Welcome aboard the USS Missouri!
Vis Ad Libertatem (Strength for Freedom)
Vis Ad Libertatem (Strength for Freedom)
The year is 2400. Across the Federation, people are gathering to ring in not just the new year, but the new century. For those gathering at Camp Khitomer, there are more reasons to celebrate, for in less than a week's time, the shakedown cruise of a brand new Bellerophon class starship is set to commence, marking the return of a legendary name; the USS Missouri, made famous by the third Iowa class battleship of Earth's Second World War, and in more recent years by the adventures of Kagami Izumi.The officer selected to lead this momentous occasion was Commander Patricia Cooke, granddaughter of Major Francine Cooke, who served aboard the Excelsior class USS Missouri during the Dominion War and distant descendant of Fireman 1st Class Harry Francis Cooke, who served aboard the legendary Iowa class battleship in World War II. Now, over 450 years later, Patricia is the third Cooke to serve aboard a Missouri and the first Cooke to command one.
However, just hours into the new year, jubilation turns to terror when I-400, an artificial intelligence developed as a galactic peacekeeping initiative, attacks the New Year's party, declaring there to be only one path to peace: The Federation's extinction.
With I-400 now on the loose, the Missouri's shakedown cruise is expedited, with Cooke given orders to track down and stop I-400. However, it won't be easy, as the galaxy is a large place, and even the Missouri might not be fast enough to stop I-400.
The USS Missouri is a Play-by-Nova Star Trek roleplaying game set in the year 2400. Our mission is to investigate the weird and wacky, from Rogue AI to years-old cold cases. We are currently serving in Theta Fleet under Area 51 and are under the command of Commander Patricia Cooke. Our content rating is "2/2/2" or "18+"

Mission: Impending Midnight
Posted on Thu Feb 6th, 2025 @ 2:48am by Lieutenant Sara'draphia T'eseri & Lieutenant Pharos Ventari
While packing hadn't taken as long as Pharos would have expected, it did take longer to try and get everything else squared away for his departure from the starbase; handing off a couple outstanding projects, completing some personnel reviews, and making sure the duty roster was updated to reflect his absence. With things sorted out, and his non-essential belongings put temporarily into storage, the engineer guided a grav-sled with everything he wanted to take with him, directing it up the boarding ramp to the security checkpoint at the end. With a nod of greeting, he presented his transfer orders to…

Standing in the middle of her new Sickbay, Sara was eager to give her new sickbay a test run. All this fancy equipment just sitting here waiting to be played with. “Alright, let’s make a start” she said to herself before tapping her combadge, “Captain Cooke, this is Dr T’eseri, can I see you in sickbay at your next convenience?”
"Of course, I'll be right down." Came Patricia's response.
Patricia could appreciate a doctor that took initiative in getting their crewmates' exams done. She hadn't had one since she was still First Officer on the Sandusky. When the call came…

Patricia was in her ready room. Her fourth rank pip gleamed on her chest. She had read the note from Admiral Soryuu when she had returned to the ship. The letter had strongly recommended that Patricia appoint a Second Officer before departing, on the off chance that both she and Tsukasa were incapacitated during the upcoming battle, and Patricia knew there was only one person she would trust with the job: Once she heard from Security that Akira had been discharged from Sickbay, she knew what she had to do next:

When Patricia returned to the Missouri, she returned to her ready room, expecting to handle all the personnel transfers that came with being docked at a Starbase. Lieutenants Ezazzan and Kerr were both being reassigned, adding their names to a long list of officers who had only served the Missouri for a short time. So those were two big ticket items in the crew transfers.
However, when Patricia arrived back to her ready room, there was something present on her desk that hadn't been there when she left: A small wooden box placed right in the middle of her work…

Previously, on Star Trek: Missouri:
However, it was a few seconds that Lissa didn't have, for just as she was about to enter the emergency command, someone hit a control panel on the Cradle. Under normal circumstances, this would mean that the Cradle would have bricked itself and become useless to all parties. However, since Iona was presently hooked up to the Cradle, the AI must have attempted to power the biobed by itself, for the Cradle began to go haywire and surge.
"What the fuck?" Patricia exclaimed.
And now, the continuation:
After several seconds of deafening confusion, with a…

Chief Counsellors Log Number One, Lieutenant JG Eradaar Ezazzan speaking.
It has been a week since I departed the USS Poseidon and left my mate, Lieutenant Lazarus Kord, behind. Whilst we have kept close contact with one another, I would be greatly remiss in stating anything other than a great sadness at our parting. Lazarus has been my rock and foundation since the very inceptions of our feelings for one another. I understand now a few things about us, about our situation and uniqueness.
Lazarus was an outcast in his own home. His situation I cannot state here openly, but…
