===USS Excelsior NCC-42037 | Squadron Flagship===
+
Boasting the scientific and exploration capabilities of the famed Galaxy-class in a space frame over half the size, the [https://bravofleet.com/command/68710/ USS ''Intrepid''] was a testbed for many new technologies upon her construction in the early 2370’s. Sleek and maneuverable, ''Intrepid'' was one of the fastest ships in the fleet upon her launch, and the experimental atmospheric landing capability made the ship an important part of Starfleet’s exploration arm. Even now, some thirty years on, she’s still a more than capable explorer.
====Bridge====
 
[[File:Saganbridge.jpg|right|thumb|Main Bridge; command center for the USS ''Excelsior''.]]
 
A reflection of the time period she was created, the [[Excelsior II Class|''Excelsior II''-class']] polished steel, cool metal fixtures and her bridge aesthetics bring back memories of years gone by, her design blending modern technological advancements with the nostalgia of eras long gone. It is a functional, yet aesthetically pleasing facility designed in a similar vein to the rest of the ship. Her greatest feature is a wide-angled window which fills the forward bulkhead. This window has holographic projectors built into the rim, giving it the ability to function as a more traditional viewscreen. It can also be used as an emergency evacuation hatch, with forcefields being lowered until replaced by a large, external bulkhead.
 
  
Dominating the heart of the command center, three command chairs made of red leather sit atop the central platform, colloquially known as the 'Command Deck', surrounded by rails and steps to the lower levels of the bridge. As is tradition, the center seat and its controls are reserved for the commanding officer, or any directly appointed officer in command during her absence. To her right, the executive officer and, to her left, a third seat is generally reserved for the use of the ship's Counsellor, Chief Medical Officer or any official or dignitary the Captain sees fit. All three of the chairs have built-in controls on the armrests, enabling the occupying officers to conduct their duties with unprecedented access to a wide variety of ship systems.
+
The first of a new, fast and highly-capable independent research and exploration starship, the ''Intrepid'' was launched from Earth Station McKinley on 12 January 2371, and continued to serve as a testbed for new technologies, including the Emergency Medical Hologram, until late 2372, shortly before the outbreak of hostilities with the Klingons.
[[File:Saganbridge2.jpg|left|thumb|Red Alert on the USS ''Excelsior''.]]
 
At the foot of the stairs directly ahead (or to the side) of the command deck, the 'Flight Deck' consists of two angled consoles serving as duty stations for operations (port) and flight operations (starboard). A few feet from each, two stand-alone consoles provide auxiliary station access for any purpose required (such as communications, environmental control, mission operations etc). Ascending the stairs on either side of the command deck, the port side bulkhead is home to three large stations dedicated to tactical operations, providing access to the ship's defensive and offensive systems, whilst the starboard bulkhead is dedicated to the various science departments on the ship.
 
[[File:Saganobservation.jpg|right|thumb|Observation Lounge; a meeting place and workspace.]]
 
Aft of the bridge, there are two additional consoles behind the command area designated for medical use (port) and engineering (starboard), allowing the engineer on duty access to the same engineering systems as in main engineering itself, including access to environmental controls, propulsion systems and the warp core. Central to the aft bulkhead, open access is granted to the observation lounge, which is sealable by emergency bulkheads and forcefields.
 
[[File:Saganobservation2.jpg|left|thumb|Observation Lounge; a meeting place and workspace.]]
 
  
====Observation Lounge====
+
===Mission Objectives===
A beautifully designed room, the observation lounge matches the aesthetic of the rest of the ship, with polished alloys and cool metals as the material of choice during construction. The room is dominated by a large table with holographic controls which is particularly useful for briefings and has seating for up to 10 officers. The Captain traditionally sits closest to the wall-mounted display on the starboard bulkhead. There are several shelves with ornaments and models of previous ships called ''Excelsior'', as well as the original [[Excelsior Class|USS ''Excelsior'']] ship plaque. An additional door provides access from the port bulkhead.
+
A multi-purpose starship well into her third decade of service, the ''Intrepid'' has completed a wide variety of tasks and missions assigned to her over the years. Some of her core duties, commensurate with the [[Intrepid Class|''Intrepid''-class]] as a whole, include:
  
The observation lounge operates an open-door policy and, in the absence of a more traditional ready room attached to the bridge, the Captain often uses the observation lounge as a workspace so that they do not have to return to their quarters, where their actual office is located.
+
* Operating autonomously under the command of the commanding officer, providing full capability to execute Federation defensive, cultural, scientific, and explorative policy in deep space or along border territories.
 +
* Replacing aging starships in certain frontline, light exploration duties.
 +
* Providing a platform for extended scientific survey and scouting missions.
 +
* Providing frontline support during times of war or crisis, such as the [[Century Storm]] and [[Blood Dilithium]] situations, and situations diplomatic in nature.
 +
* Serving non-critical functions such as transport of personnel and cargo when necessary, extended aid, and short-range patrol.
  
