USS Bellerophon

Intrepid-class • NCC-74705 • Odyssey Heavy Explorer Squadron • Fourth Fleet • Managed by FADM Luke Duncan

“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.”

The USS Bellerophon (NCC-74705) is an Intrepid-class Federation starship built in the early part of the 2370s and served with distinction during the Dominion War. Now, after thirty years of various missions within the Alpha and Beta Quadrant, the ship is assigned to the Fourth Fleet’s Odyssey Heavy Explorer Squadron. The ship has been sent to undertake deep space exploration assignments in the Delta Quadrant. The Bellerophon has been refitted for this mission and to retrace the steps made famous by another Intrepid-class that traversed the same region.

The ship’s quote is from a speech shared by the 44th President of the United States of America from Earth’s 21st century, President Barack Obama.

Odyssey Heavy Explorer Squadron

The Odyssey Squadron is a formation centred around the USS Odyssey, which served as the prototype of the Odyssey-class heavy explorer. The squadron is assigned to the Fourth Fleet and is currently under the command of Commodore James Preston McCallister. It has been designated as a deep-space expeditionary force in the Delta Quadrant, working closely with the Delta Exploration Initiative.

Established at the end of the year 2400, the squadron received orders to proceed to the Swallow Nebula region, located beyond the Gradin Belt, to initiate re-exploration efforts. Since then, it has explored areas previously undiscovered, made contact with new species, and re-established relations with others encountered before. The Odyssey Squadron’s efforts have been vital to Starfleet’s mission in the Delta Quadrant. Through the use of hyper-subspace communication data streams, it remains in regular contact with Deep Space Nineteen, its home base.

Maje Kerra loomed over them, his expression smug. The dim light of the Kazon vessel caught the cruel curve of his smile as he studied the two Starfleet officers slumped in their restraints. He didn’t need to keep beating them anymore; their exhaustion and bruised bodies had already done half his [...]

“Report, Commander.” Captain Reyas’ voice carried over the bustle of Bellerophon’s main engineering as she stepped off the small lift onto the upper level. The air still held the faint scent of scorched circuitry, and conduits along the bulkheads bore the patched scars of recent [...]

Jonarom’s isolation cell was little more than a closet. Bare metal walls pressed in so close he could feel the cold seep through his clothing. There was no light save for a dull strip along the ceiling, faint enough to make the edges of the walls dissolve into shadow. No sound came through except [...]

“Hold still, Jonarom. You’ll make it worse if you keep moving.” “I’m steady,” Jonarom muttered, his voice low and raw. “Hurts like hell, though.” “I know,” Chambers replied, his tone just as tired, just as pained. His own bruises trailed down his jaw and ribs. Chambers pressed [...]
