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.

Trick or treat! Well, that was a few days ago, but yes, October is over, so time to look at the month and discuss what we all did. Honestly, it was a solid month. The current mission has a fun and interesting main story, and the undercurrent subplot has been equally as interesting, as they seem to be naturally sewing themselves together. Nearly everyone had at least one post in October, and most had at least 5 posts. We were all working on group work it seems, so no solo posts to look at this month. Hopefully November will be…

August has come and gone, and it was a strange month. We had a good amount of posts, but it didn't seem like we did at times. It was somewhat of a lull month, and yet plenty of quality in the month. We saw a new player join us as another departed, and we completed one mission and started another. Below are the awards. I wish to congratulate the winners.

» Road to El Dorado Pt. 4

Mission: Wild Wild West
Posted on Sun Nov 30th, 2025 @ 6:29pm by Lieutenant Commander Deanna Celes & Commander Jonathan Grayson & Lieutenant JG Kate Kono & Chief Petty Officer Aaron Geiger & Lieutenant JG Vienna Steele

Jon and Deanna made their way into the company of Clint Barton. The leader of this gang was not what one would consider physically imposing, but he was well built. He sat on his seat, which looked very much like a throne, wearing his black leather breeches and a leather short sleeve tunic with a scale design along the shoulder and neck. He had twin pistols on his hip, and twin rifles on either side of his seat. Deanna was scanning him and found him to have a disciplined mind, and highly tactical.

Jon was silent as he and Deanna…

Posted on Tue Nov 18th, 2025 @ 8:03pm by Lieutenant Commander Deanna Celes & Commander Jonathan Grayson & Lieutenant JG Kate Kono & Chief Petty Officer Aaron Geiger & Lieutenant JG Vienna Steele

As they reached the mountains and began the trek into the labyrinth that were the mountain passes, Deanna rode close to Jon to talk. "It would seem that our team and Sam's team were working on the same mystery from two different sides. The aliens that brought the humans here, and everything else that they might have brought with them, they apparently did this as a means of slave labor, but they were somewhat kind slave masters. An anomaly pulled them away for investigative purposes, and that anomaly ultimately killed them. Their ship is the ship that Sam went to…

Posted on Sun Nov 16th, 2025 @ 8:43pm by Captain Shran dh'Klar & Lieutenant Ashlynn Regan

Ashlynn entered the astrometrics lab post haste. She wasn't in too much of a rush, but she was eager to dissect the data she recovered from the crashed ship and to determine where the starchart originated from. She immediately set down the PADD that contained the information she needed to use before logging into every console in the room to set them up to use theme as another set of eyes; she was using them to help sift through the Federation databases she had clearance for, so she could compare the information to the chart, including the anomaly and it's…

Posted on Mon Nov 10th, 2025 @ 4:21pm by Lieutenant Commander Deanna Celes & Commander Jonathan Grayson & Lieutenant JG Kate Kono & Chief Petty Officer Aaron Geiger & Lieutenant JG Vienna Steele

With Jon, Kate, and Aaron now with her outside the livery stable, the search for the reinforcements could now get underway. "Captain said we would meet them here. I suspect they may be inside the stable getting their mounts."

Kate gave a wave to the new person and smiled, Wolfie next to her looking around with a look of wonder on its face, wondering- where's snacks.

Jon just looked at Kate and Wolfie but said nothing as the other team members should be here.

"Yeechooo!" Geiger sneezed loudly into his elbow. "Excuse me, i'm allergic to horses." He said sheepishly.…

"If you're going through hell keep going." - Winston Churchill

Shon woke, remembering the thick coating of leaves covering her and the softness of bracken in the hollow she had found. Hidden, clean, whole, maybe even born again and the world was gone. Running towards her grandfather the small feet kicking through the hot sand and jumping into the hollow of his arms, his old tan deer hide jacket covering her, hidden, clean, born again and the world was gone. Lying with Seth on their wedding night the softness of his skin on hers settling into the pillows, throwing the…

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…
