[Batista]

Para thinks for a while, "Captain, also, could we not do an intense sensor scan of each of the rooms of the servants, and try and detect anything unusual? A weapon or some sort of secret recording device would be a dead giveaway."

I suppose we can, can you handle it? Do it whilst they are carving the rock, and if everything else fails we can always question them one by one and monitor their vital signs, also I might be able to spot a liar, I've had some training back in the academy.

We are going to divert our course to the nearest planet, scoop ourselves some rock and handle them to the servants. Para will search through their quarters while I keep them busy with the Urn preparations.

[Faden]

Nothing much to do at the moment, so I'll spend my time chatting with everyone, and I'll concentrate on not throwing up when we enter the atmosphere.

[NoctisVampire]

Turn expected in 9 hours.
And...Prepare for something to happen in the story:)

[NoctisVampire]

The beginning of planetary adventure for both party...Some real RTD expected:)
Also applied the sensor modification...And pretty lucky!
Turn 13

  After Batista informed his officers of the new change, Para made a face at all of this, "I don't like this situation one bit. If we miss the rendezvous with the Wispy it could be beyond disastrous. Couldn't we just fly by any planet and scoop up some rock, and carve it ourselves? All it has to be is freshly hewn stone, correct? So we grab some rock, and I am certain we could carve it ourselves. It might not be beautiful or anything, but it would work without putting the Princess and the entire galaxy in danger."He paused, reconsidered his ideas. "Captain, also, could we not do an intense sensor scan of each of the rooms of the servants, and try and detect anything unusual? A weapon or some sort of secret recording device would be a dead giveaway."
  Hearing Para's idea about scanning the servant's quarters, Batista responded. "I suppose we can, can you handle it? Do it whilst they are carving the rock, and if everything else fails we can always question them one by one and monitor their vital signs, also I might be able to spot a liar, I've had some training back in the academy. This seemed to be a good idea, Anyone else?...No? Then that's it. Dismissed."
------
  Batista composed his plan, and sent it to Navy Command just before the deadline was hit. He intentedly omitted the fact that King Lorin has passed away, and received approval almost immediately. "Looks like they've no better idea on this too."He grumbled.
  At the same time, Nirur put his plan for sensor modification underway, and called a team of system specialist to work with him([9+1(Above average)]:Good system Engineers, Good power system repairers.). (Nirur:[4+2(Power system repair)+2([8+2(Power Management)]synergy)+stat.bonus(Adv.)], Crew:[8+1(System Repairer)+2([10+1(Power system repair)]synergy)+1(Nirur's roll)])They did an exceptional job modifying the sensor, eliminating large part of the shortcoming of the modification and reinforcing the bonus granted further.
  Final parameters of the modification:

By bypassing some safeguards and strengthening the sensor power grid, the ship's sensor array can be made to send a high-powered hyperspace ping. Estimations:
Power taken: 450 power unit
Normal Cooldown: 1 minute
Possible Adventages:
  Much longer detection range and much higher sensitivity for a frame.(+(1d2+3) to Sensor Use roll, +3 to following Scanner Analyzing roll, for once.)
Possible Disadventages:
  Very small chance to damage or burnout the sensor array.(Another 2d10 is rolled, Damage on 3-5, Burnout on 2)
  Lights up the ship, and other things nearby, like a Christmas tree on every ship's sensor readout across several tens of lightyears.(Alerts others of the ship's, as well as others illuminated by the ping's, presence.)

  [5]Sxtan continued on his research on Xenobiology.
------
  Later this day, after ordering the ship to head to Ellon III at incresed speed, Batista did his part in the plan by informing the servants of the change in the plan.
  "None of us have any skill in stonemasoning."Nil said.
  "But that will just have to do."Batista responded, cautiously to not bring up any suspections.
  "Captain...Nil's mason friend is the only chance we have..."Eari, still sobbing, murmured.
  "We just don't have time."
  "We don't have much more time for the funeral either."Mossay responded in a low voice.
  "Captain, let me go to find that stonemason, we'll try to make it as fast as possible."Nil said, again.
  After he dismissed the servants, Para reported in,[7(Sensor Use)] and nothing unusual was in the servant's quarters.
------
  Nil was going down to the surface of the Ellon III, and Batista have a bad feeling about this.
  It was that question again...Is he just being the faithful servant to the end, doing a final service to his dead master, or just trying to contact Tyrilians and do his job as a spy?
  As a measure, Para slipped a communicator without Nil's knowledge into his pocket, for monitoring his communication with whatever down on the surface.
  The officers left onboard focused their attention on the open communication channel linked to Nil's communicator in Security, the atmosphere was tense.
  "Arm yourselves and prepare to follow up, I have a bad feeling about this...and tell a security team to get ready."Batista ordered, as Nil disappeared in the teleporter beam of the Swiftwing, in the security monitor screen of the teleporter room.

