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.

Mission: Trillius Prime
Posted on Sat Sep 13th, 2025 @ 2:34am by Captain Andre Hunt & Warrant Officer Emily Douglasdale & Lieutenant Commander Mattys Plaatjes & Warrant Officer Steve Baxter

The crew of the Meridian found themselves engaged with the two smaller pirate ships that came from behind the moon. Still adrift the main ship was simply unable to join the fight while being raided by the MACOs. That was the good news, but on another note these smaller ships were small, agile and well coordinate. Probably due to years of experience working together. What the ships lacked in firepower, they made up for with not being so easy to hit.

"These guys are definitely slippery," Douglasdale spoke from the helm. "Hard to keep up with their movements."

Heath Stoudemire sat in shuttle pod one with the small craft powered up and ready to launch. The ship had been engaged in battle with the pirates for the last few minutes, which felt like a longer period of time. But now things had calmed down with the battle going on outside the Meridian. Inside the shuttle bay were the MACOs who were suited up, armed and ready to jump in the shuttle pod when given the orders to proceed.

Entering the shuttle bay, Gunnery Sergeant Antonio Lopez placed his phaser on his hip. A MACO handed the senior enlisted…

The pirates had arrived at the destination on Omar II. It didn't take much to gain control of the small mining colony on the surface. Fifteen pirates were all it took to take down the colony of fifty people. At first there had been a little resistance, but after killing seven of their people, the colonists. During the scuffle the pirates lost two of their own. So technically there was now thirteen of them in the colony. Jysol didn't like unnecessarily killing anyone, though at times like these it was a necessary evil. Their ship was located just outside the…

The Meridian cruised through the system as they conducted a grid-by-grid search for the pirate ship. It had been twelve hours since the guest diplomat arrived on board and about eight hours into their search. They managed to narrow it down to two possible targets, but due to be unable to be at two places at once. They currently were maintaining contact with several smaller patrols that were a part of the grid search.

On the bridge, there was complete silence which was interrupted by the sound of the turbolift doors opening. Captain Hunt stepped onto the bridge, making his…

Emily Douglasdale made her way down the corridor on her way to the Armory. Since the senior staff meeting, she had been putting together some ideas based on the movements of the L'Dira pirate ships movements. For the most part, she was able to determine their ship was inferior to the Meridian when it came to speed, firepower. Now she wasn't too certain about maneuverability. But the enemies ship was smaller and likely had them beat in that department. They were less advanced, but who knew what they were capable of doing. One reason why she was meeting with the…
