"Well, damn." I hiss, before speaking into my combadge. "Uh, Faden...we've been captured by sentients indigenous to this planet. They're big, mean...hairy...and they're about to sell us. To put it simply...we're fucked."

  [With some element of original material]
  "Well, damn."Nimitz hissed silently before speaking into thin air, all the tribesmen and tribeswomen nearby looked at him, confused and alerted. "Uh, Faden...we've been captured by sentients indigenous to this planet. They're big, mean...hairy...and they're about to sell us. To put it simply...we're fu--"
  Before Nimitz could finish, or Faden could respond, the silver-haired hunter, finally realized the nature of his livestock's little affair, ripped the combadge off Nimitz's uniform, crushed it under the heel of his heavy fur boot, then removed the rank insignia and badge of both man, crushed them too, and stared at Nimitz in such a way, which would make even an Ursarian[See additional background] cringe.
  "I believe he doesn't want us harmed."Flintus remarked in a low voice.
  "Besides strapping us of our rank...For now."Nimitz added, terrified and helpless.

  Nothing much can be done by our heroes now, at least not while being tied to a tree with rope. The tree was at least 1 meter wide, and pretty high. And the rope, by which Flintus and Nimitz are tied, was pretty primitive, but very tough, and was made of local plantlife. Then Flintus started to examine the market they were being sold in.
  [7-stat.penalty(Streetwise)]It doesn't take long for Flintus to notice that they were the only live goods on offer. Other goods included furs and clothings, tools made out of stone and woods, baskets of roots, leaves and berries, and even vegetables and fruits that seemed to be intentedly grown by locals. Villagers not involved as sellers started to fill into the market square. And he couldn't help but noticed a giant drum, which was made of hard wood and patches of tanned fur, in the centre of the square.
  A few minutes later, a particularly senior-looking tribesman walked into the centre of the square in front of the drum, looked into the overcasted sky with his wrinkled eyes, mumbled a few syllables to himself, then signaled the opening of today's market with three loud beats on the drum. At that signal, shoppers spreaded out and vendors started calling out repetitively, bartering in a language that neither he or Nimitz can understand.
  Then Flintus turned his attention to his captor, who was sitting a few meters before them, as a couple of buyers walked by him, he leapt to his feet and accosted them with the fervor of a veteran salesman.
  The couple were obviously reluctant, and they tried to leave, as the female tugged at the male' fur shirt. But the silver-haired hunter was not going to give up easily. He clamped a grip on the wrist of the male, picked up a fair-sized wooden stake, and walked toward Nimitz and Flintus, intending to show off how healthy his livestock was.
  "Uh-oh."Flintus murmured, as the shadows of two mountainously looming figures approached them.

------

  Faden slapped the cover of her communicator back silently, then placed it back into pocket, all without a word. Cila looked at her anxiously, and silently.
  "Let's get inside the shuttle, we've got to get them out of there." She grabbed Cila in the wrist, and climbed into the shuttle.

  Inside the shuttle, Faden gave her mini-pistol to Cila, and grabbed a Mk5 pistol for herself. "Eki knows how long this will take. We'd better get them before they're cooked in a pot or something!" She thought bitterly as she gave Cila another shot of Holulin, second time for today[Overdose, reduced effect, 1/4 effective time added], and double-checked the Holulin stock in her med-kit.
  After the necessary preparation, Faden and Cila headed out toward the river bank and forest. Just as they made it halfway between the place the river entering the forest, and the shuttle wreck , Cila heard something, and Faden too.
  [9]"You heard that?" Cila stuttered anxiously.
  [6]"Heard what?...I think I do."Faden said, as she turned her head to the direction of the sound, southwest into the forest."Sounded like...Drum."
  "And they must be there!"
  [10]"Follow me!" Faden exclaimed urgently, before grabbing Cila's arm with one of her wing hand, pulled out her pistol with the other, and charged toward the forest at V_R for her normal physiology. If only I can fly now, she thought even more bitterly, before she approached the edge of the forest, and slowed down.(Faden, Cila: Winded(-1 to -2 on strength, agility and endurance-related roll for a short time))

  The Wispy has crashlanded in a valley near the equatorial line of the planet. The Shal'a mountain range was around 100 kilometer to the north.
  To the north and west, around 2 kilometer, there was some hills the shuttle evaded during its descent, with the beginning of the Shal'a mountain range visible.
  To the south and east, a river was running, from east to south into the forest. it's about 700 meter distant. there are also hills in the other side of the river.
  A forest to the south, about 800 meters.
  A plain to the east, also with some hills.
  Shrubs exist around the place.
  The temperature was about 5 degree celsius, local time was early noon.
  Dense cloud covered the sky, there are no precipation.
  Wind was strong, but weaker than before.

  Faden and Cila are near the edge of the forest southeast to the shuttle, Flintus and Nimitz has been captured by natives, about 3 kilometers to south-west-west into the forest from the shuttle wreck.
  Nimitz and Flintus are being sold as slaves, as far as they can tell.
  The market has just opened, and there are a lot of local villagers around that place.
  Inside the shuttle, debris scattered throughout the entire place, also there are some gold and deep blue colored feather visible around.

