USS Scylla

Manticore-class • NCC-87505 • Sirius Expeditionary Squadron • Fourth Fleet

USS Scylla NCC-87505 is a Manticore-class Federation starship currently assigned to Fourth Fleet under the command of Captain Teodor Borodin. Operating as part of Sirius Squadron, the Scylla provides the unit with tactical support. Smaller and faster than the formation’s primary tactical vessel, the USS Redemption, the Scylla acts as a rapid response ship for emerging combat situations and flies escort when the other major ships of the squadron may be entering dangerous areas. Her routine operations include recon and patrol duties, particularly along more contested regions of the former Romulan Neutral Zone.

Sirius Expeditionary Squadron

Sirius Expeditionary Squadron is a unit centered around the Odyssey-class USS Sirius under the command of Commodore Matt Rourke. Sirius Squadron stands ready to deploy outside or on the fringes of Federation territory at short notice to respond to emerging situations across the galaxy. With multiple versatile and powerful ships at its disposal, the squadron can operate independently and without support for extended periods, and is flexible enough to face a range of missions, including under volatile circumstances where objectives and conditions can quickly change. While this profile often leads Sirius Squadron to respond to geopolitical crises, the unit’s versatility make it equally suited emergent scientific investigations.

The main unit, organised around the Sirius herself, is an element of several powerful ships each able to take the lead or act independently depending on the mission’s needs. Deployed together, they are a supremely well-rounded and capable unit. Two additional divisions provide specialist support. The first, headed by the USS Redemption, acts as an operations element to provide engineering, humanitarian, or diplomatic services. The second, headed by the USS Liberty, fulfils dedicated exploratory or scientific missions. The divisions may deploy independently or in support of one another, depending on operational needs.

‘Scylla, it’s good to hear your voice. Or, uh, Captain Borodin’s voice. You know what I mean.’ Juliette Yves’s message, audio only, drifted through Borodin’s ready room. He didn’t look up as he listened, gaze fixed on his computer console and the data streaming in from a completely [...]

‘So that’s another vote for the Solathian Race Grounds.’ Lindgren swiped her finger across the holographic display dominating the Safe House lounge to tally up her count. ‘Looking pretty decisive, then!’ She turned to the small assemblage of young, twenty-something officers and NCOs with [...]

USS Ranger and USS Scylla

It started, as it so often did for a Starfleet captain, with a distress signal. Teodor Borodin had answered a thousand in his fifteen-year career; cries for help from civilians who’d had an accident, from fellow officers under attack, from starships on the brink of disaster. While each and every [...]

On a ship as mighty as the Suv’chu, they were not received in General Brok’tan’s quarters or office, but his private halls. That was the term for what on Endeavour would be Valance’s private dining room, a small space to host a half-dozen guests just off the Safe House lounge. On a Klingon [...]
