Ships Log, Lt Remae Ktell, Acting First Officer and Chief Engineering Officer
Stardate 2414.10.16

Remae found a quiet corner of the transporter room and opened a comm-channel to the computer. He had a moment to log a status report.

“First Officers Log, supplemental. We’re attempting to retrieve the away teams of our Marines that are stuck on the Garallon.”, he said before looking at the time, he had a few more moments.

“In order to location the team, we had to send a massive signal for the dish, we burnt it out but we were about to arrange a transporter sequence that will grab anyone on their pad and beam them over.”, said the FO knowing that they were beaming in the dark but it was their best shot.

“As soon as they team is over, the Spectre will have to leave the void... with us already using a tractor beam on the warp core of the Garallon, I don’t see how we can also rescue the Garallon as well, at least, not this time.”, Remae looked over at the transporter chief, he nodded, it was time.

The transporter beam energized...

== Current Mission Overview ==

After receiving reports that contact has been lost with the research station 'Echo One Zero, the [[USS Spectre]] has been sent to find out what has occured. Upon arrival, there are no signs of life, no signs of a conflict and no signs of any efforts by the crew and scientists aboard the station to leave under their own volition. It is a mystery indeed. The Spectre's remit now is to ascertain the cause of the communications loss and to attempt to explain the loss of all those aboard Echo One Zero. However, there is much more afoot here than meets the eye, and we are destined to delve deep into the realms of our own psyche, with oftimes terrifying results...

== Status Report ==

"Captain's log - Stardate 2414.10.14"

After arriving at the perimeter of the Tsinkada Void and finding no trace of the Garallon, we have now proceeded into the expanse. Tension is high in this place, a presence of some kind appearing to shadow us and interacting with the conscious minds of the crew in a manner that defies logic. Dr Riven has managed to create a psi bubble to protect us from the effects of this presense and has assembed what can only be termed, a 'telepathic relay', between those of the crew that possess such abilities, myself included, in order to bolster its efficacy.

Initial scans via our Class 2 probe have identified what appears to be a warp signature, but the size of that signature excludes the possibility that we are seeing the Garallon. It is my belief that what we are seeing is its warp core, although why it has been jetisoned I can only speculate at this moment in time.

== Ship's History ==

The [[USS Spectre]] is what is known as a Black Ops vessel, this means that when a mission calls for covert operations, particularly beyond enemy lines or in enemy space, the Spectre is the ship that is called upon. She is unique in the fleet in that she is fitted with a phased cloak in order that she may carry out these most special of missions. 

The Spectre fought the "''war without a fleet''", in the [[Federation Civil War]].

She is currently under the command of Captain [[T'Vhor]] who was promoted to Captain after her previous Captain [[Remae Ktell]] was involved in a landmine incident on the occupied planet Betazed which cruelly robbed him of his lower limbs.

First Officer T'Vhor assumes command of the Spectre.

2407.02.02 - As a direct response to information received during the Betazed retrieval mission, the Spectre is ordered into Romulan space under DOA (denial of awareness) clause, it's mission, to find and retrieve the usurped Federation President, Rondar Nell.

The USS Spectre is ordered to the Arachnid Nebula to effect rendezvous and assessment of the situation.

2414.03.10 - 'Slipstream' - Mystery, intrigue and danger lurk aboard a research station apparently devoid of life, but hiding a multi-dimensional mystery that is beyond belief itself.

== More then One? ==

Yes, there is more then one USS Spectre buzzing around, 3 in the current universe, I wanted to get 1 back from the Alt Timeline [[Utopia Planitia]] the last time we played it, circa 2402-2404, of course, we brought it in the current timeline along with all the members of Utopia Planitia, gee... confusing much? 

The other Spectres? At least one of them is a long, long way away in the Gamma Quadrant, if memory serves... the other? No idea, maybe I need to think something up? :)