Spoiler: Interactions, Wispy (click to show/hide)

  [With some elements of the original material]
  [7]Faden did a quite well job training everyone in the party basics about First aid.(First Aid: +10: Nimitz, Flintus, +5: Cila, +3: Faden)
  Beside taking part in Faden's training course, the only way to pass time is still chatting, and they did so.(Everyone +1 every social skill)
  Now 7 days has passed since their departure. and everyone is now positively claustrophobic.
  "Have we not arrived yet?"Faden twisted around in her seat, stretched every muscle in both wings and both legs, and said irritably. Her avian heritage made her even more susceptable to claustrophobia.
  "Now we're one hour closer to our destination."Nimitz answered blandly, he is also tired of all this flight."And you asked that question one hour ago."
  "Tell me our destination is somewhere beautiful."Flintus added satirically, smirked. Everyone knows what climate they will be facing on Sigma 756.
  "I think we're getting close." Trying to change the mood of the team, Nimitz said, stretching out his limbs. Then he stepped out of his seat in the front row near the control panel and sat down with his comrades, next to Faden. "I'm sure things'll go smoothly. If it doesn't, well...we'll be ready for it." he smiled, and patted Faden on the back. Then, although she can't do facial emotions very well, Faden smiled back.
  Nimitz's next compliment was soundly shaken back from the tip of his tongue, as the Wispy flew into a particularly strong pocket of turbulence. Almost bitten his tongue, Nimite grasped a hold of the backrest of pilot's seat, and scurried back to his panel, as everyone buckled themselve up.
  "What's wrong, Nimitz?"Faden asked in a loud voice as the hull of the shuttle creaked.
  The next jolt thrown every crew of the shuttle tight against the backrest of their seat.
  "It's getting worse!" Cila screamed, her lunch barely contained.
  "We are entering the ion storm around Sigma 756! Brace yourself!" Nimitz shouted as he worked furiously with the unresponsive instruments.
  "How long will it takes? Do something!"Faden shouted in the middle of various sounds of creaking, beeping and alert sounding."Surrounding the planet...Does that means we're getting close?"
  "We're approaching it Lieutenant!" Nimitz gritted his teeth as another wave sent the shuttle jolting downward considerably."I have been forced to reduce our speed! Another hour at best!"
  "Glaarg..Ewww..Looks like you mean so when you says we're getting close!" Flintus screamed as he emptied the content of his stomach into an airsick bag. Then Cila added anxiously."Are we going to hold together?"
  "I don't know! Pray to your gods or write down your will, I don't know!" A furious Nimitz responded.
  The hull of the Wispy groaned and creaked as the convulsive fury of the storm thrown it around like a puppet, and it almost seemed like the little ship is trying to twist in all three axes of motion at once.
------
  The reentry doesn't prove to be any better. Nimitz was fighting a losing battle against the cyclonic gales of more than one hundreds meters per second as the shuttle began to heat up. At least it wasn't that bumpy.
  Flintus and Cila tried to batter down whatever might be shaken loose in the cabin, as Faden watched Nimitz from behind. But the time has come for them to strap in and hope for the best.
  "Are we on target?" Faden asked weakly, still not recovered from the disorientation and nausea caused by extended turbulence.
  "I don't know! Navigation instrument's malfunctioning! It's all guesswork!"Nimitz responded, screaming in the midst of noise caused by air friction."Strap in and prepare to brace for impact! We're not going down today!"
  Faden didn't respond, as she watched Nimitz piloting the shuttle into evasive maneuver, barely missed a series of hills.
  Cila bit her lip nervously, and Flintus noticed. "Let's just hope that's an overstatement."
------
  (Nimitz:[8+1(Starship Maneuvering)+0([6(Evasive Maneuver)]synergy)], Cila:[7-1(First Aid)])
  (Damage avoidance: Cila, Nimitz, Flintus, Faden:[9][10][7][4], also influenced by storyline.)
  One joint at a time, Faden moved around, starting with her right wing. Her right wing was fully operative, and she reached up on her head with it. It was there, too.
  She opened her eyes for the first time since she closed it up, and a backlog of impressions flooded in. The heat, the acceleration and the nauseous feeling in her stomach, then the sound of tearing metal, explosion and a quick, but painful death. But the latter part must never have happened, as she was quite certain that she was alive.
