Star Trek: Shadows of the Delta Quadrant FAQ

The Delta Quadrant. A region of space unknown to Starfleet until the USS Voyager was transported there by the mysterious Caretaker in an attempt to find a compatible species he could reproduce with and thus continue to watch over the Ocampans whose world he and his fellow Nacenes had accidentally destroyed. 

The Caretaker's partner, Suspiria, blamed the crew of the Voyager for the death of her mate, but was thwarted in her attempt to exact revenge. She disappeared, seemingly back to the subspace layer called Exosia.

But what of the other Nacene? Where had they travelled to, and what was their purpose?

In our game, a third Nacene, Innanna, has created her own array. Not content to merely pull ships in from four quadrants, hers has also taken ships out of time. And Innanna does not search for knowledge; she prepares for war. 

The game begins in 2379, one year after Voyager's return from the Delta Quadrant. 

In this game, rather than playing characters all serving aboard a single starship, each player will control an entire ship themselves, pulled from time and space and dropped into what can only be referred to as a starship graveyard. Everyone's ship is in need of some repair, but the corpses of ships litter the space where they've appeared. You'll write the crew. All the crew. Go nuts.

The ships will all combine to create a small fleet, with (one would assume) the intent of returning to wherever they've come from. Or maybe not, it's your ship! Each ship will be considered the best at something, be it ship-to-ship combat, flying, medical, engineering, communications, whatever niche you'd like your ship to fill. As each role is filled it will be noted on the Master Roster. That's not to say your medical ship can't have some top-notch kickboxers or your science vessal contain someone with amazing sniper skills, only that when it comes time tor a specific skill set to take the lead, the appropriate ship gets the spotlight.

This will be a freeform game set up with the same guidelines as Draconis Fleet, though we exist outside of their timeline. Please read and bookmark them for reference and we'll all get along famously. 

CURRENT FLEET ROSTER AND SPECIALTIES:

The Qa'bortaS, a modified B'rel class Klingon Bird of Prey pirate ship specializing in ship-to-ship and close combat actions

The USS [Name Pending], a Starfleet Hornet-class fighter carrier specializing in flight and skirmishing

The USS Midway, a Starfleet Miranda-class light cruiser specializing in Engineering

The USS Rod of Asclepius, a Starfleet Olympic-class hospital ship specializing in Medical

The V'Nos, a Vulcan Confederacy D'Kyr-class ship specializing in Science

Feel free to post your crew manifest here, editing as needed. I know I'll be adding to the crew as I introduce them. This will also be where we can discuss the missions and generally hang out and chat.

U.S.S. Rod of Asclepius crew

I adapted some characters from my Star Trek Online crews, tweaked/added some bios, and boom. I have a crew.

I was even able to buy an Olympic-class ship, so I have access to those graphics with no work.

STO Wiki: a resource

Hi, all.

Even if you don't play Star Trek Online, you can access a LOT of their graphics at their official wiki:

https://sto.gamepedia.com/Main_Page

We're a small group, so if my modest Photoshop skills can help create something that will improve your SotDQ experience, just speak up!

Peace and long life,

Rob

He's not kidding; the avatars for Wor'Mog, Jarum Bo, Pev, and Shaulin were all expertly done by Kinravip! 

Also, the player for the TBD diplomatic ship has withdrawn, so until we have a replacement we'd better be polite, or at least capable of backing up our uncivil tones.
