Editing USS Soval

{{USS Soval Data Box}}

The [[USS Soval]] is a refitted [[Galaxy Class]] [[starship]] currently serving in the [[Starfleet]] of the [[United Federation of Planets]]. The ship was first launched in 2384 under the name [[USS Dakota]]. 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]] like, among many, the [[USS Starfire]] and [[USS Rosenante]] before it. 

In late 2414, the crew contracted a virus when on an away mission on Anohesia. 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.  

Meanwhile, the [[USS Starfire]] is recalled from its mission after it is discovered there is a building defect that threaten the safety of the crew. 

It is decided by [[Vice Admiral Beckett]] to merge the two crews. [[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]].
