In Earth's Norse mythology a Valkyrie was a symbol of fairness and honor; a bright shining example in the cold and dark of the north. She was a supernatural being that flew over land and sea searching and protecting those she cared for. A Valkyrie was charged with finding those warriors worthy to enter the halls of Valhalla.
Are you worthy?
Come, test your metal aboard the USS Valkyrie.
There year is 2401
A new century has dawned. So much has happened in the last 25 years. The Dominion War ended, The USS Voyager returned from the Delta Quadrant, and the Romulan Empire opened up to the Federation. With the rebuilding of the fleet, the new technology brought back by Voyager, and the stabilization of the region a new age has dawned for the Federation.
The Borg are a fading threat, Romulan relations are still improving, the Cardassians are still causing trouble and full of bluster, and the Klingons are, well..., still Klingons. With Federation's return to its core mission of exploration, they are once again answering the call of the unknown. As Picard once said, “...the unknown is what brings us out here”.
One of the newest ships brought into service is the USS Valkyrie, a Vesta class starship equipped with state of the art technologies, including a Quantum Slipstream Drive (QSD). With a QSD at their disposal the unknown has opened up like never before.
About the Valkyrie...
- We operate in a Nemesis timeline. Meaning we do not follow the events set in motion by the Abrams Star Trek. In other words - Romulus is still intact. This means we operate with most of the technology from Picard but get to write our own path, unbound by the limits set forth in the Abrams movies (Kelvin timeline), DSC, PIC, PRO, LD, or SNW.
- We are an 18+, Nova platform simulation with a RPG rating of:

[USS Valkyrie]
After the other team beamed away Garath stepped up onto the pad. Even though using his blade would be foolish considering the enemy they could be facing his Kur'leth was secured to his back...just in case.
Willow was next to step onto the pad. She had her rebreather and safety goggles, as she wasn't sure what they would find on the station. She also had her tool belt, just in case they needed to get into or out of somewhere. And, for safety, she had her hypospanner in her hand. While she was outwardly calm, her hair was…

[USS Valkyrie]
As her team stepped up on the transporter Sizia checked her weapon as she took her spot on the pad next to a nervous looking medic. "First away team?"
"No. First potential combat situation against a mutated horde that has, has no antidote."
Taggart stepped upon the transporter pad, ready to beam down.
"No antidote to be found as to becoming a Defiled?" the redheaded security officer shook his head. "Just something that we are not wanting to have happen. Being infected by that."
"And that is why we aren't going to do anything stupid," Maggie added. "And…

[Bridge]
Hobbes's estimate was spot on, and they dropped from warp near the planet. The blue supergiant filled the viewscreen, and in the middle, the still smoldering station. Baas sat forward in his seat. "What a mess. Alright, let's see what we are working with. Full scans and hail the station. Hopefully someone down there restored communications."
Magdalena stared at the image on the viewscreen for a few seconds. It looked like a battle zone. Then she began to scan the area for intact ships, shuttles, or escape pods. And any signs of survivors. "Nothing intact around the station. Just...destruction."…

The first thing Maggie did when attempting to check out her office was to contact operations to find out why her access code didn't work. It took several tries--and a computer reset--for her to finally get in.
At least the young ensign seemed competent, even though her hair kept changing color. Maggie found it fascinating. It seemed to change based on the ensign's mood. But she didn't feel it appropriate to ask about it. So, she simply said thank you and let the ensign go back to her duties.
Then she took a few minutes to rearrange the desk to…

Ryan Kellerman strode through the doors of Sickbay and the silence swallowed him completely. The lights were dialed low, a soft amber glow instead of the annoying clinical glare he'd brace himself for. It was as if the place wanted to trick him into forgetting it was full of scanners, hyposprays, and cold biobeds. The air carried a hint of citrus-based antiseptic.
He paused just past the threshold, listening. There was no bustle, no voices, only the occasional beep of an idle monitor. For the first time since boarding, he wasn't surrounded by chatter or orders or the constant shuffle…
