Hello everyone,
My name is Vice-Admiral Talim Meran and if you like to get stuck in a new galaxy with strange new places and strange new species. Then the USS Valkyrie can offer you that chance.
We're still star trek, we're still exploring, but we're also trying to get back home. Something like a mix of Voyager and Stargate: Universe.
History and Origin:
The USS Valkyrie is a pro to-type vessel and is a Nova class refit. the Nova class is equipped with a trans-warp engine, designed to travel great distances, greater then was possible so far. Yet the engine is still in a test phase. It was being build in the dry-docks of Star base Hope. While the engines were developed on the nearby colony: Port Royale. Where most new technology was tested and developed until recently. Both the Star base and Port Royale were under attack by an unknown enemy. Crew members claimed to see ancient spirits and strange things were happening. Till Vice-Admiral Talim Meran and Vice admiral Laban Marci, the highest flag officer on the Star base, decided to destroy both the colony and star base by means of self destruct. And no one was to be left behind. No cadet, no captain, no one.
An unmanned USS Ottawa, Steamrunner class, was send to star fleet, to inform star fleet of the evacuation on to the Valkyrie and several support vessels. None of these vessels were ever found again.
As the Valkyrie went to warp, the Star base exploded, but the explosion was larger then anticipated and pushed the Valkyrie in to transwarp, but the field was so unstable it dragged the support vessels along, including a nearby freighter and dropped them off in a galaxy far far away, leaving the Valkyrie's warp engines damaged. They're are dropped off near hostile territory, which they don't know. And they make first contact. Also on board the Valkyrie is someone who may know more about this galaxy then she is letting on. Is she a spy or can she be trusted?
The crew:
Crew is a bit unbalanced. So we don't ask much from new recruits. Currently we have a colonel running the marines, while our main pilot is a Senior cadet. This because the Star base also housed a senior class academy. So it's kind off mixed up. Also some of the crew can still be dealing with what had happened on the star base.
What the Valkyrie needs:
Chief Engineer
Chief Science officer (A stellar Cartographer would be great)
Chief Medical officer
Chief Diplomatic officer
Chief Intelligence/Strategic officer
You are welcome to check out our support vessels, with exception of the Firefly which is completely NPC'd and currently the Archon is closed because it's commander is a bit AWOL, but the Woodland is open for new recruits. Although we do ask you to be a part of the main story, which is the Valkyrie. All the support vessels manifests can be found on the SMS.

When can I join:
TO join the USS Valkyrie as a sim you must be 16 years old or older. We make no exception. The General board areas are 13+ but the RP areas are 16+ unless specified otherwise.
A new species:
On the Valkyrie we welcome all new species (Talim is a diplomat). We do ask if you sign up your character as a new species, you must add some additional information on this new species. In the SMS wiki you can find what we need off information for a new species. You can also find some non canon species information there. Also we would like the species to be star trek appropriate. I had a debate about the Sayins as a species, which is cool, but I want it to be Star trek worthy. So the Sayins perse don't transform in to Super Sayins. That kind of stuff. I allow Star Gate species to be in the storyline. But again, I need their additional info before I can approve. As they're not Star trek canon species. This goes for other Sci-fi as well.
My posting rules:
A minimum of two alineas per posts and 5 lines per alinea is required. I expect active members to post at least once per seven days. So new recruits have 7 days to make their first post.
