Primer

Nearly ten years have passed since the end of the Dominion War. The end of that conflict gave birth to an unprecedented level of cooperation between the Alpha and Gamma Quadrant, with the former adversaries joining together to build Camelot. A "shining beacon" in space, Camelot's mission is creation of a permanent base for the Alpha Quadrant powers in the Gamma Quadrant.

 

As Camelot began to take shape, the dream of peace seemed a far and distant reality. With the Founders in glorious isolation, as Odo attempts to save his people from themselves, the Dominion has fallen into chaos. The Vorta Council rules in proxy, but without the metaphorical ‘white’ of the Founders’ presence, their hold on power is tenuous. Meanwhile, in the dark heart of the Gamma Quadrant an ancient enemy of the Founders rose once more to challenge their old rivals, the Scorpiads.

 

A race of ancient arachnids, the Scorpiads fought an ancient war with the Dominion nearly 10,000 years before that ended in stalemate. Weakened by war, internal dissensions the Scorpiads moved quickly to avenge old grudges. Conflict between the two empires quickly ensued. Initially limited to Dominion territory, the Alpha Quadrant powers were plunged abruptly into the conflict when the Scorpiad and their lieutenants the powerful, insectoid Eratians and the cunning, nightstalking Al-Ucard seized the wormhole.

 

The conflict culminated in the epic Battle of the Wormhole. The battle involved the largest number of vessels ever in a Federation involved battle including forces from the Dominion, separatist Hundred alongside forces from both the Gamma and Alpha Quadrant fleets of the Klingon and Romulan Empires and Starfleet pitted against the combined forces of the Scorpiads, Al-Ucard and Eratian main fleets. The result was a decisive victory for the Federation and her allies, returning access to the Alpha Quadrant and sending the Scorpiads into retreat.

 

In the wake of their defeat, and mounting pressure from within the Empire, the Federation brokered a cease-fire between the sides allowing the creation of an uneasy truce, inviting the Scorpiad to join the Camelot mission. The year’s long war has left both powers weakened and venerable: the Scorpiads face a rebellion from their once loyal lieutenants; while the Vorta Council struggles to keep order as group of changelings known as the Hundred challenge their authority with the intent to remake the Dominion on their own terms.

 

As the sun sets on these ancient Empires and the haze of twilight fills the Quadrant, Camelot and her crew strive to forge a lasting peace in the Quadrant.
