
  
Like its larger sister, the ''Elysion'' sports the latest in technology including the second generation of bio-neural circuitry first fielded on the Century, holographic projectors throughout the entirety of the ship, ablative armor, the vetted [[Warp drive#Class-9 Warp Drive|class-9 warp drive]] developed for the ''Intrepid''. Like the ''Century'', the ''Elysion'' also includes highly advanced automation systems for many of the systems of the ship which required less crew to control them and an equally advanced vocal command interface that would allow a single person to command the ship if necessary.

<!--Please do not delete the Notable Crew section. It is used by the Intel Office for command history tracking.-->
The Elysion is officially classified as a light explorer, and is armed accordingly. The ship boasts an impressive tactical loadout, but much like all its other capabilities is limited by its size. The [[Phaser#Type-XII Phaser Array|Type-XII phaser arrays]] give nearly full coverage of the ship’s arcs but are severely limited by the ship’s power generation capabilities limiting it to only a fraction of the power available to Type-XII arrays mounted on the fleet's larger explorers. The ''Elysion'' also uses the same burst fire torpedo launchers as the Century, but has a much smaller overall payload. Overall, the ''Elysion'' could tactically be more comparable to the ''Intrepid'', but is more than capable to hang around in a fight than its “light explorer” designation would indicate.

===Shipboard Life===
+
{{clear}}
Unlike the oft-compared ''Intrepid'', the ''Elysion'' allows for more comfort aboard ship mostly due to its highly automated systems. This leaves less need for unused crew quarters and more room for crew comforts.
 
 
 
The ship sports the standard crewman-officer-senior officer quarters layout that any Starfleet vessel does. However, it boasts four state-of-the-art holodecks, a crew lounge on par with the ''Galaxy''-class explorer's Ten Forward Lounge, a comprehensive gym facility, and a phaser range. The ship even boasts a modest arboretum; although the arboretum is just as much for research purposes as it is for crew recreation.
 
 
 
==Class History==
 
Although the ''Elysion'' is derived directly from the ''Century''-class design, its inception came years after the ''Century'' launched as a proven platform. As Starfleet Command was shifting more steadily away from the wartime philosophy that dominated the time of the Dominion and Borg threat, the desire for more explorers was at hand. The ''Century'' was birthed from that desire but even with its highly automated systems and much lower crew count than ships of similar size, it was still resource-intensive as a capital ship explorer. Starfleet desired something to share the "light explorer" niche side-by-side with the ''Intrepid''.
 
 
 
The mandate was simple: shrink the Century platform into something smaller, easier to build, and more resource-efficient. However, that proved more difficult than originally anticipated, forcing the designers to make slight changes in the hull configuration. The ''Elysion'' design ended up being relatively similar, but with clear differences in her proportions. The unique deflector on the ''Century'' was also unable to translate to the ''Elysion'', causing a visual difference. Once the prototype was completed, however, the ''Elysion'' was easily in spirit the smaller sister to the ''Century''. Walking the corridors of the ''Elysion'' felt like you were in the Century and her capabilities matched. The first five ''Elysion''-class starships to be built were all tasked with frontier exploration, and are expected to be common sights on the frontier supporting their much larger sister class for decades to come.

*The ''Elysion'' is the every-man's version of the capital ship ''Century''-class. It is a more common command and essentially serves as a newer version of the ''Intrepid''-class.
 
*The ''Elysion''-class is a frontier vessel and will be found far from home. The only time they’d be in core territory is on specific assignment or getting to the frontier.
 
*The ''Elysion'' serves as a prestigious command, but does not require the many years of service that capital ships usually do in order to command them. So a fresh captain could easily command one.