====Starlight Lounge====
+
=History=
[[File:Starlightlounge.jpg|right|thumb|A beautiful recreational facility used for a variety of occasions.]]
+
==24th Century==
Perhaps the most spacious of all recreational facilities aboard Excelsior, the Starlight Lounge is built across two levels and is the most spacious facility on the ship. With dozens of seating areas across both levels, with varying degrees of comfort and privacy, the room is a constant hive of activity for anyone and everyone aboard the ship. People come to work in a relaxed, but active environment, or they may come to sit and read while people mill about and conduct their business. Food is obtained from several replicators around the room, while bar snacks and beverages are available at the bar which is manned around the clock. The room's most exquisite feature is the large, floor-to-ceiling aquarium tank which is maintained by the science division and houses some thirty different species of marine life.
+
Notable events from ''Intrepid'''s past include;
 +
*serving in the Federation-Klingon war of the 2370's
 +
*being assigned to patrol along the Romulan Neutral Zone in 2375
 +
*serving as part of Battle Group Omega (deployed in sector 1045) to counter the Reman threat in 2379
 +
*being assigned to the Chiron Colonial Convoy in 2382
 +
==25th Century==
 +
Most recently following an extensive refit to key systems, and the installation of a brand new bridge module, command of the ''Intrepid'' fell to a new commanding officer. Now commanded by [[bfms_char:52001|Captain T'Prynn]], a Vulcan with decades of experience, and her trusted right-hand man, [[bfms_char:68737|Commander Giarvar Kauhn]], the young crew of the ''Intrepid'' are seeking a fresh challenge in pastures new after experiencing a tragedy no crew should ever face; the loss of their previous commanding officer. Assigned to the deep space exploration initiative of the [[Fourth Fleet]]’s [[Task Force 17]], and a founding member of [[Prometheus Squadron]], the ''Intrepid'' crew find themselves coming face to face with the mysteries of the [[Typhon Frontier]].
  
===USS Buran NCC-81711 | Squadron Scout Vessel===
+
On Stardate 24011.1, upon the completion of ''Intrepid'''s recent mission, her command team and many of her personnel were drafted for reassignment elsewhere. Captain T'Prynn assumed command of the ''[[USS Venture]]'', whilst Commander Kauhn joined the crew of the ''[[USS Proxima]]''.
====Bridge====
 
Modelled on the successful layout of other small vessels such as the ''Nova'' and ''Saber''-class starships, the bridge of the ''Buran'' has a slightly altered colour scheme and a much-changed console layout across the bridge. Making the most of a variety of technological advancements, such as holoprojectors, holographic communications, in-built weapons lockers and three-dimensional computer displays in places, the [[Rhode Island Class|Rhode Island-class]] bridge module is one of the most advanced in the pre-2400 fleet. Perhaps one of its most charming features is the glass MSD on the back feature wall which is entirely customisable and interactive.

+
===Commanding Officer Lineage===
In a move away from more recent styles, and harking back to the traditional layouts of yesteryear, the ''Buran'' has a single center command seat for the commanding officer allowing the occupant full view of all stations. Directly ahead of them, down a few steps and between the commanding officer and the holographic viewscreen, two consoles have been merged into one single station, serving as duty stations for Operations (port) and Flight Operations (starboard). Surrounding the bridge, an additional four duty stations make up the rest of the command center's capacity. On the starboard bulkhead, two stations are dedicated to science (forward) and mission operations (aft), while on the port bulkhead, stations are reserved for tactical operations (forward) and engineering (aft).
+
Over the last thirty years, the ''Intrepid'' has been privileged to have five commanding officers overseeing her construction and five subsequent tours of duty.
 +
*2371 - 2375: Captain Terrance Riley
 +
*2375 - 2381: Captain Walter Emick

