==Notable Crew==
The Agora is a state of the art diplomatic and conference centre located in the refitted 'battle module' of Helios, an attempt at Starfleet Command to highlight the peaceful intentions of the new age of exploration. At the cost of some of its torpedo capabilities the module has seen the addition of a large complex of diplomatic suites, each modelled after famous diplomats, a number of multi-function conference and meeting places in addition to a cadre of talented officers from the Federation Diplomatic corps. Throughout the complex holographic generators and advanced environmental systems are able to adapt the suites to cater for a wide variety of needs, allowing diplomatic meetings, conferences and summits to take place aboard the vessel, surrounded by glorious views of the cosmos at every turn.

At the centre of the complex is the main offices of the Diplomatic detachment and the high capacity transporter that connects the module with the rest of the vessel. Travel to and from the module is generally free to all crew-members of any rank, as the suites & multi-function rooms are often used as practice rooms and bookable spaces for the wide variety of shipboard activates.

==== Aspasia Suite ====
 
 
 
==== Kor Suite ====
 
Inspired by the vaulted ceilings and dramatic statement architecture of the Klingon Hill Council chambers the Kor suite is perfect for channelling the particular spirit of Klingon Diplomacy. Named after the famed Dahar Master and diplomat who served the Empire for over a century, the Kor suite is a grand function room designed for diplomatic functions that require a certain level of dramatic flair. Attached to the main conference room is a small amphitheatre, whose intimate acoustics were designed by the renowned Ferengi composer Jeere Goold; a perfect stage for entertaining and facilitating more private discussions.
 
 
 
In keeping with Captain Tanek's insistence that all facilities are multi-use outside of mission operations , the various music and live performance groups of Helios have made the Kor suite their home away from home, making use of it's particularly beneficial acoustic design. The additional musical underscore has become a permanent feature of the Agora, much to the pleasure of the Diplomatic Corps.
 
 
 
==== Soval Suite ====

Named after the famed Vulcan diplomat and Ambassador to the burgeoning United Earth in the 22nd Century, the Soval suite models itself after the open meeting places of Vulcan where philosophers, scientists and ley persons met to discuss the topics of the day. In this suite the holographic capabilities of The Agora are used to full effect with the warm dry environment seeming to disappear into the distance, instilling the peace and calm of the Vulcan homeworld into all discussions.
 
 
 
When not in use for Mission Operations this suite also hosts the twice-weekly meeting of the vessel's hot yoga and meditation group, as well as being the venue for the monthly stargazing club whose bring and share BBQ has become a staple in the ship's calendar.

USS Vallejo (NCC-75586) is a California-class Federation starship currently assigned to Fourth Fleet's Task Force 47. She is currently under the command of Commander Day Renora.

Launched Stardate 45703.1 (14 Sep 2368), the Vallejo served under several capable commanders. However, after years of distinguished service, the ship was decommissioned and mothballed in 2396 due to changing fleet requirements and modernization initiatives.

Mothball Period: 2396-2401

In 2401, following the shocking Borg attack during Frontier Day celebrations and the infiltration by Changelings, Starfleet faced a dire need for experienced vessels.  The Borg attack and Changeling infiltration shook Starfleet to its core. Many experienced officers were lost or compromised, and the majority of the fleet suffered damage, leaving a leadership vacuum.

The 33-year-old Vallejo was recommissioned after a thorough refit to make her space worthy once again and put back into service, focusing on the Pathfinding Operations of Task Force 47 of the Fourth Fleet, and supporting Task Group 13 in utility functions, supply missions, and diplomatic endeavors throughout the region.  Led by her new Captain, Commander Day Renora, and her untested crew, the Vallejo moves into the sector to begin her assignment. Captain Day is the seventh officer to command the vessel and has a legacy of service to the fleet to live up to.

Configuration

Main Article: California-Class Utility Cruiser

The Vallejo employs the standard California-Class configuration used during its production in 2368. One notable exception is decks one and two. The bridge of the USS Vallejo was heavily modified during her 2401 refit, having lost most of her original first two decks due to damage from a plasma storm. Most components were taken from the USS T'Varra, an early Nebula-Class vessel mothballed at Providence Fleet Yards.

Typical of Starfleet vessels of that era, the bridge features a central command seating area featuring chairs for the captain, executive officer, and one other officer as missions dictate. Forward of the command area are found stations for the tactical on the starboard, and science on the port side of the bridge. Forward of those stations are found stations for the conn officer on the starboard, and operations officer on the port side.

Directly behind the command area is one large auxiliary station that can serve multiple officers as needed. At the rear of the bridge lies two standing stations, engineering on starboard, and an auxiliary tactical/security port. The aft center of the bridge is dominated by a master systems display, and fore by a standard viewscreen. Additional standing stations including mission ops, environmental controls, and replicators are recessed port and starboard.