  "Petty Officer 2nd class Nikolai, and Flint's Pride backup squad reporting for duty, Sir!"The leader of the reinforcement team reported to Nirur, just after they appeared in the crystalline glint of Swiftwing's teleporter beam.
  [5+2(Morale Management)]"Ok, crewman."Nirur responded."Guard the house, the tunnel entrance, and Crewman Archer, who is responsible for the communication of the team underground with all these interference, with your life. How will you accomplish this is at your discretion. Understood?"
  "Yes Sir!"The crewman snapped to attention and saluted Nirur, who saluted back and headed into the tunnel.

------

  "Nirur to Sxtan, you there?"Nirur opened his communicator as he and his engineer headed into the tunnel.
  "Yes, Lieutenant, holding position."
  "Better speed up, so we can capture the spy faster."Nirur switched off the communicator, as he is already beside Sxtan."I hate those communication blanket field! Have you identified its source or not? You're the science officer."
  "We should be. As of the source of the interference," Sxtan responded as they continued deeper into the tunnel."Maybe it was caused by a type of local mineral with special hyperspace field property, as I can't identify any type of powered communication scrambler on my scanner yet."
  "Speaking of mineral..."Nirur started, but accidentally slipped and has almost fallen."It's smooth!"
  "Yes. It seemed to have been molten for once. This tunnel was excavated by laser drills, as far as my scanner can tell."
  Just as Sxtan finished his statement, The tunnel stopped getting any deeper, and suddently widened into a junction.
  "Curious."Sxtan murmured to himself.

  Before them, the escape tunnel ended into another larger tunnel. The air here was warmer, and even more stale than it was in the escape tunnel, with slight tints of smell of electronics, machinery oil, and ozone. The wall of the larger tunnel in front of the party was uniformly rough, apparently excavated by heavy machinery a long time ago. Electrical cables, insulated, ran along the larger tunnel and mounted on the wall, some are thick, some are thin. Metal supports appear by an interval in the larger tunnel, these supports were old too, but still fully functional. The tunnel itself seemed almost sterile, free of rubbles, scraps of trash or dirt, and any sign of life. Also, there were two long pieces of old metal railing on the ground, its top surface was free of any rust, leading to both exit of the junction of the larger tunnel, a mine cart is on the railings, blocked a large part of one exit of the junction, it was empty. A faint resounding hum was audible in the tunnel, and the tunnel was dimly lit by halogen lights mounted on the metal supports.

  "The additional security squad is on the surface now, Captain."Para reported as he checked the sensors of the ship again.
  "Good. Now continue to keep an eye on it."Batista ordered.
  "I'm helpless." Para thought helplessly. "I can't do anything but sitting there, while Sxtan and Nirur have gone to surface, Nimitz, Faden, Flintus and Cila...Ah my..." He couldn't help but started to suspect that something bad happened to her."Nothing but checking sensors."He instinctively glanced at the readout screen, and suddently become alerted.
  [6(Sensor Use)-stat.penalty(Disturbed)]"Captain."He said urgently, staring on the sensor readings."I'm detecting teleporter signature on the main hyperspace readout...origin point not far away from Ellonikot...IT'S AIMED AT US!" Para's voice abruptly went up, and Batista looket at him, his face darkened.
  "Confirm."
  "CONFIRMED, CAPTAIN!"Still staring on the readout screen, Para screamed, almost maniacal. But something in Batista's mind told him this time it's real, as Para switched on intercom. "SOMEONE JUST BEAMED ABOARD OUR SHIP! MY GOD!...INTRUDER ALERT! ALL HANDS!"
  [1-stat.penalty(Pressure Management)]"Raise shields! Scan for them!"Batista ordered, his voice trembling, and eeriely calm, as crewmen rushed into Security to arm themselves.
  "Shields up! Intruder confirmed and located!" Para, still on intercom, screamed, albeit in a lower voice now. "Intruder and firefight detected in lower sub-light engine room on deck 7, main engineering on deck 8, main shuttle bay on deck 12, teleporter room on deck 4 and bridge, deck 1!"
  "Lock it down, PLANET MOTHER! PARA, LOCK IT DOWN!"Batista had lost his composure.(Batista: Stressed: -stat.penalty to -1 to all rolls)
  [4+2]"All system locked out and compromised section locked down, Sir!"
  "Good work Ensign!"Batista loudly exclaimed."Now grab a weapon! LET'S TEACH THEM NOT TO MESS WITH US!" Both of them rushed into the security storage, along with many other crew members.

  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 is Ellonikot, on the southern hemisphere of the planet. It's remarkably small for a planetary capital, Every settlement on Ellon III is like this.

  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...

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.

Science:Sxtan(smjjames)

Spoiler: Sxtan (click to show/hide)

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: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)
Profession: Science

Disadv. to -4 on damage roll against you depending on what you're up against at the discretion of GM)[For balancing off, and good characterization ], All-terrain(No reduce to -3 on terrain penalty depending on situation)

Disadvantages: Being a cold blooded species, he has problems in cold environments without special clothing, as such, he prefers ambient temperatures of at least 90 degrees Fahrenhelt (32 degree Celsius), but can handle standard temperatures (75 degrees F and 24 degrees C) quite well with a simpler heating garment under the crew outfit. Its when the temperature drops below 60(15 degree C) that he begins to slow down(disadventage on movement related roll) without protection, eventually going into torpor around 40 degrees(4 degrees C, All movement-related roll autofail on this point).