  Sensations gradually returned to her, as she realized that she was alone, and the craft was tilted at an crazy angle. The bow tip of what's left of her pointing skyward, as she can see the grey and overcasted sky outside the cracked windshield, and the stern resting on the right side.
  Debris scattered throughout the interior, and equipments broken free from their storage niches in what must have been a good impact. She reached for the release for her seat belt, and found it to be already unlatched. A piece of bloody cloth slipped off from the side of her head, which was evidently placed on by someone else, landed beside the release button. She placed it back in place, it must have had a good reason to be there.
  Faden closed her eyes again, trying to force the throbbing in her head out. Where was the others?
  The shuttle door creaked open, its sliding track broken in the impact. A gust of frigid air forced in, and Cila made her way in. Faden smiled at her.
  "You wouldn't smile if you saw what you looked like"Cila said, gently. Then she touched the cloth on the right side of Faden's head. Faden shrieked out at the bolt of pain shooted through her skull down the neck.
  "I'm sorry."She pulled her hand back."Did it hurt?"
  "You could say that."
  "It's my fault hurting you...and now I'm torturing you...I...I..."
  "Hold it...Listen here, bring here my medikit please."Faden said, with as much strength as she can muster.
  "Here it is."
  "Now open it...and find a vial labeled 'Painkiller' and install it inside a hypospray, give me a dose of that...my head's splitting open"
  Faden was visibly reliefed as Cila followed her instructions, as the drug quickly took its effect.
  "Florence Nightingale would be proud, Cila. And where's Nimitz and Flintus?" Now Faden noticed that Cila is wearing one of those skin-tight thermal suits.
  "Scouting the area."
  "They did take weapons right?"
  "Of course."
  Faden reached up to her wound again. "You did a great job at first aid."
  "How do you know that?"Cila blurted.
  "A guess. And speaking of guess...where are we?"
  "Mr. Nimitz said that he wasn't sure."
  "Oh great...We'd be in real trouble if he admits it...it felt cold when you opened the door."
  "It is. It's five degree celsius outside."
  "What's it looks like outside? Doesn't seemed to be flat."Faden pointed to the grey sky outside the windshield.
  "Nothing special. We landed in a valley, and there's a river nearby, so at least we have water."
  "How are you feeling?"
  She shrugged."All right, I guess."
  "No reactions?"
  She shooked her head.
  "That's good...you remember what I told you right?"Faden smiled.
  Cila thought about what she's been through, and her face lit up."Well...I suppose so."
  "That's good. I will give you another Holulin in a few hours."
  Another gust of cold air, Nimitz and Flintus climbed in, both dressed in thermal suit.
  "Are you all right?"They both asked in almost the same time, seeing Faden has regained her consciousness.
  "Well...Yes. And I see you've got us into some quite good fix with you piloting skill."She said jokingly."So where the hell we are? And what do we do now?"
  "As far as I could tell...We are in the right containent..."
  "That's great aim Nimitz."
  "...within a hundred kilometer to Shal'a mountain range."
  "That's good enough."Cila volunteered.
  "But...In no way we're going to make it to there in time."Flintus murmured.
  "Can't we repair the shuttle?"Faden asked.
  "Not without spare parts. Not even the communication system, she's pretty far gone, the only system still functional aboard is the emergency locator beacon."
  "Ha."Faden said glumly. "So we can't get to the Crown, we can't get the the Swiftwing, we are stranded in this hell of a planet."
  "So our job here will be to survive and wait for help. If we stay warm and fed...we can wait until Swiftwing comes."Flintus said.
  Faden brightened."So we just have to tuck inside and hope no one knocks the door until help home?" The trio before her exchanged glances."...You didn't tell me something right?"
  Nimitz patted her shoulder."A lot of systems was damaged in the impact, And various fluids leaked out. Much of our food was contaminated, and our water has leaked clean."He continued after a pause."But I believe we can gather enough, there's a forest nearby, and there's a river. Cila is a good botanist...You can join us right?"
  "Well...the situation just got worse now. I will join, that's nonsense staying here all by myself while you goes out to pick berries and nuts...you know, I know botany too."
  "Very well. You'd better get a thermal suit...It's cold out there."Nimitz said as he stuffed a communicator into Faden's pocket.[Further information available below]

