Conflict has been more prevalent in Starfleet than exploration for the last thirty years. The peaceful ideal of exploration, while still at the heart of every Starfleet officer, has been tempered by the reality of the galaxy they live in. The Borg, the Cardassians, the Dominion, the Romulans. There’s been no shortage of enemies who wished to see the end of Starfleet and of the Federation and despite being victorious time and time again, Starfleet once more finds itself at the edge of conflict. Looking in and wondering when they’ll get back to being explorers.The 9th ‘Obsidian Fleet’ stands at the edge of Federation space; a staging point for Starfleet, a beacon of the Federation for the local inhabitants, and a bastion against the oncoming conflicts of the sector. Deep in the Loki system, orbiting the the planet Obsidian III, is the Stardock class starbase known as Obsidian Command. From this vantage, the Joint Fleet Command sees to the leadership of the 9th Fleet and serves as the rally point for them all.
In 2395 unexplained forces drew the entirety of the Starbase into a spatial void. Crew were evacuated, supplies jettisoned and only a skeleton crew remained. Their job was to try to discover what had drawn the starbase into this void and, more importantly, manage a way to return the Station back to real space. In its absence, the sector was thrown into disarray. The balance of power between the Federation, the Romulans, and the Typhon Pact was thrown into chaos. For eighteen months this chaos continued before somehow, miraculously, the USS Vesta discovered the skeleton crew of the Starbase reaching out and devised a way to bring the Starbase back to normal space. Upsetting the balance once more, only this time in favor of the Federation.
Obsidian Command is once more the home to scientists, explorers, diplomats, warriors, shopkeepers, and the civilian families that come along with that. Here, you can find yourself face to face with the your worst enemy, or spend hours aimlessly wandering the shops and stalls of the Promenade. If you’re looking for an adventure, a quiet place to open your shop, or anything in-between, then Obsidian Command is the place for you. Join us today, and be a part of history.

Temptation, staring at him with insolence, was there for a third UBC. Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburger. There were two of them left on a tray emblazoned with the Starfleet logo. They could both be his... They put roasted beetles and fried grasshoppers to shame, and it was a wonder how his…

“That the Davit guy?”
It was dim in the observation hall when Lofthammer led the way inside. Calliope was still in her event getup as she came up to the one-sided glass of the interview room. She could see inside as Deputy Marshal T’Sai questioned an obstinate Tellerite. The Vulcan…

"Deputy Marshal T'sai to Lieutenant Lyons." The insistent but vulcanoid voice transmitted over the security badge of the team lead. It was known among the Security personnel that the Marshals aboard the station had taken an active role in peacekeeping, integrated with the duties of officers and assigned on watches…

Calliope lagged a little in the line as she waited for a refill of the plate of roasted vegetables to be refilled. She kept an eye on Brek as he piled a plate high with dense, rich foods and remembered what the Gallery owner had just said about having been…

Ooc: This takes place after “The Whisper Network”.
Right now, Brek's main concern was that ‘his’ Ferengis wouldn't give Commander Zahn too much attention. Especially the way she was dressed. A row of pips would command respect. A shiny dress, less so. He needn’t worry though, because his group had…
