THE SCENARIO AND LOCATION IN THE GALAXY
It is situated 11 light years from the Klingon
border, 11 light years from D.S.9, and 14 light-years from the planet
Ogat, which houses the Klingon Naval Training Academy. This area of
space is along a major trading route between the Federation and the
Klingon Empire. The most unusual feature nearby though is the Nightfire
Nebula, an incredible crimson lit dustcloud that is 6 light-years wide
at its narrowest point. This area of space can play havoc with ships
sensors so Federation Engineers often have to recalibrate the sensors of
visiting transport vessels.
On permanent attachment is the USS West Point, a Starfleet Academy
training vessel & the USS Rage a Starfleet intelligence vessel,
Commanded by Captain Leigh Brown.
The Starbase also houses several Embassies with full complements of
staff. Of which the main two are the Klingon and Bajoran Embassies, each
of which has it’s own Ambassadorial ship.
Since the arrival of The Inquisitor in
2002 the Starbase now seems to home to several species not of the Star
Trek Universe, apparently he has opened an interdimmesional rift within
the Nebula. we now find ourselves with Embassies from Centauri Prime,
Narn and Minbar, along with a contingent of Rangers, Psi-core operatives
and Earthforce personnel.
