{{USS Soval Data Box}}

The USS Dakota is a refitted [[Galaxy Class]] [[starship]] currently renamed [[USS Soval]] and serving in the [[Starfleet]] of the [[United Federation of Planets]]. The ship was first launched in 2384. In 2412, the ship was removed for an extensive retrofit of its system. After two years, the ship returned to service in 2414 and was assigned to the 781th Squadron assigned to [[Starbase 989]] to continue exploration of [[sector 6309]].

In late 2414, during a mission on Anohesia for a geological survey, they contracted a virus. The virus laying dormant and hiding like biological materials in its victims, it was undetected by the transporter bio-filter. Not being equipped to cure the virus, the Anohesian virus spread rapidly to the entire crew, killing many in a matter of hours. Among the most important casualties were the Captain, Chief Engineer and Chief of Security. With a suffering crew, and a dead CO, FO [[Syuvik]] order the ship back to [[Starbase 989]].  The casualty report was high. 83 crew members dead, 312 officers in a critical states, and close to another 200 quarantined. A rare few hundred seemed to be immune, suffering no symptom despite having been in contact with the virus.  

It is decided by [[Vice Admiral Beckett]] to merge the surviving crew of the USS Dakota with the crew of the [[USS Starfre]]. [[Syuvik]] is promoted to CO. [[Sanok]] the CO of the USS Starfire, inform the admiralty that he wants to be removed from a command position. He is demoted to lieutenant commander and assigned as Chief of Security and Third Officer. Lieutenant Commander [[Steven Wade Matrix]] is promoted to commander and assigned as FO. In order to symbolize that the USS Starfire's crew is welcomed, the ship change name and become the [[USS Soval]], in honor of Ambassador Soval, one of the Founding Fathers of the [[United Federation of Planets]].  

However, the situation never returned to normal for the crew of the USS Dakota. Many who have survived suffered from post-traumatic syndrome and were unable to carry their duty on the USS Soval. Others preferred not to be remembered what happened and requested a mutation. As the original crew from the USS Dakota diminished, the USS Soval is become more and more a distinct ship with a distinct crew.
