Missions
Starbase 11
Establish a Federation presence by patrolling the space between the Cardassian and Klingon borders. USS Heracles ended up finding out about a deep corruption; between a Federation Captain Munez and a Vice Admiral Bettencourt. Both ended up being brought up on charges of Treason.
Archanis Operations
USS Heracles is ordered to the Federation-Klingon border in response to a rogue Klingon faction known as “The Hunters of D’Ghor”. USS Heracles responds to a distress beacon on Archanis V, where the local populous was bombarded by a D’Ghor fleet from orbit. While on the surface the USS Heracles is assaulted by a smaller fleet, three Birds-of-Prey, of D’Ghor ships, one of which is commanded by a Captain who called herself Klothost K'gox, and the ship was called Khoshtom. The assault on the Heracles forces the ship to flee to Deep Space K-7 while the ship’s Captain, Vausees Vax, and an away team led by her are stranded on the surface. This places Lieutenant Commander Trever Neif in command of the Heracles and makes him the Acting Captian.
During the time that Vausees and the away team are stranded, they find the survivors from the colony, led by a woman named Sara. Later the away team and the survivors are assaulted by a D’Ghor ground force that has transported to the surface, while the away team and the survivors are held up in a building. Vausees and the away team, support Sara and the remaining survivors by fighting the D'Ghor from the rooftop. Vausees and Zyvia headed down to the second floor of the building. While defending the second floor from the D'Ghor a lone Klingon announced himself to be the Commander of the ground forces and a Captain for the Hunters of D'Ghor, named Atsak Runtoh of house Runtoh. The Klingon Captain gives Vausees an ultimatum to leave without further assault from the D'Ghor ground forces. Vausees declines, and a short time later the Klingon Captain is transported off the planet after Vausees warned him, with a phaser rifle bolt into the ground at his feet.
