Welcome to the USS Meridian!

It is the year 2167, still in the early years of the newly formed United Federation of Planets. The founding members United Earth, Vulcan, Andor, Tellar and Alpha Centauri lead the way for the new members: Mars, Alpha III, Vega IX, United Rigel Worlds and Colonies, Arken II and Orodanga who are finding their place and standing in the Federation. The USS Meridian a Columbia class starship leads the way in exploration as Starfleet pushes out further among the stars to find new worlds and hopefully expand.

But all is not completely peaceful. The Klingon Empire has concerns of the Federation which they have already determined to be a major force and threat which continues to get stronger with each new world joining. There are also the threats of piracy as civilian ships continue to push out further for trade and science expeditions.

Come join the crew of the Meridian as we explore, practice diplomacy, take on old and new threats to the United Federation of Planets, including threats from within.

Chief Petty Officer Heath Stoudemire was completing the final inspections on shuttle pod, which was scheduled to be launched when they eventually caught up with the L'Dira. The shuttle would be carrying the MACO's over to the pirate ship to extract their captain. The task seemed simple enough, but like with anything in life there were also unknown variables. So he made it a point to go over this ship more than twice. Feeling good about the final checks, Heath signed off on the PADD that he had been carrying.

The door to bay opened as Captain Hunt entered. He…

Warrant Officer Emily Douglasdale, stood in front of the monitor staring down the star charts that had been given to them by the Trill government. For the last two hours, she been trying to pinpoint where these pirates would attack next. Honestly with the Meridian now in the picture, one would assume they would return home. But greed probably had them out here searching for more. Due to some imaging brought in, it was believed that their target would be one of the three places marked on the chart. But which would they for, if any.

The door opened as…

Captain Hunt sat his desk as he went over the service records of Lt. Commander Plaatjes. It had been a few weeks since the Meridian had left space dock and he been watching how the Chief Engineer ran his department. About five minutes, Andre had called Plaatjes to his office to discuss some things with him.

Fresh from a routine inspection of the nacelle's interiors for any early-voyage stress, Plaatjes had made his way up to the Captain's Ready Room, pausing only to clean off some grease from his hands, still in his dirty uniform overall, one of the many…

[ON]

After docking with the Trill cargo ship, those injured during the attack were escorted to sickbay to receive medical attention. Talariana had been assigned to keep an eyes on those brought on board. The doors to sickbay opened as she entered with about five people. "Doctor, I have the injured from the Relut."

T'Ria looked up from the workstation she was standing in front of as the doors to her sickbay opened and the Andorian female armory officer stepped into her domain with five others who were not members of the crew. She tilted her head and made a…

Captain Hunt stared out the window of the conference room as he waited for the senior staff to arrive. After speaking with the Captain of the transport Rulet, he immediately contacted Starfleet Command making them aware of the current situation. Now he was here waiting for his senior staff to show, so he can update them to a few changes. Their mission of diplomacy had quickly turned into something much more. But he was certain that the crew of the Meridian were more than prepared and experienced to handle the task at hand.

The door to the conference room hissed…
