In Greek mythology, Achilles was the best of the Greek warriors at Troy ("aristos achaion") and his refusal to enter battle, his fued with his compatriots, and his rage at the death of his companion Patroklos are at the core of the ''Iliad''. Achilles was characterized as much by his speed, skill, and bravery as he was by his ''hubris'' and egotism.<ref>https://www.britannica.com/topic/Achilles-Greek-mythology</ref> A rendering of Achilles and Patroklos forms the crest of  the ''Achilles''<nowiki/>'s seal.

Built at [[Avalon Fleet Yards]], ''Achilles'' was launched in 2401 and placed under the command of Captain Akintoye Okusanya, due to her engineering expertise and experience with Arcturus Squadron. Not long after her launch, ''Achilles'' experienced her baptism of fire at the [[Battle of Farpoint]], where she participated alongside the other vessels of Arcturus Squadron.[https://bravofleet.com/story/82650]

The Lost Fleet

The Independence came under the command of Ramius Vornar in 2389, and was assigned to a formation under the command of Fleet Captain Jericho that eventually became Endeavour Squadron in 2401. This formation took part in the defence of the Deneb Sector against the Dominion Lost Fleet that year, participating in the liberation of the Izar system. During the campaign, it was discovered that Commander Ramius had at some point been replaced by a Changeling infiltrator. The Independence led a key role in the Battle of Izar after the impostor's discovery, bringing reinforcements in at a critical juncture. With the invasion's end, the crew of the Independence were dispersed, and the ship reassigned.
