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.
