Cmdr JFarrington

Okay..gotta question on the crew makeup. If the sim is a mercenary on-the-edge group, why are there traditional posts on the roster?

Congratulations to Rosetto, who graduated from the Tuesday Academy, April 27! Welcome aboard, Ensign Rosetto!

USS Avenger (Miranda-class frigate) is in month 12 of a 36 month deep space patrol. Game Master (GM) - TMir Game Master (GM) - Cmdr JFarrington Mission Commanding Officer (MCO) - TMir Mission Executive Officer (MXO) - Capt Calestorm Helm/Operations Officer (HOPS) - Taev Chief Engineer (CENG) - rosetto Assistant Engineer (AENG) - Phil O'Donnell Chief Science Officer (CSCI) - Surran Assistant Science Officer (ASCI) - Asteria Jaxa Chief Security Officer (CSEC) - Revon CMO - TKAR 100427.txt

Well, Manticore sims in the year 2369, so that would put it TNG Season Six. Maybe the Wiki needs a change? ::looks to A9:::

=/\= USS MANTICORE BRIEFING #606, STARDATE 51004.26 =/\= ** HAPPY 12th BIRTHDAY, MANTICORE ** The Manticore is in stationary orbit near Starbase 801. The spread of an illness that is showing as molecular changes to the skin is affecting an ever-growing portion of the crew as well as an entire lab of scientists back on Cold Station 9. The Carthage has quarantined itself as well as CS9. The Medical and Science teams are working diligently to find an understanding of the disease and a cure. They now feel that irradiating the ship and using the transporter with customized biofilters in place will stop the progression of the disease. kyle_mele -> ::in stasis, blissfully foating:: Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::still in sickbay:: Admiral Atragon-9 -> <TBS was one hour> Eva Jaz -> :lying still in her stasis pod , mind in utter oblivion :: Cmdr JFarrington -> :: dramatic opening scene with Jami in a fetal position in a corner of sick bay::: Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::still dealing with a thousand and one things at once:: LtCdrFaldek -> ::still in a locked down Holodeck 2:: Keb -> ::leaning on her console with her head down on the bridge:: kyle_mele -> ::which is stasis-talk for floating, of course:: Cmdr JFarrington -> ::having gone into biological stasis - put there by the invading virus:::: Garnoopy -> ::at his station, on the bridge:: Admiral Atragon-9 -> ::pacing the Bridge with his left hand jammed in his pocket, trying to ignore the terrible itching there:: Garnoopy -> ::a little itchy, but otherwise doing ok:: Garnoopy -> ::ignoring it, tapping his panels:: Eva Jaz -> Nurse B> :: collapsed on the floor , semi-conscious , tongue flickering every minute or so , bulging reptilian eyes staring into nothingness : Cmdr JFarrington -> Lt Fabio> :::long stretch and a partial yawn, which he almost hides from the rest of the crew::: Cmdr JFarrington -> Lt Fabio> ::straightens up, his eyes on the OPS console::: Jaiysa t'Tamarak -> ::really getting a little unnerved by the people around her right now:: precip -> ::walks down the corridor...pondering if anyone else on the deck has caught the disease:: LtCdrFaldek -> ::follows precip:: Vilanne -> ::in sickbay, waiting on the transporter chief to finish coordinating with science and the other doctors with the specs for beaming everyone away and back through biofilters, no matter how painful it'll be:: MC_Escher -> +Garn+ Science to Engineering Keb -> ::turns head slightly:: This is the longest shift ever... ::to Fabio:: Cmdr JFarrington -> Lt Fabio> ::absently scratching his left wrist::: Cmdr JFarrington -> Lt Fabio> ::nod:: You got that right, Commander.

I hope he has room in the buffer for all of us. LtCdrFaldek -> ::follows again:: Keb -> Yeah. Read some paper on it when I was working at the lab. They say lions do it when they need to be alert.

Garnoopy -> +Escher+ I sent you all the specifications for what I have. Admiral Atragon-9 -> +VIL+ Agreed. By the way, some of us on the Bridge are starting to show symptoms. I don't think there's any benefit from trying to isolate us from others up here, anymore. Keb -> Yup. Lions. Pretty critters, aren't they? ::yawns:: Garnoopy -> +Escher+ I'm stuck on the bridge, I'm unable to help you in reality. Garnoopy -> ::looks at A9:: MC_Escher -> +Garn+ Roger. I'll continue your work here. Escher out. Garnoopy -> Admiral, quarantine procedures are for a reason... allowing a virus to pass between sections and through biofilters increases the chances of mutation.

Welcome, Surran - glad you found us! And an interesting read it was! Long and involved. As T'Mir said, don't make too many decisions before you get your feet wet. A lot of how you fashion your character will depend on what advanced simulation you choose when you graduate from the academy. Live long, prosper, and enjoy!

Hey, Tilli! Glad you're back!

Happy Birthday to all! No wonder you're taking the night off, T'P - we coulda had a party! Maybe we still will.... hm.....

