Waikiti III
USS Defiant discovered a satellite in geosynchronous orbit over Waikiti III, near Second Risa. After repairing the satellite had no apparent effect, Defiant prepared to leave the system ... until Captain zh'Halron realized that the satellite was either projecting where they couldn't see, or couldn't find what it was supposed to project onto. Digging beneath its projector aperture revealed a holographic representation of an alien city. (Gain +15 rp)

Agosaria
USS Lightning rescued the United Earth-flagged passenger liner SS Stellar Vista from the Great Plume of Agosaria, a set of plasma storms. In the process, Lightning discovered an undocumented warning beacon, apparently from the NX-class USS Columbia, claiming that her sister ship USS Enterprise had been lost to a plasma storm. (Gain +15 pp)

Handwave
While exploring Rigellian space, USS Torch discovered an M-class planet in the third world of the R-Alpha-33-M system. During exploration of the surface, Captain Veraniss was accidentally exposed to a hallucinogen; as a direct result, the planet was renamed "Handwave". (Gain +5 rp)

Teutida III
After some confusion about what turned out to be a humanoid food species, USS Enlightenment made First Contact with the Vermillion Connectivity, a civilization of cephalopod touch-telepaths.

Doctrine of Charity
An energy being pulled the Honiani cargo ship Doctrine of Charity out of warp, demanding that they "explain themselves." USS Cheron responded to the incident, and was pulled out of warp in turn by the entity, who spoke directly to the ship, treating Cheron as a misbehaving child. The entity attempted to teach Cheron and Doctrine of Charity table etiquette and to get the two ships to play nice with each other, before Captain th'Gannoth managed to convince her that these were ships, and should not be treated as her children. It turned out that she was trying to prove to an estranged partner of hers that she would be a good mother to the children he hoped to have. (Gain +5 pp)

Ergot
USS Seleya responded to reports of "monsters" lurking in a mining facility on the Caldonian colony of Ergot. The monsters turned out to be Klingons infested with a unique parasite, that they infected the Caldonians and the away team sent down by Seleya with. It was a remarkably persistent infection, with those infected constantly shedding larval forms that will seek out any method of entry to the bloodstream -- accidental ingestion, cuts, or taking the time to bore through the skin or protective material. It then reduced the intelligence of the subject while increasing the aggression and turning the host into a breeding ground for the parasite. Based on genetic sequencing, the parasite was suspected to be a bioweapon developed by the old Orion empire, and the Klingons were a descendant group of some infected populace that lived underground at Ergot. Antiparasitic medications were able to restore the intelligence of the away team, but the Caldonians and Klingons were too far gone. (Lose -10 pp).

Vitality
USS Courageous encountered a Bolian ship while surveying out past Bolian space. The Bolian freighter Vitality claimed to have come from a facility attacked by Romulans; however, the coordinates they gave were inside Romulan space. Suspicious, especially after Vitality met a Breen ship, Captain ka'Athnon took her ship out of hiding and interposed Courageous between the Bolian and Breen ships. The Breen backed down, and the captain of Vitality revealed that the Breen had forced him to lie to Courageous about the Romulans. (Gain +10 relations with Bolians)

Proud Ariwa
The passenger liner Proud Ariwa was taken over by Yrillian pirates. A passenger aboard the liner managed to engineer Proud Ariwa to emit unmintium from its bussard collectors, coating one of the pirate ships, before the pirates captured her. USS Cloudburst and USS Suffrage tracked down the pirates, defeating them; they were aided in this by one of the pirate ships being taken over by her erstwhile prisoners and turned on the pirates. (Gain +20 PP)

Tarrak
USS Tarrak attempted to make first contact with an unknown ship. Upon lowering shields to match the unknown ship, it beamed over boarding parties equipped with non-lethal weapons and impressive armor. The boarders were fended off, while the unknown ship escaped into a nearby nebula. (Gain +5 rp) Previous Year Next Year