Not Small Arm user(8/10)

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.

Very good Conversationist(28/80)
Crash-Trained(Makeshift) First aid dispenser(0/20)

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

2372.6 Damaged and salvaged in skirmish along the Border
2400.2-2405.7 Third War, Major refit 2400.4-7, Damaged and salvaged at 2404.12

 12 General Weaponery GWHEP5-MK2P HEPPC Cannon(6 on each broadside, incapable of wide-beam, standard beam, 20 power to fire each array in standard mode, arc(Port: Port 170 degree, Dorsal 95 degree, Ventral 90 degree. Starboard: Starboard 170 degree, Dorsal 95 degree, Ventral 90 degree))
 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.

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 mistakes!
EDIT1: Note: Faden modified her actions on #Agora.
EDIT2: Nevermind that misaligned temporary cave map, the escape tunnel should be aligned to the junction. Should replace that soon...

"Heh I don't know what she wants from us but if you want to nominate yourself...I can live with that." Flint shifted hiding his nervs behind a smile. His face became more serious as the creatures approached (Whisper) "Maybe if we act as troublesome as possible we can at least buy ourselves some time before one of these lugs buy us?"

Noctis, as for a graphics tool/program, you can use MS paint (or equivalent on Mac) if you have to, but theres a bunch of free paint programs out there. I'd recommend Paint.NET, its a great graphics drawing and stuff program.

I used GIMP, and to a lesser extent, MS Paint, along with other map generators/strategy games to make/process those images already done.
Same rule should apply...since simply painting the tunnel map, or anything out with mouse will...not end up so well
Maybe I could use the new 0.31.06 version of DF to create this

[Batista]

Sorry guys I've been rather busy with my school final and relationship problems, I'll skim through what I haven't read in this read and post my action as soon as I can.

[Paranatural]

(Hmm, I have Arrogant and 'Works well under pressure' traits, I don't think I'd about get hysterical over bring boarded.)

Para puts on some Standard Issue Light Security Armor and arms himself with an Action Belt, Confederated Technology DMK5 HEPPC Mini-Pistol, 2 Energy cells for it, and a Security Knife, if allowed.

He also tries to get enough time to find a PDA-type device he can use to turn off and on force fields, lights and other functions in the areas of the ship being attacked. Also, it should be able to monitor the ships sensors while he is away from his station, if possible.

While he gets everything ready, he thinks back on what tactics training he has to best prepare him for this situation, additionally considering the possibility of being attacked by ships while distracted by being boarded.

After being so prepared, he awaits from orders from the captain as to where to go and what to do..

Grab myself a class 3 weapon from the armoury and a some flashbang equivalents and proceed to the compromised zone.

Keep morale up. Motivational speech. "During the last months we went from simple merchants to Saviors of this whole Sector, we watched a king die, we gave 3 of our best men to help his daughter, we got betrayed, we got BETTER. Now all we have to worry about are some fucking SOB's in one of the lower rooms. Let's show them how we treat guests."


Everyone who isn't me, Para or the security team is to remain armed and ready to help but away from the fight.

I'll ask an eingeneer to remain on the bridge to provide the room's blueprints and radio support.

Maybe I overdid the temporary effect part of your disadventage in writing...will be more careful

In all this time, Batista and Para has been in Security, and the bridge is one of the compromised area, that's why Batista ordered Para to lockout all system immediately.
EDIT1: The descriptive map of Swiftwing's character sheet included the defence status of the ship.

[Nimitz]

Whoops, sorry. Sure, I wouldn't mind moving to the Agora. I'm signing up right now.

I stare at Flintus in disbelief and whisper harshly. "What?! Pardon my language, but FUCK no, pal." I sigh. I'm pretty stressed out; We're trapped, we can't contact the Swiftwing, and I have no idea how Faden and Cila are going to get us out of here. Joking isn't going to help my mood. "To answer your other question, uh...I doubt it. It'll probably just piss 'em off, which is a very, very bad thing." I simply wait for the moment, unsure of what I should do."

[Flintus10]

"Well I wish there was something we could do, I don't like some of the gestures they are using. Man I wish I had my weapons right now, hell even a freakin' large stick and I'd be happy. Anythings better than just waiting for the other two to hopefully find us...And even if they do they aren't fighters and Faden is injured anyways things would be far more conveniant if our positions were swapped. Blah I don't like this situation at all, so damn helpless"

[Faden]

"Ready or not, here we come..." I mutter, as I move through the forest, trying to be as stealthy and quiet as possible. If only my feathers had regrown! I've got to keep my eyes and ears open, I don't want to get caught like Flintus and Nimitz. Once we near the market, I have Cila scout ahead a bit and assess the situation. I know it'll be difficult, but I'm just too visible.
