The Captain: Jason Daniel Aubrey, a native of 20th Century Earth who is abducted at the age of ten by a rogue Section 31 agent. Aubrey is a man out of time and a possible threat to the future of the Federation.

His ship: A refurbished Excelsior class battlecruiser, reborn to fight the Dominion.

His crew: An assortment of the best and, sometimes, the worst Starfleet has to offer.

Their adventures: The Dominion War and beyond in the universe of United Trek...

Not every ship can be the biggest or most advanced. Not every crew can be the best and brightest.

With the outbreak of the Dominion War Starfleet faces a superior force, so every able-bodied officer and crewman is called upon to do their duty in service of the Federation, whilst dredging mothballed starships up to fulfil various support roles. The Constellation-Class U.S.S. Orion NCC-3013 is one such ship; retired from active duty fifty years ago, she now serves behind the front lines, transporting troops, searching for survivors, recovering salvage, hauling essential supplies.

Her crew are made up of rookies, reprobates and retirees, including: her thirty-one year old Captain, apathetic First Officer, Ops Manager with a chip on his shoulder, crotchety Ship’s Surgeon, demoted Orion Security Chief, preppy Chief Engineer, over-worked Counsellor, ill-prepared Conn Officer, and Chief of the Boat who was in the Maquis.

Recent history has not been kind to the Cardassian people. Following protracted wars with the Federation and now the Klingon Empire, the Cardassian Union has been absorbed into the Dominion with promises of greater glory than Cardassia has ever known.

Given this tumultuous history and tightly-controlled society, it is easy to look across the border and suppose the support of this alliance--and the attitudes that led Cardassia into this situation to be unanimous. But there is more to the Cardassian people than most outsiders have ever suspected.

And in the wary eyes of the Cardassians, there is more to the Federation than most of its own citizens have ever suspected. Will the Cardassian Union's darkest hour eventually lead to its finest hour?

Explore this question through the eyes of the Cardassians themselves, and those in the Federation with whom they cross paths.

Somewhere among the hundreds of thousands of parallel universes is one where the worlds of Cardassia have fallen to an implacable enemy on a jihad to destroy everything they hold sacred.

Some seek refuge among the stars, while others fight the enemy at home--and in the depths of their souls.

Driven by twisted forces of immeasurable magnitude, the Bajorans have invaded. Will the spirit of Cardassia remain unbroken?

25th Century

Spanning the generations of Starfleet history, the one tennant that ties them all together are the various philosophies of command. The power of starship captains affect the consequences of the future, and so that kind of power must be used with caution and pause.

From the wild frontier of the formative years to the refined maturity of a post-Dominion War fleet, the philosophy of command remains as constant as the speed of light.

Starbase 107 (SB107) is about a Regula class space station, commanded by Rear Admiral Cody Buchanan, located in the Alpha Quadrant between Inferna Prime and Memory Alpha. The USS Conservancy, a Thoreau class starship that is similar to the Nebula class but with one centrally placed nacelle underneath the secondary hull, is commanded by Captain Daniel Josiah Barrett and is stationed at SB107.

This episodic series will have adventures at the space station, as well as in space.
