You are now a native of the Star Trek universe and bound to its laws. Let's get to work!

Choose Your Adventure! (Roll 1 to 14!)

1. Away Mission!

You've just beamed down to an unexplored planet. Is it inhabited? Is it habitable? Just be sure not to break the Prime Directive

2. First Contact!

You are about to make the first, official contact with an alien civilization. Whether you are seeking them out or they are seeking you out, try to make a good impression.

3. Battle Stations!

All hands to battle stations! Shields are at full power and weapon systems are prepared for combat.

4. Red Alert!

Something has gone wrong! It is an all out emergency but what is it? Has something happened in engineering to cause radiation to flood the ship? Are you being boarded? Either way, hope you survive the experience!

5. Shore Leave!

Exactly like it says on the tin. Maybe you're going to Risa. It's time to settle down with a nice drink and relax. If you're alone, try picking up Horga'hn.

6. Holodeck!

You have some free time. All of time. All of space. All of everything. What's your program of choice?

7. Lost in space!

Something terrible has happened. Maybe you're in a shuttle that's lost most of its power and now you're adrift. Maybe said shuttle crashed landed on an unknown planet. Whatever it was, you now find yourself lot. Let's hope you know how to send out an intergalactic SOS!

8. You Do Need an Education!

You've just enrolled in the Starfleet Academy. Located in San Francisco, this educational facility preps all that have been accepted. It's a lot of work. Study. Study. Study. However, that doesn't mean there isn't time for the occasional hijinx.

9. Stations in Space!

It is a station in space. Space is all around. Maybe you're a resident or it is a temporary point until something better comes your way. Maybe you live on board a vessel that is about to dock. Maybe it'll be a nice change of pace.

10. Wild Card!

Pick whichever option you like best. I bet you thought this would be at the end. Well, it's not.

11. Tribbletastic!

The terrific thing about tribbles is that tribbles are terrific things. Their insides are made of stuff, their bottoms are made of the fluff. But the most terrific thing about tribbles is that tribbles are everywhere. It would be a tribble shame if they got into any important systems.

12. Q-who?

You're a member of a nearly omnipotent, immortal race of beings who have mastered the ability of time-travel and transformation. Maybe you're one of the 'almost respectable' ones. Maybe you're a trouble-maker. Either way, what could go wrong?

13. SmörgåsBORG.

They are the Borg. Resistance is futile. Either you're facing a boarding party or you and your crew accidentally ran into them. Maybe you'll be assimilated and need to be rescued. They're a bit like zombies, only they don't want to eat you. They just want to assimilate you and add your distinct uniqueness to themselves.

14. Mirror mirror on the wall...

~~Yo dawg! We heard you like AUs so we put an AU in your AU so you can AU while you AU~~. It's a mirror universe where the bad guys have goatees and the blondes are now brunette. You might recognize the face but they may not be the same person you know.

[ Familiar with all timelines and series. Assumed CR is a-ok. ]

[ Already have an AU post for him that has some Star Trek ideas! Familiar with all the classics (TOS / TNG / DS9 / VOY) and have watched all of Picard and some of Disco, SNW, and Lower Decks. ]

[Willing to go with whatever.]

[Albion as a kingdom ruling a few small planets, which has only relatively recently started reaching out officially to other races/factions. Logan is sent as a diplomat/explorer to get a better sense of the universe on Albion's behalf, with an ulterior quest of investigating if the Darkness is Albion-specific. Potentially sticking as closely to the Federation as possible without being an official member. Happy to throw ideas around/change details.]

( anything goes! )

Stiles has gotten something of a Reputation(TM) in his time growing up on Starbase Beacon. Not for being a bad kid or a bad student; he's actually quite smart and pretty in-line with Starfleet ideals. You can probably thank his dad, who was the chief security officer of the Beacon, for that. No, he's just very good at getting into Situations. Kidnapped multiple times, technically died once while being sacrificed to a sacred tree on a nearby planet, possession by a malevolent millennia-old entity that used his body to kill people, and there was that time almost everyone forgot he existed while he was trapped in another dimension.

But who here doesn't have a Past, right? That's practically the one thing that defines this entire generation of Starfleet Academy students. And so far, Stiles has been doing pretty good, aside from some reports of snarking at professors and shit. Kids stuff. So it's kind of a surprise when he suddenly "freaks out" on Caleb Mir - a fellow student he's previously gotten along fine with - and ends up in a physical fight that results in multiple broken bones on both sides.

He took a trip to medical before being called into the Chancellor's office, so aside from lingering soreness from rapid healing, he's not doing too bad. Aside from, uh, everything else about this situation. "If I just say it won't happen again, can we pretend this didn't happen?"

(Any series/timeline is fine.)

[[Has the holodeck produced a living hologram of a Dixon Hill character again? Or is this cold blooded gangster a Vulcan entrepreneur with ties to the other side of the Neutral Zone? Lord knows, but nothing goes together like Star Trek and noir. Down for all props except Battle Stations and Academy. Info here!]]

[ info. would definitely be in security. ]

((Jack is CMO on a ship or a station, veteran of any one of the Federation's many wars/skirmishes that cost him his leg. But he's a capable and amicable doctor. Come bother him in sickbay or anywhere else))
