This is a new project I'm working on called The USS Dynamo. Set in the
universe of Star Trek it takes place somewhere after the episode "Defiant"
in the middle of season 3 of Deep Space Nine.
The Starship Dynamo is a secret Starfleet project. Its mission is to explore the Gamma quadrant, to find out everything there is to know about the Dominion and if possible find allies in other races.
Chapter 1: Meet the Senior Staff of the USS Dynamo.
Commanding officer: Captain Eleanor Richards. Born on Betazed as, she is half Betazoid, half-human; human fathers' identity unknown to her. She was known to be a very bright girl and was many years ahead of her time. At the age of 11 Cardassians, reason unknown, kidnapped her and her mother. Her mother was killed shortly after their capture and she was assumed dead as well. She managed to escape her captures and fled as a stow-away passenger on a Ferengi transport ship. She was left on a space station and travelled around to numerous places in the universe for the next couple of months trying to avoid the Cardassians, until a Klingon found her and took her back to the Klingon Homeworld with him. She remained there for the next 4 year where she lived the life of a Klingon and learned the art of fighting with a bat´telh. She won several bat´telh competitions and was awarded the title of honorary Klingon Warrior as the first outsider. She left the Klingon Homeworld again on her 16 birthday when she found out that the Cardassians where after her again. She fled to the one place that she thought was the exact opposite of where she had just come from; Vulcan. On Vulcan she spent 1½ years living a life of logic until she fled once again. She then roamed around for the next six months and was finally caught by the Cardassians who held her for six months until she was rescued by the a starfleet ship that she managed to get a message out to. After this she went back to earth, trained and studied hard and finally entered Starfleet Academy. Today, given her unique background and experience she is one of the finest in the fleet.
First Officer: Commander Britnaay Thelloren. Britnaay is a mystery. She is 100 % loyal to her uniform and serves with honor. But unlike the Captain her personal history is not public knowledge of the universe. She is K'tarian but little is know about her heritage. She keeps her private life very private, but nonetheless she is very friendly. She and the Captain go way back, they were room-mates and friends at the Academy.
Second officer/ Science officer: Lieutenant Commander Danar Ral. Joined male Trill. Danar is host number 6 to the symbiont Ral. Danar was in his second year at Starfleet Academy when he received word that a symbiont was waiting for him on the Trill Homeworld. After the joining his scholar profile improved by almost 30% and he graduated top of his class. Danar was a loner without much confidence before he was joined. His abilities were there, but he was too shy to speak up, therefore they went unnoticed. The joining with Ral gave him the confidence he needed and therefore his grades improved. He is still trying to separate the lives of the former hosts from his own, and often (too often) mentions how one of the former hosts did this or that. His has a tendency to think that his newfound confidence is purely due to the symbiont, instead of realizing that he had it in him all along and just needed a push.
Chief Engineer: Lieutenant Commander Bail Tessa, young Bajoran female. Tessa grew up in the Bajoran labor camps. When she was fourteen her entire family was killed by a Cardassian raid attack. She then fled the camps and stowed away on a cargo ship. She roamed around the Galaxy as a stowaway on different ships, until she was caught. A Starfleet officer took pity on her and took her back to earth to live with his family. His wife was an Engineer and a Starship designer and Tessa clung to every word she was taught. It quickly became obvious that Tessa was a natural when it came to Engines, and when she joined Starfleet Academy some years later, there was no doubt in her mind as to what her major would be.
Chief Medical officer: Doctor Matthew Walker, rank Lieutenant Senior grade, human male, goes by the name Matt among friends. Lived a sheltered life on earth, has yet to experience real pain or loss. Became a doctor because it was a long tradition in his family. Matt is an optimist, always looks at the bright side, and always has a smile on his lips to the point of being annoying. He also has a bit of an odd streak to him, not quite normal but a professional when it comes down to it. Everyone who knows him says that they have rarely seen him sad or angry. Matt has only had the Starfleet medical training and has yet to experience real fieldwork. Nevertheless, he is a genius at his profession and graduated top of his medical class.
Security officer/ Tactical: Lieutenant (junior grade) Jesad, Vulcan male. Jesad is the typical Vulcan, logical down to the last. Like most Vulcans not much is know about him personally.
Navigator/ Operations officer: Ensign D´Anit Carter, female, half Klingon, half-human. Her father was Klingon, her mother was a human Starfleet officer. They lived on the Klingon Homeworld until she was 12, but when her father got killed in honorable combat her mother took her back to earth. Here she decided to join the tradition of her human side and went to Starfleet Academy. But her fathers' teachings of the Klingon way still lurk around in her mind, and so does her violent Klingon temper. She does however know how to pilot a Starship.
