Welcome to the USS Washington-E!
Welcome to the USS Washington-E, a post-Dominion War sim. The year is 2386. The Dominion War has been over for several years, but its aftermath is still unfolding. The Federation and the Romulans are the only two major powers, and only the Federation is stable, to a point. The Klingon Empire is still rebuilding and addressing its many wounds from the war, Cardassia is in shambles and occupied, and the Romulans are in far worse shape because of their own misdeeds than they would have outsiders believe. The Federation is now the lone superpower in the Quadrant, a role it neither wants nor enjoys. Exploration has returned, but the dangers of space have never been more pronounced. Welcome to the USS Washington, where danger and adventure lurk around every corner.

The first half of the year ended with us wrapping one mission and starting a new one, and it seems that everyone has taken to the new mission and writing is prolific again. While July is a special month for the ship and the fleet as a whole, we can't ignore what happened in June. I thank everyone for great work and look forward to seeing what else we'll see happen in this mission that everyone seems to be getting in on. Below are the awards for June.

It always seems to come around quickly, and so it is that another month has passed into the history books. May was another good month as a whole, with lots of posting, the end of one mission, the start of another, and at the end of the month, the welcoming of two new players. As we move into the summer, historically the best time for simming, things look like they are moving full speed ahead for the crew of the Washington.
Below you will find the monthly awards. I wish to congratulate all our winners. It was a great month,…

Mission: Wounds From the Mirror
Posted on Mon Jul 14th, 2025 @ 12:44pm by Commander Jonathan Grayson & Lieutenant Imik S'Niohun
OOC: No reason, just miss writing with you my friend.
OOC: Why thank you kind sir, lets have some fun.
IC:
Jon was in his ready room, he was thinking of having to deal with Mirror Shran again and he wanted Imik's input on making sure security was at its highest with no loopholes or weaknesses in it. He tapped his combadge. "Grayson to Imik. Imik can you come by my ready room when you have a chance?"
On hearing Jon's request for her to report to him, she handed her console over to a junior Security Officer. "Imik to…

Mission: Wounds From the Mirror
Posted on Mon Jul 14th, 2025 @ 12:33pm by Lieutenant Seth Travis & Lieutenant Commander Shoniara T’ghann-Travis MD
The room was silent and dark except for the soft electronic hum or the occasional beep of the machines as they get a vigil over their charge. The only light coming from their displays. Seth lay on the biobed, his eyes shut as his chest slowly raised. From the casual observer Seth may look like he was at peace if one can be a peace from being shot with a disrupter at close range. However, his mind was awhirl as he hovered between life and death. He thought of his beautiful, loving wife Shon, she was missing, presumed to have…

Mission: Wounds From the Mirror
Posted on Sun Jul 13th, 2025 @ 10:59am by Captain Shran dh'Klar & Lieutenant JG Kate Kono & Lieutenant Seth Travis & Lieutenant JG Benjamin "Ben" Dalton & Lieutenant JG Viviana Del Rio
A medic and two security officers approached at speed towards the down officers. Shasta sobbing, she mentioned her father was in their quarters injured as well. The medic handed a device to one of the security officers and told him to use it on Kate. She knelt down and scanned Ben, then quickly moved over to Eislyn. She pulled out a hypo and injected Eislyn and then ordered that all three of them needed to be sent to sickbay immediately. She raced into the quarters with Shasta following, checking on Seth. Kate, Ben, and Eislyn dematerialized, and moments later materialized…

Mission: Wounds From the Mirror
Posted on Sun Jul 13th, 2025 @ 10:49am by Captain Shran dh'Klar & Lieutenant JG James Phoenix & Ensign Kasm & Lieutenant JG Viviana Del Rio
Viviana continued working in sickbay. She had been working for nearly five hours nonstop, but thankfully Dr. Perim had arrived with a security entourage to help stem the tide. The EMH was efficient, but she understood why Dr. Howard had such a dislike for the program. She wasn't particularly personable at the moment. Eislyn had come in with Kate and Ben a few hours earlier and she had to try to treat Eislyn, but sadly she had died. It was the first time Viviana had ever lost a patient, and she was dwelling on it despite trying to save everyone…

The vile Andorian jabbed the large crude clamping mechanism into Shon's ocular socket and gripped the eyeball, plucking it out and then with a quick crude swipe with his right hand which held a laser scalpel, the nerve bundle was severed. He looked at the eye in detail, studying it for a moment, and then tossed it into the corner near where the human female was chained. "You see," he began to speak, "a simple punishment for your defiance just as promised. Thankfully you have a spare. Marvelous redundancy the body can be, don't you agree?"
Shon couldn't help but…

Captain's Log
Supplemental
We have once again encountered the mythic Earth deities, this time the Celtic deities alone. We were studying a stellar core fragment when we discovered a planet in its path. As we approached the planet, we learned that it was inhabited, but more remarkably, the core fragment wasn't causing the planet any issues which was strange.
The planet was inhabited by humans. These humans were originally from Earth, Ireland specifically, and their ancestors had been brought to the planet by the Celtic gods roughly a millennia ago. Upon an away team beaming down which I joined, we…

Having arrived at my new home abord the USS Washington, I find it to be both different and yet the same as my time spent on Rock at the Academy.
My first few moments here were met with the same comments as my first few moments on Rock. Though at that time there were four other of my fellows with me as we began our new life in the Academy Consortium. And the universal translators given us by the humans did not successfully translate the negativity of the words the humans had for us. Now, after we have had time…
