| }}'''Commodore Aben Ch'Thobar''' is the current commanding officer of [[Deep Space 47]] within the [[Thomar Expanse]]. His early career within Starfleet started in the sciences before a change to the command division placing him in command of a series of science vessels responsible for a series of discoveries and two separate first-contact situations. After years of commanding starships, most recently the USS ''Vesher Sh'Trak'', Ch'Thobar accepted command of [[Deep Space 47]], a chance to sit at the gateway of new discoveries.

| |
| ===Flag Officer (2400-Present)===
| |
| Having resisted promotion to flag rank for the better part of a decade and a half, Ch'Thobar finally conceded the point in 2400 due to the combined efforts of Command and his wife, who wanted her husband to slow down in his later years.
| |
|
| |
| ====Deep Space 47 (2400-Present)====
| |
| While accepting a flag posting removed Ch'Thobar from the centre seat of his own starship command, he only accepted on the condition of taking command of [[Fourth Fleet|Fourth Fleet's]] newest starbase, [[Deep Space 47]]. His reasoning was rather unsubtle but acceptable to all parties - while he might not be actively exploring himself, he was positioned to sit at the gate way between the Federation and the [[Thomar Expanse]], giving him a chance to glance over all discoveries and live vicariously through personal debriefing returning science crews.

| ==Commodore Aben Ch'Thobar In Play==
| |
| *Commodore Aben Ch'Thobar is a [[Task Force 47]] NPC, in command of [[Deep Space 47]] and its immediate surrounds. He can be used in your game when a command-level officer may be needed.
| |
| *The information in this bio is a rough guide only and not completely detailed to allow for vagaries to exist and room for writers to manoeuvre.
| |
| * Ch'Thobar is a level-headed command officer with a keen tactical sense despite having risen through Starfleet's Science divisions. Despite having started as a scientist though, he is not afraid to stand his ground and resist force when required.
| |
| *He prefers to try and make himself an approachable individual but has little tolerance for hypocrisy, laziness or reckless behaviour. His demeanour can go from gentle commander to stereotypical argumentative Andorian at the drop of hat despite years of self-improvement.
| |
| * Typically Ch'Thobar can be located in Station Ops, or his office. Failing that, he commonly likes to tour DS47's science labs in order to live vicariously through the work that passes through his station. A generalist, he holds no particular field of speciality and a decent grasp of most of the sciences.
| |
| *Ch'Thobar speaks in a direct and pointed manner that some might interpret as rude, but is merely a result of years working with others who valued their time as much as he values his own. He prefers to get to the point so that efforts can be made to move on to the next.