Spoiler: Informations (click to show/hide)

  Humanoid race hailing from Planet Cril, resembles human, slightly weaker constitution, and have white hair. Confederation Associate.
  Supplies the ore Crilium which is used as energy source in the entire sector. Ravaged by civil war for more than 20 years tracing back before the Third War, the situation is about to take a turn.
  Planet Cril's political and religious leader, King of Covenant of Cril, Lorin has been exiled to Planet Olan for 21 years.

  A vital energy source of many planets in local space near Cril, much safer than Uranium and other similiar isotopes and require much less technology than fusion to produce power.
  Although Crilium did occur natually on every planets and asteroids in this section of space, only Cril, after which the ore is named after, have a concentration high enough to be mined with acceptable cost-effectiveness. And there's nigh-infinite amount of Crilite in the crust of Cril, which is enough to provide this and nearby sectors with energy for thousands of years to come at current rate.

  Humanoid race with an appearance that resembles human, but more bony and muscular, especially on the face. Regional Power, Quite aggressive. One of the powers that is now essentially surronded by CS as the latter expands, As CS spent most of its resource on Zerkalian Front it's more than willing to take some bite off the CS from the back, but does not dare an open war since they are too weak when compared with CS.
  Tyrilians ritually execute their prisoner after capture, in a particularly gory and painful way.

  As it's closer to Earth, the first contact between CS and Tyrilian Empire is pretty early, in the 2250s, which is immediately followed by a series of skirmishes between the two powers.
  Now it's surronded by Confederation as the latter expands, laying between the core and frontier worlds.
  It's technology level is 2370s-equivalent when compared to the Confederation, which is slightly inferior.
  The relation between it and CS has never been good. And because of Confederation's non-invasive nature, and the war between Confederation and Zerkalians, they have been trying to cut a piece out of CS since the Second War.
  Located in the opposite side of the Zerkalian Front, This regional power have been proven to be a thorn on the back for the Confederation.

  The military ships of Tyrilian Empire is typically light-to-medium destroyer sized, using exclusively lasers as their weaponery as observed, though a heavy-cruiser sized ship has been observed not long ago.
  Their technology is around 2370s-equivalent for Confederation, which is a bit outdated for newer Confederation ships, but still somewhat more advanced than his own Swan-class light cruiser.
  Tyrilian ships usually patrols around in single ship, or form a small taskforce of up to 5 ships.
  A typical Tyrilian ship looks like a triangle, with HL engine attached to port and starboard aft, and bridge on the dorsal fore of the ship.
  The common weakness among these ships are their low HL speed. The maximum speed ever observed is Factor 6.5, while they typically cruise at factor 5.
  Their laser armament are roughly class 4-8 in output when catagueized, though more powerful weapons is possible.
  Typical tactics Tyrilians use usually involves a lot of strafing as their laser are mostly forward-mounted. Ramming is also a tactic favored by Tyrilian commanders if their ship is damaged enough, or they are overpowered enough.

  Located near the Confederation-Tyrilian border, this sector is the home of StarStation 23 and Planet Cril, origin of Crilite civilization. Also have 8 habitable planets, 3 minor planetary colonies and 2 minor civilization, Olani and Elloni.
  This sector has been under constant threat from Tyrilian Empire since the first contact with them, but is still weakly-defended when compared to those alongside Confederation-Zerkalian border because of the constant threat of Zerkalians and its spatial position.
  At factor 6, Olan is 3 days away from SS23, Sigma 756 is 3 weeks away from Olan, Cril is 2 week 5 day away from Olan, 1 week away from Sigma 756, Ellon III is 2 week 3 day away from Olan, 9 day away from Sigma 756, 11 day away from Cril.

  Humanoid race native to Planet Olan, much shorter when compared to human, and is characterized by their darker skin and slightly diffenent facial feature. Confederation Associate.
  Planet Olan is very hot for a Class-M Terrestrial planet, bordering on Class-L Desert because of its relatively closeness to its sun, its atmosphere is also thinner than Earth. As the result Olani population is pretty sparse, barely reaching 5 million as of 2415.
  This planet does not have any natural resources treasured by any space-faring civilization, nor of any strategic importance. Thus of little intrest to any space-faring civilization, such a planet makes for excellent dwelling for exiled royalties like those of Planet Cril.
  The King of Covenant of Cril and his family has been exiled here with Confederation assistance. and has been here for 21 years.

  Humanoid race native to Planet Ellon III, shorter than human, and the skin color ranges from pink to deep green, very welcoming to strangers from all places. Confederation Associate.
  Ellon III is pretty underdeveloped by Confederation standard, the cosy lifestyle of Elloni people in one of the reason behind that.
  The culture of Elloni people calls for friendliness to all people, regardless of origin. Total strangers are hailed as neighbours, the hospitality of the Elloni people is famous throughout the Confederation.
  As a result, Immigration policy of the planet is pretty lax, and there's a stable Crilite population on the planet because of the frequent ore trade between the two planets.
  The Capital of Ellon III ins Ellonikot, on the southern hemisphere of the planet.

  King of Covenant of Cril, Lorin has been exiled onto Planet Olan since 21 years ago, with his still-young daughter(Princess Cila, aged 4 at that time), his wife(Queen Miri), and his four servant(Personal manservant Eari and his wife, royal cook Mossay. Also Stable Master, Aldel and Chief of the households, Nil)
  Queen Miri died a few years later by disease, while others managed to live through the hardness of all these years.
  The King is pretty old now, the hardship on the living didn't make the situation any better.
  King Lorin have passed away aboard CNS-15322 Swiftwing, at 2421.11.18 21:28 Earth Standard Time.