====Bridge, Deck One====
+
[[File:Bridge.png|right|thumb|Main Bridge, command center for the USS ''Intrepid''.]]
Modelled on the successful layout of older, larger vessels such as the ''Sovereign''-class, the bridge of the ''Osiris'' has a slightly altered colour scheme and a much-changed console layout across the bridge. Making the most of a variety of technological advancements, such as holoprojectors, holographic communications, in-built weapons lockers and three-dimensional computer displays in places, the [[Reliant Class|Reliant-class]] bridge module is one of the most advanced in the fleet. Perhaps one of its most charming features is the emblem of the United Federation of Planets emblazoned on the carpeting as a constant reminder of all the ship stands for.
+
Consisting of an amalgamation of successful features from both the [[Akira Class|Akira]] and [[Sovereign Class|Sovereign]] lineages, the ''Intrepid'' has one of the more unique and recently developed bridge modules in the fleet. Importantly, it makes the most of a variety of technological advancements, such as holoprojectors, holographic communications, in-built weapons lockers and three-dimensional computer displays wherever possible.
  
[[file:TemeraireBridge.png|thumb|left|300px|Bridge module, USS ''Osiris'']]
+
In a move away from more recent styles, and harking back to the traditional layouts of yesteryear, the ''Intrepid'' has an ornately carved wooden rail, known as The Arch, surrounding the command pit used to separate all of the forward facing stations from those in the aft section. Located on the aft bulkhead are stations dedicated to engineering, with the Master Systems Display (MSD) and additional controls allowing the engineers access to the same engineering systems as in engineering itself, including access to environmental controls, propulsion systems and the warp core.
In a move away from more recent styles, and harking back to the traditional layouts of yesteryear, the ''Osiris'' has a single center command seat for the commanding officer allowing the occupant full view of all stations. Directly ahead of them, down a few steps and between the commanding officer and the holographic viewscreen, two angled consoles serve as duty stations for Operations (port) and Flight Operations (starboard). Next, and facing into the heart of the bridge to allow maximum participation with the rest of the bridge crew are duty stations for science (port) and tactical operations (starboard). Directly behind the commanding officer, and in a further break from tradition, a combined duty station serves as positioning for the two most senior advisors and assistants to the ship's commander; the Executive Officer (starboard) and, when appropriate, the mission advisor or specialist (port). Around the outside of the bridge, there are countless other additional stations. Behind the main science station on the port bulkhead, additional science and medical consoles are available for mission operations, as well as access to life support and environmental controls. Adjacent to them on the starboard bulkhead, mission operations and security stations ensure the continued safety of the ship and crew on a day-to-day, mission-by-mission basis. On the aft bulkhead, engineering is the focus. With a large, entirely interactive and customizable master systems display (MSD) and other engineering controls, the representative from engineering has full access to the ship's systems.
 
  
Around the command center, four doors provide access to and from the bridge. On the forward port bulkhead, access is available to the observation lounge, whilst the starboard door grants access to the commanding officer's private ready room (available for use by any officer in command of the ship). At the aft of the bridge, both doors provide access to turbo lifts which enable the crew to access the command center from the rest of the bridge. The starboard turbo lift grants express, overridden access to key locations such as engineering, shuttlebay 1, sickbay, tactical astrometrics and transporter rooms 1 and 2.
+
In front of The Arch, an area known as the command pit, three chairs stand ready for the Captain, her Executive Officer (starboard) and a third seat (port), reserved for the use of the ship's Counsellor, Chief Medical Officer or any official or dignitary the Captain sees fit. All three chairs have controls built into the arms on either side, allowing the occupier unprecedented control from the safety of their seat. Directly ahead of the command pit, at the bottom of the platform and between the commanding officer and the holographic viewscreen, two angled consoles serve as duty stations for Operations (port) and Flight Operations (starboard). Next, and facing the main focal point of the viewscreen, are duty stations for science (port) and tactical (starboard). Around the outside of the bridge, there are countless other additional stations. Behind the main science station on the port bulkhead, additional science and medical consoles are available for mission operations, as well as access to life support. Adjacent to them on the starboard bulkhead, tactical and security are the focus with additional controls allowing the crew to deal with any scenario that may arise in their mission, without the need to access more specialised facilities around the ship unless absolutely necessary or appropriate. Operations are routinely monitored here, and additional personnel from across the ship may be assigned on a needs basis, such as additional medical or science personnel when evacuating a colony or dealing with an anomaly; security may be beefed up from here in the event of a tactical scenario such as an intruder alert or boarding action; intelligence, strategic operations and command analysts are likely to use the space to provide relevant departments with up to date information in ever-changing scenarios.
 +
 