Survival The creature remembered nothing of its birth or its coming, nor did it reason what would happen after. Every decision, every purpose was aimed at existence - nourishment, protection, and procreation. The desire to grow, to bond, to multiply was instinctive, hard-wired into its framework, given to it by the one from which it spawned. And it had found a suitable host, one that provided for its every need... with one exception. The host was not sustainable in its present state. Every foray was either blocked or the area quickly degenerated, forcing the creature to search deeper and deeper to sustain itself, to feed, to multiply and survive. Slowly, deliberately, it wound its way to the inner sanctum of the host, entering the basic cellular structure, puncturing the nucleus and weaving through the DNA. Then a strange thing happened. Somewhere, somehow it had been taught to create rather than destroy. Instead of running rampant, as previous incarnations had, it changed the host structure so the host could sustain it indefinitely. In theory. But as often happens between theory and practice, something was going drastically wrong. Jami Farrington lay curled up in a corner of sick bay, her skin slowly changing to greenish scales, her hair replaced with a gooey secretion, her power of speech nearly gone, and her ability to reason and function, as the human she used to be, almost nonexistent. The microorganism that had invaded her body accomplished its purpose, but the theory did not hold up in practice. The changes to her human DNA were so drastic that her body over-compensated and she had lapsed into a coma. And yet there was another intelligence at work. A failsafe ingeniously built into the microorganism's system prevented further deterioration. Though it appeared that she was dying, Jami had entered a form of biological stasis. The organism was waiting, biding its time until the host recovered... or until it could jump to another host and try again. Biding its time. Waiting. Having but one purpose. Survival.

Manticore Mission Update for 1.11.2010 Faldek and Keb settle into their married quarters. Trius Peers beams a mysterious something into Garn’s office. Precip, walking with a brace, returns to duty to discuss the Oppo mission with his security officers. T’Prise and Escher read the book they “borrowed” from the Daystrom Institute, hoping it will contain information on Dr. Kosinski’s Pergrination Project. T’Prise insists she is fully recovered from being integrated to the Oppo core. Sick bay is busy with doctors returning to work, new crewman Trius Peers having problems adjusting to his symbiont and Turris Morran presenting a requisition from Admiral Locke for piece of sensitive equipment. Upon refusing to release the equipment without approval from the Chief Medical Officer, she is ordered to the brig by… Faldek? Admiral Atragon has decided to take Consul General Yendis’s offer and become Chief of Special Operations while retaining command of Manticore. It also means that Manticore will be openly assigned to special operations and no longer designated as a “tug,” which, in the words of Captain Sovak, “will boost the morale of the crew.” TBS is one day. Manticore is presently en route to Maturin Station for upgrades and the dossier on Special Operations.

Mission Update for 4.12.2010 Still in orbit of Starbase 801, the intrepid crew of Manticore is under complete quarantine as they try to determine a cure for the strange transformation that is taking place among them. Kansas Kenickie, Matt McFly, Eva Jaz, Jami Farrington, and Kyle Mele, along with NPCs Dukath, Cal, and Nurse Belamy, are slowly changing. They have retained their ability to talk, reason, and function as sentient beings, but their behavior and appearance is reptilian/amphibian - itchy, somewhat scaly skin, flicking tongues, webbed fingers, bent posture, and lumbering gait as well as a desire for warm, humid places. So far the only unaffected personnel are Lt Morran, Cptn Sovak, T'Prise, Sir'al, and Jaiysa t'Tamarak. For some strange reason, Romulans, Vulcans, and Bolians are unaffected. Lt Morran - a Human/El-Aurian - is the lone conundrum. It is believed that they contracted the problem at Cold Station 9, which is now under lock-down and surveillance by Captain N'Diri and the USS Carthage. At present, medical is working on isolating a possible marker that seems to have prevented certain races from succumbing to the disease. They are also researching the actual cause. Engineering Chief Garnoopy and Engineer Hilee worked round the clock on atmospheric scrubbing and regulating biofilters to contain the contamination. The holographic Gene Mark IV Computational Program that Lt Morran brought from Cold Station 9 has given the science department a serum, but its effects remain unknown. Meanwhile, Security Chief Precip and Security Officer Faldek examine holodeck 2 in an ongoing investigation. TBS was 2 hours. A level 5 quarantine is in effect. All decks and environmental systems are locked down restricting movement in all areas. The Bridge and engineering are off-limits to any transporter signal.

Who'd a thunk? To preserve the integrity of this site and out of respect for those who are not of religious leaning, I've left the specifics out. However, if you're really, really into this I'm sure Google will get you there. Oh, and the "Trek Night" was on January 30, so you missed it this year. Anyway, I found this site while looking for something else:

=/\= USS MANTICORE BRIEFING #604, STARDATE 51004.12 =/\= The Manticore is in stationary orbit near Starbase 801. The spread of an illness that is showing as molecular changes to the skin has affected at least seven onboard as well as an entire lab of scientists back on Cold Station 9.