  A stone house of typical Olani construction located on the south hemisphere of the planet in a rural region, the King, his family and entourage has been living there for the entire duration of their exile.
  Enemy presense on this planet is very low, at most a Tyrilian agent with a few paid Olani informers according to report, it used to be much more though, their number reduced as the time passes.
  Also the Swiftwing's presence here should have been a surprise for Tyrilian Empire, for the secrecy nature of the mission.
  An encrypted message was sent to Tyrilian Empire after the away team reached Olan. The presence of Swiftwing is no secret now.
  Another message was sent near the end of Turn 10.

  As the political and religious symbol of planet Cril, this very important item is not with the King at this time. The King have hidden it away on a remote planet at the beginning of his exile at Planet Sigma 756. Tyrilians will most likely want to steal this item.
  The Power of Times granted by the Crown is an ESP-like phenomenon activated by a certain type of brainwave that was present in the brain of certain members of royal family of Cril, and the crystal on the Crown is sensitive to such waves, the person possessing just the right brain wave would clear it. This effect has been duplicated in computer simulations. After all, the most likely explanation for the story was an intervention by a much more advanced alien race, even when compared to Confederation.

  Princess Cila shall rule as Queen of Covenant of Cril when she returns to Cril, but not without first retriving the Crown of the Covenant from Planet Sigma 756. Go to Sigma 756 to meet Shal'Qah, a local avian tribe leader in Shal'a mountain range, for help, he knows the location of the crown. King Lorin shall leave too, to confuse Tyrilians.

  Crilite protocols are largely similiar to humans as they are very similiar in both their biological and social evolution path. One thing of note is that Crilites consider the focus of attention very important.

  A bit similiar to diabetes to Humans before it's treated, but more deadly. Needs a periodic injection of holulin in order to survive. And if left untreated, the result will be similiar to carbon monoxide poisoning, in which the oxygen-carrying capability of blood cell will be gradually lost, which will result in suffocation and death. This disease will worsen if under stress, careful medical treatment is absolutely necessary.
  As an inborn genetic defect, the Chronic Choriocytosis is caused by a lack of enzyme, the Holulin, necessary in Crilite's physiology.

  The Covenant marked the start of the current Crilite Dynasty, which was born hundreds of years ago. Also of utmost religious importance to Crilites.

  ...And it came to pass that the second god Dal saw the long table Keulane made; and Dal said “Was this made from one piece, whole, cut in a single stroke from the heart of the largest tree in the land?”
Unbowed (for he feared not the god Dal), Keulane speak “Yes, and with my own hand. Let this table replace the field of battle. Let the people reveal their hearts with true words and not sword thrusts. Let this wood, from the tree’s heart, be the heart of Shad, one world united forever.”
And Dal answered: “It shall be, Keulane. I shall give you dominion over Things and Creatures-Not-Man.”
And the god Dal gave his blessing, rendering the sword of Keulane, that cut the tree in a single stroke, as Strength with dominion over Things and Creatures-Not-Man. Keulane added this to his dominions over Heaven, given by the fourth god Koh; and over Land and Sea, given by the third god Adar. It remained for him to gain the blessing of the first god Iyan, God among Gods, and dominion over Man.
And so Keulane waited, for he felt it was his reward, but Iyan came not to him. At long last, Keulane cried out: “Have I not earned this?”
A bolt of blinding light and roaring thunder smote the sword
from Keulane’s hands, and he trembled at the voice of Iyan, God of Gods: “You are foolish, Keulane. No man can have dominion over Men. You can only guide them. We will not speak to you again in this life. We will never speak directly unto you again, but we will give you this.”
And the hand of Iyan placed the Crown of Shad upon Keulane’s head. It was of silver, and of crystals, a pair whose inner depths were murky and fogged to the eye and mind of man. Do you hear and see my voice?”
Keulane answered that he did, but he did not, for the eye and ears of his heart were closed by fear. Iyan knew, and he shook Keulane to his very soul. “Hear me!”
And lo, the crystals of the Crown became clear through, with the blue of Heaven as their shade. And Keulane felt his heart open, and he saw clearly, and heard. He knew the echoes of the past, and felt the tides of Time. And he knew the roads the People of Shad would take, if only he could lead them there.
“You have the Power of Times,” Iyan told him. “Thus shall you and your sons and daughters lead. Of the children you beget, only special ones in their time will have the Power. They will wear the Crown, the crystals will give them sight, and the People will hail them as Kings and Queens of the Covenant...
—Book of Shad,
Verse of Keulane
(Shad is Cril in this adaption.)