 +
Around the command center, four doors provide access to and from the bridge. On the forward port bulkhead, access is available to the observation lounge and Executive Officer's ready room, whilst the starboard door grants access to the commanding officer's private ready room (available for use by any officer in command of the ship), and a forward turbo lift granting express access to key locations only, such as engineering, shuttlebay 1, sickbay, the brig and transporter rooms 1 and 2. At the aft of the bridge, both doors provide access to turbo lifts which enable the crew to access the command center from the rest of the bridge.

The main recreation area for personnel aboard the ''Intrepid'', the messhall is equipped with four food replicators, and a private captain's dining room just behind it but accessible from the main room. This dining room has recently been reconfigured to serve as a kitchen at the behest of [[bfms_char:52001|Captain T'Prynn]] due to her delicate dietary requirements. The messhall is staffed around the clock by a small team of six civilian catering staff. The messhall is typically used to host many social and mission-specific gatherings, including diplomatic affairs, birthday parties, memorial services, weddings, and holiday celebrations. Due to the ship's small size, the messhall can also serve as a makeshift sickbay whenever that facility is disabled or otherwise overwhelmed.

"The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible. "
    —Arthur C. Clarke - Ship's Dedication Quote


Boasting the scientific and exploration capabilities of the famed Galaxy-class in a space frame over half the size, the USS Intrepid was a testbed for many new technologies upon her construction in the early 2370’s. Sleek and maneuverable, Intrepid was one of the fastest ships in the fleet upon her launch, and the experimental atmospheric landing capability made the ship an important part of Starfleet’s exploration arm. Even now, some thirty years on, she’s still a more than capable explorer.

The first of a new, fast and highly-capable independent research and exploration starship, the Intrepid was launched from Earth Station McKinley on 12 January 2371, and continued to serve as a testbed for new technologies, including the Emergency Medical Hologram, until late 2372, shortly before the outbreak of hostilities with the Klingons.

Mission Objectives

A multi-purpose starship well into her third decade of service, the Intrepid has completed a wide variety of tasks and missions assigned to her over the years. Some of her core duties, commensurate with the Intrepid-class as a whole, include:

  • Operating autonomously under the command of the commanding officer, providing full capability to execute Federation defensive, cultural, scientific, and explorative policy in deep space or along border territories.
  • Replacing aging starships in certain frontline, light exploration duties.
  • Providing a platform for extended scientific survey and scouting missions.
  • Providing frontline support during times of war or crisis, such as the Century Storm and Blood Dilithium situations, and situations diplomatic in nature.
  • Serving non-critical functions such as transport of personnel and cargo when necessary, extended aid, and short-range patrol.

History

24th Century

Notable events from Intrepid's past include;

  • serving in the Federation-Klingon war of the 2370's
  • being assigned to patrol along the Romulan Neutral Zone in 2375
  • serving as part of Battle Group Omega (deployed in sector 1045) to counter the Reman threat in 2379
  • being assigned to the Chiron Colonial Convoy in 2382

25th Century

Most recently following an extensive refit to key systems, and the installation of a brand new bridge module, command of the Intrepid fell to a new commanding officer. Now commanded by Captain T'Prynn, a Vulcan with decades of experience, and her trusted right-hand man, Commander Giarvar Kauhn, the young crew of the Intrepid are seeking a fresh challenge in pastures new after experiencing a tragedy no crew should ever face; the loss of their previous commanding officer. Assigned to the deep space exploration initiative of the Fourth Fleet’s Task Force 17, and a founding member of Prometheus Squadron, the Intrepid crew find themselves coming face to face with the mysteries of the Typhon Frontier.

On Stardate 24011.1, upon the completion of Intrepid's recent mission, her command team and many of her personnel were drafted for reassignment elsewhere. Captain T'Prynn assumed command of the USS Venture, whilst Commander Kauhn joined the crew of the USS Proxima.

Commanding Officer Lineage

Over the last thirty years, the Intrepid has been privileged to have five commanding officers overseeing her construction and five subsequent tours of duty.

  • 2371 - 2375: Captain Terrance Riley
  • 2375 - 2381: Captain Walter Emick
