Welcome onboard the USS Wayfarer!
It's 2376, one year after the Dominion War. Now Starfleet can get back to what it was originally formed to do Exploration.
With the loss of many ships and officers in one of the bloodiest wars that the United Federation of Planets had ever seen, many younger officers find themselves advancing through the ranks quicker than expected. One such officer, Akeno Misaki didn't expect to be taking on the rank of Captain at her age. The rookie Captain, now in command of the USS Wayfarer is looking forward to finally getting back to exploring the depths of space.
Step off the transporter pad, or walk down the ramp of your shuttle and you prepare to engage on a unique Star Trek RPG experience, one filled with advanture, mystery and even we don't know whats around the next nebula! These are the voyager of the Starship Wayfarer!
The USS Wayfarer is a PG-13 Star Trek Simulation. This means you have to be over the age of 13 to join this roleplaying game.

So, today is the 22nd Anniversary of Independence Fleet, our little home away from home!
This year we as CO's were asked to produce a 'Movie Poster' for a little bit of a fun contest. I decided to make a poster for our current mission 'Cracks in the Mirror' and I enjoyed making it!
Well, it seems as if we won 1st place! Another win for the Wayfarer!
Here's the poster and the comments the judges made:
“I’m impressed by the technical skill and originality that went into this poster.”
“If you’re familiar with Anime movie posters, this is spot…

“Warrant Officer 2 grade Tezasaurez, sir. There seems to have been a hick-up with the replicator management module in the cargo bay two sir.” Stated a very nervous crewman 1st class.
Tezasaurez frowned, which on a Gorn tends to be extremely frightening. “Whatz dozs youz meanz crewman?”
The young crewman swallowed hard. “I was manning the overwatch panel for all the environmental and secondary and tertiary units on the ship, and an alarm chirped that the replicator management unit had been adjusted by an unauthorized individual.”
Just as the young crewman was finishing up his explanation Lieutenant Rommel walked by.…

It was warm. That's all that mattered. The strange piece of equipment that stood in Cargo Bay two was a perfect place to take a nap. It stood humming to itself in a corner away from the other containers, two long tubes suspended above a rectangular box like base. A strange control panel of switches and dials sat in the middle and the tubes glowed a low hue of red and emitted slight warmth. You could lie on the top of these tunes and dangle your arms and either side of utter lazily whilst laid on your belly.

The Wayfarer entered orbit of the Lolrunians planet. The Intrepid Class starship was tiny compared to the huge Sphere of blue, greens, purples and browns below. Akeno stood up from her chair and looked over to Shiro.
"OK then." Akeno said. "Shiro, Raelyn, let's get ready to beam down." She was excited to be opening these negotiations.
"Aye, Captain," Mashiro nodded as she stood up to follow Akeno to the turbolift.
Raelyn followed the two other officers of the command triad into the lift. She spoke to Akeno and Shiro quietly. "Is it wise to have all three of us…

Curious about the unexpected shuttle, Akeno and Mashiro made their way down to the shuttlebay. As they stood side by side in the turbolift, Akeno turned to Shiro. "Any ideas?"
"If Starfleet's already sending out a shuttle before we even get the chance to speak with the Lolrunians, my first instinct is that they don't trust us to do our jobs," Mashiro sighed. "I can't imagine why, though, especially seeing as the Admiral who recruited us for this assignment in the first place had nothing but praise for how we handled the situation in the Tyra system..."
"Well, lets wait…

The Wayfarer dropped out of warp on the edge of the triangle. The Lolrunians's star system was just inside, on the Federations side. Starfleet was counting on them to complete these talks and establish the mining rights to their dilithium.
Akeno crosser one leg over the other as she smiled at the space ahead of them. "Go ahead Luna, take us in. But let's keep our eyes and ears open. This is a contested part of space remember."
"Aye, Captain. [Here goes, well, everything]" Luna thought the last sentence, as her hands danced across the holokeys.
Akeno tapped her comm…

Counselor Drake watched as Patra as she stared out the observation window, looking down at Earth. "Have you been back down to see your family since your grandfather brought you here?" inquired Drake. Patra frowned, knowing counselor Drake couldn't see her. Drake waited a minute, with no response coming, she made a simple statement "You know you are free to come and go as you please from the station to Earth."
Patra snorted, still looking out the viewport, "Have you forgotten Commander I am unable to use transporters, and getting a shuttle to Earth and back can be a hassle,…

Patra’s family, once they had recovered from the shock of finding out Patra was alive, rejoiced. There were many questions, that Patra tried, and mostly succeeded, deflecting. She told her family she could not discuss things do to operational security. She also, even though she knew it was not true, said that Starfleet Mortuary Affairs must have made a mistake, after all Starfleet was still working on trying to identify all the personnel who had been lost in the fleet battles of the Dominion War. Her family finally settled down and they all went out to celebrate her return. She…

Patra sat int the shuttle craft taking her to Earth. She had just been recently discharged from the small commune of T’Shen. The Vulcan healers had been requested to “put” her back together. Her mind and body had been shattered when she took an experimental shuttle craft and fled from the Tyra system. She had secret orders to recover two items for Starfleet Special Projects and Operations; which she was loosely associated with. The first was the to a hologram Kagen that had been implanted unto the USS Atlantic. Once she accomplished that she was to take the program, in…

"Following an attempted mutiny orchestrated by the Jem'Hadar Second, Galag'Rin, Captain Misaki remains in sickbay in critical condition. Doctor Johnson reports that her vital signs have stabilized and she no longer requires the assistance of life support, but she will need at least a couple more days to fully recover from her injuries.

Having been confined to the medical bay of Starbase 12, Patra figured she had best write a message to Opa and Schwesterlein to let them know she was fine. They were both on her notification list should she become injured or deceased in the line of duty.
Dear Opa and Gertrude,
I hope this finds you both doing well. I want to first assure you that I am fine. Yes, I was injured, rather seriously, in a conflict. I am unsure if it is classified at this time so I will not discuss the conflict. I suffered both nerve damage…