  There's a spy in King's entourage, who have sold part of King's plan to Tyrilians, and now Tyrilians know that the ship is going to retrieve the crown, but doesn't know where the crown is according to report from Confederated Intelligence.
  Tyrilians wants to steal the crown for their own glory, and to control Cril.
  Tyrilians doesn't know anything happened aboard Swiftwing since its departure, including King Lorin's death, which they would be glad to know.
  Tyrilians COULD have deducted the usage of shuttle from Swiftwing's course if they know what Swiftwing was up to.
  King Lorin asked for a traditional Crilite burial before his death from Batista, but doesn't have time before passing away to fill out the details. His Royalty's servant most assuredly knows about this.
  One of King's servant. Nil has just teleported down on the surface with the job of finding his mason to make the urn, with a hidden communicator on him.
  Swiftwing's location: In orbit of Ellon III, 14 days to Sigma 756, 15 days to Cril.[/b]

Background: Nirur is a fairly recent graduate from fleet school. When he was a child, his role model was Frederick, a teenager who lived next door. Ever since Frederick became a fleet officer, Nirur had dreamed of his own command.
In fleet school, he scored excellent marks on his engineering tests, but barely passed his personal combat training. After graduating, he was dismayed that his girth prevented him from passing the physical tests. He spent the next several months working at a fleet dock, where he gained experience building and repairing ships, rapidly being promoted to a team leader due to his skills, and eventually becoming the leader of an entire shift. He continued exercising, and passed the fleet's physical aptitude tests on his second try.
With the skills he learned in the dock, and with recommendation of Frederick, an experienced captain by this point, he was granted the position as head of the engineering on this starship. He now eagerly awaits his chance to prove himself.

Name: Sxtan
Race: Ki'scri'caa. An arthropod species which has eight limbs (lower two pairs are walking limbs, the upper two are manipulatory), vaguely resembles a cross between a mantis and a scorpion and an antman, and is about the height of a typical human. Also, their respiratory system evolved in a similar way as mammals, that is, they have the equivalent of lungs and are able to hold their breath.
Gender: Male
Age: 30
Rank:[4]Lieutenant junior grade
Appearance: (see above for general physical appearance) A light metallic blue carapace with dark green mottling on the back, has distinctive lighter green striping and spots on the face which are used for individual identification, every pattern is unique. The upper pair of limbs roughly resemble a humans in function, except they have four claws total, two are the equivalent of fingers and two (one on either side of the hand) function as thumbs)

Background: Hailing from a Ki'scri'caa frontier colony world, he started his career in science quite early as was his interest, so he has gotten used to working in rugged terrain. However, despite the opportunities right there on his birthworld, he was well aware of the outside universe and when he came of age, signed up for the CNF. Its been a couple of years since he graduated from the academy, so this is probably his second or third assignment.

Background: Having grown up in a lower-middle class family star ship command was not a likely option for Flint when he was growing up but like many other children he was raised on stories of the exploits of the heroes of Confederation Navy and he quickly set his sights. Flint doesn't often talk about how he managed to get into the academy or the inquiry that was ordered relating to it, but regardless there was not enough evidence to press charges, unfortunately Flint still carries this blemish on his report. Life in the academy was easy enough Flint had trained his body to peak athleticism and was a naturally talented shooter. The academic side provided more of a challenge but Flint worked hard and passed with an impressive record showing excellent talent in his martial skills and was placed on security.
Flint has served on one ship and his relatively lower class upbringing saw him get along very well with the other crew members. Of course the questionable way he was able to get into the academy in the first place saw tensions between him and his officers however nothing too drastic ever came to pass. And excellent repour with crew members as well as a heroic performance in one of only two instances of space combat saw Flint promoted and he was sent back to Earth ready for his new posting.

Swan-class light cruiser, produced from 2316 to 2340, first ship CNS-12434 Swan launched from Earth Navy Spaceyard at 2316.7

CNS-20283 Little Swan(Last Ship of the class)   Current, StarStation 23

Launched from Utopia Planitia Staryard, Mars at 2325.11 and entered service at 2326.3
The Swiftwing is one of the first(and sadly, also one of the last) ship of Swan-class Light cruiser.
Equipped with top-of-the-line technology, facility and equipment at it's prime, Swan-class formed a large part of the effective defence force throughout the last century, and performed well in both the Second and Third War, and as a result, many ship of this class has been lost in battle.
Originally designed with a service lifespan of 80 years, Swan-class performed beyond all expections, and is certfied of an additional lifespan of 20 years(Actually mainly because of the Third War).
Now this class of ship is meeting its end even with its extended lifespan, and began to show all sort of problem with aging.

