Previously:

Hours into the launch of U.S.S Interceptor a sabotage of the ships new compulsion system, the hyperdrive, left the U.S.S Interceptor and its crew crippled and stranded in the middle of the Gamma Quadrant.

Soon after crew encountered an unknown ship, The Everness, which offered their assistance to repair the damages on U.S.S. Interceptor. Captain Archer and crew soon came to realize that the Tritons had another agenda and was forced into a battle of the U.S.S. Interceptor. With unexpected help from a group of travels, named the Maurier under the command of Captain John McAlister and his executive officer Commander Aeryn Sun, the crew of U.S.S. Interceptor broke free from the grip of the Tritons and escaped.

Episode 02: Vital Signs

Episode Briefing

Days after barely escaping, U.S.S. Interceptor and the Marauder keeps an low profile from their newfound enemy to avoid another confrontation.

The crew of U.S.S. Interceptor are still dealing with their new situation of being alone in the gamma quadrant and 40'000 light years away from home. Many ideas are given of ways to get home, but first the crew are set to repair the remaining damage of the ship and to keep hidden from their enemy. What they do now know is that the Trition have left a very dangerous 'gift' behind, which will have terrible consequences.

In the meantime rumors are spreading that there might be a saboteur aboard. An investigation is made and their suspension is confirmed, the new hyperdrive was sabotaged. The question is who was responsible and is that person still aboard?

What needs to be accomplished in this mission?

Primary Objectives


  • Captain Liz Archer finds a beautiful plant and are exposed to the pollen of the flowers which causes her to go into coma. (The gift from the Tritons) [She is not to be cured in this episode.]
  • Interceptor has to mine an asteroid for duranium to repair the hull and repair other damages of the ship.
  • The sabotage is confirmed but the saboteur, suspicion is directed towards Leighton. He is to be arrested and interrogated. [ Aiedo is, as everyone probably have read by now, the saboteur but not be reveled in this episode ]. Is it possible that he has found out the truth?
  • Escapes another close encounter with the Tritons.

Secondary Objectives


  • Love affair between two crewmen.
  • Makes new friendship with the Maurier.
  • Miles Archer acts out and is sent to the counselor.
  • Room for other character development about being stranded or other.


Happy Roleplaying!

Congratulations to all of the promotions! :)

If you find something missing in the objectives, let us know about it!

As you may have noticed Captain Archer have been put to the side for a little while, so you are all dealing with no Captain and being alone in the Gamma Quadrant. :) This was not planned from the beginning, but as it is now for a few months I am going to be a little busier than usual, due to RL events. To make sure my character will not slow things down, we decided to have her placed in a coma until this period is over and I know I can participate 100% (and use that to our advantage in the plot). My idea was to actually write about her collapsing, but I can add that later. I am still going to be around and when I have time I will probably play my other characters (which does not require the full attention which the role of the Captain of the ship requires).

Commander Maxwell will take over Liz job in her absence while she is in sickbay (unaware of what is happening) and second officer takes over as the role as XO. Feel free to visit Liz while she is in her coma, even if she is out she can still contribute to the story. Maybe she gets into a medical complication,.. you can write what ever you want to enrich the RP as long as she will survive it. lol...

Have fun RP!

Don't forget!

T'Mar or Aiedo is tagged by Kruger in his last post!! ( I think! :) )

Maxwell, what happened to that computer intrusion? Did Maxwell and Storm manage to identify the intruder or the location to the least? ;)

Well, read again captain.

The computer security breach that was logged came from Vince Leighton’s computer in engineering. He claimed that he hadn’t worked at that console at the time of the incident. Alister knew Kreuger had recuperated and would get on it as soon as possible. He would attend the promotion dinner first. Alister had made sure of that.

From my last post.

You've been working hard getting this conflabbed forum to work. I'll confirm, but I say this is an acceptable repercussion! We're behind you all the way, Skipper.

Hey, everybody (because I don't really know who can answer this)! I've mentioned this in the CBox, but since it's somewhat imperative, I''ll expand on it here.

I am not clear on the extent of Interceptor's damage, or even it's repairs, but if the hyperspace module(s) is(are) kaput, and transwarp/conventional warp drives have not been reestablished (or at least not fully), she may essentially be a sitting duck in hostile space.

It may have many uses over the course of the series, but for now, there is a small gift given to Jennifer by an old comrade named Ydallesogabes Nodt that possesses the information required to construct a makeshift FTL propulsion device. If this is needed or unneeded, could someone let me know? If so, I will then explain it's nature, instead of spilling it all (likely needlessly) here.

Well as far as I know the hyperdrive is damaged beyond fixing at this point (I guess what would require is a docking port and the knowledge to fix this, which not everyone have unless you are a part of the team creating it from the beginning.) So, for now this is out of the picture.

We do have transwarp/conventional warp still working, since the two (hyperdrive and warp) are in separated sections of the ship. Sure the warp might get damaged, but we used warp to get away from the Tritions and I would think that Lt. Cygnus have fixed the warp by now (its passed about two weeks since our first Trition encounter). So, we are not totally sitting ducks.. ^_^

Ok, to your last question... see spoiler!

Spoiler: click to toggle


You would have to tell me more about this FTL? Is it like the warp drive? You can send me an emails with the details and I consider the idea. It may be useful in the future.. :hehe:

So, .. :) there was some questions on the chatbox that I though was best to address here.

Maxwell
 
The Maurier, are they still with us?


Yes, that is the plan. The idea is that they will become our allies in this part of the galaxy (and later a important ally when engaging their home galaxy) or even part of our crew. The idea is that we get some new friends.

If someone would like to play John Mcalister, Sun or some other character from that ship, you can request access to such character.

Azon
 
So question....is the 'ceptor at warp now traveling to wherever? or is she just hangin' in space?


Hmm.., I guess that has not been established yet. It's up to us, how we want to play it. We are basically hiding from the Tritions, which are searching for us. They know we have a damaged ship, they would probably think that we wouldn't get any far and thus looking for us?

:P we are much closer to the Bajor Wormhole in the Gamma Quadrant than to our Federation. It would be probably be decided by Captain or Commander that we would try to aim for the wormhole (although it won't be there when we get there. But we do not know that yet.. ;) ) It will take us perhaps 1-3 years to arrive at that designation.

I can only imagine how that would feel, discovering that it's gone .. wait a minute, we going to explore that someday,... he he.

I can't decide, either we are hiding in some nebula or behind some moon or we are at warp. Take your best pick, .. and even if we are in hiding now, the Trition can always come and we have to escape them. So lots for possibilities the Flight Officers to write about!

When the Tritons had delivered their 'gift' to the crew, Commander Simmings had had an even worse reaction to the pollen that had affected the Captain than she had and had died within hours of inhaling it.


So, who actually knows about this 'gift'? I thought that no one knew, but I wanted to make sure. I was aiming for a lot of co operation between medical and Science to study the pollen, but if we have the plant it's a whole different matter. Then again, does it really matter? You're being revived at the end either way :P

Are we, perhaps, at warp on our way to a favorable mining site? I had thought we may end up in an asteroid belt somewhere, land inside one of the larger rocks until we're done. Anyone else have an idea?