| |
|
| |
| '''''Narendra''-class stations''' are a small to mid-size Federation starbase design that draws design inspiration from the likes of the far larger [[Spacedock Class|''Spacedock''-class]] stations. Designed to be assembled at manufacturing facilities within the Federation and then shipped in pieces to their final locations, the ''Narendra'' is essentially a kitset starbase designed for rapid deployment. If parts are in stock and available, a ''Narendra'' can be brought online in a new location in a matter of months, versus the years or decade it may take for a larger facility.
| |
|
| |
| The intention was for a class of starbase to support Federation and Starfleet interests at a minimal cost in border sectors while not appearing as an escalation of assets to Federation neighbours who may take umbrage with a larger, more capable and fortified starbase.
| |
|
| |
| Not without their teething issues upon initial activation, each ''Narendra'' station has contributed to the success of the next station. Upgrades for the first generation are being considered, though this too is likely in the form of kitset compartments being deployed to expedite the work on site.
| |
|
| |
| ==Layout==
| |
|
| |
| [[File:Smolboi construction.png|right|thumb|Narendra-class under construction]]The exterior of a ''Narendra''-class is reminiscent of Starfleet's [[Spacedock Class|''Spacedock''-class]] starbases - a giant mushroom in space. The dorsal and ventral aspects of the station house large antenna farms, allowing the station to act as a regional communications relay and repeater as required. Dedicated shield generators protect the antenna farms from focused attacks.
| |
|
| |
| Designed for forward deployment, the ''Narendra''-class carries a wide variety of defensive screens and weaponry. The surface of the station is dotted with phaser array strips, torpedo launchers and older phaser banks in certain locations to provide focused firepower to dissuade attacks along prescribed vectors.
| |
|
| |
| Due to the size of the station, it is not intended or expected to hold off a dedicated attack, but to dissuade raids and rapid strikes as well as buy enough time for reinforcements to arrive.
| |
|
| |
| The central core of the station houses the primary computer cores as well as truck access for vital services up and down the height of the station. Primary cargo lifts are located here as well to transport materials from the cargo bays to wherever they need to go.
| |
|
| |
| ===Operations===
| |
|
| |
| The topmost levels of the station house the Operations division, as typical simply referred to as Ops. The station's primary command and control functions can be located here as well as offices for the station command staff. Offices and facilities abound for the Starfleet personnel aboard the station to perform their duties. Of note is a large auditorium built into each station, capable of hosting a hundred officers and guests in a single sitting. While a holdover of the original ''Narendra'' design requirements, the auditorium has become standard to the class and can function as a large scale briefing room to concert hall as required.
| |
|
| |
| ===Galleria===
| |
|
| |
| One of the larger sections of the station the Galleria functions as the core of station life and commerce. Spread over multiple levels, with terraces descending down the levels, and wrapped around the station core, no two Galleria's are the same once the stations come online. Vendors and locals alike soon discover that the modular nature of the station is more amenable to modification across the Galleria, by design, and modifications are relatively simple to engage in. Bulkheads in the shopping area can be moved and the terraces shifted with a bit more work.
| |
|
| |
| This tends to result in a quick fashion that each Galleria becomes its own architectural marvel. Restaurants, kiosks, salons, parlours and a variety of shops can and will be found across the Galleria as local enterprises take root. Most tend to be representative of the galactic neighbour they find themselves in, with encouragement to galactic neighbours to take part in order to help build report and economic ties as well as informal diplomatic channels.
| |
|
| |
| ===Sciences===
| |
|
| |
| Each ''Narendra'' hosts an array of research laboratories, as befitting any Starfleet starbase. While not as expansive or well equipped as larger stations, their modular nature does mean that over time they can be readjusted as local conditions may require on a more regular basis. Each station does host a sizable stellar cartography installation, combined with the station's long-range sensors and telescopes, to help map new regions and collate information from nearby starships.
| |
|
| |
| This area of the station does contain its own communication center for coordinating scientific endeavours, backup computer cores, small lecture halls and secure storage facilities.
| |
|
| |
| ===Personnel Quarters===
| |
|
| |
| Spread across multiple levels is the station's living quarters. Containing hundreds of single-, double-, and family-sized occupancy quarters as well as a handful of diplomatic suites. Recreation centres, game rooms, holosuites and a small selection of eateries, typically franchises from those found on the Galleria, can be located in this section of the station. Occupying a large space in the middle, wrapped around the station's support trunk, lies the station's arboretum, a full forty meters in height.
| |
|
| |
| ===Medical===
| |
|
| |
| The medical section of the station contains facilities typically greater then more starships, but small and ill-equipped compared to larger stations. Six separate sickbays dominate this section of the station, each equivalent to a large starship, and specialising in its own field of medicine. Counselling offices, wards for a variety of species and isolation facilities accompany cutting edge, at the time of assembly, scientific labs, limited research facilities and cryogenic suspension facilities for cases that can't be resolved on-station.
| |
|
| |
| A triage center lies in the heart of the station, with its own dedicated transporter facility and quick access to the primary sickbays. Each sickbay and the triage center all possess their own EMH, though with programming adjusted for their field of work.
| |
|
| |
| ===Cargo Operations and Hanger Deck===
| |
|
| |
| The midline of the station is a cavernous space split into six main bays, or “wedges,” with reinforced support bulkheads dotted with pressure hatches and forcefield backups that enable any of the six wedges to be isolated from the others as needed. The internal configuration of stationary hatches and pass-throughs could allow a small craft to enter one wedge and exit out the opposite side of the station, though this is rarely encouraged in practice given the extensive traffic in and out of the station.
| |
|
| |
| The available internal volume of the wedges contains significant space for cargo pallets and shipping containers, short-term and long-term repair bays, propellant stores, warp coil stacks, impulse engine spares, and secured armaments facilities for any armed small craft.
| |
|
| |
| ===Engineering Complex===
| |
|
| |
| The Engineering Complex is located below the midpoint of the station and above the fusion generators. Engineering comprises four large levels and is interconnected via turbolifts, jefferies tubes and humble ladders as required. Engineering contains all the essential services for keeping a ''Narendra''-class operational as well as housing backup computer cores and a hardened auxiliary command centre commonly used for damage control but capable of full station control if required.
| |
|
| |
| ===Fusion Generators===
| |
|
| |
| Primary power generation aboard the ''Narendra''-class is achieved by three massive fusion generators located at the bottom of the station. Each generator plant contains four linked fusion reactors that collectively distribute plasma throughout the station. Two of the generator plants are enough to meet the station's power demands which allow for regular rotation in and out of service for maintenance purposes and hardware longevity. Each generation facility can be independently jettisoned from the station in an emergency.

| ==''Narendra''-class stations In-Play==
| |
| *While not the largest or most capable of stations, like the larger [[Canopus_Class|''Canopus'']] or [[Spacedock_Class|''Spacedock'']] facilities, the ''Narendra'' are a comfortable forward deployment designed to support the Federation's interest while not posing as a serious concern to the Federation's neighbours. More than adequate at defending themselves from local raiders or pirates, a serious threat to a ''Narendra'' would best be answered with a fleet garrison until local tensions deescalate.
| |
| *They serve as important border hubs for travel and commerce as well as providing essential services to outbound Starfleet vessels. While capable of providing servicing to Starfleet ships, outside of general maintenance it can best be described as sufficient to return to a more capable facility for proper repairs.
| |
| *Smaller than the ''Canopus'' facilities, a ''Narendra'' has a regular staff of a few thousand, with a capacity for the same again in regular civilian attendance. In an emergency, ''Narendra'' life support systems can accommodate 15000 people, but to call the situation cramped would be accurate.