As retrieved by Nirur Torir:

Main Hull:
  Length: 245.9 meter
  Height: 39.6 meter
  Width: 48.1 meter
 Total(incl. Hyperlight Engine):
  Length: 297.1 meter
  Height: 47.9 meter
  Width: 97.5 meter
This ship is relatively small for a light cruiser, only slightly larger most heavy destroyer nowadays, but still well-armored when compared to destroyers even with it's age.
It's called Swan-class for a reason, for its long, wide and downswept HL engine pylon connecting elongated main hull and long HL engine.
It's also capable of minimal atmospheric operation, but not landing except in absolute emergency because of the downswept and fixed HL engine pylon, and lack of landing strut. An emergency landing can be a premature end of the ship's service life.

As retrieved by Batista:

The ship has entered service in 2326.3, it's first Captain is Lt. Commander Frakes, who served aboard the ship for 19 years before his KIA in battle at 2340.11.
It have helped mapping out 277 systems, taking part in 596 combat action, destroyed(by major contribution) the following ship by class:
156 Frigates
42 Destroyers
9 Light Cruisers
1 Heavy Cruiser.
And had completed 14 diplomacy missions, 3 intelligence missions and 1 first contact situation.

Record of Major event:
2325.11 Launched
2326.3 Entered Service
2331.4-2342.9 Second War, Damaged and salvaged 2 times at 2338.5, 2340.11

 2 Confederated Heavy Weaponery ATT-2C Antimatter torpedo tube (both on fore, 80 power to fire each, 80/80 Ammo: 60 Standard CHW-Mk2 Antimatter torpedo, 20 CHW-Mk2E EMP torpedo(Heavy damage to shield and have a good chance to fry some delicate systems, low structral damage), self-guided, arc Fore 30 degree, Dorsal/Ventral 15 degree)

As retrieved by Para(Paranatural):

The newest weaponery aboard the ship are the twelve General Weaponery GWHEP5-MK2P HEPPC Cannon mounted on port and starboard of the ship, replaced its predecessor in the 2400 refit, you checked your Combat Starship Simulator, and seems like the information in the simulator is pretty accurate, you chilled in your spine.
The oldest is the two Confederated Technology HEP8-MK3A-3 Triple mount HEPPC Array, which is already mounted since the ship's entrance into the service in 2326.
You also notes that the power requirement that listed on the operation manual is the power requirement to fire one of the multiple cannon mounted on the same point.
Also noted is that the 2 main cannon mount's power conduit is directly connected to the reactor core itself, possibly field-modified some years before, that allows more power on the main cannon mount as long as reactor's up, but will cause complications if the core is down, this also incresed the risk of damage in case of an overload feedback from the cannon.
The intergrity of the Weaponery Powergrid is pretty good despite its age, at least when compared to other systems of the ship.

 Propulsions:

By bypassing some safeguards and strengthening the sensor power grid, the ship's sensor array can be made to send a high-powered hyperspace ping. Estimations:
Power taken: 450 power unit
Normal Cooldown: 1 minute
Possible Adventages:
  Much longer detection range and much higher sensitivity for a frame.(+(1d2+3) to Sensor Use roll, +3 to following Scanner Analyzing roll, for once.)
Possible Disadventages:
  Very small chance to damage or burnout the sensor array.(Another 2d10 is rolled, Damage on 3-5, Burnout on 2)
  Lights up the ship, and other things nearby, like a Christmas tree on every ship's sensor readout across several tens of lightyears.(Alerts others of the ship's, as well as others illuminated by the ping's, presence.)

 Facility:
 Old(Poor) Science Facility(stat.disadv. to -1 to science roll),Well Maintainanced(Stat.Adv to science roll), Wide-ranged

Equipment status of Science department:
They are old. Logically one would assume that they won't be good for research as researching is a mainly cutting-edge job, and logic triumphs yet again.
Most of them dates back to 2350s, maintainance is very good, but their capability and precision has been degraded too much to be entirely acceptable.
Replacement at first chance is logical, but might not be practical, as we are this ship's last crew, serving in her last assignment cycle.

Reduction in functionality mainly caused by equipment aging, thus unrepairable.
The ship itself in combat efficiency is comparable to a newer medium destroyer, with strength in Armor, Shield and Point-defense effectiveness, and weakness in Maneuverabilty and Speed when compared to one of such ship. However this ship cannot hope to handle a newer light cruiser on itself, at least not in its current state of maintainance, the last crew should be reassigned to ground duty for their disregard on maintainance and bad attitute toward the next crew.
P.S. The Food Synthesizer in Officer's lounge is now repaired, turned out to be a prank.

The largest crew quarter on deck 3 has been installed with a biobed for His Royalty. His daughter and entourages are also living in adjacent quarters.

