Vesta-class • NCC-83722 • Neptune Advance Exploration Division • Task Force 93 • Managed by FCAPT Brodie Lewis
“The trident of Neptune is the sceptre of the world”
The USS Neptune (NCC-83722) is a Vesta class Starship and considered top of the line when it comes to capabilities that it can preform. The Neptune is an explorer meant to be out for months if not longer sustaining long range operations. It is commanded by Captain Michael Ryder, who took over the ship after his time on the USS Tesla.
In most cases a Capital ship means the crew is the best of the best with the Neptune that can be questioned. The crew though very skilled at times clash and with the Captain’s steamy love triangle there is always drama somewhere. The Neptune has been tested from the moment the crew stepped on it. The Neptune being a multi-purpose vessel helps with the flexibility of the Neptune. The Vesta class boast some of the best abilities, but even unknown threats can play a factor.
The Neptune also has an enemy that will do anything to stop the crew from its mission. Michelle Oliver with her accomplices and immense organization is a threat that looms over the Neptune. Oliver has plans and if those plans are successful it will be the end of the Neptune. Oliver will stop at nothing to destroy the Neptune.
After the destruction of Oliver the Neptune had a shakeup and became the flagship of the Neptune Advance Exploration Division, though the ship was still commanded by Michael it was now the home of the Division Commander.

Neptune Advance Exploration Division
The Neptune Squadron is an unit used for exploration under the command of Fleet Captain Mero Tomuya stationed at Deep Space 27 on some of the farthest reaches of the Federation borders. The Neptune Squadron is at the forefront of fleet exploration through its diverse officers and varied ships each of which help to make the division stronger. As the Squadron is on the fringe of the unknown what it encounters is always a surprise.
The Neptune Squadron is comprised of three different vessels, which complement the divisions strengths and weaknesses.
- USS Neptune – The Flagship of the Squadron, a Vesta Class Explorer is the most versatile ship in the Squadron allowing for it to provide support in any mission, while versatile in roles its size makes it a target for the enemy.
- Mirage Station (DS-27) – The home of the Neptune Squadron is also an integral part of the system it inhabits due to the prosperous amount of dilithium on the planet below. With the security of the planet, as well as trade and constant traffic before reaching the farthest reaches of space DS-27 is an integral part of the system it inhabits.
- USS Hydra – The firepower of the Squadron, a Manticore Class Heavy Escort is the ship that can do the heavy work when it comes to fighting or combat encounters that the Division might encounter. Though it is heavily armed it cannot do the more finer points of mission objectives
- USS Tianwen – The Scientific brainchild of the Squadron, a Pathfinder Class Science Vessel is the ship that is dedicated for the more advanced research and scientific missions that the Division may encounter. The Tianwen is the weakest when it comes to combat, but tries to avoid combat as much as possible. Its job to get in and out as quickly as possible.

As the Neptune turbolift hummed on its way to the bridge, Alex quietly admired his surroundings with a degree of envy.