Spoiler: Misc Facts (click to show/hide)

Lieutenant J.g. Sxtan's Ki'scri'caa Brown Tea is poisonous by causing severe diarrhea to anyone other than himself, but as long as others don't take the wrong cup there should be no problem.
Me, Lieutenant J.g. Faden's feather might cause a few crew a minor allergic reaction, mainly minimal sneezing, none of the senior officer is allergic to my feather though.
There might still be undiscovered allergic and pathological reactions, but that would need time to discover.

Cephid 17 is a binary system, 1205.2 lightyears away from Earth which is at the border between Core and Frontier systems of the Confederation of star.
Swiftwing should be able to reach the destination within a half year if everything went all right on a cruise speed factor of 6.0 and stay on the +1.0 Hyperspace highway.
Nothing much is interesting in the way though, as this is a pretty busy spacelane and everything around has been througthoutly studied.
(This information is pretty useless now)

A Tr'cic is a powerful predator which resembles an insectoid velociraptor with a barbed tail. It's native to the frontier world that Sxtan was born on.
As a result of being covered in chitin, Sxtan cannot do facial expressions, his people use gestures and sounds to indicate emotion and other subleties of language.

On his homeworld:"It's like living on a living rock, the planet seems to be alive, tons resarches have been made to determine if it is or isn't a huge living organism orbiting our sun, personally I don't believe that crap. If you ever get to visit it, don't be surprised if the only thing you see is red, orange and yellow, our oil equivalent is actually red, we call it "The bloody juice", some religious fanatics say it is the blood of the planet."
A large part of Batista's early career is served on Planet Cril, as CNF's Advisory serving beside King Lorin, and has been friend of the King.

She'd started trimming her wing feathers after they caused her to botch emergency first aid on Ferrus. The patient lived, but lost an arm to infection. Since then, she simply hadn't felt confident enough in her abilities to allow her feathers to grow out.
She has alcohol intolerance.
She is the only avian serving aboard Swiftwing as of the start of the 20th assignment cycle at 2421.6.
Her homeworld:

The planet's name is Irir, the sun's name is Losir.
Irir is the second planet from Losir, and there are seven planets in the system total, though there are no gas giants.
Irir has two moons, the larger is called Toie and the smaller is called Eolin. Both have religious followings, but the worship of moon gods entered a steep decline when the Denedani became space-faring. Nevertheless, actually landing on either moon is forbidden world-wide.
The majority of Denedani are polytheistic, and the most popular god is Eki the Dancer, the trickster god.
There are seventy-two factions on Irir, each with their own government. Faden hails from a medium-sized representative monarchy (People get to vote for advisers, but the monarch has the final word) on the southern continent, called Ahierir.

Being a fan of starships since youth, he has a lot of Ship-in-a-bottle and other models in his quarter.
Para is romatically involved with the Crown Princess of Cril, Cila.

Look out for errors...More changes!
EDIT1:If I can get your actions I will be able to finish Turn 14 within 10 hours...Got some free time, will try to return it to one day per turn...

[Flintus10]

Make sure I am fully equipped and ask Faden if she'd prefer one of us stay behind with her while the others go and look for food.

[Faden]

"No, no, I'll be fine..." Though I don't feel fine at all. At least the medicine gets rid of the pain. I check out everyone, including myself, to see what medical treatments we might need.

[Flintus10]

"Well if you say so...*Flint looks a little unconvinced but soon shrugs it off* We had better go out and find some food, hopefully the shops around here will give us a tab eh? *smiles*

[Paranatural]

Para will  stay at his station, scanning with his sensors the area around them, watching for enemy ships, and also keeping a constant scan on Nil, watching his status, vitals and activities.

[Batista]

There isn't pretty much I can do this turn, I will make sure there are at least 3 Security guys ready to be beamed down in case Nil turns out to be a spy.

Para is forbiden to leave the ship, there's a reason we have a Security department. "Look man, I know you want to get out of here as fast as you can to be with her again, but don't do anything stupid, you are forbiden to leave the ship, I can't really afford to loose my tactical officer right now."

[Nirur Torir]

Not having much to do, I shall attempt to create triple-chocolate cakes with a food replicator, and eat three pieces. The cakes should be good for morale.

Nirur is slightly unhappy about the way things are going. He does not believe in either jeopardizing the peace in the region, or breaking a direct order, over a promise to honor a religious ceremony. He dislikes the thought that the spy may be getting away, yet he can do nothing. He is worried about the shuttle running out of supplies while they wait for the ship, or of them being forced to activate a beacon and be captured by Tyrilian. He is afraid of insubordination if he brings this up to anybody, so he will medicate his problems with delicious chocolate.
